DIVORCES ME OIL!
LOS ANGELES, June 12.—“Divorce
in Java takes half an hour and costs
25 cents,” says Capt. P. J. De Rooy,
Dutch sea captain now in Los Angeles
who has sailed and explored among!
the East Indies for many years.
"But often,’ he adds,” “25 cents is j
hard to get, so the economical hus-,
band simply kills the.undesirable wife.
Nothing will be said, no questions will
be asked^ all the fuming and scandal
of the American divorce suit will be |
avoided and the husband’s other wives
will take notice and swear that in the
future they will be the most model and
exemplary of helpmates.
“A man can have all the wives he
wants. The first wife is the boss, and
is responsible for the smoothworking
of the domestic machinery. If another
wife is rebellious, she is disposed of,:
or is removed to a separate home of!
her own. The man has everything his
own way.
"To me, the simple life of Java is
infinitely more desirable than the hec
tic whirl of American and European
existence. When I retire at the age of j
fifty, I will not go to Holland, Los An
geles or Paris. A home among the
head hunters of New Guinea, or the
pearl fishermen of the Java coast will
be my refuge. There life has been re
duced to the fundamentals of birth,
death and marriage.”

OTYLES in furniture change with
^ the times, just as do styles in dress.
That is whv many ingenious housewives
rely on Fuller Enamels and Decoret
Varnish Stains to bring their furniture
up to date.
For refinishing the surface in imitation of natural
wood such as Dark Oak, Rosewood and Walnut,
use Decoret Varnish Stains. The newest colors
when painted furniture is in vogue will be found in
Fuller’s Art Decorative Enamel. Then there is
Silkenwhite Gloss or Semi-Gloss Enamel, which
produces an intense white or olden ivory finish for
the woodwork of the room.
Ask for Fuller Paints and Varnishes, name, at
the local dealer’s. Or write our Service Department
for advice. Our “Home Service” booklet is free.
Whatever your painting need, W. P. Fuller & Co.
makes a paint for the purpose.
