owred In Magistrate Baker's, court today
I accompanied by their parents ami nuked
to be "sent away" for three month at leant
Their wish was Brantcd. They were com
Irnltted to the House of Correction. One
,lshed to ho cured In order to Ret married .
line others to fit themselves for military
'Mrvlce. If possible.
The stories told by the aged parents and
by tho nddlcts themselves made n visible
impression on nearly all In the court. They
aid it was an easy matter to pet drugs
In this city, that temptation beset Hiem
on every hand, and that even n hospital
would not answer their purpose bemuse
drugs could He obtained In such an Insti
tution They were John Ellce, twenty-one years
eld, of 1205 Jtooro street ; Angelo Patltuerl.
twenty-four, of 1124 Catharine Rtreet. and
Emero Dadamo, twenty-six years old, of
U33 South Carlisle street.
Ellce, who Is a barber, was accompanied
fcy his mother. With tears In her eyes
Ighe told the magistrate that her1 son had
fallen In lovo wltha good girl, but that he
realized he could" not get married until
ihe was sure the grip of the drug habit wns
, broken.
All three said they had taken drugs since
'they were children. They had tried to re
form, they said, but found It hard owing to
the ease with which drugs could be obtained.
"Put us away somewhero where we can't
get 'coke,'" they pleaded. "Its not only
'for our own sakes, but nlso for our parents.
We want to be real men This may be a
food way to start."
One of tho three said that since the
country was at war this was no tlmo to
show moral weakness. 'I feel that three
months will cure me." ho said.
The men appeared In their old clothes
11 ready to "go up." When Magistrate
Baker granted their wish they thanked him
heartily and kissed their parents good-by.
WIFE PULLED HIS HAIR,
PASTOR SAYS IN SUIT
But the Rev. John Edwin Trip
Iett Drank Whisky, Accord
ing to Testimony
The pastor's wife pulled hl I-alr whilp
he was saying his prayers, nnd he drank
hlsk and allowed his mother to keep a
flock of chickens in the cellar, according to
testimony i Ivcn today In tho divorce suit
of the Ilev John Kdwln Triplett. of the
First Presbyterian Church. Woodbury, N".
J., against his wife Dorothy
Hearing of the long-drawn-out suit, which
In a ear has resulted In three Indictments
for conspiracy, wns continued today before
Master in Chancery Joline. at Camden. The
clcrginnn accuses his wife of desertion and
ttatuton offenses.
How the long-standing family quarrel
caused a split In the congregation was
described today by witnesses, who testified
to Mrs Trlplett's c.xenui'.nry conduct.
Edgar S Kromcr, Philadelphia banker,
who lles across the street from tho- Trip
lett home, said that nn .one of scctal
occasions he and former State Senator
J Bojd Avl were called in to pacify the
couple Mis Trlple't said that the hus
band had been abusing her.
"Mr Triplett," said Kromer, "replied that
he had to uso forco because she had
Crabbed his hair while he wns saying his
prajcrs "
Kromer declared that he had Riven the
clergyman two half-pint bottles of whisky
and a quart of wine.
"When 1 suggested that he drink hot
lemonade to euro u cold, lie suggeste 1 that
It ought to have a 'stick' in It," said
Kromer "So I gave him n half-pint. A
week later ho said the cold still was very
bad So I gave him another half-pint.
Christmas I gne him a quart of wine."
Kromer who wns treasurer and trustee
of the church, "hut not now." related the
Incident of the chickens. This occuired. he
said, in October. 1913. shortly after the
clergyman's father died. The flev. Mr
Triplett s mother paid a long visit at the
Triplett home, bring a flock of chickens
lth her The pastor's wife complained to
Kromer about the chickens In the cellar
and the fact that tho servant would take
orders from no one but her mother-in-law
The clergyman and his lawyer, i;x-Judge
Ptarr of Woodbury, were cautioned by the
Master-in-Chancery, when they laughed
aloud at an Inference that tho pastor drank
whiskey and used tobacco.
This was made by Miss Lucy N Flanlgen.
a next-door neighbor, who was asked by
Mrs, Trlplett's "attorney, Kx-Attorney Gen
eral Kdwin O. Wilson, whether or not she
belleed that the pastor was addicted to
tobacco and drink
"Veil. I do," sho replied. She admitted
Writing an anonymous note to the pastor,
Mklng "Have you become a slave to
tobacco and drink?" She did It. she said,
to bring him to a realization that the quar
rel with his wife was disrupting the con
eregatlon .

,F you wcro to have

would you attempt
tn rurn tho trnuhlo
JC- simply by purchas
ing a pair of crutches?
But, after all, that would
bo hardly less sensible than
buying glasses just becauso
you THINK they arc
needed.
Many eemlnB ee troubln are
really NOT eye troubles, but
simply Indication! of troubles in

Im'l It perfectly obvloui. then,
that lha sensible thins to do Is
to consult one who understands
both optics and their relation to
bodily ailments, of whatever
nature?
The Oculist Is the only one bo
qualified, and ha has nothing to
sell other than service and
ability , M d. ,,,
If glassea are needed, they will
be prescribed If not. the proper

MODEST STENOGRAPHER
IS MISSED BY DOCTORS
Miss Parrel 1 Not Snapshotted
and Interviewed on Leaving
With Hospital Unit No. 10
Tlie nurses looked so attractive In their
lied I'rnss uniforms, and tho doctors, oh, so
handsome In their khaki, that when ItaVe
Hospital No in, with Hr Richard .1 llarte
In charge set rJit for "somewhere In the
war 7.nne." little Miss Catherine O I'arrell
tho stenographer for the unit, was entirely
overlooked.
Nobody nsked her to step up nnd lrnve
her picture taken , no reporter, pencil nnd
paper' poised, buzzed round her eager to
know her opinion ru the campaign on the
West front, or whether she was scared of
the submarines nnd wns going to sleep In
her life preserver They Just didn't Itnmv
sho was going. And that was like Miss
I'arrell
Hut now the doctors for whom she acted
as secretary for Pr .lolm i:. Jopson In the
afternoon and Pr Theodore l.elloutllller In
the morning have missed her quiet capabil
ity to such nn extent that the couldn't help
bemoaning out loud the fact that she bad
gone avvnv, and so the reporter "got on."
Miss Tarrell. whose home I at '.'-'in Kit .

t'nlt No 10 was forming that she would
like to do something for hei countrv
"The unit will need a stenographer.'' she
was told "but we can't pay one as much ns
you make back home "
"Then that's n good way to do my bit,
Isn't If" she nsked simply And that set
