Mrs. Appleby, whose husband is more interested in his books than her happiness, took the first train to Reno to obtain a divorce. She left a note on the table to this effect, which certainly brought Mr. Appleby's brains to a realization of what he had done. He too took a train to Reno, followed by Mr. Brooks, who was bestowing his attentions upon Mrs. Appleby, during her husband's negligence. Mrs. Appleby, after residing in Reno the required number of days by law, secured a divorce. Her ex-husband and Mr. Brooks, who called upon her wore unceremoniously turned out of her apartments. Then she started for home. Mr. Appleby's sorrow was turned into joy one evening when he read in the papers of a decision handed down by the courts to the effect that a divorce procured in Reno by a certain person was null and void. So he went over to his mother-in-law's house and found her more beautiful than ever. Then he lifted her up in his arms and took her to their old home, after planting his fists upon Mr. Brooks' nose, who dropped to the floor and took the count.
