The court ordered that she should pay him $20 per month, temporary alimony, and $25 solicitor\u2019s fees, from which order is this appeal. We do not review the cause shown on which such order was made, being of the opinion that if alimony from a wife to a husband is a proper thing upon circumstances, legislation is necessary to authorize it. At common law a husband was required to provide his wife with necessaries, but there was no reciprocal duty.\nThe statute gives her\u2014not him\u2014alimony. To give it to him is not to administer existing, but to make new, law. Somers v. Somers, 39 Kan. 132. Green v. Green, 68 N. W. Rep. (Neb.) 947.\nThe order is reversed.",
