N ATBruoNrAL DISPUTES IN SWITZERLAND.
In Borne they have novel method OF deal
ine with matrimonial disputants. Divorces
were freely granted, says Bishop Horne, but
first the applicant had to go through CURIOUS
test, 4 small room was prepared IN when
husband and wife were put--the door Delng
then closed, to remain SO tor SIX weeks e3-
cont i shonl0 h set in motion at the urgent
and united request Of the welded pair There
we're IN the room one stool, one plate, one
snoon, unity of all the requisites, and the
solitarv bed was OF such dimensions that, II
thew chose to use it together, they mist needs
lie very close together. OF one thing and only
one. there was duplicate and that was
little treatise on the duties Of husbands and
wives toward each other. No visitor was per-
mitted TO 90 near them; and they had only
glimpse at intervals Of the grin. face OF the
ianitor as he pushed their food through mole
IN the door. The bishop states that the test
was attended with the most wholesome re-
