Under this singular system a wife, on her
marriage, is supposed to make her hus-
band an absolute gift OF all her prop
erty. He may do what he likes with it,
and she has no sort of claim upon TX
from the moment of the marriage. If she be
fortunate enough to be possessed Of real estate
a spinster, il will avail her little in her
changed condition. The husband is entitled to
receive the rents and profits OF the wfe's estate
and to spend them ss he pleases. There is OBJ
yiously, little mistake in the marriage service
somewhere. 1t Is, in fact, the wife who enCiews
her husband with all her worldly goods IL is
true that the husband processes to endow the
wife, but that is nothing but pleasant fiction
a merry little Jest. This irresponsible power
which the man enjoys over the womau's pro-
perty applies not only to such property as she
may have brought with her at her marriage
but to anything and everything she may ac-
quire afterwards. The wife, being a nobody in
law, is incapable OF entering into a contract,
she cannot sue or be sued, and is, consequently
quite unable legally to earn anything whatever
Ii she work for wages, the wages are her hus-
bands. IL she writes hook. she has nothing
to do with the profits. If she paint q picture,
the price OF 1t is not her own. And here is one
Of the most fertile sources of hardship; here is
the tyranny Of man, of which we hear so much
unmistakable for once. The bad husbands there
is no doubt, have 1t all their own way.
