the tenant to take the trade fixtures away with
him when he vacated the house. The rule of
law is based on the theory that the tenant means
to abandon his trade fixtures to his landlord
when he moves out and voluntarily leaves them.
The record in the case alluded to showed that the
plaintiff and defendant both testified that the
trade fixtures were left because the landlord re-
fused to let the tenant take them away with him
But this fact was entirely overlooked, and when
the attention of the court was called to it on q
petition for rehearing, it was still ignored, and
the printed opinion in the report has no allu-
sion whatever to the sole fact upon which the
case was appealed. The question de
cided was never thought of by any
attorney in the case, no one ever
disputed the law that tenant was presumed to
abandon his title to trade fixtures if he did not
take them away with him when he vacated the
premises. But the question was, did this rule
of law apply when the tenant tried to take them
away and the landlord refused to allow him to
do so, and threatened to prevent him by violence
if he should attempt it, This question, the only
one in the case, was never so much as even al
luded to in the opinions Such instances are com
mon. Who is responsible for these things, the
writer will not attempt to decide. He knows
from a long and painful experience that they
cur very often, and that they are very provok-
ing, land further sayeth not" JUSTICE.

Divorce and Divorce Laws.

To the Editor OF the Indianapolis Jon rnal:
The indianapolis Journal of Feb. Is says: "a
Connecticut court has decided that decree of
divorce given by rabbi is void. 1t could not
be regarded otherwise. If the State must stand
good for the conduct of married people it must
have the control Of marriage and divorce" Like
Dominic Sampson, | must exclaim prodigious!
prodigious The divorce laws of nearly every
State are blot them. They lay out the
causes for divorce and disconnected parties take
advantage of the causes to free themselves. Di-
vorce courts may be legal institutions but they
are fast destroying the sacredness of homes. If
there were no divorce courts l believe husbands
and wives would be more careful in their con-
duct towards each other. What God hath
joined together let no man put
aslinder7 Are these words meaning
lest Marriage should not be considered civil
contract but a sacrament. If we can bring up
the next generation to believe this there will be
less sin and trouble in the world The Jewish
rabbi cannot make worse middle of divorce
than State laws have A jew has told me that
when Jewish husband and wife quarrel, a la
Christian, they go to the rabbi; he does his best
to adjust the matter If they will not live to-
gether, they can separate, but never marry
again That's A No l for the Jews. / would
advise all Christians, instead of flying to a di
yorce court, and bringing sorrow, scandal. and
shame upon themselves and families to consult
their clergyman, who they know would not ad
wise them wrong. TOPSY KNAPP.

MIDWINTER STYLES.

All fashionable breakfast gowns now made
either with Vatican plat or in prtncesse form.
Candles, with pink shades, scattered about
the room in pairs are becoming quite fashion
able.
Soft satin surahs, the heavier satin merveil-
leux and duchesse satins are still in favor for
black dresses
Hoods are again figuring conspicuously. Not
only are they made of widely Indifferent sorts of
materials, but also in the greatest variety of
styles.
Velvet dresses are handsomest when made all
of one kind of velvet and trimmed only with
little lace, black white, or BOTH or tinted to
match the color of the dress.
Tiny silver after-dinner coffee cups and sau-
GERS have been introduced with the desired eff
feet for everybody is talking about them and
wondering if they are solid OF only plated ware
Some recently imported black silk costumes
have buttons of Rhine stones, which, to the
unsophisticated, especially under gas-hght, have
the appearance of a row of frst-water dia-
monds
To make black silk or satin dresses more
dressy, the drapery of the corsage and skirt, also
the entire sleeves, may be made of beaded net,
in fine diamond or barred patterns, or with small
sprays or leaf designs.
Mutton-leg sleeves have been adopted by
French modstes, and are now coming to us in
imported toilets, after a prolonged snubbing,
which they encountered when the aesthetic ele
ment first introduced them.
For entirely black dresses for the early spring
the handsomest satins are being provided for the
greater part of the dress to be enriched by
vest and skirt front of elaborate embroidery
done on satin or else on net that is laid upon
satin.
In Paris, during the lenten season. certain la
dies always wear a sort of half-mourning and
now we hear that meaningless fashion is to be
introduced here by young ladies, who probably
do not entertain the idea of receiving thereby
