The Japanese Prince Yanasi is reported
to have written AS follows to an Americans:
Your marriage laws are loose, but | don't
think the question is of such grave import
as the magazines make it out to be. Your
people marry in too much of a hurry. They
mix business principles with their love af-
fairs. In Japan the principle underlying
our marital relation is that the affection
which makes marriage happy is not the
love which preceded the union, but the re-
spect, esteem and sense of mutual helpful
ness which arise afterward. But this way
Of trying to secure II good wife by first test
ing her sometimes fails. Some men marry
thirty or forty girls in trying to get the
right one. When a wife doesn't suit the
husband he just sends her back to her
mother with n kiss and his blessing. Then
he marries another" TIL prince probably
said nothing Of the sort. The remarks bear
Internal evidence Of falsity. Yanasi would
never speak OF sending a girl back with a
kiss" for kissing is not one of the customs
OF Japan. The people there never greet
each other with the lips.

Chicago has likewise made 1t warm for
the sports. "Parson"C C.. Il. Davies was prob
ally the most prominent OF these. Arthur
Lumley, the editor OF The Illustrated
News, said recently, "He has lost ground
steadily" Once a leader among the leaders,
Davies has now turned his attention to
managing prize fighters.
His former friend, Mike Mcdonald, is
more fortunate in a worldly sense, but
trouble has come to him as it has to the
rest Of the prominent old timers. He is
worth probably n couple of millions, and
is still quite n factor In Chicago politics.
The gold piled up in his gambling bells
has, however, brought him but little JOY,
for his domestic life has been n most un
happy one, He is sincerely attached to a
wife whose actions have caused the publ,
