Assuming Husbands Names.


The practice of the wife assuming the
husbands name at marriage, according
to DR.. Brewer, originated from Roman
custom and became the common custom
after the Roman occupation. Thu
Julia and Octavia, married to Pompe
and Cicero, were called by the Roma
Julia of Pompey, Octavia of Cicero, al
In latter times married women in mo
European countries signed their nam
in the same manner, but omitted t.
ssof." Again this view may be me
toned that during the Sixteenth al
even at the beginning of the SIEVE!
teenth century the usage seems doub
full, since we find Catharine Parr 81
signing herself after she had been twic
married, and we always hear of Lad
Jane Gray (not Dudley, Arabella Stuari
mot SEYMOUR, etc.
Some persons think that the custom
originated from the Scriptural teaching
that husband and wife are one.
This was the rule of law SO far back
ss Bracton died 1868, and it was de-
cided in the case of Bon versus Smith
in the reign of Elizabeth, that a woman
by marriage loses her former name and
legally receives the name of her hus-
band. Altogether, the custom is in
volved in much obscurity. - Buffalo

advantages which her brothers at the
bar can never enjoy. A little incident
in the Chambers part of the Supreme
Court the other day will illustrate this
point: 1t was Monday, which is always
the busiest day of the week in this
branch of the court. There was an un-
usually long calendar this day, and
although it was almost o'clock the
courtroom was still crowded with fifty
or sixty lawyers, who had been waiting
lmpatently since IL O'Clock to argue
their motions or to get "ex-parte" orders
signed. There was an unusually large
pile of these orders on the Judges desk
waiting to be signed, because His Honor
had been so busy that he had been unable
to attend TO them.
A modest looking, neatly dressed
young woman came into the courtroom
with some legal papers in her hand.
She walked up to the rail, while the clerk
quickly came forward, all attention.
he took the papers which she carried
and handed them to the judge immedi-
ately. while the court officers hustled
around and brought her chair. The
arguments of the legal lights were
stopped. His Honor took the papers,
glanced over them quickly and put some
hier"Slyphice, which stood for his sign
ature, at the bottom of them, the clerk
handed the documents back to the young
woman, and in less then five minutes
after she entered the courtroom the
woman lawyer had accomplished her OBJ
Ject and gone back 10 her office.
Just as she was disappearing through
the door lawyers clerk came up to the
rail
"Has the Judge signed that order
which handed up this morning?" he
asked.
"No," was The reply, "he will not
sign any orders before 2 or o'clock

This world is getting to be better
every year for little people, although
there are still certain restrictions
which, to the juvenile mind seem un.
just.
A small boy voiced the youthful
complaint one day when he was taken
to the park.
Being under the guardianship of his
mother, he found his desires con-
stantly checked. He was told that
he must not run over the grass, nor
pick the flowers, nor climb the trees,
and was forbidden to do great many
other things, because the police had
their eyes on him or the law forbade
1t. Finally he gave great sigh and
said:
