Something About the Eminent German

On Nov 8 Professor Theodore

chief European countries have formed
a committee to arrange for comment
Grafton of this occasion, and they now

was born at Garding in Schleswig, Nov.
80, 1917. He became professor of law
at Leipzig while still a young man.
Having been dismissed for the part he
took in political affairs he was made
titular professor of law at Zurich in
1852. at BreSlau in 1854 and at Berlin
in 1853. In 1875 he was appointed
professor of jurisprudence in the Uni
versity of Leipzig. On June Is, 1882,
he was tried at Berlin for having in
Sn election speech slandered Prince

cision was appealed against, and the
imperial high court of appeal ut Lr:p-

mirers had the happy idea Of presenting
him with a selection of classical and
historical books printed in England to
compensate him for some portion Of
his loss.

DIVORCE LAWS.
Married Couples Experiment with Mar
rage in q Disgra ceful Manner.

Once divorce laws are enacted, mar
ried couples take advantage Of them
who would never have thought or
dreamed Of separa ting. and would have
patched up their quarrels and differ
enceS if there had not been such an
easy way out of the matrimonial bond
No man would have ever thought, I'M
less the law favored a loose way out
of wedlock, to write: "Mary, If you
love me, or ever did love me, you will
apply for a divorce, as there is another
woman whom I could love-" AS the
scope Of the law is little by little en-
larged, an increasing number seek and
obtain divorces, and after awhile 1t
becomes a perfectly respectable thing
to contract what might be called ex-
perimental marriages. In the west,
especially. society receives back d.
vorces. The palaces of the well-to-do
are open to them. Churches do not
cast them out, and ministers welcome
them at their communion tables. They
may occupy positions of trust and ho-
nor, two or three divorces to their
credit side Notwithstanding. And we
are told that such sights have no in
fuence on the growing generation of
boys and girls. This is not true Teach
the rising generation by object lessons,
at an age when impressions are deep
and lasting. that men and women
may, without losing caste, divorce at
pleasure. and the notion of the sanctity
Of the family life is undermined
