A law permitting divorce was passed
in France in 1884, chiefly through the
efforts of Senator Naquet, who himself
wanted a divorce in order that he might
marry again. Before this law was enact
ed there was only legal separation in
France. Under the divorce law the pc
titions for mere separation have fallen
off considerably, Disconnected married
couples evidently preferring divorce out
and out. In 1890 the proportion of di-
vorces to marriages was "a to 1000.
Cruelty and desertion were the causes as
signed for divorce in majority Of cases,
the greater number Of petitioners being
wives. The largest number Of petitions
was lodged by the class Of ordinary
working people.
