Mr.. Gladstone has always held tn some

Gladstone, which enables husband to-
capture, bring home, and wallop his wife
if she has departed from his domicile
All he has to do is To swear out war

return the fugitive, and the law permits
him to "reproven her with lash or cudgel
One man administered reproof with a
club and followed that by stronger re-
proof with shovel. was arrested and
brought to trial But the court ruled
that the husband had not Transcribed his
rights in the premises and he departed
from the temple of justice eXonerated and
vindicated. 1t is law in England to-day
that n married man may give his wife
such corporal correction as she needs.
The courts, in determining the question
of necessity, allow the husband large dis
crction England is exceptional in many
respects. She is the richest country on
earth: she has the largest navy; she is the
most rapacious land grabber the most
successful coloniZer, and the only civil
