A WORD ON

Brooklyn Eagle: The large fact about
divorces is that there is almost always
another man or woman in waiting with
whom the applicant expects 10 renew the
covenants he or she is now anxious to
avoid. Most people do not seek divorce
because their marriage bonds are intoler.
able, but because they think some other
marriage bonds would be more TO their
taste. II the most that the law allowed
was separation from board and bed,
most Of the discontented couples would
patch up q modus vivendi and go on as
they are. A redeal OF husbands and
wives, sanctioned by the courts, the
church and society differ only in degree,
and not in principle, from the cut-and-
try-sgain doctrines which two women
were deservedly o~stracised for preaching
a good many years ago. II is this and 9
large observation of life which lie back
Of the demands that marriage vows shall
be considered sacred. something not &c
be lightly undertaken, and not TO be
severed but for the gravest reasons.
