STYLE of Address.

With regard to the style which
should be adopted in addressing mar
ried women, a controversy has arisen
in Germany. There are, In the Ian
guage of the Fatherland, four names
whereby that class may be designated
-gemahlin (consort), gattin (spouse),
frau Qady), and weib (wife). To save
the not infrequent disputes and heart
burnings which arise from imperti-
nence and ignorance in the use of any
of these terms, it is now proposed that
one shall be officially allotted to each
of the recognized gradations of the
'scale social" In this manner, gen.
erals wife shall be known as his "con-
sort" she of an official of the next
lower grade shall be that happy per-
sons Spouse" the middle-class part
ner becomes her husbands lady" and
the workingman's helpmate is simply
his "Wife."
