sell is giving the House Of Lords the
benefit of his expert knowledge Of divorce
laws by introducing a bill to amend the

in every respect in which he suffered under
It. Infdelity, cruelty, penal servitude,
lunacy and desertion for one year should
each be SUFFICIENT ground for a divorce, he
argues. while he would make 1t legal for
divorced persons to marry as soon as the
decree is issued. He would legitimatize
children whose parents marry after their
birth and make marriage with a dead wifes
sister legal. There is little chance that
these sweeping changes will be adopted.
The whole tendency Of modern feeling is in
favor of divorce laws more instead Of less
stringent.
