pastoral comedy in four acts, and takes
it's name from disputed boundary

humor, and 80 true to life, that you
cannot help but love the characters
while you laugh at them.

Ohio's rIarriage Law.

Ohio has put restrictions on mar
riage. The State legislature at its
last session passed law obliging
all applicants for marriage licenses
to answer these questions:
Is either party habitual drunk
ard?
Is either an epileptic2
Is either insane?
Is either under the influence of an
intoxicating liquor or drug?
The marriage license seeker in
Ohio must, to answer these ques-
tions, have knowledge not only of
his own but of his fance's condi-
tion of mind and body, habits and
tendencies. The law is an express
ion of a general feeling that the
reproduction of the unfit should be
prohibited by denying the right of
marrying to drunkards, dope 6ends,
epileptics and insane people.-Ex.
