NO REMARRIAGE UNTIL
3 YEARS AFTER DECREE
Says Craze for Unusual and
Restlessness Prompt Rich
Couples to Seek Parting.
BY BARBARA KENT.

KK ISIS AMANDA M. DOUGLASS,
one of New jerseys well-known
authors, descended from the
realm of fiction into real life long
enough yesterday to give her views on
marriage and divorce. And very inter
esting and startling views she gave me
in the sunny drawing of her
charming home. 46S Summer avenue,
this city.
Miss Douglass is writing a book on
divorce, and many will be the poignant
truths brought home to society
She is devoting mitch time and thought
to the social conditions of the people
of her country. and is severely CRITICS.
ing its loose divorce laws.
at seems to me that the men and
women of high society try on loves as
they try on gloves" she said indignant
ly in regard to the divorces now pend
ing. 1.-THE only cure for this l can sug-
gest is thai a Law be passed which
forbids remarriase for three years after
the granting of the divorce."
But I protested, that would tend
to immortality more or less"
THAT is true, but then we have much
of that now. On the other hand, how
ever many men and women would not
try to seek divorce If they knew they
could not remarry Immediately. How
outrageously simple are some of our
so-called society people! They no
sooner get a divorce because they were
unhappy, than they blindly jump into
another marriage. 1t is a sin and out
rage and sets a bad example to the
middle class.

biggest fool of all.
II understand that before her first
marriage she vas a very plain, unat-
tractive young woman. but Castellane
took her to Paris, where she was taught
by excellent teachers to make herself
attractive, and from what / hear she
has succeeded most wonderfully. She
ought to be thankful to him for what
he has taught her.
What a beautiful example she sets
her boys! I should imagine she would
be ashamed of herself. AS for this
Prince De Sagan, l can only say he is
one of many titled fortune-seekers. 1t
is for such men and women that we
should have better and s~tricter divorce
laws.

the Bronx, by DIR. Raymond L. Dit
mars, curator of the park, before a
number of prominent medical men. The
reptile was brought out in a glass case
by two keepers, and then DR.. Dittmars,
taking his life in his hands, grasped it
quickly behind the head. A jar, the
mouth covered with a piece of thin
gauze, was held before the head of the
angry viper, into which, with lightning
like rapidity, 1t struck its fangs, from
which the drops of precious serum
dropped into the jar. This was re-
peated three times until the poison
glands were exhausted. Then a solu-
ton of sugar and milk in a ratio of
999 grains to one of serum was poured
in the jar, and the mixture treated
until it was a fine white powder. So
powerful is the serum that 1t is given
in only the most minute quantities, the
largest dose containing about one ten
trillionth of a grain, and from thac
down to quantities so small that figures
fail to give an idea.
The snake was captured some time
& in Brazil by a party of American
scientists, and was hurried to this
country. The lance head is far more
deadly than the RATHER, and gives no
warning when it strikes.
This is the viper that the Aztecs fos-
tered for its poisons, tipping their
spear heads and arrows in them for
use against their enemies. So potent
is the poison that old spear heads dug.

a scratch is inflicted with them. The
specimen in the Zoo has lot eaten in IA
month, and. it is thought, will starve
itself to death within a month.

our younge generation near of such

"As for Cooke and that Whaley girl l
think they are already severely pun
ished. 1t is a dreadful example to set,
but | suppos we cannot avoid such in
cidents. After all l think it is up to the
women. They allow themselves to
question too often whether this or that
is wrong or right. We should have a
higher scale Of morality and should
know that when a thing is wrong it is
wrong, and when it is right it is right.
"a married woman should love her
husband and not covet another man,
and so with the men. Let men and
women realize the seriousness of mar
riage before they promise to love,
honor and obey I really believe that
many couples marry knowing that IL
they find they don't like each other they
can soon get a divorce. In fact, 1

Higher Morality Needed
Let our mothers teach the girls a
higher scale of morality. Let them
teach the ~sacredness of love and mar
riage and we will probably in time come
to have happier marriages"
And in the meantime Miss Douglass
will finish her book on divorce" and
will undoubtedly furnish some sound
doctrines. She has the book partly
written, but has been forced to cease
her work temporarily because of the
demand by her publishers that she first
finish two children's stories. sequels TO
others with which she has delighted
