COST OF DIVORCES

LONDON, March 23.-British
reformers are aiming to simplify
the red tape methods of the d.
vorce court in order to reduce the
costs incurred in travelling to
courts and to keep down the
court costs themselves.
Divorce costs vary widely in
many of the continental countries.
In Belgium the official divorce
fee is less than So. Germany has
a sliding scale, fixed according to
the means of the applicant. In
many cases the bargain counter
price Is IS, and prices run from
that amount upwards to 1920.
In Holland the cost of divorce
ranges from $40 to $50, and the
fees are small In Norway, Sweden
and Switzerland. In France the
outside cost is 500, and this in-
cludes the fees for the lawyers on
both sides.

LONDON, March 24.-John
Burns, famous English labor
leader, who once did three months
in a convict colony for his part in
a demonstration of the unemploy-
ed, has, besides a hard fist, some
decided ideas. Some of them con-
Germ the proper education of the
girl for home life.
The other day he found time
from his cabinet duties-Burns is
president of the local government
board of Great Britain-to say
some things to the boys and girls
of a district school at Anerly,
particularly to the girls. Some of
them were epigrammatic:
To cook q potato we'll is better
than to play the plano badly.
To nurse and dress a baby is
much preferable to overdressing
yourself.
Good cooking makes the good
husband.
Make that man Of yours-when
you get him-comfOrtable in his
own chimney corner and smile,
lest he seek the bar maids pro-
fcssional good cheer.
Have children and keep them
clean, IL you would have them

and their father.
