OLD CODE
IN AID OF WOMAN

Paris, France, March 20.-The ap
plication of curious and almost for
gotten clause of the Napoleonic code
is the feature of a divorce case before
a Paris tribunal A few weeks ago
all Paris was interested in the arrest
of druggist named Parat, who was
charged with brutally imprisoning his
wife. The police found the unforfal-
nate woman locked in a dark bedroom
with a nursing baby and caring for
four other children. Two heavy chains
fastened her to the wall and she was
wearing strait-jacket attached to
padlocls. n
Parat was confronted by his wife
who is suing for divorce in conformity
with the French law, which demands
that judge before giving a verdict
must attempt reconciliation of the
litigants. At this meeting the lawyer
for Nine. Parat, armed with a dusty
tome from the tribunal library, point
ed out an old law to this effect: ION
the death of pharmacist the widow
may continue the business one yer
with a qualified assistant"
The judges reading of the law was
that the Imprisonment of Parat con.
stituted his legal death and therefore
he gave a decision making the once
padlocked woman the sole head and
administrator of the prosperous busl-
ness and the legal guardian of the five
children.

MEDICAL PAPER SAYS THAT
VIEWS ON VALUE OF PROCESS
MUST Be REVISED.

London, March 2O.-A recent issue
of the Lancet under the heading,
Some Drawbacks OF Pasteurization,
says
I'm view of recent investigations
conducted by Czerney in Germany,
by Pennington in Philadelphia, and
by DIR. Deutsch of Budapest, it is
likely that current views on the value
of pasteurization will have to be al
tered. The medical profession has
for many years been recommending
the use of pasteurized milk for the
poor of our large towns, and the
daily newspapers, following this
lead, have had much to say in its
praise. 1t must be admitted that
pasteurization does not In any way
alter the nutritive qualities of milk
whatever effect it may have on n
from an aesthetic point of view.
Moreover, there is no doubt that
by pasteurizat.on the bacterial con
tents of the milk are for the time
greatly diminished and the danger
of infection is pr0portionately les
sened. Unfortunately, however, &C.
cord.ng to DR.. Deutsch, the diminu-
ton of bacteria is only temporary,
and pasteurized milk, when examined
a day or two after preparation, is
found to contain a larger number OF
bacteria than ordinary milk. Inc
organism chiefly affected by pasteur-
ization is the Tactic acid bacillus,
whose therapeutic effects are now SO
much IN evidence"
