A Post Card VIII.

A curious case has just come before
the German courts. II was learned that
three DAYS previous 10 the death of a
trader at Bad Mannheim. he had sent
post card 10 6 lady friend on the oc-
casion Of her birthday. in which he de-
plored his Illness and added. For a good
birthday present 1 am leaving TO you
my fortune" The lady to whom this
postal was sent claimed that the mis-
sive constituted a will in her favor and
made her heir to his estate of 100000
marks. In the first court the decision
went against her, and on appeal TO a
higher court this finding was upheld The
grounds upon which the decision was
based were that, by German law. when
a person draws up his own will it is
necessary for the document TO state
where it was written. The trader, al
though he had signed the card with his
full signature, omitted TO place his ad-
dress upon it.

There appears no division in either
the Roman Catholic or Protestant
Episcopal church. although it is
shown that offers to modify their
creeds have resulted in the establish
ment OF independent bodies. They
are designated as the Reformed Cath
olict and the Reformed Episcopal
churches respectively. The Reformed
Catholic number only 1850 communi-

The cause OF origin of some of the
branches is indicated by the name.

The Civil War caused splits giving
rise to Southern Methodist and South

there is also color division. Two or
three churches come into existence
just after the close of the war as

Many of the branches of the Luth-
