factor i'll putting through the law that
is now likely to serve as a model for
other countries.
First | want to make clear" said
Fru Anker, that this law which has
done so much to solve the divorce
evil in my country was one of the
direct results of the Acknowledgement
of my sex. The law was passed by a
liberal government, but it had the
support of all parties. 1t is based on
the principle that mutual love between
the husband and the wife is the only
moral basis for marriage. When that
feeling fails or is seriously shaken it
is absurd to bind the two together
any longer. The law ought then step
in and provide the means for a di-
vorce. Our law provides admission
to separation as the preliminary to
divorce when both parties request it,
and similar relief when one requests
it on such grounds as to make it prob
able that mutual good will is ruined

vorce without inquiring into the rea-
sons, but as security that the step has
been we'll thought over before action
it provides that a year of separation
must intervene between the applica-
ton and the actual granting of the di-
vorce. If the request is made by only
one party two years Of separation
must precede the actual divorce
I'm my country divorce is not looked
upon as disgrace, but rather as
relief from an unfortunate state of af
fairs 1t is kept out Of the courts as
much as possible, the machinery be-
ing largely in the hands of admins
trative officials. The proceedings are
very simple and extremely cheap.
The cost varies in different cases, run
ming from a little less than $125 to
S25. 1t is not necessary to employ
lawyers 1t is the duty of the admin
istrative officials to make their own
Investigations and to collect the nee
essary information, to settle the ques-
ton Of money and to arrange for the
care of the children.

Severance of Marriage Ties in
Norway Easy to Procure.
New Law Is Biessino-its Enact
n1ent Has Not Been Followed by
Rush of the Dissatisfied
to Courts.

London.-Norway has now solved
the divorce evil, a correspondent
writes. At least so declares Fru Ella
Anker, one of the leaders Of the Nor
Wegian Women's movement and a sis
ter-in-law Of Herr Johann Castberg,
minister of justice in the last Nor
wegian cabinet. Herr Castberg framed
the law of 1910, which is believed to
have accomplished the miracle. Fru
Anker has come to England to tell the
EnglishWOmen Of the success of her
sex in Norway, and so struck with
her accounts have been many infiuen-
tial Women's organizations that they
have decided to agitate for an Eng
fish divorce law modelled on the Nor
Wegian measure
1t was with the hope that Fru Ank-
er's knowledge would be of some as
sistance to you in the United States,
fiOundering as you are in a divorce
maze from which few are in agree
ment as to the surest way out, that |
have had the following interview.
Fru AnIer is a slight, pleasant
faced, rosy complexioned, typical
Scandinavian woman, with an engag-
ing freshness Of manner. She speaks
English almost without a flaw, but is
troubled, from an interviewer's point
of view, with an amount of modesty
and self-deprecation that is almost dis
concerning.
But what she lacks in self esteem
she more than makes up in her en-
thusiasm for the cause of women. She
is, like most Norwegian women, alb
solutely sure that the beginning of the
brighter era dawned in her country
when partial adult suffrage was grant
ed to her sex. Certainly. declares Fru
Anker, the women were the deciding

IN AGONY WITH ITCHING

About four years ago l broke out

Why He Couldn't Sit Down.

Harry. aged six, is an orphan; but
an indulgent grandmother and kind
maiden aunt have taken care of him.
The first pair Of knickerbockers were
secured recently, and it was a proud
moment for the boy when his aunt
put them on him on Sunday morning
and he was permitted to go to church
with his grandmother. Naturally
maiden aunts know very little about
the arrangement Of knickerbockers
and there was suspicious fullness in
front and an equally mystifying tight
ness in the back to be observed, as
the little chap trudged happily along.
In church Harry sat down, but did
not appear comfortable and stood up.
Harry, sit down. whispered his
grandmother. He obediently climbed
back on the seat, but soon slipped off
again. Harry, you must sit down"
Grandma, can't. My pants is chok.

MASSACRE OF INDIA LEPERS
Victims Were Assembled by Chinese
Governor and Shot Down by
Soldiers.

Calcutta-The mission to lepers in
India and the east is responsible for
a tragic story of the massacre of a
number of lepers in a district near
the French frontier In China.
According to this story, a military
commander Of a district induced the
lepers to assemble by the announce
ment that a distribution of rice would
be made. A large number gathered,
bringing with them many children.
Arrived at the rendezvous, the lep-
ers were surrounded by soldiers and
shot down Dead and wounded were
then shoveled into a deep pit already
prepared and kerosene oil poured
over them, the whole mass then be-
ing set on fire.
A few who escaped were hunted
down on the hills and killed.

Special "BIack Maria" Built for
Rajah's Gigantic Son, Accused
of Stealing Pearls.

Paris.-Paris is convulsed with
laughter because an Indian prince, who
attended the coronation of King
George and Queen Mary of England is
so bulky that he cannot enter the
Paris black maria, and the city coun-
ell has been compelled to build spe-
cial polio, conveyance for the big
brown man from India. His name is
Naushad Ali, and he is a member Of
the provincial parliament of Oudh and
nephew of Rajah Sir Mohammed Ia
baddreg Raoul Khan of Jehangi-
rabad.
The reason why this mighty man OF
many distinctions has been connected
with the black maria is because of
his fondness for jeWelry. A jeweler
named Meyer sent him rope of
pearls for inspection, the prince hav-
ing written: please let my secre-
tary select jewels to the amount of
$4,000"
The high sounding titles of Naushad
Ali and of his uncle, the rajah; his
presence at the British coronation,
and the fact that he is invariably &C.
companied by a giraffe-like servant
seven feet high in Indian costume,
threw the usually suspicious jeweler
off his guard.
The thinness of the servant and the
largeness of his master have been
brought out in most picturesque con-
trast, for SO devoted is the servant
that he insisted on going to Jail with
his master. His family has served the
princes family for 800 years.

IN LESS STRENUOUS TIMES
Explanation of the Differences Be-
tween Domestic Standards Now
and Those of Long Ago.

In the WOman's Home Companion
there is an interesting presentation Of
the difference that exists between the
domestic standard of young married
women of today and those Of the past
generation. How did the women of
the middle class Of a generation or
two ago manage when they could not
keep help? Following is the answer
quoted from a Companion editorial:
They lived according to their
means; they did not set up impossible
standards, and they knew much less
about the science of bringing up chill
dren. They had no special style to
keep up; gave the children a weekly
bath; kept the table set between
meals did not serve their meals in
courses. but put all the food on the
table at once; confined their social
affairs to evening calls and parties,
and church suppers, at which they
wore the same black silk dress for at
least two seasons; in short, every
woman did only what she could, and
her friends made 1t easier for her by
doing likewise"

Governor John Slaton Thinks Twenty
Years Enough for Man Who Con-
fessed Murder.

Atlanta.-Nearly 20 twenty years a
convict is considered by Governor
John M. Slaton as punishment enough
for negro, who, after committing
q murder and fleeing from the state
paid his own railroad fare back from
Mississippi to the scene of the crime
and confessed, expecting to be hanged
for his trouble. In the case, that of
James Foster, sent up 20 years ago
from Early county, the governor has
granted full pardon.
Twenty-four years ago Seaborn
Sheffield, wealthy planter, who lived
alone, was found dead while at the
supper table. There was no clew to
the murder, and the crime remained
q mystery until four years later.
While court was in session, Foster
came to the sheriff and stated to him
that he was the murderer. The negro
had fled to Mississippi and remained
there four years. He said his con-
science drove him to return and con-
Tess, and he said he expected to be
hanged
The negro claimed he had been
forced to kill Sheffield by the latter's
two sons-in-law who feared he would
divorce his wife. The negro was CIV
en- a life sentence, but the white men
he implicated were acquitted. The
legro has been an exemplary prisoner,
and Governor Slaton thinks he should
be rewarded for confessing the crime
when he was in no danger. The par
don of the negro was urged by Justice
Powell, of the Court of Appeals, who
is q nephew of the murdered man.
