That while the Taft people controlled

Maiden Name Barred
To Women Divorces

A woman who obtains a divorce in
Muskogee. Okla, hereafter cannot have
her maiden name restored. but a woman
who obtains a divorce from her second
husband may have restored to her the
name of her first husband IL she SO
desires
This is one of the new rules made
by Judge Farrar l.. Mccain. of the su-
pcrior court. Judge Mccain believes
that II s due TO society in general and
men in particular that II a woman has
been married she should not mas
querade as maiden.
Judge Mccain arrived at this de-
Cision from case which came under
his persooal observation and in which
he had granted a decree restoring a
maiden name. After the decree he
referred to the divorcee as Mrs. -
and was promptly rebuked. the woman
informing him that such was not her
name.
Judge Mccain has made several other
rules applying to divorce cases, among
them these three:
The mother Is the natural custodian
OF children, and unless circumstances
forbid, the children will be given into
the custody of the mother:
divorced husband shall not be per-
mitted to visit his children unless he
Nmtes to their support.
Whenever there is divorce case on
trial the defendant must appear in
court whether he wants to contest the
ton of the court. and the court will
itself have the defendant summoned IL

The President replied to his predeces-

been attended by such keen interest

The Democratic campaign between
Champ Clark and Woodrow Wilson has
been spectacular. Disinterested fore.

Interest was heightened by the switch
Of Governor Johnson from Senator La

The fight between Taft and Roosevelt
forces has been bitter during the entire

followers.

Humor in statues is rare, except Of

Sir Robert Holmes" a dashing seaman
who was captain OF the Wight from 1867

On one of his nautical raids he cap

did not make the sculptor, who was on
board. walk the plank. but compelled
him to finish the statue in the like

Leguminotherapy is the latest scien-

vegetable diet, but, according to the
National Pharmacist, a scientific diet
whereby the exact physiological and
temperamental relations of each veg

Green peas, for example according to
this new science, cause frivolity, and
should be withheld from young ladies
with a tendency to flirt. On the other
hand, they are excellent for wallhowers
and pessimists, and should be given In
generous helpings to bashful boys.
Carrots develop good temper and

mended for janitors, car conductors, and

The potato develops reason as we'll

mand the acceptance of a contesting
delegation that has no suggestion of
legitimate excuse for its claims. The

cerned about II. simply because they
are sure that effrontery will not dare
carry itself so far.
