SORT OF TRIAL DIVORCE
PROPOSED IN NORWAY

Stockholm, Nov. 14.--To bring the
divorce within the reach of the poor.

bill today submitted by the Nnited
Parliamentary Committees Of Sweden,
Norway, and Denmark, to the respect
i've parliaments,
The measure provides for a sort of
"trial divorce" Each divorce must
be preceded by a period of legal sep
aration. Various conditions are laid
down whereby it will be found conven-
lent and expeditions for candidates for
matrimony to provide themselves with
medical certificates. Minors may not
marry without the consent of both par.
ents, and no girl under IS years of age

prerogatiye in granting divorce, and
there are several clauses aimed at the
improvement of conditions Of illegiti-
mate and adopted children.

mean quite bit to Sanity. First of
all the democratic tariff trainers kept
Christmas trees-eyergreen seedlings
on the free list. They also showed their
good intentions by cutting in twain the
import duties on candy. Although only
100000 worth Of foreign-made candy
is expected to be imported next year,
to compete with the $l34,000,0OO worth
manufactured in this country, demo-
Gratis hope in time that the amount will
be increased and prices therefore go
down, much to the joy of all sweet
toothed people.
There is one sad blow for the kid
dies in the new tariff. 1t was the re.
fusal Of the democrats to reduce the
import duty on foreign toys, doll heads,
marbles, and other similar toys except
ing those of china and earthenware, on
which the duty was reduced so little,
that it probably wont make very much
difference. Last year Americans bought
1881 900 worth of foreign toys on
which they paid a duty of $2,75S0O0.
Christmas cards ought to be quite
a bit cheaper if you buy them by the
pound for they have been reduced
from five to ten cents pound. Christ
mas fruits also ought to be cheaper
this Christmas, They seem certain to
cost less next year, Oranges ought to
cost from one.half to one cent cheaper
on the dozen; figs one cent a pound
cheaper and cranberries eight cents a
quart instead Of ten.
But one thing is certain. If wifey
or daughter or sweetheart pines for
iewelry or diamond set articles, have
a care. There's a five per cent increas,
ed duty on real and imitation gold, sill
yer and platinum jewelry, Diamonds
formerly were on the free list and a
stone which cost 5000 under the old
law, win cost you from 1920 to $3.50
now, However, IL you already have a
diamond you can feel better because
Of its increased value,
While few of the usual, conventional
Christmas gifts are reduced in duty
under the new lay (for the democratic
trainers have generally increased taxes
ON Injuries, including Santa CLAUSE the
rates are generally lower upon useful
and wearable gifts. Mr. Bloated Bond,
holders Christmas win probably cost
more, but Mr.. Common People may be
able to reduce the "high cost Of Christ,
