Mr.. Gulick is getting the football
boys well tuned up for the beginning

That Settled II.

Daddy was in the habit of going in
to the apartment upstairs to play polk
er every evening. His neighbor, who
was something of an invalid, was I'M
able to visit daddy's apartment with
out great inconvenience. Mother oft
en- missed daddy, but Tommy had FL
do. so he didn't mind it bit. One
evening mother happened to send Tom
my upstairs to borrow something, and
he found daddy upstairs comfortably
seated at the table playing poker, and
sitting serenely on the arm of his
chair was Fido. Down came Tommy,
tears streaming down his little face
as he blubbered: "Oh, mother, dad
dy's got Fido upstairs teaching him to
play poker, and now my doggfe will
never want to stay home any more ]"

say this. Miss Harding: here we are

DIVORCE EASY IN OLD JAPAN
What Is Prescribed, Concerning the
Matter, in the Oldest Code of
Nippon Laws.

Divorce in old Japan was called
Mikudari han (three lines and half),
from the fact that when the husband
wanted to get rid of his wife all he
had to do was to give her a letter con-
sisting of three and a half lines.
There is an old usage that one who
proposes to marry has to draw up a
written contract consisting of seven
lines and submit 1t to the fiancee's
mother. And love letters used to be
written In three and half lines. The
Koshibagaki, one of the best porno-
ing certificates of divorce to the dis
owned wife in the Seventeenth CEN
fury.
Although it is unknown when
adopted, the oldest code Of Japanese
laws states that the husband at the
divorce of his wife should give writ
ten certificate signed by his relatives,
and where the wife was illiterate, the
certificate was to be drawn up in signs.
During the Togukawa regime the d.
vorce certificate was the necessary con-
dition of divorce.
The only recourse for ill-treated
wives In the Togukawa period was the
special institution of the divorce tenn
pie. Women who hated their husbands
and resorted to the temples of nuns
might be allowed to return to their
parents home after three years disci-
pline In the temple.
