Too Many Rules for Marriage and Divorce

indianapolis. Feb. 14.-To make
marriage moro difficult and divorce
easier. or to facilitate the former and
restrict the latter, isn't the object of
thc proposed uniform marriage and
divorce law" introduced by Senator
Cappcr and representative Fairchild
in Congress at Washington. according
to Mrs. Edward Franklin White,
deputy encouragement of Indiana
who drafted the bill.
The idea simply is to put into effect
one set Of rules for the whole coun-
try.
For our IS states and the District
of Columbia VIC have at present A.
such sets of rules, Mrs. White points
out.
And they conflict. she adds.
Amendment Is Proposed.
In addition TO the proposed law,
there have been introduced. both in
the Senate and House of Representa-
tives. resolutions for amendment of
the federal constitution, 50 as TO per-
nit Congress to enact the desired
legislation.
Different laws in different states
on contracts. insurance, corporations
and the like" says Mrs. White, may
not be great evil, but different mar
riage and divorce laws are. because
of their effect on the legitimacy of
children, the descent Of property and
many other things concerning welded
couples and their issue.

Here's the mummy gown"
It's a white silk sport affair, hand
painted in designs suggested by those
on articles taken recently from King
Tutankhamen's tomb near Luxor,
Egypt.
The figures of mummies and lotus
flowers are mostly in rose, green and
yellow.
1t was the "Ioudcst" thing shown
at the National Garment Retailers
Associations symphony in spring and
summer styles.
When you consider that the crca-
tons supposed to smack to Tutank-
hamen's own time and that he regain,
ed in Egypt something like 1900 3. c..
it will be appreciated that it's a re-
vival with vengeance Of the fash

Good Manners

The suffix Junior" is not gen
orally used on a woman's calling
cards, but sometimes it is neces-
sary. For example, if a woman
whose husband bears the same
name as his father lives in the
same town as the senior couple,
it is required to avoid confusion.
The mother-in-law does not use
the suffix "Senior" unless widow
ed, in which case she does so if
she continues to use her late hus-
bands full name, while the daugh-
ter-in-law drops the Junior" from

sensational incidents of the famous
French scandal.
Major Esterhazy. buried last May
as Count de Noilement. had lived in
England since 1898. He fled TO this
country in that year after il had be-
come known that he and not Dreyfus
had written the memorandum, found
in the French foreign office, of docu-

This notation in a hand, simi,;.s 10

he was found guilty, degraded and sen

island, a French penal colony off the
South American coast. This was in
1894.
In the public Indignation that fol-
lowed the trial, augmented greatly by
Emil Zola's famous letter "JAccuse,
which exposed an alleged conspiracy
against Dreyfus, Col. Georges Pie
quart of the French general staff dis
covered that Esterhazy had been the
real author. The major was brought
to trial, but was acquitted.
However, when it became evident
that Dreyfus would eventually be ex-

Early in 1899 he told the story of his
part in the affair to British journal

Meanwhile Dreyfus. supported by a
strong faction of popular opinion, no.

trial. He was again found guilty but
his conviction was ultimately annulled
and he was readmitted into the French
army, receiving a majors commits
