DIVORCED WOMEN IN GERMANY liar Rlake Vne of TTieilr Former Ha- batuliV Xttntei UhIh Objection la Itaiacd. In Germany it has until recently been tho custom of divorced women to wear or discard their former hus bands' nnmes, ns Buitcd them best. A new law on tho BUbjcct hus, how ever, just gone into effect, says a report. Under its provisions n di vorced wife mny uso Jicr lato hus band's name unlesB and until ho makes u declaration, which costs nothing to the effect that ho with draws from her tho right to bear it. Of course, this declaration can bo mode only by ono whose own be havior was irreprbachable. If thcro were faults on both sides tho lady can call herself by tho surrlamo sho L possessed ever sinco her marriage. A curious case has recently uccn decided. A pretty young spouso wan divorced from her husband becnuso she had allowed herself to bo hyp notized and while in that Btato mado diverse grievous mistakes as to tho identity pf certain people. Her for mer lord when divorced forbade her to sign or otherwise uso his namo any longer, whereupon she reos Bumcd her maiden namo and in formed the registrar of her decision. This official entered her as "Divorced Lately she was about to lead' a second husband to the altar, when tho word "divorced" brolto tho spell of love. Tho lady took an action against the registrar, on tho ground that in her maiden namo bIio had not been divorced and that her profes sion was not that of a divorced lady. Tho supremo court has upheld tho objection and the registrar has been compelled to make a new entry. "Will not that "be very mislead ing?" it was asked. "It may be," was the reply, "if tho would-be hus band fancies that we guarantee anything- but the fact that her maiden name is or was X. lie. must find out tho other facts for himself. A Prussian registrar is not a matri monial ngent." Clone Unnrtcrw at the Coronation. Sixteen inches of room would strike most of us ns inadequate accommoda tion for our person in an omnibus.

He had gone into politics and had been elected by a bit majority. This was his first case. Mary McMunnis was up beforo him for drunkenness. The justice looked at her for a minute, and then paid, aternly: "Well, what are you here for?" "If yer please, yer honor," said Mary, "tho copper beyant pulled me in, sayin' I was drunk. An I don't drink, your honor; I don't drink." "All right," said the justice his former bartender habit getting the best of him "all right; have a cigar." Beverages. -i Acquired Skill. Methodically the angry wife hurled the cup and saucer at her husband. Seizing tho meat platter, she batted the salt cellar and pepper holder at him, and followed with a volley of sugar bowl, butter dishes, cream mug, and knives and forks. Seeking safety in the hall, the bruised husband mused to himself: "I knew that woman harbored ulterior motives when she devoted so much time to tho study of ping-pong." Ikdtimoro American.
