breach of promise action Ail other coun tries seem to regard with grave sus picion any attempt to recover mone tary compensation for the loss of a prospective husband and unless the plaintiff has a very strong case Indeed it is never worth her while to carry her grief into the law courts In France breach of promise cases are rare for the simple reason that the law requires the plaintiff to prove that she has suffered pecuniary loss Now this Is not an easy thing to do on the part of the lady especially In a country where a girl without a dot that is a marriage portion has a poor chance of finding a husband Holland and Austria have adopted the French system and the result has been about the same Breach of promise actions are rare the injured damsels or their relatives usually taking the law into their own hands Practical Germany as might be ex pected has perhaps the best method for solving this problem When a young couple become engaged they have to go through a public betrothal ceremony that ought to knock all the shyness out of them In the local town hall the pair declare their affec tion willingness to many etc ending by signing a collection of documents that apparently leave no loophole for escape But If either party to the con tract wishes to withdraw another jour ney Is undertaken to the town hall and another collection of documents signed witnessed and sealed Then the authorities determine the question of compensation should it be claimed In this connection it may bo said that the man can and often does claim a solatium for his wounded feelings The usu award is one fifth of the marriage dowry It is easy to under stand when all this is remembered how loafh the young people of Ger many are to break their betrothal oaths As the law of Italy affords little or no protection whatever tqjilted dam sols or swains it is not surprising that the stiletto should be the favorite mode of deciding breach of promise cases The Italian law demands that the per son suing for the breach shal produce a written promise to marry from the defendant otherwise the action cannot proceed This difficulty is almost in surmountable and the Italian judges are seldom troubled to adjudicate be tween one time lovers To bring an action for breach of promise of mariage against a reigning monarch is an achievement but it has been done and by an English lad Miss Jenny Mighell sued the sultan of Johore and as there was a doubt whether the dusky one was actually a- reigning monarch the case was allowed to come into court but the judge quick ly disposed of the action by ruling it Inadmissible for the reason referred to and Miss Mighell was nonsuited It is remarkable that one of the two actions which have brought verdicts for 10000 each to the plaintiffs should have had for Its defendant the editor of a matrimonial paper The second case was between a well known actress and the eldest son of an earl London Tit Bits Tune For Tune Frederick the Great made generous presents to all musicians except flute players lie played the flute remark ably well himself A famous flutist once asked permission to play to the king hoping that Frederick would show his appreciation of his skill by some valuable gift Frederick listened attentively while he played a difficult piece You play very well he said and I will give you a proof of my satisfaction So saying he left the room The mu sician waited guessing at the probable nature of the proof Presently the king returned with his own flute and played the same piece Then he bade his visitor Good day saying I have had the pleasure of hearing you and it was only fair that you should hear me Beyond His Aid A woman who had a telephone in her apartment called up the telephone com pany and asked tlmt the service be
