Japanese Marriage Laws.
(From Harper's Weekly.)
Although Japan has revealed
herself as highly enlightened in
so'many spheres of civilization,
she has not yet applied reformatory
principles to the institution
ot murriage.
There is as yet no such thing in
Japan as equality between the
sfcxes. The law relating to marriage
recognizes no wrongs ex
cept on the part of the wile, from
whom the husband may obtain
a divorce by merely asserting that
he is tired of her, or upon any of
the following grounds:
Disobedience, adultery, barrenness,
jealousy, physical an
lipafhy, talkativeness, or thell.
W lien a girl is about to marrv,
her mother impresses upon hoi
various rules of conduct to bo
followed (lining her wedded lite.
Some ol t h<-se are;
