Sanity


It is a matter of uncommon knowledge that personal perfection is a most

trying thing to live with. In the United States recently, a woman sued

for divorce, alleging in the complaint against her husband that he had

no faults. It was probably a subtle subconscious realization of the

unpleasantness, even the unendurableness, of perfection in the domestic

companionship that caused the obvious misprint in the following extract

from a Scotch editorial concerning the new divorce legislation:



"But the Bill creates new grounds for the dissolution of the marriage

bond, which are unknown to the law of Scotland. Cruelty, incurable

sanity, or habitual drunkenness are proposed as separate grounds of

divorce."
