Boforo the President, and Mr. Justice Bargravo Doanc there is a list of exactly 400 cases, of which 272 arc matrimonial and probate, and 128 Admiralty. The highest total recorded in the last ten years was in 11)04, when the figure reached was 504. .Last Hilary term there were 403, and in the corresponding term of 1907 the, number was 3G2. By a singular coincidence, the number of petitions for divorce brought by husbands and the .number brought by wives are usually about the same. This term there is a preponderance of husbands' petitions, the numbers being respectively 110 and.94. . Honour to whom Honour is due, This applies Laxo-ToDic to you; I have never been ill Since I called you my Pill, I find all that's claimed for you true. LAX.O-TONIC PILLS, 10ii and Is. gd. 3
