CUSTODY OF THE DOG
DIVORCE SUIT PROBLEM Zoltan Sarkany, a Budapest wholesale merchant, recently hied a petition for divorce on the ground that both he and his wife had outgrown their affection after two years of marriage, reports the “London Observer.” It appeared, however, that neither the petitioner nor his wife had outgrown their affection for a Dobermacn dog to which both were equally devoted. As the Sarkanys were unable to decide on the fate of the dog, which they desired to be legally included in the verdict, they were obliged to postpone the making absolute of the divorce until some agreement could be arrived at. The citation of a similar problem in a Berlin newspaper eventually caused the husband to propose that the dog should remain his property, and be lent to the wife for an hour on one day of each week. The wife retorted with the counter-proposition that the dog should remain in her possession, and be lent to the husband for several hours at a time on several day's of the week. And on this arrangement the | divorce was finally concluded.
