A crippled man of an eastern city had for years shuffled about the business district soliciting orders for showcards. He died last week and his friends â€" for he had many despite his miserly habits- wondered if he really had any mo- ney. They made a search of his room and found eight bank pass- books; also several glass jars and boxe.H crammed with silver and cop- per coins. The total value of the estate will be about $30,000. In his effects also was found an eleven- year-old will which showed that the cripple's life-long frugality had been motivated by a fine, generous- feeling â€"the fear that his blind father might die a pauper and be buried in potter's field. The will provided an annua, income for the father, so he would not suffer want. But the father has been dead four years. Now three cousins will each get $10,000.

She had the mis- fortune last June of falling and break- ing her hip, and had never recov- ered from the effects of it. She bore the pain with great fortitude and resignation, the end coming as a welcome release, and with joyous expectation of the better life beyond this vale of tears. Deceased wUose maiden name was Hannah Bristow, was born in Yorkshire county, Eng- land, she came to Canada with her parents at the tender age of two years, who settled near Rob Roy. In the year 1869 ^he was united in mar- riage to the late William Brown who predeceased her forty one years ago. She leaves to mourn her passing five daughters and two sons namely: Evangeline, Mrs. F. N. Weldrick, Fev- orsham; Louisa, Mrs. F. J. Hawton, Stayner; Annie, Mrs. Annie Wright, Feveuham; Alice, Mrs. N. R. Jeffrey, Montney, B.C.; Sarah, Mrs. Sarah Wright, Feversham; William of Grand Valley and Frederick of Feversham. One dau;,'hter, Ethel May, Mrs. T. W. Conron, predeceased her eight years ago. Twenty-nine grand children and eighteen great grandchildren also Cheaper Divorces; More Of Them As far as Toronto is concerned there is no depression in the divorce mar- ket. At least, a look at the figures available at Osgoode Hall would ap- pear to bear this out. The past year over 200 Toronto couples disagreed to such effect that they received final or what are termed 'absolute' decrees. Since the new divorce legislation be- came operative in Ontario 260 To- ronto hiwbands and wives have reach- ed the parting of the way. The first divorce to be made absolute was on August 31, 1931, and in the remainder of that year 40 more absolute deci-ees were granted. The total for last year was 219. There is no doubt that the now div- orce legislation worked out to the benefit of the couples with not too much mopey. Prominent divorce lawyers informed the Toronto Tele- gram that the average cost of an un- defended divorce action is now about .$200, whereas in the days when it was necessary to go to the senate at Ottawa, the cost was never less than S500, and usually more. Of course, the cost depends a great deal, they say, upon the financial condition of the parties. Some undefended divorce actions lately have been put through survive and two brothers, William 'h« "^"""-'s and the absolute decrees obtained for as low as $100.
