The discovery' was made when a woman to whom the judge had pranted a divorce turned to him and said: "I thank you from the bottom of my heart judge." The court withhe'd comment until the woman and her attorney had left the room, when he confided to his close workers: "There's one thing I don't like. I wish they wouldn't say 'Thank You' when they pet a divorce. They make me feel like a czar. The attorneys do it. too, occasionally. Why should they thank me for doing my duty? I don't think it is necessary and I know I don't like it. All that they have to do here is to produce the evidence, show that they come Into court with their own hands clean, and that the interests of the state will be taken care of if the decree is pranted, and that is all. There is no 'Thank You' necessary."
