Home Dictionary Name: mere wareGlass ware
Glass ware, the dictionary meaning of the expres-sion 'glass ware' is 'articles made of glass' (see WEBSTER'S NEW WORLD DICTIONARY).However, in commercial sense glass ware would never comprise articles like clinical syringes, thermometers, lectometers, and the like which have specialised significance and utility. In popular or commercial parlance a general merchant dealing in 'glass ware' does not ordinarily deal in articles like clinical syringes, thermometers, medical stores or with the manufacturers thereof like the assessee. It is equally unlikely that consumer would ask for such articles from a glass ware shop. In popular sense when one talks of glass ware such specialised articles like clinical syringes, thermometer, lectometers and the like do not come up to ones mind, Indo International Industries v. Commissioner of Sales Tax, AIR 1981 SC 1079 (1081): (1981) 2 SCC 528: (1981) 3 SCR 294. [U.P. Sales Tax, (15 of 1948)]...

En ventre sa mere
En ventre sa mere. [Fr. In its mother's womb.] A child in the womb of the mother is for most purposes regarded in English law as being already born. But there are certain important exceptions. For example, if a child is killed whilst it is within the womb, it cannot be the subject of a murder or manslaughter charge, but otherwise if it receives injuries whilst in the womb which occasion its death after birth, R. v. Senior, (1832) 1 Moo CC 346. In civil matters also the fiction of birth is only to be applied if the maintenance of the fiction is for the child's benefit and not its detriment, Villar v. Gilbey, 1907 AC 139, but it has lately been held by the House of Lords that the doctrine does not apply where a benefit is not destined directly to the child and is only for his indirect benefit, if any: Elliot v. Joicey (Lord), 1935 AC 209, and see LQR, January, 136, for a note on the case. Subject to the narrowing of the doctrine by Elliot v. Joicey, ubi. Sup., a liberal interpretation wi...
