Can petition for divorce under:

• (a) had since the celebration of the marriage committed adultery
• (b) deserted the petitioner without cause for a period of at least three years immediately preceding the presentation of the petition
• (c) since the celebration of the marriage treated the petitioner with cruelty
• (d) A spouse could also petition on the ground that the other was incurably of unsound mind and had been continuously under care and treatment for a period of at least five years immediately preceding the presentation of the petition.
