Applying border-right to all elements except the last one

I have Wordpress pages looking like this: Page 1 | Page 2 | Page 3 |

I don't want a border-right on Page 3. How can I delete it?

.primary-navigation {
  float: left;
}
.primary-navigation a {
  margin-top: 16px;
  margin-bottom: 12px;
  padding-left: 23px;
  padding-right: 23px;
  border-right: 1px dotted #7b7f82;
  position: relative;
  line-height: 1;
}
.primary-navigation .menu-item-has-children a {
  padding-right: 35px
}
<div id="primary-navigation" class="primary-navigation" role="navigation" itemscope itemtype="http://schema.org/SiteNavigationElement">
  <nav id="navigation" class="navigation clearfix mobile-menu-wrapper">
    <a href="#" id="pull" class="toggle-mobile-menu">
      <?php _e( 'Menu'); ?>
    </a>
    <?php if (has_nav_menu( 'primary-menu')) { ?>
    <?php wp_nav_menu(array( 'theme_location'=>'primary-menu', 'menu_class' => 'menu clearfix', 'menu_id' => 'menu-primary-menu', 'container' => '', 'walker' => new mts_menu_walker)); ?>
    <?php } else { ?>
    <ul class="menu clearfix" id="menu-primary-menu">
      <?php wp_list_pages( 'title_li='); ?>
    </ul>
    <?php } ?>
  </nav>
</div>

.primary-navigation a {
    margin-top: 16px;
    margin-bottom: 12px;
    padding-left: 23px;
    padding-right: 23px;
    /* border-right: 1px dotted #7b7f82;   <-- REMOVE from this declaration block */
    position: relative;
    line-height: 1;
}

.primary-navigation a:not(:last-child) {
    border-right: 1px dotted #7b7f82;
}

Using the :not() negation and :last-child pseudo-classes, all anchors are given the border, except the last one.

Just FYI, this method may be simpler:

a + a {
    border-left: 1px dotted #7b7f82;
}

Using the adjacent sibling selector, a left-side border can be applied to all anchors immediately following another anchor. This means no left-side border on the first anchor, and no right-side border on the last anchor.

You can use CSS selector :not(:last-child) to select all your element BUT the last.

ul.menu {
  list-style-type : none;
  padding : 0px;
}

ul.menu > li {
  display : inline-block;
  padding-right : 2px;
}

ul.menu > li:not(:last-child) {
  border-right : solid 1px black;
}
<ul class="menu">
  <li>Page 1</li>
  <li>Page 2</li>
  <li>Page 3</li>
</ul>

Use the :last-child pseudo-class to set border-right: none; on the last <a> in your .primary-navigation.

.primary-navigation a {
    margin-top: 16px;
    margin-bottom: 12px;
    padding-left: 23px;
    padding-right: 23px;
    border-right: 1px dotted #7b7f82;
    position: relative;
    line-height: 1;
}

.primary-navigation li:last-child a {
    border-right: none;
}

Add this style to you css:

.primary-navigation { float: left; }
.primary-navigation ul {
    margin-top: 16px;
    margin-bottom: 12px;
    padding-left: 23px;
    padding-right: 23px;
    border-right: 1px dotted #7b7f82;
    position: relative;
    line-height: 1;
}
.primary-navigation ul:last-child {
    border-right: none;
}
<li class="primary-navigation">
<ul class="menu clearfix" id="menu-primary-menu">Page 1</ul> 
<ul class="menu clearfix" id="menu-primary-menu">Page 2</ul> 
<ul class="menu clearfix" id="menu-primary-menu">Page 3</ul> 
<ul class="menu clearfix" id="menu-primary-menu">Page 4</ul> 
</li>
