TEMPERANCE LAW IN CoNNEcrIcUr. The
new Temperance bill introduced in the Senate in
place of that previously passed by the House and
ected by the former passed the Senate on Thursday
14to7. 1t provides for the appointment in each
town Of three Commissioners, whom is conferred
tbe'whole power of granting refusing licenses.
This will put the whole matter in the hands of the
people; if majority are opposed to the granting of
licenses, they will of course elect Commissioners to
carry out their views We hope the bill will pass
the House aud become law. ~ ----L 1919.

About Getting Married.

Dow, Jr., the far-famed Patent-preachcr Of
the New York "Sundoy Mercury" recently
discour scd to the marriageable young men, as
follows:
Young man ! if you have arrived at the right
point in life for il, let every other consolation
give way to that Of getting married. Don't
think Of doing any thing else. Keep poking
abont among the rubbish of the world til you
have stirred upa gem worth possessing in the
shape of wife. Never think Of delaying the
matter; for yon know delays are dangerous A
good wife is the most constant and faithful com
panion You can possibly have by your side while
performing the journey of lfe--a dog isn't a
touch TO her.-She is of more service too than
you may at first imagine. She can smooth
your linen and your cares for you-mend yonr
trousers and perchance your mnnners.--sweet-
en- your sour moments as well as your tea and
coffee for you-rnfile, perhaps, your shirt bosom,
but not your temper; and, instead Of sowing the
seeds of sorrow in your path, she will SOW but
tons on yonr shirts, and plant happiness instead
of harrow teeth in your BOSOM Yes--and If
you are too confnundedly lazv or too proud TO do
such work Yourself, she will chop wood, and
potatoes for dinner: for her love for her hus-
hard is such that she will do any thing To please
him-except receive company in her every dav
clothes. When a woman loves. she loves wi Il,
a double distilled devo,edness; AMI when .S.
hates, on the high pressure principle. Her hyo
s as deep as the ocean, as strong os heapcn
halter, and as irnmutable as the rock Of ages
She won't change it, except it is in very
strong fit of jealousy and even then j, fingers.
as if 10th TO depart like evening twilight a, the
windows OF the west Get married, by all
mpans-All the excusesy yon can fish up against
"doing the deed" amt worth spoonful Of
pigeons milk. Mark this-if best with
health and employment, YOU are not able 10 sup
port wife, depend upon it, you are not cspuble
of supporting yourself Therefore. 80 much

well as in an onion, there is strength. Get
