MARRIAGE VERSUS SoME RECENT NoY-
ELs.-Marriage is part of, not apart
from human experience. Until we are
perfected in sphere beyond this, it will
remain an imperfect people. God gives
to it special and most divine helps, with
which two very faulty persons may go
happily and securely towards Him, if they
will. The nearness into which it brings
two contracted natures, if rightly accept
ed, becomes the source of charity and
better understanding to all the world.
This nearness is no crown of glory, but
a part of the discipline of the human
soul, and shares the character of all dis
cipline. Again, having made mis-
step in this relation; either having mar
married innocently a person who does
not realize expectations; life is no more
hopeless than under any other trial.
This is, of course, the sharpest of all tri-
ais, but it admits of alienation, and q
woman may, in spite of it, make home
happy and herself useful. 1t is obserVa-
BILE that, in the style of novel under
consideration, it is always The woman
who discards the man, and the man,
hero-fashion, is always wealthy and pros
yides abundantly for his idol u What
would happen if for once the husband
we're to discard the wife and then leave
her unprovided for? Again, in the books
it always happens that discordant mar
riages are childless; but it does not all
ways happen SO in life, and if the parents
of children are seen quarreling in this
way over their attractions and repul-
sions," the terrible consequences are re,
allied at once, and the selfshness and i'm
piety of the whole course is made appa-
rent. 1t is time that common sense put
an end to the foolish notion that there is
only one person living whom each ran
or woman can marry with any fair chance
of happiness.-C Commonwealth.
