MATRIMONIAL ADVANCES The Rev
DR.. Bushnell, in his new book, ), The Re-
form Against Nature" writes on this
subjec, as follows:
'Full three quarters of the men who get
stuck in their bachelor life and are new
er married, are, in fact, the most Unborn
.dorers OF women, such as never in their
lives can muster courage for any adj
vance just because the shrine they look
upon has too much divinity in it for
mortal approach. Ofcoursei il will not
do for unmarried women to put them
selves in the way of suitors to men.
That Kind Of suitorship would even he
an offence, and raise a sense of revolu
ton; nobody would recommcn to wo-
men that they get over their mod esty;
but the almosfcolic stringency of what
are called good m anners, in this matter,
might be relaxed, without real impro-
priety and with great advantage The
present iron clad modesty, which is
simply ridiculous in either party,
might I've so farmitigated as to let feel
ing feel its way, and carry on its own
courtship; requiring no restriction save
the restriction of words and formal adj
yances, and allowing nature to interpret
and work out her problem, hampercd by
no unnatural coyishness Women can
not be forward and bold. but they are
now great way further off than they

STAFF RANK IN THE NA w.


In the discussion and settlement of any ques-
ton that arises with regard to the status of
the officers of the army or navy, their rights,
privileges eonveniences comfort and emolu-
ments, there are two considerations that are
of paramount importance-the efficiency of
the service and the good of the country
An officer, soldier, or sailor, in entering the
military service of the country, agrees to
submit to all the hardships that the perform
ance of his duty may entail upon him but,
on the other hand, the Government is bound
to see that these are not unnecessarily bur
densome and that the officers and men of the
army and navy are made as comfortable as
circumstances will permit.
The staff officers of the navy-the surgeons,
engineers, and aymasters-complain that
under the existing laws of Congress and
regulations of the Department, they fail to
receive that recognition that the Importance
and value of their services demand They
ask that they may have chance to win some
of the honors that belong to rank and posi-
ton, and to enjoy those privileges and COM
forts as regards quarters and the social rela-
tions of the mess table that rank carries with
ll lhO hnC, On JLO OIuCI hduu3 COub6uu
that to grant assimilated rank to the staff
would be to subvert all discipline-to place
the surgeon, paymaster, or engineer of
ship oftentimes above the legitimate COM
manding officer, and to send the navy finally
to what MIR. Mantilini calls ''the demnition
bow-wows." If there was any reason to be-
lieve that any such result as this would follow
from acceding to the demands of the staff
officers, the matter most certainly ought to
be carefully weighed before changeis made.
There is nothing, however, beyond the asser-
tion of the line officers to support any such
idea as this, and not a single argument worthy
of notice has been advanced to maintain their
position. On the contrary, the present state
of affairs is most certainly detrimental to the
interests of the naval service, as under it
the staff officers are discontented they
feel that they are looked down upon with
contempt by the line, and regarded as mere
civilians who have no rights that military
man and graduate of the Naval Academy is
bound to respect. There is a large number
OF vacancies now existing il the medical
