The Rev. Talmage gives the following
as guide to young ladies who contcm.
plate marriage
eff there be good moral character, ac.
companied by affiuent circumstances, /
congratulate you. If not, LET the morn
ing lark fly clear of the Rocky Mountain
eagle. The sacrifice of women on the
alter of social and financial expectation
is cruel and stupendous The marriage
day comes and goes. The wedding ring
was costly enough. and the benediction
solemn enough, and the wedding march
stirring enough. And the audience shed
tears of sympathetic gladness, supposing
that the craft containing the two has
sailed on a placid lake, although God
knows that they arc launched on Dead
Sea, its waters are brackish with tears
and ghastly with faces of despair float
ing TO the surface and then gsing down.
Before things are right in this world
genteel Williams are TO be expurgated.
Ins .ead of being welcomed into respect
able society because of the amount OF
stars and garters and medals and estates
the represent they ought 10 be fumigated
two or three years before they are al
lowed, without peril TO themselves. 10
put their hand to the door-bell of moral
house. The time must come when q
masculine estray will be as repugnant to
to good society as feminine estray, and
no coat of arms or family emblazonry or
epaulets can pass Lothario unchal-
lenged among the sanctities OF home
life.
What spectacle 1t was when last
summer much Of watering place society
went wild with enthusiasm over the un-
clean foreign dignitary whose name in
both hemispheres is a synonym for pro-
fligacy, and princesses of American So
ciety from all parts of the land had him
ride in their carriages and sit at their
tables, though they knew him to be q
portable lazerratto, charnal house of
p .trefaction, his breath a typhoid,
his boot that of u Satyr and his touch
death.
High worldly marriage is not necos-
sary for woman, or marriage of any kind,
in order to increase your happiness.
Celibacy has been honored by the best
being that ever lived and His apostle

singular pattern which you can sell at
about $4 and make profit, the govern

well, but it is better not to fire them.

guns. He might be preparing revolu-

him one day. The fellow took the gun to

A Sin Not to Doubt.

The Rev. Hugh o. Pentecost since his
retirement from an orthodox church in
Newark, N. j., has opened up new
field in theology in New York. At the
Masonic Temple in that city on Sunday
last he addressed his Unity" congrega-
ton. Minister Pentecost said:
"That his pulpit was built to encourage
religious rationalism. Not the school of
rationalists, he explained, but to induce
the habit of independent thinking in re
ligious matters. The Catholic doctrine
of the Immaculate Conception of the Vir-
gin Mary. the Protestants' faith in the
three Gods in onc-three times one are
one-the Hebrews, the Agnostics', the
Atheists beliefs, whatever the doctrines,
those holding them would be hidden vel
come there if only they knew what they
believed, and believed it because they
had examined it.
If any man says these questions are
mysteries and not to be examined inte.
that man is an enemy of the human race;
instead of it being sin to doubt, in
these days it is sin not 10 doubt"
The speaker said that the cardinal point
in his doctrine was that men should be
better. He did not care especially TO
make his hearers Christians, but he want
ed to make them good.
The last point of the discourse was on
the brotherhood of man, which he said
was the greatest principle. Il shall use
all the little force | have through life Is
endeavoring to establish love Of man.

Remarlkable Presence Of Mind.

Pat Hoolihan, while stating the roof Of

Over and over he went until within
twenty-five feet of the pavement, when
he struck telegraph wire and managed
to grasp it, first with one hand, then with
both.
Hang on for your life, Pat = shouted

rushed to the nearest dwelling for mat

Pat held on for few seconds; when
suddenly, with a cry of "Shtand from

During the past two seasons Mr.. L. B.
Poulton has made observations which
prove that the silk of at least three species
of English moths is greatly affected in
color by environment at the time of spin

when the larvae had been placed in q black

when they had been freely exposed to

The fact that 1900 fires out of 2,415,
which occurred in New York city last
year, were extinguished by buckets of
water, shows the good resulting from
watchfulness on the part of owners and

and manufacturing establishments. 1t
