Marriage is still too often q bargain,
but at least it is no longer an entirely one
sided bargain. 1t is tending toward the
only true ideal lifelong companionship-a
partnership on equal terms, with equal
give and take on both sides. Women no
longer feel bound to render that implicit
obedience which was considered de rigueur
in our great-grandmo:her's days, and men
no longer universally demand it. Hus-
bands, moreover, are beginning to learn
that the prime duty is not to look after
their wives. The very sentence is indi-
cative Of the most CHASTITY Misrepresentation
Of the whole ideal Of matrimony. The gen.
eral feeling OF society condemns man
who lives to rule his wife, on the same
principle rs q pasha rules his harem.
And indeed the whole scheme Of modern
life makes it practically impossible for him
to do so. II girl is really In love with the
man she marries she may be trusted with
any amount Of subsequent freedom. II
not, not; and therefore we say that the in
judicious aud worldly parents who are re.
spousible for the great majority Of i'll
assorted unions are also responsible for the
many evil results which are to be seen IN
society at this day. For it 10 . fact that
lots Of English girls are as much forced
into marriage rs the French girl. whose
husband is selected while she is yet in the
convent Not by main force, but by the
whole tone Of her education aud BY the
persistent scheming Of her parents, and by
her own longing Tor emaucipation.-Psd

member.
She was the first President of the Wo-
mans Christian Temperance Union of this

ease prevented her from meeting with us.
She loved the cause of temperance and her
heart was in the work. Though deprived
of the privilege of meeting with us we al
ways feltassured we had her prayer for oul
progress. She was sympathetic friend
patient sufferer, and bore her long con.
tinned sufferings as none but Christian
could. In every kind OF Christian labor
she was competent and willing to do hel
share. Any service that she could render
to those with whom she was frequently
called to mingle was generously proffered
no matter how much self-denial it cost
We shall miss her counsel and loving
words of encouragement. We give oul
sympathy and our prayers to the bereaved
family.

A worthy charity.

Thanksgiving Day will be observed as
Donation Day at the New Jersey Home
for the education and care of feeble mind
ed children, located at Ninelaud, of which
Rev. S. O. Garrison is Superintendent.
The following circular has been issued in
regard to it:
In the development of this charity for
feeble-minded children it has been thought
wise to inaugurate donation Day.
The coming Thanksgiving Day has been
chosen. Gould more fitting time be
chosen for this charity than a national
thanksgiving season to awaken sympathy
in behalf of this neglected class among the
people? Our work is broad and undenom-
national. We are not confined to State
bounds. We are now caring for and train
ing nearly 80 children, gathered from three
States. Nearly all of this has been accom-
plished in little more than six months
We have a property valued at over $50, 600,
with a debt of only about $4,000 We
hope soon to be able to take more Of
strictly charitable cases. Perhaps this
card may start some to give us the nucleus
of an endowment fund
To aid our friends in selecting donations
for us the following suggestions are made.
Nearlyevery thing comes into play sooner
or later in some department of this many
sided work. While we always prefer do
nations OF money, we would welcome pro-
visions of any kind, fruits, vegetables,
groceries, poultry, clothing, hospital sup
plies, shoes, furniture, hardware, glass
ware. crockery, tnware, farm utensils;
books, toys, games, pictures-anything to
interest, instruct, or please children; year

steal instruments, kindergarten supplies,

Judge Garrison in Camden"on Saturday
dismissed the motion of Lawyer r. s.
Ridgway for a poll of the Grand Jury in
order to get the vote on the Indictment OF
Frank Shaw, a Stockton township saloon
keeper. The Judge said that no deposition
had been presented to the Court and there
was no proof to induce an investigation of
the finding Of the Indictment. He said
the question was as to whether the defend
ant had tho right to have the Court go
back of the Endorsement on the indictment
and inquire into the propriety or regularity
Of the proceedings of the Grand jury, the
result of which was there certified. There
can be found, he said, no authority for

A Great Gluf of AppIes.

There is a great glut in the apple market
at present. The crop, not only in the
apple growing New York counties, but
throughout the East, West and the Can
adas has been enormous, consequently the
home markets are oyerstocked and the ex-
port trade demoralized, owing to recent
exceptionally large shipments, notwith-
standing which fact the expectation of ap-
Piles last week reached over 100, coo barrels.
One county alone in New York is said to
have produced upwards of 100000 bar
rels There are millions of barrels stored
awaiting shipment to market, and com
mission merchants express fear that the
growers will, from necessity, throw the
greater portion of these on the market be-
fore the present surplus is gotten rid of,
and thus not only intlict great loss on
themselves, out still further demoralize
the market. On Saturday apples were
selling, in large lots, at from 81 to So a
