THE MARRIAGE RELATION.
Proper Condition for the Highest Devel-
opment of Humanity.

Proper Condition for the Highest Devel-
opment of Humanity.
Make the marriage right and the Off
spring will tend to be right. Perhaps it
may be true that we need new ideal
in which the woman promises to obey
the man is perishing visibly before our
modern eyes. Often she ought not to do
so, for man may be fool or brute.
And the theory adopted by many ILL
mated couples that marriage is a
discipline is too cynical to be either
true or attractive. The theory of easy
divorce and freqHentchange as remedy
for ordinary disagreements has also Sc
rious disadvantages, and is no sound
remedy. It is only poor refuge from
immediate suffering. But new and,
perhaps, useful attitude may be gained
by looking upon matrimony, as it is, in
truth, the only complete condition of hui
manity. In no other relation can man or
woman reach their highest develop
ment. No character is full till it COM
prises it's opposite. The very diver
gencies at which each party frets are
the lacking necessities of it's own nat
ure. Each would be partial and narrow
without the other, and the new motto
we may propose for matrirnony is the
new word, development. Marriage is
development. If not quite happy, it is
still generously educational. II love
dies out from it, yet charity, wisdom,
tact and liberality of mind may remain
in it. Blind love may indeed remain
and leave the happy lovers without its
best effects, since even love may remain
narrow and selfish. But the man who
has learned to comprehend the feminine
nature with its delicate, sprightly,
graceful qualities in his own, and the
woman who has adopted something of
masculine independence, liberality and
courage into her constitution. will be
far better than the sole endowment nat
ure would have given either to be alone.

ZETETIC PHILOSOPHY.

One OF Its Disciples Tries to Prove That
the Earth Is Flat.
The Zetetic philosophy, which proves
absolutely and without a shadow of
doubt that the earth is plane and not
planet, has in it no theories, but estab-
fishes its conclusions upon facts alone.
Many of these facts are of such a nature
that not to know all about them will
soon be deemed sign of ignorance.
The people should know that the sur
face of standing water is level, whether
it be in the form of a pond, lake, a
canal, a sea or an ocean, and that it
makes no difference at all how many
people, in consequence of false teach
ing, believe it to be curved;
that in no surveyors operations
IN the construction of railroads,
tunnels, or canals is any allowance
made for the curvature" of the earth s
surface, although the books tell us that
it is necessary; that the view from a
balloon in the air is that of fiat earth
and not of a globe; that the river Para
quay in 500 miles does not fall foot
that for the last 500 miles the Amazon
falls but 10 feet 6 inches-and that the
Nile in 1000 miles falls but foot
Sailors can see the light at Cape Hat
5eras forty miles out at sea, whereas on
the globe theory it ought to be more
than 600 feet below the level line of
light; strain your eyes as you please,
you can never see a ship coming up"
for at the farthest distance that you can
by any means see ship it is on a level
with the eye; the horizon always rises on
and on just as you rise on; if the mariner
were to take a globe with him with
