In order to be of practical service
in this world, man must have love
for some truth, or cause, or party, or
personal leader. and must be loyal to
the object of his devotion. No man
can compass any real good merely by
being a hater, scoffer, or a sneerer.
A mau may do harm to one side, or
to both sides. in any great contest, by
his hostility to one or both of the con.
testents; hut he would be of little
worth to either side through simply
disIiking the other side. You may
think that it shows your superiority
for you to say that you care little
who succeeds in conflict which
arouses the deepest feelings of your
fellows on every side of you hut the
history of the race shows that men
who are worth initiating have never
had that spirit as observers of the
struggles of humanity in their day.

Primitive Marriage Not so Easy.

In recent easy on the "Philoso.
ply of Marriage" a lady remarkad
that nothing could be easier and
simpler than marriage in primitive
society. Now one ventures to think
that, as society advances, MARRIAGE
becomes more instead of less simnle.
The consequences are to be found in

nit to having his little finger ton

knocked out, to being rudely shaved
with sharp stone, to being daubed

number of other horrors nelther
simple nor easy. The young Red
Indian in some tribes has to serve "a
slave for whole year In the cabin
of his future father-in-law. More
over, the rules about who might
marry whom were so notoriously
difficult and complex that often IL
must hardly have been possible to
marry at all. Consider likewise that
the tribes in which a man may not
marry unless he can buy a wife by
Offering a sister in exchange, and
recollect that the older menA ere

and that sisters who seemed "e1e too
many If not two" were sIair when
they were babies. Without fntering
into the question of difficulties that
surrounded the br de. it i evident
enough that marriage vas not in
primitive. or at least in back ward
society. such plain sailing as Mrs.
Lynn Linton appears to Believe. To
be sure it was easy enough in India,
where the Gandharva ceremony con-
sisted merely in lady and her lover
exchanging their wreaths of flowers,
while the Minitaree rite of shooting
arrows over the heads of the happy
pair was Dicturesquely simple. But
the difficulties before they came to
the ceremony were much greater
than in civilized society. or so one is
led to suppose. In fact, If people had
set conscientiously to work to make
marriage difficult and unattractive
they could hardly have succeeded
any better. Apparently "the course
of true love never did run smooth"
especially among the Zulus, whom.

Hes photographer any right to
sell photographs of one of his Gus
toners without the consent of the
customer That is an interesting
question which has just been decided
for the first time in England by the
High Court of Justice. Mrs. Pollard
sat for her photograph at the gallery
of the Photographic Company. Sub
sequently she learned that the com
pany had prepared copies for Christ
mas cards and were Offering them
for sale. She thereupon applied for
an Injunction to restrain this liberty.
The company contended that the
negative was their property and that
they had right to print copies from
1t for sale. Mr.. Justice North decide.
that photographer has no such right
unless he is expressly or by clear i'm
plication authorized to do so by the
sitter. He accordingly granted the
injunction.

Another bill not yet introduced,
