The growing frequency of divorce which
already in one State sunders the bonds OF
one marriage i'm every seven, is becoming
serious menace TO the sacredness of family
life in many parts Of the country. 1t
was recently stated that couple IN The
highest New York circles sought and found
relief in divorce from incompatioihty oil

Of a Young couple from the same circles,
who started out on a bridal trip across the
Atlantic. but returned NOT together, and
soon found legal separation in a divorce
court. and it is not stated whether the Toss
lngs Of Neptune alone broke the fragile
bonds Of mairimony.

in a distant territory, TO search for gold and
silver, with plain, faithful wife at his side

THE International Labor Conference, now
in session in Berlin, will be watched with
interest, not only by all who give any study
TO questions involving the relations of capi-
tai and labor. but also by those who are OBJ
serving the development of the Young Em-
perors character. 10 seems unlikely that
this conference was called together with the
consent of the great Chancellor unless bis
opinions have changed in the most radical
uav since 1850. he has hitherto been "a
strorg opponent of conferences resembling
the present assembly in Berlin, as well as
every form of interference ON the part of
the government between employers and
employees. Its highly probable that Bis
mark had 90 subordinate his views and
wishes 10 those OF his sovereign, who APP
pears 90 be q man of as strong convictions
and as determined will as his iliustrious
minister. The public opinion of the world
will commend the resolution of the Empero.

will al least amelioraie the condition oftho

housewives and cooks have become 80 much

This is precisely fhc reason why bin has
been introduced in Congress 90 impose tax
upon compound lard, of which a pure and
wholesome vegetable oil is the main insro-
dent.
The fact that this PARTED policy has been
adopted by Con. eSs against OleOmargarine
is no argument In its favor Bad as the ole
omargarinc tax is In It's iniqut0us discrimi-
aation. tax upon artificial lard would be
still worse. inasmuch as the cohsumnti0n ef

Instead Of following a vicious precedent.
the wiscst policy would be 90 abandon it.
Representative Butferw0rth. who is "a lead

might as well propose 20 put taxes upon

proposition shows tO what an extent The
