Why Men Dcfcr Marriagcs

The habits of modern young men
are antagOniStic to that prudence and
preparation which make it possible
for them to marry at twenty-five,
writes John Lambert Payne in an eX-
haustive article upon this important
question in the Ladies' Home Jour
nal. There arc many exceptions, Of
course, but it may be safely said that
a vast number Of the young men who
live in our time fill their spare hours
with exhaustive luxuries. 1t costs
them Il great deal to dress, and still
more TO keep up their social engage
ments. In a score Of ways they ac-
custom themselves to ways Of life
that leave no margin between income
and outgo. This having gone on un-
til they are twenty-five, IL then calls
for more resolution than many of
them command to begin the sacrifices
which accompany the saving OF
money. Without money they cannot
marry. Not a few greatly exaggerate
what it should take two sensible peo-
pie to begin life on, and hastily con-
clude that it would be impossible, on
an income Of 1000, TO start in COM
fort. So they put off marriage until
after thirty, or do not marry at all,
and it is well that such men should
remain single. We do not need any
such weak fiber in the coming gener-
~ inn
The true northerner. [volume] (Paw Paw, Mich.) 1855-1920, 1892-11-09
Lie I'm China.

The singular conditions Of life at
Annoy, the metropolis OF the great
Chinese province of Fukien, have
been the theme Of an interesting re-
port of the United States Consul at
that city, Mr.. Bedloe. Annoy, which
is city of about million people,
and the center Of a densely populated
region is perhaps the cheapest place
in the world. Workingmen live and
support large families on fifteen cents
a day, and are said TO he rs happy as
wOrkingmen anywhere.
The daily fare Of an Annoy work
ingman and its cost to him are about
as follows: One and a half pounds of
rice, costing three cents: one ounce
of meat, one ounce Of fish, two ounces
OF shell-hsh, one cent altogether;
one pound Of cabbage or other vege-
table, one cent: fuel, salt and oil,
one cent; total, six cents.
This is much better fare than many
European laborers enjoy. In what
little time the Annoy workingman can
find from his toll, he flies kites, plays
shuttlecock, and INDUCES in mild
practical jokes on his friends. He
goes TO bed early, and worries about
nothing.
The wife and children of the Chi
nese family gather driftwood, edible
sea-moss, shell-tish, mushrooms and
dead branches. Some Of the things
they pick up they barter for rice and
vegetables. Sometimes woman and
her children provide in this way all
the food Of the family.
Small boys earn a few copper coins
by marching in religious professions,
at funerals, wakes, eXorcisms, we'd
d:ngs and other ceremonies.
At eight years of age boy begins
his life calling, which usually is the
same as his fathers. Indeed, chill
dren in China begin to work as soon
as they can walk. A boy or girl four
years Cid will carry the baby piggy
back" half an hour at time, and
mind it from dawn to dusk.
The house is usually an indepen-
dent structure, small, and containing
two rooms-a living-room and a bed
room. The windows are small, high
and nearly blocked up with wooden,
iron or stose bars. The rent Of a
house of four or five rooms averages
five cents a day.
One of the saddest things about
child life in China is the early en-
enlargement of gambling on the part
of the boys. On every street in the
daytime and early evening may be
seen groups of children around a ped
dler, gambling for cake, fruit, or a
small amount Of money. Gambling
is the great curse of the Chinese peo-
pie, robbing the workingmcn Of their
savings and corrupting the politics Of
the country.
In spite Of their hard woSk and
their few indulgences, Chinese chill
dren manage to be happy on the
whole, as children will be the world
over.-Youths Companion.
