MATRIMONIAL ADVICE.

The preachers of New York have
opened bureaus of matrimonial advice
Rev. Madison Peters of the Blooming
dale Reformed church recently took
for text a verse from the exquisite
pastoral of Ruth:
The Lord grant that you may find
rest each of You in the house of her
husband"
DR.. Peters described the giving in
marriage as the most solemn thing in
life, and he wanted to give the young
women of his congregation some yalu-
able hints upon the choice of hus-
band
Il. | warn you against the snare Of
appearances, he said There are
tricks in love as we'll as in trade One
OF them is to make things seem to be
what they are not As you value your
life, do not marry a manikin, hatters
show block, a tailor's lay figure.
-. Never marry a man to mend
him OF reform him. If a man will not
reform to please his sweetheart he will
never do so to please his wife | am
the father of two little girls, and rather
than that they should marry men who
drink | should prefer to see them

hand, do not marry for ambition DO

Il know it is accounted silly thing
to marry for love, but the woman who

Don't hesitate to marry poor man
but be sure that he has something

And here let me say. marry man

who lives off the earnings of his father
until he can find a girl who is fool

MAYOR CALLAGHAN AND THE
SCHOOL QUESTION.

Mayor Callaghan has drawn public
attention to the issue which has been
made relative to an election to decide
whether the schools shall pass from
under the control of the city council,
and into the hands of a board of trus-
tees to be elected by the people. At
the last meeting of the city council the
mayor made a statement that he had
been mandamused to show cause why
he had not ordered an election on the
demand of a number of citizens; he ex-
pressed his opinion in regard to the
proposed change and gave some
strong reasons for his opposition at the
present time; the most potent one was
the lack of money to meet the eX-
pense of these special elections.
The mayor did not make this state~
ment with a view to securing endorse
ment from the council, but a motion
was made to this effect and through
misunderstanding on the part of the
majority of the council was voted
down. AS the mayor, alone is con-
cerned in the mandamus, the council
could be of no assistance to him.
Should the court hold that the mayor
must carry out the request of the pc
titioners, then the council will be call
ed on to provide the money to conduct
the election.
Experience has proven that the man
agement of the public schools has been
best served by separate boards. And
as it is a question of vital interest to
the public the lesson of experience
should be needed. In the present in
stance the mayor upon whom rests
the burden of compliance with the law,
finds himself confronted with a con-
dition and not a theory. The city is
short of funds, is behind several months
with it's creditors, every dollar is
pledged in advance of its receipt, un-
der such circumstances the mayor feels
justified in fighting for time. That
is all there is about it.
