MATRIMoNY AND SUCCESS.
Max o'ReIl on the Question, "Does
Marriage Help MANI"

Max O'Rell, the wellknown writer
and lecturer, discusse as follows in
the New York Journal the interesting
question, Does Marriage Help a
MANI
Does marriage help man?
Wen, if he marries a rich wife, OF
course it does; but, you see, money
helps, wherever it comes from, and
so we must put this consideration out
of the question altogether.
Let us also say, and at once, too,
that if man finds happiness in mat
rimony marriage will help him, what
ever his position may be; but happi-
ness, too, helps, wherever it comes
from, and so we must put this con-
sideration out of the question also.
And, before answering the question,
or, rather, before presenting argu-
ments both in the affirmative and in
the negative, we must examine the
different positions that a man may
occupy in life.
In commercial pursuits marriage
will help man. If money-making is
the chief concern of his life an at
tentive, interested and saving wife
will enable man to devote all his
mind to business, and, by a careful
management of her house, will also
enable him to amass wealth.
II man holds a post OF response
bility-a government one, for ex-
ample, in the diplomatic service. in
the civil service, in the church. in
the university professions-a wife
possessed of attractive charms.
ainiabie and tactfui will help him. for
let us remember that in England. as
well as in all countries where il is
sought to always appoint the right
man in the right place before decid-
ing on a candidate for any i'm
portant vacant post, the first question
that is asked is: What kind of a wife
has he got? The kind of wife that
will help such man is the one that
win help him socially and diplomatic
cally, by wire-pulling. If you IKE.
Now, if interviewers set any value
on their comfort,-nay. on their lives
i advise them to avoid this topic.
for the question is not only a very
big one, but very uncomfortable one
indeed, considering that the very men
who are called upon to answer it must
put down little conversation l quite
recently had on she subiectiover a cup
Of tea with a Charming English lady.

petiging after the refreshments OF
more congenia- climes. To regale
himself on tho national beverage on
the smoked and melted snow, on de-
coction of herbs in milk. en- oil OBJ
tanned from fish, or on barley water
favored with tallow. and. if circum-
stances will permit, the blood of rein
deer would be the last resource of the
thirsty.
Below this region of snow. with its
vast ice palaces, its polar bears, its
seals, its icebergs, beneath this land oil
pigmy humanity, is the sea. This vast
sea is full of life. Miniature ships OF
all nations. from the brown-sailed
irnks of China to the British man-of
war, are floating in the water. Finny
monsters come lazily forward to stare
at each intruder, curious fish dart
hither and thither among the coral
banks and the exquisite flora of the
ocean deep.
1t becomes necessary to undergo a
terrible ordeal. These waters have tC
be explored. If the diving suit is toe
formidable. one cannot, at least, refuse
an excursion in torpedo boat. In
fact, it is relief that below the sea
the shaft does not penetrate to where
the interior fires of the earth are burn
, ing. Otherwise the cooking for the
restaurants of the Champs DIES Mars
might have been performed cheaply
and conveniently over subterranean
fires.
The visitor. terrified at the enter
prise he has undertaken; the visitor

who has been flying in the air one mo
ment, and the next hobnobbing with
the fish, is already anxious to leave
the shaft. and to find himself once
more upon terra firma. The rabbit
hole, which led Alice to her Wonder
land, was, in fact, Insignificant beside
this pit.

a surface area of $4,000 feet. Some
idea of the vastness of the work is con-
veyed by the fact that if the material
composing the covering were unrolled
it would form band one foot in width
and four miles in length. In order
that the globe may be properly in
spected it is surrounded by circular
wall, round which runs series of gal
leries. The globe itself revolves slow
ly, thus permitting the spectator to
view every part.
Every place of any note is given and
all towns of 5000 inhabitants, while
larger towns are marked according to
scale. Various colors are employed to
distinguish between sea and land, for
est and desert, while every zone has a
different shade. The ocean and wind
currents, the differences of atmos-
pheric pressure and of temperature.
and the variations of the magnetic
needle are all given, together with the
distribution of the various races of man.
kind and the worlds fauna and flora.
No branch of geography, therefore, in
the widest meaning of the word, is
neglected. and a proper study of the
globe should in itself form liberal
education.

But Paris will have even more
wonderful exhibit To pass from the
north pole to the equator, from the
cold of winter to the heat of summer,
one leaves this miniature globe and
finds ones way across the exhibition
grounds to where an enormous shaft
with radiating galleries is now being
sunk into the earth. This pit is as
deep as the Eiffel tower is high, and,
like the Eiffel tower, will be provided
with an elevator.
AS you descend every variety of eli
mate is experienced. Added to this
the four elements are represented.
From a region where aerial navigation
is the chief attraction, where. in fact,
one may hire a pair of wings and be-
come for the nonce bird, one passes
to the torrid zone with its tropical
vegetation and it's birds of gorgeous
piumage, Here one may peep into
volcanoes, ride on elephants and
camels, and refresh ones self after the
exertion on curries and delicious fruits
served by dusky attendants in snowy
white.
In defiance of all geographical posi-
hilities. the north pole is barely steI
from the equator. The transforms
ton is extraordinary.
The splendor and luxury OF the
oriental world have disappeared
Reindeer and dogs take the place oil
