New York World: Widows are popular
in the marriage market. Father Philip
McEnvoe, of South Bethlehem, Penn.
who has recently been making some ORR
ginal Investigations into the question of
marriage. reports that what strikes him
most forcibly is "the extraordinary de-
mand for widows He that
Is per cent of the would-be husbands in
his parish express a preference for wild
ows.
Men prefer widows for good reasons.
A widow is more apt to make home hap
~. because she is more settled and do
mestic. She is more prudent. She is like
ly to think more of her household duties
and less of finery.
A widow has a more sensible idea of
what marriage means. She has develop
ed beyond the sentimental stage and
knows that life is not all love and kisses.
She understands the needs of a home. She
does not expect her husband to be con-
tent with a smile when the house is un-
tidy and the dinner spoiled.
A study of the records of the divorce
court will show that when a mar marries
q widow there is less danger of trouble
in his home.
Too many young girls have no idea of
a wife's home duties.
Imagine a oun woman with any de-
gree of social standing in New York mar
rying a poor man and going into the
kitchen to cook the beefsteak and sweep
the floor Such wives We're common
enough 40 years ago.
Marriages are based more and more
upon money, instead Of upon c~ongenial-
ity and cooperation. Young girls read
the fashion notes until their only idea of
marriage is to find a rich husband who
| will pay their millinery and dressmaking
bills.
So it is natural that young men who
want wives are expressing a preference
for widows. In the struggle for success
no man wants to be hampered by a life
| partner who will not share his efforts.

he swung backward and Onward in per-
Eject rhythmic time to overcome the
tendency to jerkiness common TO begin
ners. All that is necessary after the
course is completed is to drop the pupil
in the water. when, presto, she swims
The exercises recommended are to be
practiced out Of the water till they be-
come mechanical, the arms first, the legs
after. to be operated on a stool, form, or
an enpt box
The arm movement is divided into
four details. In ordinary swimming they
are performed with one continuous mo-
ton. If practiced faithfully success is
assured.
We will suppose the water line between
the chin and mouth to be represented by
fastening a piece of string across the
room. The pupil stands before it. II
there are several pupils they should
stand five feet apart, SO that their arms
do not interfere.
When the first signal is given, the
elbows bend at the waist. wrists are
brought together in front Of the chest
in a line with the armpits. palms facing
downward, with an angle Of about As
degrees from the wrists to the tips Of the
fingers: knuckles slightly bent upward to
make the palm cOncave; eight fingers
touching with thumb closing the con-
caved palms. so that the two thumbs are
back to back. touching.
| In water these details are very apt to
be forgotten unless well practised.
The angle of the palm from the wrist
to the tips of the fingers is the same as
that of a kite: the combination of forces
produced is the same. one of a ton,
as the arms are thrust suddenly and
very quickly forward Here the arms
rest longest, as they offer least resist
ance in this position.
While the limbs are s%pringing and inn
pelling the body through the water the
concave formation of the fingers and
thumbs is kept the same all through the
four details of the stroke. The angle Of
the palm is changed at every detail, so
that whichever way the palm is about to
progress this angle is retained, but in
carrying a weight the palm ~instinctively
hangs to nearly a horizontal to obtain
better support and less speed.
The next position is to turn the palms
at right angles outwardly by rising the
little finger side of the palm, keeping
about four inches below the surface.
that it may not be disturbed in front Of
|the mouth. You are to describe a half
circle until the movement brings the
arms in the form of a cross. Be careful
in this combined movement of support
and propulsion that the elbows are not
bent, fur the further one can reach with
the tips of the fingers the better pur-
chase he has of the water.
Learn to master the stroke gently and
not skip the details in quicker move
! ments in water.

LEARNING TO SWIM
ON DRY LAND
After You Have Mastered the Art
You Can Easily Begin. to Swim
in the Water.

A fashionable swimming instructor is
first teaching his pupils to swim on dry
land SO to speak. The results have
been so satisfactory that the method
promises to become general in the near
future.
The pupil is suspended from the cell
ing of an ordinary room by means of
four ropes, which are fastened to the
corners of a piece Of nva about 10
inches wide and just the length of the
body. In this, as in a cradle, the pupil
rests at the angle that would be as
sumed when swimming, and thus swing
ing clear of the floor, goes through all
the motions necessary to an easy pro-
pulsion in the water.
TO assist the pupil to acquire the
proper movements, strings are fastened

When the scientists broke open the

We're touched at the pathetic sight: for,
in the arms of the woman was tightly
clutched a child, a tender infant not over
a few weeks old. and around the child
was wrapped a thin sheet of stone. deli

of an animal had petrified there.
The queen and her baby had been bur
led together and at her feet stood an urn
a great handsome thing, probably that Of
her husband. for none but he could lie so
near the queen in death. Around her lay
many large skeletons, probably of her
braves who died after her and We're bur-
led as ar ever silent bodyguard.
The English societies have read of this
remarkable find, and, after much thought
and delay, have decided to send delegates
over to investigate it. hoping to be able
to read the tablets which have baffled
Amricans. 1t is likely, from the difficulty
of d~eciphering them. that they are plan
