Milwaukee rejoices that it is no
longer the Mecca of clipping couples.
DR.. ]. w. Coon, registrar Of the de-
partment of health, congratulates the
city upon having been freed from the
"elopement curse" He says that for
merly there was hardly a week when
there was not some one in Milwaukee
from Chicago, seeking information
about a runaway wedding, but now
there are no complaints. The True
bill has removed the stigma that at
tached to the state. Most Of the Chi
cago clippers now go to Michigan. 1t
is gratifying to notice that an effort
is being made to prevent such matches
in that state. A recent number of the
Michigan State Board Of Health bulle-
tin had long article complaining of
the laxity Of the marriage laws. The
legislature will probably adopt re-
form similar to that which put an end
to the Opponents to Wisconsin. If
it does pass such law 1t will be ap-
proved by everyone except the people
VINO make their living in the not re-
spectacle trade Of encouraging hasty
marriages.

The expected has happened in the
kingdom of Queen Victoria. Parlia-

for several years to come. Joseph
Chamberlain is the man of the victory.

spicuous in the legislature or the press

The deepest of love on the part OF
a woman may hamper man IN MS
ambition. 1t is brave woman, IN
deed, who will buckle on the SWORD
for the battle in the field. or the pat
tie of everyday life. and bid the man
she loves. whether it is son, Drother'
husband or sweetheart, to go forth
and dare and do. Her hands may
tremble and tears dim her eyes, put
her voice will sound brave and STEADY
as she says: go and God bless you
There are a hundred incidents where
Tom, Dick or Harry have gone away
from the home town, where the good
folk used to shake their heads ana
say they would never amount 10
much" and become men Of worth and
Importance. And just as many Toms'
Dicks and Harrys have been sad, sad
failures, and would have been much
better off at home. 1t all depends
upon the individual.
Women are more cautious than men.
They will not venture into the realm
of uncertainties; therefore, a sensible
womans opinion may be worth listen
ing to, at least. Every one OF us had
heard some man say: Had l only
listened to Molly would not have met
with the losses l have" And this
tribute to faithful Marys judgment
almost compensates the little woman
for the many sacrifices she is making
to catch up" in finances. Many
times 1t would be we'll to listen to
cautious Molly"
The ambitious man who is sure that
the woman folk of his family have
unlimited faith in what he can ac-
complish is blessed, and | hope he
properly appreciates his blessing. But
he generally does. and whether he tells
you so or not, you will guess it by the
happiness of his expression when he
wends his way homeward after busy
day.
Opportunities sometimes seek the
man, but more often the man must
seek the opportunities. or, at any rate,
grasp them the moment he sees them
peeping up over his horizon.

Concrete Took Fire.

Concrete is not usually classed
among the combustibles, so that the
recently reported taking fire Of a mass
of that compound in the boiler room OF,
an electric power station is particu-
larly interesting. A simple enough
explanation for the occurrence was,
however, found in the fact that the
concrete consisted Of one part in seven
of boiler furnace ashes, and that the
brick lining under the boilers was
omitted in one place, so that the fur
mace temperature was readily trans
mitted to the concrete The latter, as
the Electrical Review of London tells
it, became ignited, and the whole
block, eight feet deep. disintegrated;
in consequence it was found necessary
to pull down the brickwork of the boil
ers and remove the whole of the con-
crete block. In the present scarcity
of coal, the Review facetiously adds,
engineers may find it worth their
while to stoke with concrete!

New Metal, AIbradium.

Since the wholesale production and
consequent cheapening of aluminium,

albradium, perfectly white metal or

made into plates, tubes, rods, or orna-

said to be free from corrosion, and to
be extremely durable, while its price
