measurable harm. If husbands and wives may be bought off or on with the aid of the courts civilization has de- generated to a depth beside which Mormonism assumes an aspect of nor al grandeur. The court doubtless had no alternative. The deserted wife was confronted with the necessity of going to a public poorhouse at whose door she would be separated from her chil- dren. She did not bribe the court to give her a decree. That would have been hers anyway. Had the court been able to provide for the subsistence CT the deserted wife and children other wise he would have rejoiced to sene: the miscreant father to penitentiary, there to work, that his labor might be used in part to contribute to the main tenance of those helpless ones he had brought into the world. But such are the defects of our social legal system that the family deserter goes free and the polluted purchase money is paid by one wholly detached from legal ac- countability. Thus a criminal infatua- tion acquires judicial seal. Dishonor of wife, children, home is established as an encouraging precedent in the American courts. Divorce by purchase will be a more alluring gate hereafter for the absolute of the aristocracy of wealth. Reactio| cannot set in until wife desertion shall be added to the category of feIonies and the criminal shall be held in durance for the SUD- port of his victim and their children.

 An ignOramus, not knowing the au- thor of the line Though lost to sight, to memory dear," appealed to a per son of discretion. You don't mean to tell me you don't know?" laughed the person of discretion so rudely that the ignoramus slunk away ashamed. Plucking up his courage he approach ed a diplomatist: ''The same author that penned the line Consistency, thou art a jewell" was the answer. The ignoramus asked a man who Is never caught mapping. "Of course know the author" said the man who is never caught mapping. "It's ahem-confound 1t, I've forgotten. The name is on the very tip of my tongue, but-how stu pid-I know perfectly we'll. you know, but your asking me has knocked it clear out of my head" The ignoramus went to a wise man and told him all. ''Three separate students upon three separate occasions were asked three different questions" said the wise man, oracularly. ''The first question was, What was the exact number of the ancient Greek chorus? the second, What is the cause of the aurora bore alis?' the third, What is the source of animal heat? To each question each students gave the same answer, T know, but I've forgotten and each instructor. 1t is said, made the same comment. To think that the only man who ever knew should have for gotten? Still mystified, the ignoramus asked fool-there was no doubt about his being a fool. because everybody said so. His answer proved It.

The recent decision by a judge in New York that husband is entitled to his wife's earnings sounds as if it might be the judgment of some wise acre of comic opera. It Is surely pe- culiar partnership in which the head of the firm is entitled to all the junior partners profits, while the poor little junior partner is entitled to only so much of the seniors as he chooses grudgingly to dole out to her. Here's injustice for youl A married woman's wage-earning ability, according to the New York judge, belongs entirely to her husband. He may employ 1t or not, as he sees fit, and he may exact and expend for his own private use and pleasure the money accruing there from. Were the husband permanently disabled and unable to contribute any thing to the living expenses, then, this decree holds, the wife might have some jurisdiction over her wages, but other wise the man holds the purse-strings, even if the woman fills the purse. If such a law does not help to fill the ranks of the woman suffragists with married women who must work to SUD- port their lazy liege lords, nothing in the world will 1t is unfortunate that this class is usually too busy keeping the wolf from the door and putting food in the mouths of their infants to bother with legislatures and public meetings. One thing is certain, how ever, if one must work to support husband it had best be a sickly one. Indeed, sickly husbands are made de- sirable, after fashion, by this unjust law. Why the money that a woman works for should not be hers absolute ly, to spend as she pleases, to waste as she pleases, is yet to be shown, unless. indeed, all men are not created equal and the Declaration of Independence is in prror

Marry young" says Father Hogan, the oldest priest in Trenton, N. J. ''The question of salary should be no bar against this step. A young man earn ing $10 week and upward could keep a wife just as well as he can pay $5 week for board and attend the opera every night and take in all sorts of amusements. The young girls should take this advice home to themselves, too. They are as responsible as the young men. They will not marry a young man nowadays unless he Is earn ing large salary, so they can dress in silks and satins and make great show ing on the streets. If this step is not taken early in life the young man for ever abandons the idea of marrying after he has passed the 25-year mark" There is a great deal of this starting in where father and mother left off. But not all of these marriages are happy. More often the couple that struggles along up together from poverty to com- fort looks back with satisfaction at the way so painfully trod. There were les sons of life in 1t and character develop ment.

SUNSET ON THE FARM.

Down behind the western hill the red sun sinks to rest. All the world is weary, and am weary, . too. The partridge seeks it's covert, and the redbird seeks it's nest, And 1 am coming from the fields, dear heart, to home and you. Home when the daylight is waning; Home, when my toiling is done: Ah! down by the gate, sweet, watch
 ing eyes wait
 My coming at setting of sun. T he sheep from off the hillside haste to the shepherds fold, For death turks in the mountains and darkness comes apace. The fleeing sun looks backward and turns the sky to gold, Then folds the mantle of the night across its crimson face. Home when the daylight is waning; Home, when my toiling is done; Ah! down by the gate, sweet, watch
 ing eyes wait
 My coming at setting of sun. Lay aside the hoe and spade, and put the sickle by; All the world is weary, and am weary, too. Gently fades the rosy light from out the western sky, And am coming from the fields, dear heart, to home and you. Home when the daylight is waning; Home, when my toiling is done; Ah! down by the gate, sweet, watch
 ing eyes wait
 My coming at setting of sun. Agriculturist.

Publication of the Heron divorce pa pers, the Chicago Chronicle declares, discloses one of the most scandaIous transactions ever judiciaIly approved in civilized country. The wife alleged desertion of herself and children, fruit of five years marriage. The husband did not deny the charge, but. although Dotoriously impecunious and profes- sionally opposed to the right of private property, he settled upon his wife ali mony So generous that her attorneys advised the court of her acceptance of the settlement, and thus the proceed ings came to an end. The money, it is well known, was provided by another person for whom. it is equally we'll known. Prof. Heron abandoned his lawful wife and family. The precedent thus judicially set is fraught with i'm

Prince Kropotkin says that wealth
 does not bring happiness, which, of
 course. is not wholly original state
 ment, nor yet one which may be looked
 upon as indisputable. If some fairy
 godmother should make her appear ance and, driving all wolves from doors
 and all skeletons from closets, put in
 the places of these grim monsters snug
 little fortunes, the Chicago Tribune thinks it is safe to predict that cer- tain amount of happiness would result.
 AS to how long-lived that happiness
 would be is another question. There are certainly new ideals in regard to the relation between riches and happi- ness springing up, and one sees them frequently reflected in literature. It used to be that an author, in order to secure the happiness of his heroine, be- slowed upon her, besides the gift of husband, one of those large fortunes that only nOvelists have at their dis pesal. But now a writer will offer no guarantee of happiness with these gifts, but will give the reader to under stand that the use his heroine makes of both husband and fortune will de eide the matter of happiness. Every child, at some period of existence, en- tertains the sweet conviction that the life of a confectioner Is the one most to be envied and emulated, but in time comes the realization that there may be drops of bitterness in such a life and that a man with unlimited power in the disposition of peppermint sticks may be himself indifferent to these de lights. Wealth is largely a matter of peppermint sticks, and only one who has tried to consume a whole jar of these sweets by himself knows how cloying they may become. NeYerthe- less, riches as a source of power and force will go on alluring mankind to the endsof the chapter. As Emerson says: Some men are born to own, and can animate all their possessions. Others cannot; their owning is not graceful; seems to be compromise of their char acter; they seem to steal their own dividends. They should own who can not they who hoard and not they who, the greater pro- prietors they are, are only the greater beggars, but they whose work carves put work for more, opens a path for | alI."

the background of philosophical opin- ion concerning cause and sequence. During the last decade or two the in- veStigators themselves, with scarce an exception, have gone one step farther and now include sequence of develop ment from lower to higher forms as among the commonplaces of opinion, whatsoever the background of meta physical notion as to cause. There the strictly biologic aspect of the ques- ton as to mans place in nature may safely be considered to rest.
 The chief advances in anthropology have related to what men do and what men think, and the progress has been such as to indicate with fairly satis- factory clearness the natural history of human thinking, as we'll as that of human doing. As Is shown by the latest researches, the mental workings of the human are analogous with those of the lower animals, while the range from the instinct and budding reason of higher animals to the thinking of lowest man would seem far less than that separating the beast-fearing say age from the scientist and statesman. In short, the evident tendency of the science of anthropology Is. according to Prof McGee, toward the establish ment of mental as we'll as a physi- cal evolution of man from a prototype of lower rank in the animal kingdom.

When you arrive at your hotel in Kingston, Jamaica-and here 1t may be remarked that the town contains but one hotel worthy of the name-you are at once made aware that the establish ment is conducted "on the American plan," says a correspondent in the London Daily Mail. The guide book says so, and the inevitable iced water confirms the statement Outside, on Harbor street, the fine system or cleo tric trans makes you as an English man blush to the hat brim. Call a "'buso-it is a buggy of the American pattern-and drive to the railway sta tton, and once more the handiwork and enterprise of the Americans are in evidence, for the engine Is of United States design and the cars are of the same make. One is therefore not sur prised to learn that an American start ed the railway business in Jamaica and eventually sold out at handsome figure to the government of the colony.

Mans Social Standing in the West.
 The majority of Western men are out of their element, says W. D. Ly7 man in the Atlantic, in anything ex- cept business and politics. The wife usually acts as head of the family in all manner of social and religious crises, as inviting a ministerial guest to ask blessing at table or conduct family worship, while the masculine partner slouches around at such times in hulking and uncomfortable con sciouSness of his own lack of piety and polish. That solemn sense of his own dignity as head of the house that shrinking deference paid to him by the weaker vessels" of his family, which magnifies the pater familias in Eng land, and to some degree in the old fashioned New England community this never lightens up the pathway of the average Western householder. He may consider himself in great luck if he is not discrowned entirely.

Plagiarism must be an original sin, for it is committed by persons who would not do another dishonest thing. At least once a year some college orator is convicted of stealing the spread-eagleism which won him the prize in the contest. In most of these cases it is proved that the culprit lift cd" the speech from the effort of some college orator of other days, usually not so very remote.
