DECLINE OF MARRIAGE,

a New Jersey clergyman, Ref Her

keeping statistics Of marriages, Is quot
Cd rs having said that during the past
year the number Of marriages was
smaller than for many years past,
This Is rather surprising. II seems to
unset the very plausible theory that
the business Of Cupid as we'll as that OF
bankers and railroad managers,ls -four
isting IN proportion to the general
prosperity OF country. There ought
to have been large increase In the
number Of marriages last year, with
lts high record OF material prosperity
But Mr.. schoppe says there was not,
and he fails TO understand the cause Of
the falling Off unless It ls because
the young women are becoming more
exaoting they think they should lead
lie Of ease after getting married"
a clergyman Of St Louis, Rev. Dr.
Kosa also complains Of the falling of
IN marriages, He says there We're only
a dozen such ceremonies in his congre-
cation during the entire year, and he
thinks the young men are neglectlng
their duty Of proposing He suggests
that the young ladies come to the res
cue and do the proposing themselves,
and not wait FOR the men to come along
ana ask them to become their wives.
Women" he says, do not usually let
men propose to them until they are
ready and there ia no reason why they
should not have and exercise the same
right Of proposing 0s men, It Isl mis-.
take 70 think that young man cannot
get married without having a bank ac-
count In fact, II would be much bet
ter for a young couple TO start IN life
poor and make their fortunes together,
for then both Of them would enjoy IL
better Here the young people seem
to think that they should wait until
they get rich before thinking of mar
rying'
Here are two different views OF the
cause TO which the decline Of the matrl-
monlal market can be ascrlbed. one
is that women are becoming more OK
acting, and the other that the young
men are more timid than they used ia
be-, The fact Is that the change which
has been wrought IN social conditions
by which an ever increasing number OF
women are becoming selt-supporling
naturally has had q tendency to brlne
about the condition complained Of, But
Il may not be permanent Human
nature has not changed materially, and
by degrees the different parts OF tn,
social machinery win adjust itself tC

and smoothly.
