Chicago Is aroused because the Corr
Exchange Bank has posted q notice
that none of its employees shall marry
on salary of less than $1,000 a year
1t Is evident that the bank officials
believe that couple cannot live on
less than $1,000 year. By Inference
the married employee who spends more
than his income, or who tries to live
on less than $1,000 year, cannot be q
good employe. Chicago newspaper
have interviewed all sorts of people on
the subject, and the consensus of opin.
Lon seems to be that marriage on less
than $1,000 per annum is a dangerous
experiment. When two persons with
average intelligence and world knowl.

sacrifices. 1t would seem that q bank
or the public generally, could afford ia

and salvation unhampered. There are
married couples to whom $1,000 a year
would seem a fortune. We have In

that the task of trousers pressing Is

that 1t should be regarded as a loving

In many respects the great Siberian
railway seems to be a deluslon and a
snare. It is said to have earned some
$2,5O0.0OO less than its running ex-
penses last year. The interest on its
cost Is probably not less than $4,000,
600 year. In view of the fact that
Russia would never have got into a
war with Japan but for this railway 1t
would seem as if the Russians, in pay
