While tine matter Of providing for

fact for the consideration Of that

given it than any other college IN

Much regret Is expressed here
among conservative men at the re-
cent defeat Of DR.. Crill's geological
survey bill. The same bill met with
the same fate years ago, when it
passed the Senate, only 10 perish
miscrably by the wayside in the
House. Mr.. Buchanan did his best
for the bill, and John Wall also lin
bered up a little in behalf Of the
timely measure introduced by his
colleague in the upper house. But
it was all to no avail. The bill was
doomed from the start, and IL IL go
ing 10 be a matter Of considerable
difficulty 10 get any measure invOlv-
ing either An appropriation or new
office through the House Of Repre-
sentatiyes this year. Some people
have queer ideas Of economy any
hOw.-I'imes-U Union Tallahassee Cor.
The Grill Geological Survey bill
provided for geological survey Of
the state for the purpose Of ascertain
ing it's mineral resources and posi-
bilIties. The bill carried apprOpria-
tiOns Of 5000 for two years, and was
in line with other progressive states
IN the Union. IL Is greatly to be re-
GREETED that such valuable measure
should be side-tracked by cOnsidera-
tiOns Of false economy.

DIVORCE AND FAILURE.

GD0d every day common sense IL
sDmctinra handed down from the
bench more effectively even than the
Law.
4 Cl"yeInrd, Ohio, judge recently
supplied al instance. when In rem
dcring IL decision he said:
"The young married couple that
start life on an income Of 81 ,J'yD, and
proceed 10 live a. though it were
f5,DJD, need not be very far-sighted
to zee "A divorce at the end nf their
romance"
All Iaw haa been said to be but
gystcnhlizod common sense. But,
unfortunately, all common sense IL
not law. The simple truth 50
bluntly stated by this Judge is one Of
the most important, but least heed
ed, truths in human life.
The startling assertion was made
last fall by some statistical authority
IN GcOrgia that niuc-tcnths Of the
young nru Of that state working on
salaries were in debt through higher
living titan their salaries warrant.
II il ~ b" hoped the same proper.
ton dD"s not obtain in other sections
NJ the country. That style Of living
Bakns brIrk business for the ''In0ney
sbArK- but II fatal to all others.
n would seem 10 be the most east
~ cOmpreheuded proposition In the
World that young man or n young
couple cannot succrssfully spend $40
a week ~ 81 income. Multiplying
abs figures will not change the pro-
T,Ortion or lessen the danger.
Ten dollars income and 50 expendi-
ture form the road 10 success. Nine
dollars income and $40 expenditure
from the road to failure.
The guidc-post, plainly marked, at
which choice IL made between these
two rOads, Is the most critical point
in n young mans life.
Perhaps all this II platitude. II
has been worn thrcadbare by repeat
I'd assertion ever since civilization
began. The vital truth and imp0r-
lance Of II Is demonstrated every
day. But the fact remains that mill
ions Civ" no heed. The happy
homes 81 the land whore peace and
prosperity have their shrines are the
homes whore frugality binds hearts
together in loving, hopeful sym
pathy.
The dollar In the bank Is n good
guard against want, but only the
common n"nge spirit Of making both
ends meet cnn guard against that de-
mon wDrs" than wHnt--wOrry. which
wrecks the home.
The American people are acquiring
most unenviabIe reputation for
business failures and divorces. The
penny more spent than the penny
earned II perhaps the most direct
cause Of both.
