Felix Adler, professor Of political
and social ethics at Columbia univer
sity, expressed the opinion that the
responsibility for divorces lay not
with the lack of instruction of those
contracting marriage, but in the view
of parents that marriage is a means
to obtain felicity and comfort, rather
than an institution having for one of
its important objects the preservation
of society
"Mr. Mitchell has skinned sub
ject," said Prof. Adler, which, to be
thoroughly discussed, would require
all the reflection of work on philoso-
ply. / should be inclined to go beyond
the people in the divorce courts and
beyond the neglect of the parents to
inform their children regarding the
duties and obligations of marriage,
and to say the blame lay in the abb
sence of thought and mature consid-
Grafton of the marriage relation in the
parents themselves.
Marriage should not be considered,
as is sometimes the case, merely for
the felicity and comfort which the re-
lation affords. Marriage is an insti-
tuition for the perpetuation of the best
spiritual element in our race. A child
needs the protection, the spiritual in
fiuence, and the material guidance of
the home long after infancy is passed.
We see in nature the mountains, the
rocks, the rivers. They are perma-
nent. We face a condition in which
the most precious thing of all-life-
is ever in danger of extinction. 1t is
the preservation Of this most precious
thing that should be the source of
thought and study by those who live
in the marriage relation. The blessed
felicity of marriage is a result, not
the motive, of marriage"
"Is the ignorance with which young
people approach marriage due to a
lack of frankness on the part of the
parents?"
Il would hardly say that" Prof Ad-
Ter replied. "A New England woman
asked me recently whether she should
tell her young daughter everything
about married life before her we'd
ding.
Il was of the opinion that it would
not be for the best. The mother
should tell her daughter certain
things, but if she learned everything
there would be danger that the bald
ness OF the narrative would neutralize
the beneficial object of the lesson.
The time would come in the young
wife's life when she would give seri-
Gus thought to the question. At such
a time, other elements of married life
of affection, pride, loyalty, and the

CHASED AWAY HIS INSOMNIA.
What Meal of Peanuts and Milk Did
for One Victim.

A friend who had heard that some
times suffer from insomnia told me of
a sure cure. Eat a pint of peanuts
and drink two or three glasses of milk
before going to bed" said he, "and
I'll warrant you'll be asleep within
half an hour" l did as suggested,
and now for the benefit of others who
may be afflicted with insomnia, / feel
it my duty to report what happened
so far as | am able this morning to re-
call the details. First let me say, my
friend was right / did go to sleep
very soon after my retirement. Then
a friend with his head under his arm
came along and asked me If I wanted
TO buy his feet. 1 was negotiating with
him, when the dragon on which I was
riding slipped out of his skin and
left ME floating in midair. While
was considering how I should get
down bull with two heads peered
over the edge of the wall and said he
would haul me up if would climb up
and rig windlass for him. So as I
was sliding down the mountain side
the brakeman came in, and I asked
him when the train would reach my
station. we passed your station 400
years ago." he said, calmly folding
the train up and slipping it into his
vest pocket.

Why do the newspapers, for example,
show only the darkest side of life
the sins and crimes and sensational
events? The pessimistic view of life
always reminds me of the story of a
boy from a country town, who was
brought to New York by his father on
his first visit. He had heard much
of Broadway, and his father took him
to see the street, its buildings. shops,
and crowds passing along the side
walks.
"'Well, what do you think of it?'
asked the father when the trip had
ended.
THE boy was clearly disappointed.
All the people are lame he replied.
"Some questioning was required to
find out exactly what the boy meant.
| 1t appeared that there was lame
man in the village where the boy had
lived all his life. The boy remem-
bered him distinctly he was SO
strange, so different from the others.
AS he walked along Broadway he saw
a dozen lame men. He remembered
them rather than the hundreds of peo
pie who were sound. So 1t Is with
our pessimlsts. They can see only
the lame men,"

coadiutor OF the diocese OF New
York, when told of Mr.. Mitchell's
views on the divorce question, said
that in his opinion the prevalence of
divorce was not due to the indiffer-
ence of parents or the lack of instruc-
tion to those about to marry, but was
manifestation of the moral ire
sponsibility of the day.
IL doubt IL the lesson Mr.. Mitchell
outlines can be taught in the way he
has chosen" Bishop Greer said. Il
am not even certain that it does young
people any good to teach them all that
married life means-its sufferings and
sacrifices. They know well enough
what marriage is when they get
into 1t.
"The problem of divorce seems to
lie deeper than that. 1t rests in the
lack of moral responsibility among
our people. With the class we are
discussing, morals are a question of
convention. The desire to be con-
sidered moral is sometimes based on
a wish to be thought respectable, or
on some similar ambition or motive.
Such conventions always depend on
public opinion, and public opinion is
as variable as weather-cock.
"The attitude toward marriage and
divorce, which we are discussing, is
a sign of the day, of lives based on
the habit Of living for the hour or the
day-in a word, the attitude of ire
sponsibility. So far as morals are con-
cerned, the people seem to be drift
ing, to lack strong convictions. Per
hcps it may be traced to the modern
spirit of agnosticism. 1t is one mani
festation of many of this spirit in
modern life"
Such as corruption in political or
moral life?" suggested the reporter.
"The spirit makes itself felt in
many ways" Bishop Greer replied.
ut is frequently seen in the tendency
to let we'll enough alone, and to ac-
cept life as it is"
Moral lrresponsiblity.
"Then this moral irresponsibility is
a disease?"
Yes, it is disease; malignant
disease that should be cut out"
What is the remedy for this dis
ease, so far as it concerns divorce?"
There must be some remedy"
Bishop Greer replied, after a moment
of thoughtful silence. "The law can
help, the church can help, and the
newspapers can help. 1t is all mat
ter of public opinion, of making peo-
pie realize their responsibilities.
DO not believe for moment that
I am pessimistic," he fastened to add.
"On the contrary, l am optimistic,

WEDDING 1000 YEARS Ago.
Ceremony Occupies 4t Lines Eight
Feet Long in the Telling.

Rameses II died 1000 years ago,
but some facts concerning his life are
just becoming known. One of these
is the story of his marriage, which
has just been revealed by Prof. James
H. Breasted of the University OF
Chicago, in his first preliminary report
of the expeditions which he has been
making among the temples and hier-
oglyphics along the Nile. He found
the account of this in the Sun temple
of Abu Simbel, which is one of the
principal buildings erected by King
Rameses. To tell the story it required
an inscription of Al lines, each about
eight feet long. Prof. Breasted finds
it impossible to give the complete
translation of this story in his article,

scriptions in police journals and beg
ging the officers of other cit1s to look
