WEDDING GIFT IN FRANCE.
Each Couple Is Presented by the
Government with Lit
tie Book.

When the civil ceremony ~
marriage is performed in France
the official who conducts it passes
10 the newly welded pair a little
book. which is the wedding gift OF
the French government. This
book contains an official record OF
the wedding and number OF
blank spaces for future births,
marriages and deaths in the fam
lily.
The most important feature OF
the small volume, however, is con-
tanned in about six pages that are
devoted to the special instruc-
tiOns which the Academy OF Medj-
cine has prepared on the care Of
Young children. These instruc-
tons number 30 in all and they re-
fer to the feeding and clothing OF
infants and to the further prOtec-
ton of the helpless child.
This curious little wedding gift
was inspired by the deep thought
which be government has given
to the subject of the reduction of
infant mortality, a problem Of the
utmost importance in view of the
backward movement in popula-
ton in France.

SELECTING THE ATTRACTIONS,
Grand junction Lecture Course for
Coming Season will be Best
Ever offered Here.

All winter Rev. James A. Becker
manager of the Grand junction lee
ture course. has been keeping in
touch with the leading lecture bur
eaus in order to make the best Sc
lections possible for the next course
to be offered the Grand Junction peo-
pie.
Rev. Becker states that there is
little doubt but that the next course
win be the best and most extensive
ever arranged for this city.
Next year large number of the
finest attractions of the lyceum world
that ever came west will fill engage
ments throughout the Rocky Noun
tain region and on the coast and
consequently this city has fine lot
CT talent from which to make
selections.
II is not certain as to whether SEN
ator LaFolleytte. the great Wisconsin
statesman. who has been engaged for
the last attraction on the present lee
ture course, will flll his engagement.
II was thought that Senator La
Toilette would be able to visit Grand
Junction in April but 1t is now an
nounced that he cannot MI his west
ern lecture dates until Congress ad-
iourns 1t Is not probable that con-
gress will adjourn before June and
as a result the managers of the local
course are debating as to whether ii
would be wise to secure another man
for this course and postpone La
Follelle's engagement till next fall
when he can appear as an attraction
of the new course. Senator LaFoll-
cites lecture is being looked forward
to with great interest by all who are
familiar with the career of the dis
tingulshed gentleman who has sever
al times been governor of Wisconsin
and is now in the national senate,
and his failure to come west this
spring will be regretted.

THE sELF-DENIaL WEEK.

It was in August. 1856 that Cen
eral Booth sounded the trumpet call
to action on new lines which at once
reused the attention of both friends
and critics. In the course of n let
ter which appeared in the War Cry
dated August II of that year the
general reviewed the situation and
for the relief of the pressing necesslt-
les of the war proposed that "a week
be set apart In which every soldier
and friend should deny himself OF
some article of food or clothing. or
some indulgence which can be done
without. and that the money gained
by this self-denlal be sent to us I'm
this emergency" Thus was inaugu-
rated what has since become known
in every land where the Salvation
army's flag is flying. as 'self-denial
week" The funds raisued during
this effort are used to aid the Home
and foreign missionary work of the
army.

WITH a rate-bill to suit the rail-

designed merely to allay the in
dignant cutlery against embalmed
beef and ~ptomained poultry, and
some perfectly harmless legisla-
ton concerning the thieving trusts,
the "business interests of the
country rest secure. In gratitude,
they will doubtless contribute lib
orally to the G. o. p. campaign
fund, and soon the organs and the
spellbinders will again be telling
us of the beneficence of the tariff,
the beauties of imperialism-under
the sweet name of benevolent as
similation'-and the incompetent
cy of some peoples to think for and
govern themselves. The grandeur
of being a "world-power" will be
sung in heroic verse all over the
Union, and ten-million-dollar bat
tie ships held up for admiration.
And the easy people? O., they'll
go right along and toll and sweat
and deny themselves, in order that
the millionaire may become a bill
lionaire, and that soft places may
be made and maintained for the
select and favored. No wonder
that the delusion of Socialism is
growing. 1t is a reaction much
provoked.
