THE MENACE OF TRIAL MAR
RACES.
To Make Them Legal Would Throw a
Nation Into Chaos.

THE proposal of trial marriages as
a correction of the divorce evil, would,
if carried out. but double the deplor-
able conditions" says Bishop Doane, in
the August Delineator.
That such things could be seriously
limited at means so lax and low q view
Of this great contract as to be in it
self alarming. There must be insist
ence upon the essential element OF
marriage; namely, its observation-disclosures
There must be education in the
churches and in the homes and in all
the ways of reaching and forming pub
lie opinion to counterfeit the vicious
temper Of the times. Whatever guard
religious teaching can throw about this
holy estate Of matrimony ought to be
secured. Whatever dignity, even if 1t
he in the way of difficulties, legal en-
actment can give to the civil contract
side. ought TO be urged. Whatever i'm
preston. by word and example. can be
made upon children in the formative
period Of their character must be
made: and the popular mind needs to
be aroused TO realize the danger of
a lax and loose estimate of what mar
riage really is. This is a matter that
underlies ;he very foundations of So
ciety and the cornerstone of the home.
Il is 50 nearly the spring and source
OF human life that whatever defiles 1t
poisons the race Of man.

THE PERIL OF pIooENEs.

Three days after the statute of Di-

sent for Sluethonian. the detective as
signed to the case.

who is he?" asked the chief.
He is a philosopher by occupation. 81
"A philosopher? All, There isn't
much money in that line of business
can understand how a costly statue
of Diana might come in hand to a good
many philosophers"
Where does he live?" asked the
chief. after some further thought.
'In a tub"
in a tub? why does he live in a
tub?"
We'll. my theory is that he is plan
ming an acquittal on the ground OF in
sanity. or maybe he wants people to
believe that he despises the comforts
and conveniences of life and wouldn't
know what to do with money II he had
it. II we accuse him of stealing the
statue he may plead kleptomsnia"
Il see. Any other suspicious cir
cumstances
Yet. 1t is only a day or two since
he was going around Athens in day
light with a lantern looking for an
honest man"
THAT settles ii. If he hasn't any
more confidence in human nature than
that. he must BE- crooked. or. maybe.
he is some crank of a reformar II he
is. I'd just as soon run him in any
how. But you don't seem to have any
evidence to connect him with the theft
Of the statue"
We'll. no. not yet. / thought I'd get
my man first and my evidence after

Good. There is a lot OF detective
work done on that principle. jug him

And If the real culprit had not been
accidentally discovered shortly after

6lUE-EYED MEXICAN INDIANS.

One of the mysteries of Mexico is
presented by the Meya Indians. who
inhabit the Sierra Madre mountains in
the lower part of Sonora. They have
fair skins. blue eyes and light hair
and students of ethnology have always
been puzzled to account for them.
There is tradition, however. that
these Indians are the descendants Of
the crew and passengers OF Swedish
vessel wrecked on the Mexican coast
centuries before Columbus discovered
the New World. but this tradition is
founded on nothing more substantial
than folklore tales current among
them that their ancestors came over
the big salt water hundreds OF moons
ago-MeXican Herald.

In Speaking of the Hague Conference
We do we'll to remember that there
are many Missionaries in the peace
movement. as there are in every
other good movement. Most
Missionaries in the world are
good people with high motives. and.
naturally. they ally themselves with
good causes. When the cause itself
is visionary. they are the leaders; when
| the cause is nov visionary they are the
followers. IT the world peace move
ment, they are most emphatically the
followers. None of the great peace
leaders is so absurdly sanguine as to
expect the immediate eradication of
war. Most of them believe that their
aim cannot be realized for many gen.
erations to come. The movement is not
revolutionary. but evolutionary.
