 And yet those who advocate no divorce at all. or even but for one cause, may be as far wrong as those who would im- pose no restrictions, says Ida Husted Harper in The Dellneator for September. Not every home is q blessing to it's h. mates or 10 the community. The one, for instance, where either parent is in a state of frequent drunkenness, or where brawllng and fighting are constant-is it of any advantage to children to continue in a home of that kind?

Then from the far off distance you saw your father and your sister come out to greet her. You witnessed the rap ture of their welcome Then you heard your mother say: "Yes, Harry and Sarah have the farm. They are carrying on the work of the old church." "But," asked your father and sister, 'how about Johnny" "Oh," your mother answered. with heavenly smile "he has not been living as he ought, but he is all right now!

First Niqht Away From Home.


 Have you ever seen your feelings bet ter portrayed than in the great picture Hovenden painted, called The Breaking of Home 1fes?" I have fine copy of that picture hanging on my dining room wall. Some people declare the mothers face is the most wonderful part of that nictllre. Others draw your attention to inc dog, others to the youngest sister or to the old grandmother's eyes. But the most suggestive part of that picture to me is the chin of the boy. who is about to leave home As 1 stand and look at that chin I can almost see it culver.

ORGANIZE MEMS CLUB
First Congregational Church to Adopt
Plan to interest Men of the City
in Church Affairs.

With a view to arousing more In
terest in church affairs among the men
and especially to promote sociability
and feeling of good fellowship, the
officers of the First Congregational
church have decided to adopt a new
plan. This is to hold frequent mems
meetings, which shall be of a purely
informal and social character.
The first of these meetings is to be
held in the social rooms at the church
on the evening of March 81 Dinner
will be served by the Woman's union
OF the church at 6:15. and following
this number Of informal talks will
be given. Considerable time will also
be devoted to becoming better ac-
quainted. The notice which has been
issued states emphatically that this
meeting is not called for the purpose
of raising money and that no reference
will be made to church finances.

WOULD SELL PATENTS
Mrs. J. J. cockrilI Will Dispose Of Her
Late Husbands Warm Air
Furnace RIGHTS.

Owing to the death Of j. j. Cockrill,.
patentee of the Cockrill heater and
warm air furnace, the widow has de-
cided to dispose of the patent rights
and good will, at very low price con-
sidering the value of the patents and
successful operation of the furnaces
now in use in the city.
Some three years ago Mr.. Cockrill
built and made over a heating stove
for his own home and after improv-
ing 1t to high state of efficiency, had
the same patented, Since that time
he has had about ten of the furnaces
made at the Anderson foundry In
Meorhead and placed them in old and
new houses in Fargo and Moorhead In
every case they are giving satisfac-
tion and the good advertising from
these, the man or company taking
hold of the invention now will make u
good thing of it.
The furnace is efficient as a fuel
saver and is much smaller both as to
floor space consumed and air pipes
necessary to conduct the heat to the
various rooms Of house. The great
advantage Is in its fine adaptabllity to
small houses, with or without base
sments and its cost of installation. Sew
eral people are considering the prom
osition to buy the invention outright.
Mrs. Cockrill hopes that she may be
able to sell outright to some person or
company. She is unable to do any
thing with It herself and desires to
dispose of the invention on this ac-
count

Another Large Congregation Attended
the Peoples Meeting at the Grand
Sunday Evening.

Another splendidly attended "peo-
pies meeting" was held last night at
the Grand. The music was even finer
than on the opening night and the
solo, The Ninety and Nine, by f. r.
Orchard, was rare treat for music
lovers. DIR. Woodruff's address on
Heroes, Past and Present, took for IL
lustration, the band of singing and
playing Salvation soldiers who went
down on the Larchmont, Feb. II, at
Block island, when the steamer sank.
The speaker showed how the heroes
OF history were mostly those of, the
wars of the early ages, while christian
faith and fortitude produces a higher
type of heroism. He drew from this
and other illustrations lessons Of the
true christian courage the lesson, that
the Lord win sustain His children UNI
der the most trying circumstances;
that devotion, to the DEATH is a mark
of the faithful soldier of Christ. That
selfishness is not the most predomi-
nant feature of Gods children. That
even in these degenerate days human
ity has not lost the idea of sacrifice,
Of even life itself, for the good of 9TH
ers. That christian soldiers as well
as the soldiers of the nations armies,
exhibit superior bravery.
The audience appeared to be mostly
made up of nom church, oers, and in
fact the speaker intimated that the
services We're not held for church mem
bers but for this very class. The att
tention to the services were close, no
one left the hall until the exercises
We're over, and all seemed pleased with
the announcement that the meetings
would be continued indefinitely and very
likely Peoples league or federation
would be formed. DIR. Putnam is the
right man in charge of the music,
