perhaps be Obliged to watch her starve? How

for vice And that remedy consists In making
marriage possible among the poor and In provid

in love utterly as could any millionaire. but
the gates OF the Eden OF matrlmony closed
against them and guarded by the flaming sword

in America. II is easier for the poor to live here
than in London, but every year 1t is growing less
easy In proportion with the poor mans growing
inability to support a wife, vice proves itself TO
be on the increase. This advance in vice is found
even in the west and there. as well as in the
east, 1t is due to the growing financial disability
to marry.
During my recent visit to Kansas City several
married women applied to me for positions on
the Salvation Army farms On investigation
learned that they had not heard from their nus
bands for years
| made inquiries, and in each found that
the wage-earner Of the family unable TO get
work had gone away, penniless, to seek lyeli-
hood elsewhere, and had been forced to leave his
wife and little to shift for themselves. Tho
stories were profoundly pathetic. For they told
If men and women whose right to wed and rear
families was inaenable and yet who had been
forced to part from all that each held dear.
Poverty. not more merciful death, them did part
Can any situation be imagined that would be
more crushing to a man of heart and OF pride
than to be forced thus to condemn to poverty
and loneliness the woman he loved? Could wit
nesses to such tragedy require stronger deter
rent to matrmony?
There is far more suffering of this kind among
the poor than the world at large ever hears OF.
Poor people are proud. and most of them have
passionate love of home. have whole
families resign themselves to probable death
The great dread of the unfortunate poor is lest
their children be taken away from them and
committed to an institution. "Domicide.' or the
breaking up of the home, is TO the poor man what
regicide is to loyal subjects OF any king.
From a sociological standpoint there many
arguments for allowing the poor TO have
home and family. II is his right He is fonder
of his children as a rule than is his rich neigh.
bor. His home is dearer TO him. Home ties
his only joys. his only recreation.

his heart by proposing the breaking up OF his

and living cheaper. and try to find the means

Perhaps the best maxim TO solve the marriage
problem among the poor Is:

Marriage conditions among the poor have
formed the theme of much of my personal re-
search and of many of the reports made to me.
1t Is one OF the great-one of the very great and
very grave-questions of the day.
Marriage among the rich may mean any
OF many things 1t may mean social or hnan.
cial advancement: 1t may be a mere matter of
convenience; II may be the outcome Of idleness
and propinquity.
But marriage among the poor is the most
cogent means of reform. By making marriage
universally possible among those who not
blessed with an abundance of this worlds goods
the most deadly blow imaginable would be dealt
to vice. The greatest step would by such means
be taken toward vices utter elimination.
Marriage is an honorable estate" and mot TO
be entered into lightly" But. too often. under
present conditions. the poor cannot afford
to enter into It at ALL Yet he perhaps far oftener
than his Weather brother recognizes the "hon
orable' condition of that estate"
say this advisedly. Among the poor inhdelty
is far less frequent than among the rich. The
poor man and his wife hold the marriage relation
more sacred than do those OF greater worldly
wealth.
II is therefore doubly unfortunate that class
worthy OF the blessings of matrimony should
be so frequently debarred from those blessings.

with ticks Is equal TO one quart OF
milk day for each COW. This
loss amounts in year TO no less
than 275--800 quarts GO to 70
gallons) Of milk for each COW.
This means a yearly loss Of 800
1915.
Much the same is true of cows
on the range when nursing calves.
The COW has TO feed the ticks.
Hence, il the tick abstract the
equivalent of one quart of milk a
day from dairy cattle, doubtless
they reduce in some similar pro-
portion the milk of the range COW,
whose calf must lose that amount,
and the calf likewise suffers a COR
responding drain from it's own
ticks. How can we expect our
cattle raised in tick-infested Sec
tions to develop as they ought to
deyelopl
OF course tho best solution Of
the problem is the eradication of
the ticks, and this could be nc
complish if every livestock
owner would cooperate with other
livestock men. II would Of
course follow that cattle from
other tick.infested states would
not be allowed to be shipped into
Florida. 1t seems, however, at
present that Florida may be the
last state in the Union to thor
oughly eradicate this pest.
Perhaps the next best method
will DO for each farmer to keep the
ticks under control by constant
spraying or dipping. There are q
number Of proprietary dips upon
the market which are very good
when properly applied; but the
greatest drawback to the proprie-
tary dips is their expense. Most
of these preparations cost from 81
$l.50 a gallon, and one gallon
makes about twenty gallons Of
dip; so that the dip costs from five
to eight cents gallon. This is a
considerable expense. There are,
however, several good dips Tone
of which is given above), which
the farmer himself can prepare at
a much less cost.

all. The two men, themselves
frightened, hastily but quietly
Withdrew, and the priest proceed
ed with his ministrations.
All were kneeling with their
faces towards the front door.
The stairs came down. into tho
rear part of the room. Suddenly
and without q word of warning,
those three roscally puppies came
capering down stairs and rushed
and rolled and tumbled upon the
legs of those kneeling in the rear
rank. A fat Cuban woman re-
ceivcd the full force of their inn
petus in the rear; and as their toe
nails scratched her calves, she was
instantly persuaded that that
whole box of rattlesnalSes, aided
and allotted by bears and cata-
mounts, were seeking her immedi-
ate destruction. Accordingly, she
uttered a blood-curdling shrek,
bolted headlong over those in
front of her aud rushed screaming
up the street, crying out Snakes"
in Spanish and bawling for u
doctor.
On the instant, panic seized the
entire crowd and, with wild yells
and horrible Spanish imprecations,
they rushed pell.mell ont of the
door and fled for dear life up the
street. Women ran screaming
and men bowling, and the welkin
rang with objurgatory Spanish
enough to last Havana for a week.
Merchants, clerks and custom
ers rushed TO their doors to see
what oil the clamor and uproar
was about; and seeing the Cubans
coming with dishevcIed hair, wav-
ing arms and multitudinous yells
and shrielSs, they also were seized
with panic and rushed back into
the stores, closed and barricaded
the doors and began an instant
and diligent search for defensive
weapons. The general panic
listed for two or three hours be-
fore it was quieted down. How
it was Quoted is not reported,
but it is supposed to have simply
exhausted itself.
Meantime, the priest and Ralph
were left alone in the midst of
a wreck.of chairs, an unscathed
silent menagerie and three smiling
puppies. The priest looked ut
Ralph, and Ralph looked at the
priest. Ralph started to say,
"WelI, III be dad-faddled," but
he respected the priest and said
only, and meekly,
Father, ! hope you don't
blame me for this
Certainly not" replied the
priest; sit was all my fault;n and
then they shook hands and set to
work putting things in order,
while the puppies and other ami
mails looked on.
This was the first attempt to
celebrate mass in Punta Gorda,
and Mr.. Ralph says that hcwill
never forget it.
