MODEL HEATHEN MARRIAGES.
Writer Says Savages Have Some Ideas
 Superior to Our Own

The more one studies the problem of marriages the more plain does 1t be- come that many of the heather ideas on the subject are infinitely superior to ours. One of the dreams Of socialist re- formers, for instance, is the endowment of motherhood. They regard 1t as a utopian vision of the far future not likely to be fulfilled for years to come.
 Among the Mohammedans this dream is a reality. The maintenance of chil- dren devolves so exclusively on the father that the mother is entitled to claim wages for nursing them! The importance of her services to the state in rearing healthy citizens is thus rec ognized in the most practical manner.
 We hear a good deal of agitation nowadays about making the conditions of divorce equal to both sexes. Among the Shawanese this is already done An unfaithfu husband can be turned adrift by his wife, who retains all his property They go one better and make drunkenness also an offense for which divorce can be obtained.
 lb savage lIlDeS W0Dll we SITlNP ID convert have apparently much clear CT idea of the real basis of marriage the end for which 1t waseordained, than we, who seem to marry for almost ev- cry other reason than the desire for children. With savages the offspring is the main purpose of wedlock Married couples in some tribes do not live to- gether at all until shortly before or sometimes actually after the birth of the first child, and In some cases the marriage Is not binding until a child is born. Among others childless wife can at any time quit her husband but may not marry again. Westermark is my authority but l cannot recall the names of the tribes from memory These poor heathens recognize it will be seen, that children are the chief tie the only real bond--that unites a man and woman permanently-in short, that marriage Is rooted in family rather than family in marriage,--London Chronicle.

SAVED A MANS LIFE.
But MT. Cleveland Wasn't Sure of I,
 Until Years Later.

Among the anecdotes that will be printed about ex President Cleveland, one that recurs to the writer Is par tlcuiariy timely It never has been in print, but 1t was once the pleasure of the writer to tell 1t at a-publlc din- ner In the presence of Alonzo B. Cornell and Grover Cleveland.
 Since the early seventies. the alumni Of Cornell university in New York city have had an annual dinner. to which, during his lifetime, Mir. Cornell was always asked. On ono occasion during his term at Albany as governor, few of the older graduates were talking with the governor while awaiting the announcement of dinner, when MT. Cor nell sald

On Tuesday last, however, law yer from Buffalo came by appointment to present the case of the condemned man, and he did 1t In such clear straightforward manner, without the slightest attempt to appeal to, my sym. pathies, that was and am tremendous. iy impressed that the prisoner is not guilty of capital offense. The law yer's name was Cleveland, Grover Clevelapd.'
 Tonrs afterward at the' alumni dinner of 1889, at which the then ex- president having served his first terni---sat al the right hand of the presiding officer John Dewitt Warner, and ex-Governor Cornell at the left, the writer of this column repeated the Incident.
