Conclusion.
Speaking generally, the country 10
in high state Of prosperity. There is
every reason to believe that we are on
the eve of a substantial business ex-
pansion, and we have Just garnered a
harvest unexampled In the market val
ue of our agricultural products. The
high prices which such products bring
mean great prosperity for the farming
community; but, on the other hand.
they mean a very considerably increas-
ed burden upon those classes in the
community whose yearly compensation
does not expand with the improvement
In business and the general prosperity.
Various reasons are given for the high
prices. The proportionate increase In
the output OF gold. which today is the
chief medium Of exchange and is In
some respects a measure of value. fur.
nishes q substantial explanation of at
least part Of the increase in prices.
The Increase in population and the
more expensive mode Of living Of the
people. which have not been accom-
panied by a proportionate increase in
acreage production, may furnish fur
ther reason. 1t is we'll to note that the
increase in the cost of living is not
confined to this country. but prevails
the world over. and that those who
would charge increases in prices to the
existing protective tariff must meet
the fact that the rise in prices has
taken place almost wholly in those
products of the factory and farm in
respect to which there has been either
no increase in the tariff or in many
instances a very considerable reduc-
tfon

A q result Of the labors OF trained
explorers Of the bureau OF plant in
dustry in China. the forest service has
been furnished with supply Of seeds
Of the pistscie chinesis, an oriental
tree resembling the California pepper
tree. These seeds were gathered from
trees growing in the province Of Shan
tung, China, where some of them have
reached large proportions, says the
San Francisco Call.
A tree standing at the grave of Con-
fucius has a diameter of over four
feet. They are well adapted to dry
regions and are long lived. 1t is
hoped the trees grown from this seed
will serve as a stock of the pistachio
nut of commerce.
The seeds will be planted at the
Lytle Creek nursery station in south
ern California, and If the plantations
are successful they will be grown ex-

stricting himself to the only two
rooms in the house which he really
needs for his own use. AS for Mrs.
Aarup and the children, they could oc-
cupy the other two bedrooms, as for
merly, the kitchen, drawing-room and
d1n1ng-room, and rent the other apart
ments in the front of the house.
There was only one obstacle to the
successful carrying out of this sug
gestion, and the attorneys interested
in the case called it to the attention
of the court. With his two rooms par
titioned off from the other part of
the house, Mr.. Aarup would probably
suffer some Inconvenience climbing up
and down a ladder and in and out of
his bedroom window every time he
wanted to go upstairs. There would
be no other way for him to reach his
bedroom after it was partitioned off
from the remainder of the house.
Has Private Staircase.
Judge Honore has disposed of this
little problem by suggesting the con
struction of a private staircase lead
ing from Mr.. Aarup's Office to the
bedroom overhead. The Judge has
even constituted himself architect for
the reconstruction of the house that is
to be divided against itself, and he
has drawn up plans for the construc-
ton of the partitions which, when
completed, will enable Mr. and Mrs.
Aarup each to live in his or her own
side of the house without any fear of
ever meeting the other face to face.
At present they have no desire to meet
each other, and Mr.. Aarup has formed
the habit of making a noise whenever
he is about to walk through the front
hall toward the front door or to the
staircase. If Mrs. Aarup is in the hall
or on the staircase when she hears
her husbands signal announcing his
approach she withdraws until all dan
ger of having to face him has passed.
Il should think said the court
that a stairway may be built from
that one bedroom. This will obviate
the defendants having to go through
that part of the house occupied by the
rest of the family An arrangement
may be made whereby they may have
separate entrances. There might be a
separate stairway"
There was, however, another fea-
ture of this complex problem which
the court was called upon to dispose
of in some way. Neither Mr.. Aarup
nor his wife has any desire to remarry.
He is limited in his own home to two

DOING THEIR FULL DUTY.
Statistics Prove That Americans Have
Not Shirked Altar.


In these goth century days, says a
writer in Success Magazine, when
even the very young tell you that mar
riage is a failure, and that =, is better
for the bachelor maid to bear the ills
she has than fly to others that she
knows not of, it is reassuring to read
statistical report on marriage and
divorce just issued by the census de-
partment. 1t seems that Uncle Sam
became interested in this marriage
question, and sent his patient census
enumerators to all the tying-up places
in the country to find out what they
could. The results are astounding.
During the last 20 years almost g.,
100000 bridegroomS and brides
walked up to the atlar-13, 100000
handsome SWANS with 100000
blushing brides on their arms. The
American is a marrying man, much
more than is the Englishman, the
Frenchman, the German, the Russian,
the Austrian, the Italian, the Span
lard, the Swede, or, in fact, than any
European except the Hungarian. And
the habit is growing on the American,
50 much so that every single man and
maid in the country has a better
chance of marrying than had his
father or her mother.

his business is such that if he were
compelled to move to another neigh
borhood it would mean considerable
loss of business and a heavy financial
loss as well.
Recalls Judgment of Solomon.
The famous case of Biblical days in
which King Solomon rendered his de-
cision awarding the baby to the right
full claimant, its own mother, pre-
scented no more puzzling problem than
that confronting Judge Honore. If he
were to grant Mrs. Aarup an absolute
divorce and award her the custody of
her three children and the right to
retain possession of their home, it
was possible that a great injustice
would be done TO the husband. On
the other hail, if Mr.. Aarup were
given the rigs.t to occupy the house.
it would sfr-.ply mean that Mrs
Aarup and Ger children would have to
be turned ut of a home which right
fully beloI ged to them. Neither hus-
band nor rife was willing to concede
the house to the other. 1t was plainly
up to Judge Honore to decide.
Before presenting his solution of the
problem she judge gathered some de-

AN oLD-FAsHIoNED TONIC.
But One of the Best for Those That
Are "Run Down."

The person who is run down or Ian
guild or who is annoyed by cold that
clings despite all remedies, should try
an old-time cure much priced by our
grandparents-bone tea.
This tea is easily made and it's tonic
effect is remarkable on many persons.
One young woman whose friends
thought her marked for tuberculosis
was cured of a 1ong-standing cold in
a few weeks by no other medicine
than a half-glass of boneset three
times a day.
The herb can now be bought in
compressed packages and half a cake
covered with a pint of boiling water
will make tea quite strong enough
Put the boneset into the water as it
lust comes to a boil on the stove, re-
move at once and let it stand until
cold before drinking. The tea can
either be strained entirely when cold
or each glass can be poured off the
grounds through a coffee strainer-
A porcelain lined saucepan is the
most convenient vessel for making
this tea. Some persons prefer pour
ing the boiling water over the bone
set, but the water cools too much in

Increasing Insanity.
H. S. GIvLER. Pub.

Conditions local to Massachusetts
were recently cited by the state board
of Iunacy in explanation of the in
creased number of patients in the In
sane asylums of this state, says the
Boston Herald. They cannot apply in
New York, but similar increase in in
sanity cases is reported by the authori-
ties of that state. The number of new
cases last year was 500 greater than
in the year previous, and the 1unacy
commission reports that "all the hos
pitfalls are overcrowded and rapidly be-
coming more So 1--WE can't build hos
APPALLING increase" says one of the
state officials. The increase is due, in
the opinion of this official, to the mod

istic self-indulgence of the race There

lessness to mental deterioration is not
always realized. But lawlessness on
the part of the individual indicates a
lack of self-restraint and an inability
for self-government. If statute laws
are disregarded, moral and physical
laws will not receive greater respect.
Disqualification excuses one form of
lawlessness as well as another. 1t
tends to fill the insane asylums as well
as the jails.

The declared purpose of the Cuban
national lottery bill is to increase the
national revenues. This is frank, any
way, says the Boston Herald. The os
tensible object of lotteries generally is
10 give the participants a chance tic
win more than they invest, the real OBJ
ject, of course, being to make money
for the projectors by indulging the
gambling spirit of the people. There
is no lack of that sort of thing in
Cuba. Turning the lottery wheel and
cock fighting are the favorite Cuban
sports, and they are about as ineradi
cable as prize fighting and horse racing
are with US.
