MOONLIGHT AND MATR1MONY
By Mdude Marie

"Yes,' agreed the Bachelor, "but the stockholders, in that case, are the clergyman, the justice and the furniture man, the butch CT, the baker, and likelier than not in the end, the divorce lawyer. Those fellows get all the dividends. They do the gIeeful capering while the married people pay the piper"
 But, my dear man, protested the Newly Married, "you picture only the unfortunate and the rash You forget the binding quality of Love. Love is most divine and mysteri- ous thing. It is made up of respect, con genialty, self sacrifice and affection Once in its thrall, a man never wishes to escape"
 ''Indeed !' interiected the Bachelor, ''that may be true of a few, but think of the great suffering majority. If 1 had to give the chemical analysis of Love, l should say that its ingredients are a man, a maid, a grape arbor, a dash of moonlight and sentimental tendency. When this compound is put in the family jars and allowed to stand for a few years all that remains is a precipitate of general discomfort with strong traces of ali mony And if the substance doesn't explode and blow household into smithereens, the amateur chemists may consider themselves fortunate"
 The Newly Married One resorted to ridi- cule. "For all that" he sneered, ''you may be the first one to go experimenting. Some moonlight night when you are conducting some maiden through the mazes of a park you will get the madness the same as the rest of us, and awake the next morning to find yourself in lifelong bondage"
 The Bachelor sighed resignedly. 'Yes," he agreed, "doubtless 1 shall do as you say. Those ancients that believed insanity was due to the rays of the moon and so invented the word unatic, knew thing or two. It's mad ness does get into a fellows brain and drives him totally daft But it's pity, just the same, that man can't go out on little sen timental debauch, and indulge in his madness without awaking the next morning to a life long residence in a conjugal asylum. The trouble is-'
 But the Newly Married One had fled pre- cipitatey homeward in the darkness. And the Bachelor discovered that his Royal Sweeper had gone out, and pitched the re- mains of it into the gutter.
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1909-06-23

The Bachelor and the Newly Married Man lounged in front of the Dominion hotel. They tilted comfortably back in their chairs. Their feet dangIed mdifferenty over the concrete wall in front of them. The polyglot aromas of two Royal Sweeper cigars were waited in clouds about their heads The first half of the new moon was just breasting the cornice behind them. In the glory of it's effulgence, they grew reminiscent and philosophical The Bachelor settled back in his chair, pointed his Royal Sweeper at the Pleiades and quoth from the poets
 "A bee knows bloom may be dripping
 With nectar or poisonous lees;
 But he can't tell which one save by dipping
 His nose in each flower he sees.'
 "Did you ever refect,'' pursued the Bachelor, "how apropos that jingle is of the ways of men and maidss' The pitiable feat ure of matrimony is that one never knows what the deal has brought him until his hand is played, and then it doesn't make any diff ference. If fellow draws poor hand at poker, he can throw down his cards in dis gust and quit the game But in the marriage game, there isn't any quitting, at least, of the kind man likes to resort to. There's nothing to do but play your hand grimly through, even when there isn't decent face card in the bunch Now man can take his chance on a lottery, and if he draws a blank, he can kiss his money goodbye and throw away his number And then, too the worst he can do is to get a blank But when one makes draw at marital felicity, and loses, he has to retain the blank the rest of his life And what worse, he has to pay goodly sum for the privilege of keeping it, even after he has paid the original purchase price in bon bons, flowers and livery bills. Matrimony is a mammoth lottery company run on the assess ment basis. And it's like life insurance policy, the assessments never cease until death releases you"
 "Huh!" snorthed the Newly Married Man. '"The trouble with you is that you never got your courage up to the point of taking a chance. A fellow sees things very differently when he is stockholder in that lottery com pany and is getting rich on the returns"

bulk at the expense of external Appearance. And yet nothing, except actual commercial dull ness is more fatal to municipality than this very thing
 The average homeseeker is guided primarily by his business interests and, Secondarily, by the appeal made by his first impressions of a place. An attractive plaza, with trees, green grass and shrubbery near railroad station is likely to prove gold mine to the city which makes it. But it is must be admitted that in the rush of business life that attends the mak-
 ing of city it is difficult to find the time for ex- ternal decoration. So the town grows up lack ing arboreal ornamentation, or at the best, such decoration is left to the sporadic attempt of the individual to beautify the particular refuge and garden spot where is his home. In the work ing out of such a scheme, the ornamentation of the public squares and streets is often for gotten.
 With view, then, to having city beautiful, would it not be feasible to found a Municipal Art Society," The name may at once suggest to many people the dark recesses of cloistered studios, cadaverous individuals with plethora of hair, and the polyglot odors of bohemian cooking. If so, the name could be changed. Call it City Improvement Society," call it Cti- zens League, call 1t anything under the sum- so long as it fulflls the needs that give it a reason for being.
 An organization of this kind could receive as members anyone in the city who was enough interested in the municipal Identification to pay a small yearly fee of two or three dollars. The services of its officers would be voluntary and gratis. This would leave the entire income of the organization available for the doing of prac- tical work such as the making of public parks and the transplanting of trees along our main thoroughfares. With several hundred mem bers, the fund would in a short time, grow to considerable size, and the making of the city beautiful could go rapidly forward according to the plans made by the society Such an or ganization could use its influence for the re- moval or prevention of eyesores on our streets, and would probably find in few years that its efforts had resulted in very pleasing total of improvement work. This work will have been an important factor in the winning of new and desirable citizens for Globe. And all this could be accomplished with the expenditure of com paratively little money, work and time. Is such a society not worthy of reflection, and if its founding can not come at once, will it not be well to keep some such plan in mind for the future when Globe will have spread far beyond her present limits9
