Cheyenne. Wyo.-The shcepmen OF

| Marriage puts a man up against the
reality of life.
And makes or mars him.
If he takes up the burden of family
life and carries it like a man. it puts
new power into his life.
| Ever see an oriental woman carry a
great jar Of water on her head? What
power and poise and grace in her
movements! The burden does it. 1t
makes her figure straight and her mo-
lions supple
And so of the family load.
he who takes up the support of a
family finds that the doing Of it keeps
him straight and well poised.
Marriage has made shy man self
reliant, a selfish man generous, an in
dolent man ambitious, a self centered
man self sacrificing.
Marriage is the acid test.
1t puts responsibility on a mans
shoulders, and responsibility, rightly
assumed, develops character.
Here is man who, unmarried. is
content to live in comparative comfort
without much exertion. He takes life
easy. He may have gifts, but is with
out ambition. The man marries. and
it begins to dawn on him that increas-
Ing demands make larger income a
necessity.
The new demand is dynamic.
The man bestirs himself He works
hard He increases his income. And
in doing SO he discovers new powers
in himself. Marriage has developed
him.
The dependence of a family upon
him wakes up every fiber in a manly
man. He is made stronger in every
way And
Aside from the financial REQUIRE
ments, the trials and troubles of fam
lily life bring out in him traits Of self
denial and long suffering and devotion
little suspected
Especially does the birth of children
in his family draw out and give ex-
preston 10 all that is strongest and
best in a husband and father.
The bachelor is not so.
He is apt to live a selfish life. He is
apt to be cold and cautious. He is apt
to be heart calleused by the hardening
and depressing of what is best in his
nature.
Moral?
The moral of these observations lies
in the appreciation of them.
