About Remarrlage.

A curious feature of the new code Is
that whereas ordinary discretion will not
entitle the deserted party to marry again,
he or she may remarry IL the other leaves
the orthodox church. The reason given
against accepting desertion as ground for
divorce is that II would lead 10 collision
and multiply the number OF frivolous cases.
Desertions are the more numerous be-
cause Of the early age at which most Rus
SLAMS marry. Boy and girl marriages are
an ordinary occurrence among the students.
Peasant youths Of Is and 10 are encour-
aged by their parents TO marry, because the
young wife adds to the family stock OF
field labor. The bridegroom's mother often
selects the bride and looks more for
strength than any delicate charms, hence

If 1t Happens In Your TOWN.

Bob Hanley, of Colfax, 10 wa, in
a drunken freuzy recently drove
his wife, q frail little woman, from
their home at midnight into the
bitter cold, clad only in her night
dress. Carrying a child three
months old in her arms and crazed
with fear lest he follow and shoot
her, she ran in her bare feet
through the snow to the home of
her nearest neighbor. Her feet
and limbs were frozen, and cruelty
cut by the rough roads over which
she Had fled. To keep her child
from perishing she had wrapped
the little clothing she had about
it. AT last she fell fainting on the
steps of a neighbours house.
When she regained consciousness
her first sentence was: 81 still love
Bob. Don't let anyone hurt him."
If the treatment of this woman,
who is the mother of eight child
rem, or anything like it occurs in
your town will you have any re.
sponsibility for the tragedy? Can
you truthfully say before God
a md man that neither by voice MOI
vote have you contributed to hel
suffering?-The Amethyst.

vice. 1t would bring together in
pleasant and helpful relation fam

multitudes of men to themselves.
But how shall it be done? Let the

at once and forever, quit voting
for it directly or indirectly, OF
