The college viii rightly say that
students are supposed to learn how
to spell before entering college. But
lac they did not learn before enter
ing. they should certainly learn be-
fore leaving. In the days OF the
spelling bee" we had good spoilers.
The boy or girl who could spell
down" everybody else In the school
or community had almost as much
distinction as the star player on the
football team has today. and that Is
saying a good deal for the cause OF
photography. Modern educators ridi-
Guile the three RS" but the college

DIVORCE.

Data collected by a London statis-
tician show that one fourth OF the
divorces take place during the first
year OF married life. and Ss per cent
take place within four years of mar
riage. After that the percentage de-
clines rapidly. One reason is that
marriages Of convenience, and al
nuptial contracts not entered into in
good faith reach the contamination
OF the purpose for which they were
made in a short time; drunkenness
and vicious habits, existing at the
time of the union, which make we'd
ded life unbearable for one party or
the other, work their ruin within
four years, or else the aggrieved
party becomes reconciled to the sit
uation; and, finally. the first four
years are the test years. and herein
abides an important condition pre-
Icedent to happy married life.
The high contracting parties are
entering upon a new life. They have
something besides themselves to
think of. Selfishness is the rock on
which many a matrimonial venture
has been shipwrecked. 1t is always
advisable for newly married people to
go away by themselves, where they
will be dependent on each other for
comfort and companionship. where
old home associations and environ
ments will not be constantly beckon
ing them back to old selfish ways
when the little trials of the new way
cause the heart to ache.
As long as each party to a mar
riage contract studies the others
pleasure, the consequence can be
nothing but happy welded life, and
gradually their ways will merge until
each becomes the complement of the
other. neither complete without the
helpmeet.
Parents have much to do with the
welded happiness OF their children.
Selfish. tyrranous. dissipated men.
and selfish. vain, indolent, and some
times dissipated women. are the
products of what their parents per
init them TO grow into, and it re-
quires only one faulty person TO
make a bad match. In America
where companionship is the keynote
OF the marriage bells, no reasonable
man asks that a woman "Obey" him
but comfort and cherish" are obliga-
tions that rest upon woman. She
may aspire to a sphere outside the
home. but she must first fulfill her
obligations in the home, just as the
man must first fulfill his obligation
to Support and cherish" his wife,
before he undertakes to reform the
universe
The divorce evil. like every other
human evil. cannot be cured by con-
crosses. uniform laws or social work
The evil is confined TO the particular
individuals involved and the reform
must be worked in the individuals
II parents do their duty. in training
their children for matrimony, and
not Installing in their minds the silly
idea that money, luxury and vain
show are the essentials of success
full match. the divorce evil will be
remedied Reform is one of those
charities that begin at home.

BibuIouSIy Inclined ChanteCIer
Champion Laid Low After
Bout with Bottle

OCEAN PARK. June 12.-Another
victim was added TO the already long
list Of those supposedly dying of alco-
holism when a bantam rooster died
here today after imbibing a quantity
of whskey. The varicolored bird,
which possessed notable fighting ability
before it got the liquor habit, was
one of several bantam roosters placed
in the window of a local liquor dealer
to advertise certain brand of whis-
key.
Several pint bottles of the stuff were
placed in the pen with the bantams,
and when one of the bottles became
broken the fowls satisfied their Curl
osity by drinking the contents. One
of them got too much of the whiskey,
for in few moments it died, following
a fight with its fellow roosters.
The others suffered no i'll effects fur
ther than to exhibit unmistakable evil
dence of being intoxicated.
