The bill advocated by the Audubon
societies of the state of New York,
forbidding the sale within this state
of the plumage of any wild bird which
is protected within New York, has
passed the legislature and is awaiting
the governors signature. We trust it
will receive his approval, says Roches-
ter Herald. For many years the Audu-
bon societies have labored increasingly
to educate the people of this state to
the economic as well as the senti-
mental value of wild bird life. Their
progress has been very slow. The rural
communities of the state, even the
Embarrassing sections of western New
York, have been afflicted with almost
incredible ignorance of the usefulness
of birds. Farmers boys often rob
birds nests of their eggs. and amuse
themselves by aiming their newly &C
quired firearms at birds of every kind.

MARRIAGE AND DIVORCE.

The question of divorces has been
centuries. The Pharisees tempted
Christ by asking his judgment on the
Mosaic law of enforcement, and re-
ceived an answer direct and funda-
mental. 1t has been a serious. con-
tinuous, a vexatious question from
time immemorial, says Newark News.
All governments, clerical and civil,
have tried to settle it and have failed.
Our own government and each of the
states and all the courts have for
many years been trying to establish
uniform divorce laws, and to discour
age divorces, as much as possible.
Yet they are increasing instead of
diminishing. A few denominations
will not tolerate divorces, but the civil
laws recognize them. From the point
of view of the latter the innocent
party to divorce proceedings is guilty
OF no offense, ought not to be held in
dishonor and should be permitted to
marry again. 1t is the abuse OF the
divorce laws by immoral. unconscion-
able, undesirable citizens that has
brought the most serious dishonor
upon the dissolution of the marriage
contract. The Reformed synod's atti-
tude with reference to innocent
parties in necessary divorce proceed
ings accords with general public senti-
ment. What should be done to the
guilty ones is yet under discussion.
