Thirty-Seven Couples Married in
rs Minutes.
Confusion VIII Result Unless Great
Care Is Exerciscd-Won,an Tells
Minister Not to Marry Her to
"Wrong BIoke."

London.-Thirty-se weddings in
seventy-f1ve minutes. seventy-four peo-
pie made made happy at the rate of
one a minute, was the record achieved
by the vicar of St. Luke's Canning
Town ('the cathedral of the East')
and his curate on recent holiday
morning.
Never was there such rush Of
marriages at this beautiful church in
Dockland. Despite all the persuasion
OF. the vicar, these thirty-seven copies
insisted upon being married on that
particular morning, after due calling
of banns and payment of fees. Canon
Buckley would have spread the we'd
dings over several days, but Canning
Town refused, and only one couple
postponed the ceremony.
How was it done? The day before
the ceremony was performed most of
the couples called at the vicarage and
furnished the particulars required for
the registry of the marriage. By 9
o'clock next morning they began to as
semble in a vestry-room adjoining the
church. Here they were sorted out
and instructed by the curate, and at
9:45 o'clock the couples marched in
twos and threes-once six couples
at time to the altar. BY IL o'clock
they were all married.
Canon Buckley maintains an admir-
able disciple in on such occasions. He
permits no one to lay trail of con-
fetti in the church which he has Ia
bored for SO many years to decorate
and beautify. Before now he has been
known to order a bride to leave the
church and shake the little colored
bits of paper from her skirt before
she approached the altar. He allows
no laughter or talking, and should he
see woman's head uncovered he re-
quires her at once to cover it with her
apron. In spite, therefore, of the
rough character of the people who
flock to these holiday weddings, order
is often better preserved than at a
fashionable West End wedding.
Poor though they are. the brides of
the dock workers and shipyard men of
Cunning Town insist apon carriage

TRY NUT DIET FOR CANCER
London Physician Is Confident the
Dreaded Disease Can Be Cured
by Means Of Food.

London.-A nut diet Is the latest
idea in the medical world as q pos
sible cure for cancer. DR.. Alexander
Haig. the noted authority on the in
fiuence of uric acid in disease. is the
one who advances this theory. In a
letter to the Lancet, medical publ
cation, he appeals to the profession to
assist him in probing the possibilities
of a real cure of cancer by dieting.
1t has been generally assumed hither-
to that when a recovery from cancer
takes place the disease has not been
properly diagnosed.
Doctor Haig now appeals to his pro-
fessional brethren to send him thirty
or forty cases of imperative cancer
for treatment. He has for years held
the belief that diet is an important
point in the treatment of cancer. The
cases he requires must have prob
ability of at least six months Of life.
as change of diet produces little Wis
ible effect on the patient under three
months.
Doctor Haig's treatment consists in
putting the patient on a ''free-from-
uric-acid" diet and from that on a nut
diet, with fruit juices and distilled
water as the only liquids allowed.

sELF-DEkIALs IN EDUCATION.

Speaking OF the driveling life a
youth must undergo these days and
the many Influences that war with
clean life, clean thoughts and fine
aspirations. Cornelia A. P. Conner. in
"a Letter to the Rising Generation"
in the Atlantic, says: Il don't ap-
prove" your fathers and mothers say
anxiously, but / hate to keep Tom
and Mary at home when all the other
children are allowed to CO." These
parents are conscientious and ener-
getic in looking after Toms teeth and
eyes. and Mary's hair, tonsils and ma
sal passage, but seem utterly uncon-
scious that mental ricketts, and curva-
ture of the soul are far more deform-
ing than crooked teeth and adenoids.
II these children were protected from
q vicious environment and educated
into habits of a pure, clean, sensible
life, there would need be much less
anxiety concerning crooked teeth and
nasal passages, says the Ohio State
Journal. What education needs to
make itself worth while is a conflict
with the vulgarizing influences out
side the home and the schoolroom.
Life has become a hard problem for
the children They are surrounded by
q cloud of pleasures and Vaccinations
that lead them away from virtue. cul-
ture and serious thought. 1t may not
make them vicious and criminal. but
It does tend to make them stupid. in
ane and frivolous. This is certainly
evident to every observing parent and
schoolkeeper.

Five Dollar Tax on Bachelors Asked.
ST. Paul, Minn.-The legislature of
Minnesota is seriously considering a
bill to impose tax of five dollars an
nually upon all male persons above the
age of 30 years who are unmarried or
who cannot prove that they are per-
sons of such moral character as to be
unfit for matrimony. 1t is designed
to use the money collected by this
male poll tax" for the support of in
digent spirsters If the bill is passed.
According to the bills provisions IT
will be in force from and after Feb

VICAR SETS RECORD

fore the altar some care has to be
exercised to prevent mixture of hus-
bands and wives The difficulty was
increased at recent double wedding
at st. Luke's when both brides hap
pened to have the same name, which
led to an audible request from one
that she should not be married to the
wrong bloke"
As soon as the necessary words have
been spoken the couples return to the
vestry and others Immediately take
their places. The signing of the reg
listers is a source of considerable trou-
Bile. Not infrequently the men are
married under wrong names and re-
turn to the church some weeks after
wards with a request that the vicar
shall put the matter right.

The terrible infantile paralysis con.
tinues to be a puzzle to the medical
fraternity. 1t is malady that appeared
years ago, but not until lately has ii
assumed epidemic proportions. The
disease is an affection of the spinal
cord. though It involves the heart, liv'
er. kidneys and lymphoid tissues. Ell.
forts have been made to discover the
germ Of the disease. but it seems to
be SO small as to escape detection.
says the Ohio State Journal. 1t is
possible. that some time this winter
the bacillus will turn up, since great
investigations are going on in the lab
oratories. The devastations Of the
malady seem to have decreased dur
ing the cold weather. but there are
apprehensions that early in the spring
the fatalities will reappear. 1t is hop
ed by then the germ will be found
out and an antitoxin devised for its
demolition. While this disease is
prone to attack children, adults, too,
are subject to 1t. 1t is said about 20
per cent. of the cases die.

No Money for Farming Counties

Governor Shafroth today vetoed
Representative Hasty's and Sena-
tor Stephan's bill which provided
that the state shall pay the ex-
penses of water commissioners and
their deputies, intead OF THE coun-
Ties paying these expenses Is here
tofore. In vetoing this bill. the
governor gave as his reason that
1t would increase the expenses OF
of the state three hundred thous-
and dollars bienntauy. an increase
which the state cannot afford at
this time. He discussed at some
length the schools. experimental
stations. departments and organi-
cations that are maintained at
state expense for the benefit OF
the agrLculturists OF Colorado and
stated that they are now receiv-
ing more direct benefit from state
expenditures than any other one
class OF citizens. He refereed to
the assessment Of local property
by county assessors and maintain
ed that these assessors competed
with each other to see how low a
valuation they could put on local
property, which naturally reduced
the revenues that can be derived
for state purposes off this proper
ty. He maintained that until the
assessors began to place something
like the proper value on local prop
erty it would DO folly to add a bur-
den OF three hundred thousand dol
lars biennially To the already over
appropriated state revenues.
The present assembly has sent
the governor five bills-four OF
which he has vetoed.
Governor Thomas II quoted Is
saying. Every succeeding legisla-
ture tries to make the preceding
assembly appear respectable. but

bility 10 this one."
