Divorces on the Increase.

More applications for divorce have
been made in this county since the first
of the year, as compared to the number
of marriage licenses issued, than during
the corresponding period of last year.
This year during the past ten months
not only were there fewer licenses issued.
but more applications for divorce were
filed, than during the same time last year.
With view of finding the records OF
this county as has been done for statis-
tical purposes in other places, news
paper man of this city visited the Court
House and made an investigation of the
books. 1t was found that altogether 3T7
marriage licenses have been issued in
this county since the first of the year.
This is not as big business as was done
for Cupid the year previous, for then
at the clerks Office.
Various reasons can be assigned for
this showing. Some say that it is on
account OF the high cost of living that
things are not as brisk along this line.
On the other hand. during the past sum-
mer, the county did not have the drouth
to contend with as it did in the year
previous, if, the weather is condition
which enters into deductions from the
statistical data of this nature.
In this time there were a. applications
for divorce. A year ago there was
just one application less filed. or 43. O
the a. applications this year I6 divorces
were granted; last year, just IS This
year three bills for divorce were dis.
missed and an application to declare a
marriage null and void was granted.
According to the figures this yeaI
there developed one unhappy match in
the county to about every seven mar.
riages, The ratio of divorces to the
marriages in the entire nation is usually
put at about to IL. so that the showing
here is worse than the average. Las
year the ratio here was about to 8
making this year slight increase. Ir
Washington county last year the ratio oI
unhappy marriages, denoted by those
who applied for divorces, to the happ,
ones, denoted by those who did not ap.
ply, was to Io so that Frederick
county's problem is even more seriou.

Associated Trade Boards.

Interest is increasing in the coming
conference Of the Mayors of the State to
be held during the convention of the AS
sociated Boards of Trade in this city ON
November IS. Already a number Of
Mayors of different towns and cities in
the State have consented to attend, and
the conference promises to be one of the
most interesting and memorable meet
ings of its kind held in Maryland.
The time Of the conference of Mayors
will probably have to be switched from
the afternoon as formerly placed on the
program, until the evening. as President
Taft will in all probability come in the
afternoon. In this event the session will
prove all the more interesting.
Mayor James II. Preston Of Baltimore
presides at the session, and several of the
most important executives of the State
will make addresses. Those on the pro-
gram wha have consented to speak, be-
ing Mayor Young of Cumberland Mayor
Scott Of Hagerstown; Mavor Strange OF
Annapolis, and Mavor Mitchell of Elk
ton. Hagerstown Mayor has chosen for
his address Civic Relationship and
Duty" while the other Mayors to speak
have not announced the subjects of their
addresses.
Some of the Mayors who have written
to the secretary Of the Associated Boards
of Trade, Capt. d. John Markey of this
city. that they will attend the conference
Of Mayors are: Mayors Higgins, Easton;
Mehring, Tanevtown; Duckett. Bladens-
burg; Routzahn, Boonboro; w G Platt,
Tacoma Park; E. ]. Sponseler. West
minister; Pettngall, Myersvile; farrell,
Hillsboro; Coiddy, Snow Hill; Fuss,
Union Bridge; Murray, Hampstead. and
Doub, Middletown. A number of others
will probably attend, although no defin-
ite word has been heard from any others
at this times 1t is thought that between
forty and fifty Mayors will attend the
Mayors Conference.
From present information President
Taft will spend short while in Frederick
in the afternoon and all the plans are be-
ing made with this in view. Decorators
are getting things ready TO put on Fred

MOTHER AS A TEACHER.

The perception OF beauty. dormant In
the babe, is easily awakened with the
other growing faculties. The kinder.
garten teachers in this direction are con-
stantly bearing fruit, but let a word be
given to the mothers who have not had a
kindergarten training.
Gather about your children, few
beautiful objects; talk about them; let the
children come, as they will uncon-
sciously, under their influences; let beau
tlful ideas and images grow into their
lives. Perhaps you have dainty head
in marble; put it on a low table TO be
admired, on the window seat TO cast a
shadow in the child's hand while he
looks into the beautifully modelled face,
at the smiling mouth, and the wavy hair.
Take time to read and reread gem
Of poetry, or to sing sweet song to your
children. Above all take time to study
with your children the shading of the
leaf the Bird the bee, the stone, the
pearls Of dew on the grass blade, the
frost glitter, the snow crystal; take time
to watch the trees in their grandeur, the
stretch Of meadow. the sparkling stream,
the cloud mountains, the sunset glory.
Beauties will be revealed to you you
know not Of
Even from our crowded city streets,
to the eye that is opened and the heart
that is awakened. beauty has not fed.
The hickering light and shade weave
themselves into exquisite patterns on our
walls and pavements, the trees throw
their long, dark shadows, the mists rise
soft and gray, the sun pours its food
OF golden light down the long dusty
streets; to the ear that is attnncd, har-
mony rises from the discord of sounds
He who loves beauty and is looking fol
It will find it everywhere. And tn,
