"Triai Marriages"

The Kansas City Star makes the ioi-
,o,,,;ns startling statement that shouid
give pause to every one VINO peileNes
IN tho family: In Kansas City there
10 one divorce resulting from every
four marriages. In the states OF MIS-
souri and Kansas one divorce is the
seouel of every eight marriages. In
the United States one divorce folio"s
every twelve marriages. We mght
as we'll adopt the trial marriage. II
would be little more demoralizlng ana
very much less expensive.
.They order it better abroad. III
Switzerland there is one divorce from
twenty-five marriages, in France one
from thirty, in Germany one from
forty four. and in England one from
four hundred. The fruitful source OF
divorce in our country is the faciiity
with which marriage can be perpe-
trated. We should not mention the
relation as a sacrament in land
where divorces grow on trees ana are
to be had for the plucking-every-
where But in South Carolina, the laws
of which state deny divorce for any
cause whatever.
As a rule our people marry too
young, or marry on impulse. They
mistake infatuation for love. Without
genuine respect man and wife can
not be friends. Where there is no
friendship there is no chumship with
out which latter there can be no hap
piness. The reform requisite, there
fore, is not so much in change OF
law making divorce more difficult, but
change of social custom making
marriage more difficult. Let parents
insist on the young folks becoming
well acquainted before they enter up
on the most momentous of social COM
pactS.

Children in the Coal Mines.

The chief Of the Pennsylvania de
partment Of mines has something o
general interest 10 say about the i'm
proved conditions of labor in the an.
the fact that the principal obstacle
in the way of attaining still better
conditions is the parent who forces tht
child TO work in order to help support
the family. 1t appears TO be common
hing for parents to make false state
ments in regard TO their children's
ages.
THE pathway of the youthful work
err says Mr.. Roderick. is being
gradually freed from the hardships oi
long hours, unsaritary conditions and
inadequate wages, and today he worka
under conditions of safety, convent
cree and comfort undreaned of gen
GRAFTON ago. 1t is matter OF sratih-
catiCn to be able to say that the con-
ditions surrounding this class of work
ers have greatly improved in. the last
decade In addition to the more ir-
teligent ard efficient operation of the
mines and the consequent betterment
in the physical conditions. there has
been a gradual decrease in the hours
of labor and an increase in the amount
of wages paid
Probably the greatest gaht made i'll
labor conditions in the coal fields has
been brought about by humane legisla-
tion regulating the ages of workers.
Years ago little children not more than
s or years of age We're allowed, ana
in many cases obliged, to work about
tho mines. but owing to public senti-
ment opposing the employment or
children of tender years in Industrial
work ard to the more sensible attitude
of the operators. the age limit has eeeh
Increased from year to year until no
ch,Id today known to be under four
teen years of age can be employed at
any Ncrl; whatever, about the mines.

Panama Canal Tolls.
New York TribuneD

tNeW York Trbune.)
The prospective date for the open
| ing of the Panama Canal is now so
near at hand that it cannot be con-
sidered premature to take up for set
tlement the question of the amount of
tolls which are to be charged on
shipping passing through that water
way. 1t is therefore fitting that a bill
dealing with the matter should be in
troduced in Congress, as we are in
formed it will be in the near future.
To the terms of that measure, however,
1.-THE most careful attention needs to be
given.
Press dispatches from Washington
report that the bill will provide for
discrimination in favor of American
shipping, either by eXempting il from
payment of tolls or by retundng them
after payment. The view is that the
canal. being an American work. con-
structed at American expense. should
therefore be administered for the
benefit and advantage of America;
land that as it forms a link between
our two coasts it should be regarded
as an integral part of our coastal
waters.
that our Hay Pauncefote treaty with
Great Britain specifically provides that
the canal shall be free and open to the
vessels of commerce and OF war of all
nations observing these rules, on terms
of entire equality, so that there shall
be no discrimination against any such
nation or its citizens or subjects in re-
spect OF the conditions or charges of
traffic, or otherwise" Also in the Hay
Bunau Narila treaty with Panama the
same stipulation is repeated, by refer
|ence.
Those treaties are still in force, and
there can be no doubt that the United
States respects them and intends to
fulfil their terms. II might be sug
gested that the United States was un-
derstood to be an exception to the rule.
and that ''all nations" meant all other
nations but not this. were it not that
the same article of the treaty de-
clares that the SueZ Canal rules are
substantially adopted. and those rules
do not make any such exception in
favor of any nation. II is obvious.
therefore, that the bearings of the
treaties upon the question of tolls need
to be carefully considered, in order
that we may not be subjected to any
imputation of breach of faith
1t is manifestly desirable that the
canal shall be made as profitable as
possible to this country and to its
commerce. 1t is equally certain that
everything in connection with it must
be done with scrupulous regard for our
treaty obligations.

The Clan as a Social Unit.
Chicago Record Herald.)


Last year the people of Roseland,
out near Pullman. celebrated the first
settlement of their district by the Ton
family of Holland. Since that event,
some sixty years back, the rons have
increased numerically until they num-
ber six hundred or more. and have
grown in thrift until they share the
hegemony of our southern outskirts
with the Pullman. They feel numer-
Gus enough and strong enough to
tackle the great question of the day
the increased cost of living.
Dwelling out there in one big bunch,
they are going to buy wholesale. They
mediate a cooperative general store.
through which various sorts of sup
plies will be furnished all members of
the family at greatly reduced rates.
They are right; for, as innumerable
well-wishers will hasten to assure
them, it is cheaper to buy by the ton
than by the pound.
A Tennyson has observed, the indi-
vidual withers. Even the family. us
Ing the word in the ordinary sense, is
hard put to 1t nowadays to hold its
own. If 1t is to be succeeded, as
seems likely. by associations of fam-
lies, then we have a different social
unit-we are back again in the early
days of the clan. A new tribal moral
ity is developing under the pressure of
modern life. A new tribal economy
may be following closely. Let US
keep our eyes on Roseland. where the
Ton hall may, be the fount and origin
of more than one interesting innova-
tion.

Co-operative Housekeeping.
tCpllipr'SD }


That eternal question. whether 1t Is
wiser to struggle with dish-washing and
the servant problem. or by fleeing to
boarding house end all in indigestion,
gives no worry to a group of progressive
housewives in Carthage. Missouri. A
year ago they started with the idea of
a cooperative kitchen. They have been
approaching an ideal home life without
drudgery. They ordered that each family
bring its own table linen, its own blue
and white dishes-or whatever other sort
carried fond associatons-its own birch
bark or silver or celluloid napkin-rings,
its own cut-glass and flowers. The tables
should look just like those at home. Ihe
menus must suggest real homo cook
ing. The kitchen should have no hotel
and restaurant cooking apparatus-such
as warming tables. for example, which
bring with them the temptation to COOK
the steak in the morning to gain tine
and then allow it to steep all day. The
proper sort of cook was hard 10 find.
The first one couldn't free his mind from
restaurant superStitions. His employers
discharged him one morning before
breakfast and hired n woman instead.
Buying was easier and cheaper for the
cooperation than it had been for indivt
duals Contract were made with far
mers for the freshest of milk and eggs
and butter and vegetables. In the winter
time the kitchen bought who'll lambs and
pigs. Every one from whom the co-eps
had to buy anything was gracious ana
oblging. The simplest work of all was
to get good headquarters. The present
one is a two-story, eight-room brick resi-
denee. 1t is called The Kitchen" but
includes, besides that and the dining
room. a reception room and parlor and
quarters for the servants. For the 30
members of the cooperation only four
servants are required, and these four
enjoying each others company, work
better and more cheerfully than if they
were scattered in homes. The assess
ment for each patron Of the kitchen 1884

ODD ENGLISH VILLAGES.
One Which Has No Public BUILDING
Except a Letter Box.

The English village is very dear to
the hearts of poets and painters. and
thousands of them are certainly
charming. \ few, however, are moro
amusing than anything else, as, for
instance. one which consists entirely
of old railway carriages. even the
chapel being composed of four horse
trucks.
Another village with a population
of LOO and taxed at the valuation
of $4,000, has neither school. church
nor other public building, the only
thing of the sort being letter box
on pillar.
Villages with but q single inhabi-
tant are not unknown, one of them
being Skiddaw in Cumberland The

To piece on population that woul

To piece on a population that would
make of New York city the greatest
metropolis in the world, is the object of
a big band of boomers that is planning
today to ask the legislature to include
the towns of lower Westchester in the
boundaries of Greater New York.
With Yonkers. Mt. Vernon and a score
OF lesser places added to the territory
of the city that is now pressing close
up to their lower lines, it is reckoned
that Gotham would encompass more
souls than London in a lesser eircum
ference. Everything but the consent
of the residents of these suburbs has
today been calculated by the active ad-
vocates of this metropolitan extern
sion; and this it now appears it will be
hard to get. The hundreds of thou
sands of commuters who cross city
limits to get a berath of country life
seem determined to resist to the last
this attempt to lasso their homes
back into the corral of the city.

WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY.
Marconi System.

Marconi System.
| This system is tuned and SyntoniZed.
The transmitter is provided with a
coil giving 10-inch spark: the pri-
mary circuit includes the inductor of
primary winding of the coil. Il simple
spring interruptor and key to break
Iup the energiZing current into dots and
dashes.
| The energy used is obtained from
the lighting main of Il 10 volt direct
current circuit.
The terminals of the secondary coil
are connected with the opposite sides
| of the sparkgap. while the primary
winding of high tension transformer,
| a battery of l. Leyden jars, and the
spark gap. form closed circuit.
The terminals OF the secondary of
the high tension transformer are con-
nected respectively to the aerial wire
and the aerial terminal. This forms
a loose coupled oscillation system.
The receptor now employed in the
Marconi system eliminates the co.
herer and the relay. Taper and reg
lister. formerly employed, and with
these complicated elements removed
the action and operation of the re-
ceptor is exceedingly simple.
The new magnetic detector COM
prises small glass tube, on which is
wound a primary coil made OF
single layer of wire. one of the termi-
mails leads direct to the earth while
he opposite one leads to the aerial
and the earth through tuning in
ductance coil by means of flexible con-
ductors.
The secondary coil is wound around
the primary and is connected with
telephone receiver.
\ flexible band formed of iron wires
and held in position by two opposed
grooved wheels is caused to move
through the glass tube. Two steel
horseshoe magnets are placed in close
proximity to the moving band of wire
When the incoming waves infringe
upon the aerial wire and are convert
ed into electric oscillations the mag
netic intensity of the band is dis
turbed and currents are set up in the
primary coil; these induce currents in
the secondary and in turn operate the
telephone receiver which indicates the
dots and dashes by u series of clicks.
