A Travesty on Marriage

II TSHoP HUGHES aays that
ID Mrs, Wentworth, the Boston
Socialist, who gave her hus-
band up to her friend, 10 a wicked
woman. as well as q foolish one.
'"xrss whole AFFAIR lie a travesty
on marriage" says ths bishop,
What is the world coming to when
such woman as that can be ad-
nired. nay. even honored, for doing
such a thing?"
Well, I'm afraid none of us, even
the wAsest. has really much Of an
idea as to what the world is com
ing to, but 1t certainly is a strange
affair. this affair of the wife who
gives her husband UP TO another
woman and says that she is perfect
ly happy to do it.
Wife Gave Bride Away.
l know a woman who did this
very very same thing, brilliant
woman, close akin to genius.
The woman's friend fell in love
with the woman's husband. and the
woman said, There, little girl:
don't cry" when the friend tried
to slip away before any harm came
OF it. i've seen it from the very
first. and I am glad am not hap
ny with this man: he isn't happy
with me. why should we both be
miserable to say nothing to you?
Why don't you SEND me away and
marry each other2'
Which was, after some deiibera-
ton and much discussion. exactly
what they did. Only the wife came
home at the last minute and gave
the bride away at the wedding.
And some said, How horrible!"
and some said How noble!" and
some said, How tragic!" and some
said, How funny" and the wom-
ans frienu and the womans hus-
band went away to live and were
apparently very. very happy.
And this Is the whole queer part
OF the whole queer story, to me.
They took the woman's little girl
with them to a foreign country,
where she would not see her moth
ell once in six years or so. and the
mother was GLAD to have her GO.

and the little girl was glad to GO.
There is the whole truth about
the whole AFFAIR. don't know how
to explain It exactly-but there it is.
Made Name For Herself.
The woman was clever woman,
an honest woman, and, according to
her ideas, "a conscientious woman;

ARTICLE II.

Probably for the good of society
divorce ought to be allowed. No
decent man ought to be yoked to a
harlot, and no virtuous woman to
a brute. But the grounds for di-
vorce are. in my opinion, too nu-
merous and the facilities for OBJ
tanning them are too great. In
some Of the states the facility for
dissolving this most important of
all domestic relations is so alb
surdly easy and quick that there is
an approach to dissolution of mar
riage at the will Of the parties. This
tends to marriage at will, marriage
on trial ard eventually to free love,
so called.
Human experience has long dem
onstrRted the imposslbility Of com
pletely Graduating the social evil;
the attempt has been made off and
on for more than twenty centuries,
and almost every possible method
has been tried. Yet the evil still ex-
lists, and there are many good peo-
pie who have come to advocate reg
ulation, while others believe in seq
regation, and others In laws which
are more deterrent than prohibi-
tive. AS great as the evil is, there
has never yet been complete sup
preston and perhaps there never
will be, but the laws universally
aimed against 1t have, at least, been
datay.ve1,f

but she dfdn't seem to know how to
love. and, not knowing how to love,
she didn't know how to suffer, and,
not knowing how to suffer, she was
quite happy in her way, so long as
she had a chance to do what she
called tive her own life"
She lived her own life success
fully, too, and made name for
herself, which she never could have
made If she had been what she
called 'hampered" with the husband
and the little girl, and she was and
is still. 1 hear, surrounded with ad-
mirers-men and women-who
make a little court for her and call
her queen.
They we're quite comfortable and
sensible about it, they said. They
took a good deal of pains to say
1t, thought-the husband, the wife
and the wife's friend now not a
wife at all. But don't think it Will
last. Things that are not right
never do last.
The little girl didn't say q word.
keep wondering what she thought.
The little girl--she's the one I am
interested in, for she will in the
course Of nature live when the rest
are gone. II is her fate to hand the
torch of life on and on again when
the other three are quite in their
graves. What sort of children will
that child's children be?
She's the Only One That Counts
VIII they believe in marriage I'M
til death do them part. or look upon
it only as an experiment? VIII they
believe that duty is duty. no mat
ter how many people it kills. or
will they think that divorce an
swers all the hard questions we hear
in the matrimonial witness box?
wonder and wonder; for after
ALL the little CIR, is the only one
who really counts much in such n
case--isn't she?
l wish I knew now she felt about
it all. and how she viii feel when
she is woman and knows what .
now she only vaguely feels.

Drunkenness Causes Trouble.


Drunkenness is a great and long
existing evil. All sorts Of expedi-
ents have been resorted to for pre-
venting It, and the most severe
penalties have been enacted to pre-
vent the manufacture and sale of
intoxicating liquors, and yet there
are few, IL any, places where the
use and abuse of liquor have been
successfully prevented. So we have
with us drunkenness as an ever
present evil, and the best so far
done is 20 pass laws deterrent and
to elevate humanity beyond and
above the drunkard. I believe from
many years Of observation that
drunkenness is on the decline: not
so much from prohibition statutes
as from education and a change in
public opinion from the old idea
that the hero of feast is the last
man up at the table
So with divorce--the evil can
not be eradicated, perhaps ought
not to be attempted, but it can and
certainly ought to be curtailed.
Take the state OF South Carolina,
and there no divorces for any cause
are allowed. 1t is true that a good
many people move from that state
70 other states and get divorces. but
the fact remains that there are
fewer separations between husband
and wife in that state than in 9TH
er states where the facilities for
getting divorce are easy and quick.
