ANSON.

Somerset county is to have the name
of a new town, The town of Arson.
which includes the village of Arson aui
North Arson. is to be divided into equal
parts as near as practicable. The lower
section will be called Arson, and the
part with North Arson village, though
a name has not been decided upon, will
probably be called after the original
name that was given it. The town was
incorporated March !, 1898. 1t was divid-
ed and North Arson incorporated March
20, 1915, and reunited March 10, 1866. There
has been talk of dividing the town again
for the last 10 years. n year ago it
was voted to build a town hall at the
Arson village. which was completed last
fall. and the first town meeting was
held there, last week. Though no plans
have been completed as yet, it is be-
lieved by many that Arson will eventu-
ally become a part of the town of Mad
lson and that Madison on the east side
will be Incorporated separately or joined
to some other town.

NOISY CONTRIBUTION BOXES.
The ciinkins Coins Jared the Nerves
Now They Receive Bills.

We had in our church the old fash
Toned wooden contributions boxes. AS
the pennies and dimes and nickels fell
into them they made such racket
that the sensitive among the brethren
were disturbed in their devotions
Therefore they got a resolution passed
in church meeting, and the contrbu-
ton boxes were padded with green
baize
Still, however the pennies and
dimes and nickels made noise, though
a subdued noise, and still the delicate
auditory nerves of the brethren were
set on edge. Therefore another
resolution was passed in the church
meeting, and velvet bags were sub
stituted for the old fashioned wooden
boxes
Even then, however. the clink of the
pennies, dimes and nickles, as they
fell against one another in the col
lection-b bag, offended the tense nerv-
Gus organization of the brethren, and
they passed a resolution in church
meeting and voted that there should
be no more collections. but that all
gifts for religious causes should be
ildiuSu privately 10 tue cnuFch TREAS
urer.
Thereafter the services were con-
Quoted with perfect decorum, un-
marred by the clash of lucre; until,
that is, it was found necessary to close
the church for lack of funds.
But the next year a revival struck
the town, and the church was opened,
and the old collection boxes were
brought out. and the lining was ripped
cut, and still the offerings were per-
fectly noiseless.
For everybody put in bllls.-Chris-
ton Endeavor World.

Ida M. Tarbell Says Girls Do Not Real
ize the Importance of MARRIAGE.

In the March American Magazine,
Ida NJ. Tarbell, who is beginning a Sc
fics of articles on women, writes of
The Business of Being a Woman"
She says that the ordinary girl is en-
tirely unconscious of the supreme i'm
portance of her mate-to-be Follow
ing is an extract:
The direst result of ignorance or of
distorted ideas of this tremendous
matter of carrying on human life is
that 1t leaves the girl unconscious of
the supreme importance of her mate.
So heedlessly and ignorantly is our
mating done to-day that the
huge machinery of church and
state and the tremendous pow
er of public opinion combined have
been insufficient to preserve to the in
stltution of marriage anything like the
stability it once had, or that it is de-
sirable that it should have, if it's full
possibilities are to be realized. The
immortality and inhumanity of COM
polling the obviously ms-mated to
live together, grows on society. Di-
voree and separation are more and
more tolerated. Yet little is done to
prevent the hasty and ill-consdered
mating which is at the source of the
trouble
Rarely has a girl a sound and in
formed serse to guide her in accept
ing ner companion. The corollary of
this bad proposition is that she has no
sufficient idea of the seriousness of
her undertaking. She starts out as if
on lifelong joyous holiday primari-
ly devised for her personal happiness.
And what is happiness in her mind?
Too often it is that of the modern I'm
easy Woman-the attainment of some
thing outside of herself She visual
ICES it. as possessions, as ease, a good
time," opportunities for self-culture
the exclusive devotion of the mate to
her. Rarely does she understand that
happiness in her undertaking depends
upon the wisdom and sense with which
she conquers succession of hard
places-calling for reimbursement of
her ideas and sacrifice of her desires.
All this she must discover for her
self. She is like voyager who starts
out on great sea with no other chart
than sailors yarns, no other .com-
pass than curiosity"
