Grim facts are behind the re-
quirement of health certificates
before marriage. But the strong
American convention against
frank discussion of any but the
sentimental phases Of sex pre-
vents these facts from gaining
currency. In France there is
more candor on such matters,
and a prominent member of the
French Academy, Brieux, has
even written a play to illustrate
the most sinister phase of the
problem. However, there is a
broader and less distasteful basis
for a general requirement of
health certificates, There should
be no false sentiment about MAX
ing this demand. In due time
society will take much stricter
measures respecting entrance
into the marriage state than it
now does, but meanwhile the ae-
ton of Dean Sumner offers a
very useful example Of extralegal
action, which it is to be hoped
will be widely followed. 1t calls
attention to the need of caution
and common sense. The hasty
or ill-considered marriage is
a worse menace to society and to
the individual than the easy d.
vorce. Chicago Tribune.

+ New Plan Ct Handling Freight

A new plan of handling fast
freight shipments on the Mis-
soar Paciiic-IrOm Mountain syS-
TEN that IS expected to prove
popular with the patrons was
installed April 1st. The impor-
t&nt feature is the prompt infor-
nation given shippers regarding
the movement Of their freight.
Under this new method COM
moditie5 offered for transporta-
ton are divided into two classes
red ball and ordinary freight.
The former group includes all
p3rishabIe goods, foodstuffs, fur
niture, machinery, dry goods,
glassware, oils, hardware, all i'm
port and export freight, and
various other commodities. Or
binary freight is non-perishable
and is made up Of all shipments
which do not come within the
classification OF red ball.
All district terminals on the
system have been designated as
"symbol stations and a symbol
letter and a series of numbers
assigned each. Thus, Saint Louis
is indicated by the letter "S'
and the numbers assigned that
particular station run from 1 to
500. Cars of red ball freight
loaded sat Saint Louis will be
symboled 81, So, SO, in con-
seeutive order.
Red ball" is fast freight, and
it is made up in separate trains.
A conspicuous red ball" card
containing the symbol letter and
number assigned the car is tack
ed on it, and this recorded in a
book together with the contents
and destination of the car. This
record of the train is telegraphed
to the Office of the Superintend-
ent Of Transportation. Every
consignee of freight is advised
on what day and hour it left St.
Louis and when he may expect it.
Check is kept of the progress
Of the car by means of brief
symbol telegraph reports, and
patrons are kept advised. When
q Car Of red ball freight reaches
it's destination report is made
at once to the consignor.

Former lowans Up Against ssvsrest
Weather Known in Colorado.


Letters to friends here from former
residents Of the Clemens neighborhood
who, few years ago went to eastern
Colorado and took claims in kiowa
county, tell of unusual hardships and
experiences as a result Of the almost
unprecedented cold weather and deep
snow, where formerly mild winters
have been the rule. The short grass
upon which livestock mostly subsists
during the winter season, has been
deeply covered with snow for some
time and cattle and sheep are perish
inS by hundreds in various localities.
Homesteaders are also facing many
privations. Louis Brackney, who has
held down his claim for about five
years and is determined to stay until
he can prove up, il cutting down his
fence posts and burning them to keep
his family from freezing, and others
are in hard straits for provisions and
fuel and feed for their stock. Crops
during the past two seasons almost
failed on account Of the drouth, and
al a result all commodities are both
short in quantity and high in price.
But the dry landers" are facing the
hardships with rare courage and the
hope that they will raise good crops the
coming season. as the deep snow. while
a present menace is a real blessing, in
that 1t will moisten the soil doubtless
to a greater depth than for many years
heretofore.
