EVENING CHAT
BIZ RUTH CAAxERoN.

Here is some very good news that l
found tucked away in a corner of my
morning paper one day:
"A bill has been introduced into the
legislature requiring applicants for
marriage licenses, both men and wom-
en-, to have health certificates dated
within ten days.
Heavy penalties are provided for a
doctor who falsifies a certificate or for
a minister or official who marries a
couple without one"
Why do call that good news?
For at least two reasons.
In the first place, because 1 believe
that the passage of such a law as that
all over this country would mean one OF
the biggest possible steps towards a
single standard of morality for men
and women.
Almost all men, however determined
they are to SOW their wild oats, in the
bottom of their hearts look forward to
a home of their own some day.
If these men knew that by their reck-
less sowing of wild oats they were rua-
ming the risk of making themselves
homeless forever and ever, think they
might be a little less reckless and in
different.
And, in the second place, 1 believe
that such law would strike a big blow
at one of the most gnarled and knotty
and diseased roots of the divorce
evil.
Make it harder for the wrong people
to get married" is coming to be the
universal war cry of the forces that are
fighting divorce.
And If any class of persons is more
thoroughly wrong. from a marriage
able standpoint, than those who viii
spread disease, who will propagate
blindness, who will cause untold suffer-
ing in many ways, they must be hard
to find.
For the woman's club that wants 10
DO something for the Improvement of
womankind's status, for the stability If
the home and for the prevention of d.
vorce, can think of no better under
taking than to see what can be done
about passing a similar law in their
own particular section of the country,
Can you?
And in the meantime why should not
such a requirement be made a personal
affair? If legislators have decided that
conditions are such that legislation If
this sort is necessary, doesn't that fact
point out their duty to the parents of
every manageable daughter?
The father asks his would-be son-ir-
law about the latter's business pros
poets, his ability to support the girl
he wants to marry. Why not about his
condition, his prospects of
making the girl happy?
No good man who really loved a girl
would resent such questioning. He
would appreciate its wisdom. It would
be only the man who could not show "A

fairyland. The castle is situated in a
valley, at the foot of great rambling
mountains. It's mass of buildings look
pure white in the distance. The castle

many countries. There are also rare
collections of curious things, some of
which are exhibited only to specially
favored guests. The most valuable Of
these is a collection of crowns, some
OF laurel and faded ribbons, dated
back to PATHS childhood. Others are
made of silver and gold, set with pre-
cious stones. One. the gift of a Rus

rubies, and emeralds. There are other
wonderfully beautiful gifts from sover-

ton is extensive and priceless.

THE USE OF WORDs

A mental storehouse full of discrini-
mating words has three doors, which
open into three different avenues of
pleasure for its possessor, writes a
contributor to Harper's Bazaar for
July. Through the first door he passes
into an intimate companionship with
those with whom he can exchange the
deepest human experiences that can
be conveyed through words. when
a man has not full possession of
the language" says Robert Louis
Stevenson, 1.-THE most important, be-
cause the most amiable, qualities of his
nature have to lie buried and fall
low" Through the second door one
passes into an exquisite appreciation
of another's thought and feeling.
James Lane Allen, in 1.-The Kentucky
Cardinal expresses this thought most
charmingly. But the finest music in
