How Race Will Be Bred.

A day when the propagation of
the human family will be under
as strict a law as the breeding of
fine fowls or blooded stock, with
the additional element of religion
to aid science. Fine animals are
bred by science--the science of
careful selection and wise mating.
But it requires more elements
to produce a splendid specimen of
the human family than a perfect
animal.
Fine feathers make fine birds,
and tender flesh and certain pro-
ductive and salable qualities COM
plete the well-bred fowl.
The high bred horse needs fine
points. speed and carriage. But
the perfectly bred human being,
such as the world waits to well
come. must be mentally equipped
and morally endowed, as well as
physically developed. and all
these traits should be equally
balanced.
The man of stunted or de-
formed body or giant proportions,
the anemic and undeveioped tenn
permanent or the oversensuous
and self indulgent, the material
minded or the spiritual bigot, are
all types to be eradicated. The
ideal race-the coming thorough
breds-will be men of good stat
ure and strong vitality, intellect
ual and reverent, and all anima-
ted with an ambition to work to-
gether toward the betterment of
this beautiful world. Deform-
tiles and degenerates VIII be IN
known, save as accidents.
There are few deformed ami
mails, because animals, even when
left to themselves. breed their
young more according to nature
than the average man. All de-
formity of mind and body is the
result of wrong conditions-ig-
norance, self-indulgence, extreme
poverty and extreme luxury. BY

By DOROTHY DIX.

TN a recent divorce case it was
shown that the real cause of
the wife's dissatisfaction with
her husband was because he was
not able to maintain the grand
splurge of their bridal tour
throughout their everyday life.
The wife had been a poor girl.
a stenograp6er. who married
middle-a aged merchant or moder-
ate means. He took her for their
honeymoon to Palm Beach and
other fashionable resorts. and,
dazzled by the magnincence of
the hotels at which they stopped,
she expected the same luxury
ever afterward. The husband
couldn't afford this, and when
called upon to settle down into
a very modest city fiat the wife
became peevish. and fretful. and
disgruntled, and considered her
self so i'll used that she finally
took her troubles to the divorce
court.
This is a sad tale, mates. Let
it be warning to every young
man who is contemplating mat
rimony and who is figuring out
where he shall go with his bride
on their boDaNrYroo,,

and to go to the movies and have
an occasional glass of ice cream
soda.
Many a woman secretly accuses
her husband of being a tightwad,
or of having ceased to love her.
because after marriage he does
not indulge her in the things that
he did before marriage, and that
his munificence then led her to
expect She doesn't stop to reflect
that the money that used to 60
into candy and flowers is now 60
ing into beefsteak and onions for
her daily sustenance.
There is no doubt, however, that
a very large per cent of domestic
misery is caused by men fostering
these false ideas in women before
marriage and leading them to ex-
pect a grandeur that they have no
way of attaining. This not I'M
