The Fort Meade Leader says:
"When a man has lost the confidence
of friends, when people nearest to
him do not believe him, when his
character is honey-eomoed by deceit
and punctured by dishonesty. he is IN
deed a poor man. He is poor when
he makes money at the expense of his
character, when principle. and man
hood do not stand out clear-cut.' This
does not seem to hold good in New
York state. whose newspapers essay
to teach others civilization and NOR
ais. There, when a man does all
the things noted by the Leader, he is
decorated with ribbons and roses.

A report from Paris says that in
stead of the conventional photograph
of a bridal couple leaving church,
one may now have for moderate fee
the entire marriage ceremony per-
petuated in moving pictures for the
benefit of posterity. The Nuptial CT
meme Company is organized to pro-
vide such record. In some respect
it would be superior. to marriage
certificate and might easily add in
terest to divorce proceedings.
