IDEALS OF MARRIAGE.
Comment of English Working
Women on Divorce Laws.

From the London News and LEADER.
But those of us who desire the state
| to offer the possibility of release do so
not only because we think il would pre-
vent suffering and degradation and the
confusion of hypocrisy with truth, bu,
We believe that 1t will have positive re-
suits, that it will cause various tenden-
cies toward good to spring up.
May We not reasonably think that the
ideal marriage will be purified when 1,
is acknowledged that legal and ecclesi-
astical ties alone cannot give a moral
basis to marriage? And IT is not only
the ideal OF marriage which may be
raised Happier marriages are likely To
exist when each realizes that homes
may be broken up and children parted
il husband or wife indulge in shameful
conduct, and fail to win afresh each
well known that men often behave bet
ter before marriage or without mar
riage than after marriage.
There would he tendencies too, to-
ward a noble freedom for women, the
fittest lever for all progress; toward ere
ating more joyful mothers OF children" :"
toward homes "out of which should
flourish forth the vigor and spirit of all
public enterprise" toward a greater re-
spect for and obedience to the law of our
country.
What is the position Of those who op-
pose these views? They refuse apparently
to face the amount and kind of suffering
or to recognize that our present marriage
customs rest on prostitution. They coun-
sci enforced patience and self-sacrifice as
virtues, apparently forgetting that the
essence of remuneration is freedom. They
offer judicial separation. apparently un-
conscious that this is a putting away"
and a dissolution of marriage, whether
there is remarriage or not. and of the
moral effect of thousands Of separated
persons living in state that is neither
married nor unmarried, while they deny
OF building up a new and bet
ter home life to those who have suffered
one OF the greatest tragedies.

MAN AND MACHINE.
From the Chicago Tribune.


No one will dispute DIR. Van Dyke s
statement that the progress of machinery
is leaving behind a trail of deterioration.
Coupled with the machine there have
come into existence the slum and the
diseases incident to slums Nervous dis
eases are on the increase in Industrial
communities. Insanity is increasing the
world over.
The machine, however. is hardly to he
blamed for the conditions that follow in
Its wake. 1t has come not to oppress
mankind. but to aid it. 1t has been the
cause of misery and deterioration simply
because society has not yet learned to
place the machine in its proper niche in
history
The progress OF machinery calls for a
new relationship, for a new adjustment
between man and man. When this new
social contract, so to speak. is ushered in.
the reduction of hours by the machine.
instead OF being a curse to men by dis
placing them from their jobs. will be a
blessing to all by reducing the hours OF
ALL The salvation of the race lies not
in going back to the primitive machine
less age. but in putting invention and
machinery to work for the benefit Of the
race instead Of for the greed Of the few.

Old Enrlish DOG Carts.
From the London Chrunicle.

The employment of dogs to draw Wis
itors up to the Jungfrau reminds u
that there are probably people still liv-
ing who recouect when dogs drew
carts in England. These original dog
carts, which were suppressed by law
in the middle of the last century, were
largely used by costermongers and the
humber members Of the fancy for Sum
day outings. The dogs employed were
large animals Of mongrel breed. with .

But this is the conservative estimate
OF the government engineers Several
prominent engineers told the writer that
If this estimate is doubled il would prob

by men who have made a study OF the

To See the Back of Your Eye.

Behind the eye. what is called the
retina. is lined with branching blood
vessels. and a curious but perfectly
simple experiment will enable you to
see these. Place yourself In n dark
room. opposite a dark colored wall:
then light a candle and. holding IL in
your hand. move IL up and down be-
fore your eyes. all the time looking
hot at the candle. but At the wall be
yond. After n little practice you will
see appear on the wall a great branch
ing figure in black on a reddish sur
face. What you are looking at Is the
shadow OF these blood vessels at the
back Of your own eye Perhaps the
most curious part Of the whole thing
Is that the part Of the eve which re-
ceives the impression OF light must lie
behind these blood vesseIs.-Lon5o

CAN'T DICTATE PRICES
Judge Willard Renders Decision Which
Relieves Retailers From Domina-
ton of Manufacturers

Minneapolis, March ia decision
which, it is believed, will have a
nationwide effect on articles which
the manufacturer compels merchants
to sell at a stated price, was handed
down by Judge Willard in the
United State circuit court, Mime
apOlis
The decision came as result of a
suit brought by the lngersoll watch
company against Henry McColl, al
derman and Seven Corners druggist
st. Paul. Judge Willard dismissed
the suit against McColl and asses
sed the costs against the 1ngersol
Watch company.
The suit was brought because Mr.
McColl had sold Ingersoll watches
for So cents, which the makers de
clare to be in violation of contract
accompanying each watch restrain
ing the dealer from selling the
watches for less than 81.
Judge Willard held that Mr.. Nc
Coll bought the watches of a jobbel
and not from the company direct
and this contract therefore would
not be binding upon him, although he
held it unnecessary to discuss that
phase of the question.
