THE sAcREoNEss OF MARRIAGE

At the general assembly of the south
ern Presbyterian church at Atlanta a
resolution was passed declaring mar
riage to be a sacred institution and
calling for more strict and uniform
marriage and divorce laws. Every ex-
preston of this kind is helpful, yet it
would seem that the marriage question
might be made more a matter of
church discipline than it is Some de-
nominations have no disciplinary ma
chinery, large latitude being allowed
to individual ministers and churches.
But there are ministerial associations
and various organizations which might
so strongly set their seal of condemna-
ton on the performance of the mar
riage ceremony by a minister, save
under proper conditions of caution,
that it would amount in force almost
to authority.
Those who have made a study of
the divorce evil have learned that
much of it is founded on the marriage
evil. Too easy marriage leads to di-
vorce. Elopements, dares, joy ride en-
gagements, divorce marriages, too
youthful marriages are all brought
with the potency of divorce. 1t would
seem that the best way for the church
to emphasize the sacredness of mar
riage would be for it's ministers to re-
fuse to perform the ceremony in all
such cases. A safe rule would be for
a minister to refuse to perform the
ceremony unless he knew personally

turkeys al the Banks home Turkeys
 as every one knows are rovers by na- ! ture and on this day strayedf far to- wards hte fence line, followed faith
 fully by the sentinel dog. Suddenly a predatory cat appeared crouched ready to spring upon its prey, a. reck- less young turkey in hot pursuit of toothsome butterfly. There was no tragedy for the dog was on his job. In the vaulting leap the cat caught landed, it whirled, 1eaped and bound ed for the fence. Over 1t went with the dog hardly a eats length behind. The cat escaped, but the Banks dog cannoned right into the head ana shoulders of the GreenbIatt dog which
 had come down to investigate and was calmly waiting on that side. Both were evidently surprised as the parks
 indicated but in a moment the war was on. The yelps and snarls, the how1s of rage and pain from the con testants were heard all over the neighborlnood, and people rushed from their houses to find out what the matter was. A little girl pointed down the hill where a confused mass of dogs might be seen through the dust arising from the p1owed field, in nor tai combat and shouted mad dog. . Hastily the children and women were put in doors and six men seized their shot guns and advanced towards the PIace just in time to see one dog fgo high in the air over the fence, not in the usual way, but end for end as stick does through the air, and the other tdog panting, exhausted and bloody lying prone on the ground. It was the Greenblatt dog. Then dn pursuit of the rabid dog rushed the good men of the hamlet through the
 field to the road where they saw the retreating form of what to them was strange dog, undoubtedly mad. Ar rived in front of Lewis house they found him coming out to meet them, ttWhere's the mad dog? Get your gun, Levi were the shouts that met his ear. 'Mad-nothing mad fools,'' burst from Lewis lips uproarious1y; you need a. conservator put over you; that's what you fellows need. That dusty dog there is my dog Teddy, had g, run dn with Ellis dog. Ellis dog chucked him back over the fence, and he's come hl1r1-licked,-and he knows it;
 that's all But if my dog could laugh he'd have the grand ha-ha on you feIIers. You's better go hum and say no more about this. Eli and are good friends and we're going to be- So are the dogs, now that they've fully learned their places. And your place is to hum and not round here trying to give my dog a bad nameH' And this ended the mad dog scare on Rotsford Hill. AS the chagrtned neighbors, crestfallen, returned to their homes, they found the Green bfatt dog recovered from the exhaust ton due to his great feat Of strength in ntrling the Banks dog to his side Of the line, and was stretched out quietly on Its masters door step.

years.
He said that all OF the stock issued
by the Pere Marquette had the stamp
of approval of the state of Michigan
uopn it and was bought by the hold
ers with the assurance Of it's legal
ity. II the state attempted a force
full reduction of the debt, the common
stock would be the first item that
would have to be reduced, next would
be the s5,000,000 in debentures issued
to the stockholders who contributed
that sum to the road in 1904, and
next would come the sS,000,000 in
notes issued in 1911 to defray legiti-
mate expenses, making a total Of close
to 5000, 900, all of which would
come from people who had acted in
