A SHARP WORD CAN DESTROY LOVE


 If the bride-to-be is high spirited girl she is likely to give him his conge then and there. If the old lover seizes the opportunity to express his pity he has been known to win Loves battle by this sharp manoeHvre. The bidden guests arrive. The marriage duly takes place But there fs no best man. He who was to have acted in that ca pacity weds the girl A girl should know her own heart. and correct its faults, not waiting until the last mo- ment for a final decision, which may bring Humiliation eo one man, even trough 1t brings joy to another.
 The victorious bridegroom in such a case, is never sure that he can keep the heart of a f1ckIe woman. No girl should encourage new lover. until she is sure that her affections are dis engaged.
 Marriage is not for a day, but for lifetime. Two hearts should beat with one accord. Each should feel, even during coTtship, that neither could be so happy with another While re- ceiving the attentions of one man, no girl should encourage the second man to call steadily upon her. No good comes to either man or woman who cheats true love by having two strings to a. bow.

Schenectady. y. Y. June 2o-Stating
that Theron Akin defed an order Of a
court of this state by marrying the CO.
respondent in the divorce action which
his first wife brought against him some
years ago. Supreme Court Justice
Henry T. kellogg has ordered the ex-
Representative TO continue TO pay ali
mony Of $3.50 a year TO the first Mrs.
Akin.
He was a member Of Congress in
19ll-12. with an annual salary of 81
800" said the court, and unless he
takes the position that he was UNIT for
the office and received something for
nothing that salary measures his earn
ing capacity.
The second Mrs. Akin was the orig
inal correspondent. He married her in
a sister state in defiance Of our laws
and order. In effect he demands 10
support the correspondent rather than
the wife. IT has not yet come to the
point that alimony is awarded the CO.
respondent"
