 "I have always believed in making the ceremony fit the occasion. In oth' CT words, 1 have . different service for each marriage. Long ceremonies are boresoma Therefore I try to make mine as short as possible.
 "As for the word obey I had only one girl who wanted to make such a crazy promise. In fact, she insisted on it. There was only one thing for me to do. l refused to marry her. She had to take the bridegroom to another minister.
 "No woman obeys her husband No man with common sense asks his wife to obey him. In fact, 1t Is a greater disgrace to expect than to give such a thing. No man would respect another man for demanding it. Therefore ] think it is positively wicked to use this word in the marriage contract It is spiritually and morally wrong to encourage a woman to make prom ise she knows in her heart she will not keep. She becomes a fool and a perjurer at the same time.

 "Why. then. should we try to force ourselves to believe that they will live happy ever after. when the divorce records, showing the large percentage of separations, stare us in the face7 In such cases they may be sincere enough at the time-most of them are. for that matter-but the love and affec' ton die out with time.

seventeen birthday of his mother

aside this year, on account of the

Among the guests who had been in

were Emperor William and the En-

birthday 1t was recalled by many
that the marriage of Queen Alexan-
dra was the first ceremonial function
which the Emperor ever was allowed
to attend. He then was a small and

INVESTING IN SAVINGS BANKS

Interest is being expressed In thf
coming one hundredth anniversary o.
the first American savings BANK
which was started SO years ago In
Philadelphia. These banks have had
a marvellous growth with deposits
today totaling nearly five billions OF
money.
= aThe development Of savings banks
is matter of great public import
ance, from the fact that so many 7eo-
ole know so little about securities.
II small investors lose their little
capital, they conclude that they might
iust as we'll spend their money and
get the good of 1t, as to lay it away
only to see 1t lost by dishonesty or
fncompetence This discourages
thrift, reduces the supply of loanable
capital restricts the development OF
the country, besides causing no end
Of personal suffering
Some people have the easy impress
sion that anything bearing the title
of Savings Bank is sound and secure.
Unfortunately the laws and financial
practice OF the various states vary
greatly The banks in one state may
be sound and solid, while right over
the border there may be loose laws
and perfunctory inspections.
The savings bank near home is apt
to be the safest investment. 1t comes
down largely to ease of the person
ality Of the men. Any intelligent
workingman can form general i'm
preston as to the ability and eff
cheney of the officers in charge of a
bank in his own neighborhod. AL
small bank near home, handled by
men OF prudence and common sense,
is a safer risk for the small investor
than some bigger institution miles
away. The distant bank may have
grander pillars and finer marble. But
