There should be no marriage with

Appropriate poems and illustrations

Comradship in Marriage.
Husband and wife must have the
capacity to become good comrades
if marriage is to be thoroughly sue
cessful. When the transports of mere
sentiment have passed and the prob
lens Of life begin 10 appear the i'm
portance OF this will be seen. 1t is
not easy TO say in what good conrad
ship consists. There certainely must
be genlalitv OF disposition, similarity
of likes and unselnshness. One of the
best things to be said about the higher
education or women Is not that 1t
ena bles them to make a living, but
that 1t develops their capacity or
bringing comradeship Into their mar
II.
higher education does not always
mean this--~Al.d- Woman ia-ee, finely
and divinely endowed with the faculty
of sympathy and appreciation nat
these qualities usually compensate for
a lack of technical education. And
a man ought to have this quality as
we'll as the woman.
There can he no true love with
out esteem, This true union must
rest in qualities Of character. which
rule in domestic as well as in public
life There is something radically
wrong when the husband prefers any
society to his wifes
III either discovers you are ILL.,
mated don't despair. But cultivate
the others company. Comradeship
may yet grow up between you. Where
one is angry, cross. mean, you show
the opposite character. Try TO com
mand the love Of the other, cultivate
good temper.
Disappointment.
Some people are disappointed in
marriage because they expect TOO
much from it. but many more be-
cause they do not bring into the re-
lationship their share Of cheerfulness,
kindness. patience aud commonsea use.
THE Golden Rule of married lie is:
Bear and Forhear.",
Marriage. like government, Is a
series of compromises. One must rive
and take, refrain and restrain, endure
and be patience. One may not be
blind TO another's faflings, but they
may, at least, be borne with good
natured forbearance OF all qualities
coed temper is the one that wears md
works the best In married life, How
true 1t is in marriage that soft an

and 1t Is the noblest call that can
ever come TO human soul"
Now how can we bring 1t about"
asked the speaker.
First by surrendering ourselves to
Christ. because only a surrendered soul
can strive and struggle and die. BY
calling on God for a baptism of the
Holy Spirit. The same Spirit that an
mated the apostles to face a hostile
world; to be brave and strong and
heroic in face of danger and Of death.
The spirit that was the Great Com
Ipanion in Islander. Misrepresentation
stripes, imprisonments and ostracism.
By struggling in the name of Christ
for the establishment of the kingdom
of God, or the Divine social order. and
His righteousness. By making this the
first desire of our hearts and with
lsingleness of heart and concentration
of purpose seeking the establishment
OF right relations between God and
men and men and men.
Gods promise Is to the world that
then shall all other things be added;
that is food and clothes and shelter
shall be added for all and not for the
privileged.
LET us not be at ease in Zion that
| Is, let us not be satisfied with the
present social conditions, which are
based on a selfish individualism. and
which are the cause of of much suffer
ing at crime and drunkenness and
poverty and misery, But let us give
ourselves wholly and without reserve
to make the vision of the seer OF
Patmos, the reality of our day and
generation. Let us make the actual
city, inspired by the vision of the re-
deemed city, a city where Christ Is the
| light Of every home, shop, factory,
store and office and bank, where MOTH
ling unclean can exist with your con-
sent, but where truth and Justice shall
prevail Where God Is recognized as
Ruler and the Father and Christ as
Saviour and Leader.

Wait" So Tom grumbled and growled
to no purpose. and was in and out OF
his chair a dozen times during the
period of waiting. though he made 1t a
point to settle himself there some min
utes before the hour of noon. He sat
glowering darkly at his friend and ut
tering sarcastic remarks which the
latter apparently did not hear.
| However the alert watchfulness that
lay behind Van Vechtens imperturb-
ability was infectious, and as the preg-
nant moment drew nearer and nearer
Tom himself fell to scanning the
street. which was quiet and oppres-
sively respectable. and never crowded
with traffic of any sort, even on work
days. On Sundays 1t was practically
deserted all day long-especially mid
summer Sundays.
There was no word from Van Vech-
ten until he quietly announced:
| Here he comes"
| Tom Phinney craned forward. He
beheld a stalwart, well setup young
man in a shabby suit. approaching on
/ the opposite walk. He scrutinized him
intently.
Excepting that it was so nicely
timed, there was nothing dramatic
about the mans advent. Tom even in
dulged in a disdainful "Huh!"-not-
withstanding which he was sensible OF
a distinct thrill when. few seconds
later. the young man mounted the
steps of Number 1913, rang the bell.

measures on the part of the unseen

HOG PRICES GO LOWER.

Washington.-Farm prices for beef
cattle advanced more than 3 per cent,
but average quotations for hogs and
sheep were lower on April Is than on
that date in 1918, according to figures
prepared by the Department of Agri-
culture. Cattle prices for April, 1914.
were s6.29 hundred. an advance of
21c. In Michigan, Iowa, Missouri and
Kansas there was no change in cat
tie prices from 1913 quotations, and in
Wisconsin there was a decrease of
30c hundred pounds.
State averages of prices for beef
cattle showed greater variation than
hog quotations. April's lowest aver
ages were in Alabama. Georgia and
Mississippi, $i.3O. $3.50 and $40, re-
spectively. compared with $3.50 in
Rhode Island. $3.50 In New Hamp-
shire and $3.50 in New Jersey, the

aged below $500.
The average hog price to producers
on April Is was $3.50 hundred. 14c
less than that on that date last year
In all the important hog-producing
states from Ohio to Kansas the de
cline was from 3Oc to 40c. but in some
of the New England states and in
practically all the South except Texas
and Oklahoma, the prices were higher
than year ago.

DEAL MAINLY IN MILLIONS
open-H anded Generosity Of American
Plutocrats Is Something to
Marvel At.

A cable dispatch the past week an
nounced, with quite flourish or
trumpets that the money value of the
magnificent display of gifts at the we'd
ding of the royal Prince Arthur Of
Connaught and the Duchess of Fife
was estimated at no less a sum than
s750,O0O. The number and generosity
of the donors are reported to have oc-
casioned a great wagging of tongues
and a general, lifting of eyebrows in
the assembled ranks of royalty. On
the same day there was recorded a
wedding ct Baltimore on which occa-
sion the father of the groom. Mr..
Henry Clay Frjck, presented to the
bride his check for $2,000,000. while
the fortunate groom received from his
father securities valued at Sl2,000,00O.
No mention was made of other gifts,
which were presumably numerous and
costly. 10 use the familiar phrase. Com
paratively speaking. how meager and
unimposing are the evidences of the

RecIaimlna Zuxder Zee.

Queen Wilhelmina In her speech
from the throne on the opening OF
the Dutch parliament said that a
measure would be introduced for the
reclamation of the Zuyder Zee. The
Zuyder Zee was originally lake. and
the scheme is to make 1t so again by
constructing a great dyke across the
entrance OF the Zuyder Zee and then
build three other dykes around the
coast of the Zee, one running nearly
directly north and south and one clos
ing the western part of the Zee; an
other from near the southern end OF
the first to a point well up on the
eastern shore. while a third one will
stretch northwest in the direction of
the dyke built across the entrance.
This scheme will not touch the center
OF the Zee. which will thus return to
It's former condition OF a lake.

the work will be carried on by means

Rand Gold Industry.

The economic value of the South
African gold industry and the conse-
quences to the world at large. should
a strike ever close the mines for any
length of time, are difiicult to esti-
mate Last year, according TO the
London Chronicle. almost 3S.0O0,OOO
pounds sterling worth of gold was Ia
ken out of the mines of the Wit
watersrand." A large part of this vast
sum remained in the country to be
used to pay the wages of the $4,000
Europeans employed in the mines and
OF the almost 100000 natives.
The recent industrial upheaval in
the Rand" has called more attention
to the Reef" that supplied the whole
world with the greater part of its gold.
because the money centers of Europe
openly feared that even temporary
suspension of work in South Africa
would paralyze the worlds finances.
But, fortunately. this has been averted
by the speedy termination OF the
strike
