Why the contention, the separations
khe ever-lncreasing ratio of divorces
that follow the marriages of to-day :?
IN short. what is the matter with the
modern marriage?
There is nothing the mAtter with
modern marriage.
The trouble lies with modern men
and women.
And there is nothing the matter
with modern men and women. save
growing pains.
When boys and girls are growing up
they lose much of the charm of early
childhood and display ungraceful and
awkward traits; they do not know
what to do with their hands and feet.
and their manners and attitudes are
self-conscious. They are frequently in
the way of their elders.
So the men and women who are
passing from early immature social
conditions to a higher state are SINH
larlY afflicted.
They have lost the old repose of ac-
cepted traditions; they are restless
with self-consciousness and their man
ners and emotions cause them to be in
their own way and in the way of
others. 1t is often remarked by the
pessimist, who feels that the race is
going to the wall, that divorce is a
modern evil, and that it's frequency to-
day proves how the human family in
civilized lands has degenerated in two
or three generations.
Our grandparents regarded divorce
as a disgrace. There was one divorce
On their day to a hundred in the pres
ent time. But that does not mean that
there were ninety-nine happy mar
r!ages in those days compared to one
In this epoch.
More Patient Then
1t means that men and women bore
their marital unhappiness more pa
tiently and silently in olden times be-
cause II was the custom; and because
they dreaded the scandal and reproach
which would result if they sought free
dom.
Women, especially in the days of our
ancestors, had not begun to feel grow
ing pains. They accepted whatever ills
fell to their lot in marriage with cer-
tam Patient Griselda' spirit, believ-
ing it to be womans sphere in life to
submit to mans will in all things.
If the man built large, comfortabl
barns for his stock and housed his
horses more luXuriously than his fam
lily, If he compelled his wife to do her
household work under the most irving
conditions, If he was niggardly with his
money and Inundated her to the dust
by making her beg for every penny
she spent on her wearing apparel and
then complained of her extravaganza,
she bore 1t all without an idea of re-
belling and told her troubles only to
her mother. who advised her to be
patient and make the best of the
situation.
She had little opportunity to COM
pare her destiny with other lives, as
homes were isolated, methods of travel
primitive and newspapers did not lay
bare the domestic lives of communities,
Hs in the present day.
Even infidelity on the part of the
husband was borne as best it might be
In those days, because separation of
man and wife left the wife with a
stigma upon her forever. And rather
than return to her parents home.
branded and ostracized, she remained
IN her husbands house and tried to
ignore her humiliating position.

who delight in lauding the past to the

thoughts. This young Israelite had
the form of blindness which st. Peter
later described as Seeing only that
which is near
open eyes would solve most of our
perplexities and soothe most of our
fears. So Elisha prayed that the
servants eyes might be opened, and
tain was full of horses and chartots
of fire about Elisha
o weary ones. ye may not see
Your helpers in their downward
flight,
Nor hear the sound of silver wings
low beating through the hush OF
night!
There are who like the seer of old
Can see the helpers God has sent.
And how Life's rugged mountain side
Is white with many an angel tent.
Whittier.
Blinded by the dazzling light of
heaven, the Syrian host was captured
by Elisha, and led to Samaria, where,
instead of Staying them, as was the
usage of the time, the prophet re-
stored their sight, fed them, and sent
them back to Syria, as messengers OF
magnanimity.
The Preacher as a Prophet
What Elisha did for his tatherland
is what a legion of preachers and
priests are doing on the battlefields
of Europe to-day. He gave his best
to his country. He served his own
time No cloistered recluse was he.
Whatever touched the welfare of his
people concerned him. The king on
the throne of israel was not a man
according to Elisha's taste, but he
was king, and so the prophet upheld
him, even at the risk of his own
head.
out of this, and the other Old
Testament stories which we are now
studying, there should come afresh
the message of the high and holy
character of patriotism. There never
was better time than now for in
culcating into youth the truth that
loyalty to country is the second high
est obligation of mortal, only loyalty
to God Himself taking precedence or
it. In every Sunday School class, and
in every church and school, there
should be a cult of patriotism, that
our people may rightly understand
and support the nation. We need
patriotic prophets even more than we
need patriotic soldiers.
Do thy part
Here in the living day, as did the great
Who made old days immortal.
Serving the State anew by virtuous
lives:
Guarding the country's honor as their
own.
And their own as their country's and
their sons;
Defying leagued fraud will single
truth;
Not fearing loss; and daring to be
pure.
Richard Watson Glider.
This is a time for patriotism, and
for praying patriotism at that. Like
Elisha, we should be driven to our
knees by the great emergency of our
time. If the present world situation
does not set Christians to praying,
what conceivable conditions can do
so? sense of our divine allies is
our greatest need. Simple reliance
upon God is our only recourse. Not
by might nor by power. but by my
Spirit, saith the Lord of Hosts"
The Vaster Strategy
Pertinent as powerful comes this
message from ancient Israel's his
tory, of the help that the hosts of
heaven extend to the needs of earth.
Our present danger is that we shall
lose God out of our world. The
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1915-10-22

crushing and incomprehensible con-
ditions abroad which are breaking
our hearts, are fairly robbing some
souls of their faith in God. Yet we
cannot forget that now, as ever In
the past, Gods strategy is vaster
than earth's. His purposes are larger
than our perceptions. What I do
now thou knowest not. but thou shalt
know hereafter"
A large world of love, of brother
hood, of new social order, will surely
emerge from the earth's present social
| chaos. Myriads of disciples of the
Cross in the land we call holy believe
that Christianity is being extermi-
| mated: for the hosts of unbelief seem
| invincible, and they have already slain
approximately half million Christian
women and children. Surely there is
some inconceivably great purpose of
! God to be worked out, if this is the
cost of it. Let us pray for open eyes
and remember the heavenly hosts.
Thrice blest is he to whom is given,
| The instinct which can tell,
! That God is on the field
When He is most invisible"
