MARRIAGE NOT MERELY
A PERSONAL MATTER
Church Council Looks Upon 1t
From the Standpoint of
Humanity.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Dec. 9.-The di-
vorce courts, as busy as they are. re-
veal but a small proportion OF the
marital infelicity in this country. saws
the commission on family life, which
reported at today's session of the
quadrennial meeting of the Federal
Council of the Churches of Christ in
Am flca. The report included sta
tistcs and discussions of many phases
OF the complex problems of marital
relations.
AS To divorce IT says: at this mo-
ment IT is thot that one marriage in
ten is broken by divorce. and that in
some states the proportion may be
as high as one in four"
1T is striking fact" the commits
sion says that in the majority of
divorce cases dissolution of marriage
has occurred, not hastily after a brief
trial, but deliberately after n con-
siderable period of marriage; the
average exceeding six and one-half
years. Common observation will show
frequency of divorce among people
VINO nave been married twenty years
or more"
The commission believes that the
entrance of women into the indus
trial field plays an important part
in the increase of divorces. 1t de-
plores the fact that unfortunately
the larger part of humanity in Amer
lca, as elsewhere, are strangers to the
lotty views which the church enter
talns of marriage.
When we are seeking therefore
remedies for the evils of our lax mar
rage ana divorce practices our ulti-
mate and most effective method will
hn In,
churches may give to their adher-
ents. supplemented by such work as
the educational institutions of the
country may be induced to under
take. This instruction will bear upon
the Ideals of marriage. 1t will teach
that marriage is not contracted as a
mere convenience and for prudential
reasons. that 1t is not even primarily
intended solely for the personal hap
piness of those who contract II: but
that 1t is Indispensable to the proper
iilling out of the life of human be-
ings, that ii is one of the most effec-
tive methods of developing character.
and thar the preservation of the in
tegrltN OF marriage and of the family
institution as whole il the only
process by which truly divine order
for society can be maintained.
NO legislation, however sagaciously
framed. can ever effect complete
cure of marriage EMBELLISHMENTS, but
such preventive measures as give
promise of diminishing the evils
which are now so abundant will COM
mend themselves to thotful versions.
The fact that in 23 states what are
known as common law marriages.
In which a man and woman take
each other for husband and wife
without the services of civil officer
or n clergyman and frequently with
oet any witnesses are recognized as
valid, calls for serious condemnation
and no reform Is more needed than
legislation declaring such unions TO
be null and void everywhere in the
United States"

GETS EVEN WITH SINGER
Irish Tenor Becomes Angry When
Almircr Sends Roses and Kisses.

WICHITA. Kan, Dec. 9.-It de-
vcloped today why John Mccormack,
the famous tenor. was so cold to his
audience of four thousand persons at
the Forum last night. He was mad
Cormack's rosy check. The admirer
and fellow lrishman rushed up to him
behind the curtain and throwing his
arms about the singers neck planted
Il rounding kiss square on Nc
Cormack's rosy cheek. Theadmirer
occupied a seat in the front row under
the improvised stage. and when Nc
Cormack made his first appearance
the admircr sent "A huge bouquet of
flowers to him. Mccormack kicked
the flowers aside and growled loud
enough for scores in the audience to
hear what does he take me for. an
old woman2" 1t is reported the ad-
mircr was getting even with Nc
Cormack. who pulled IA stunt on him
several years ago.

 It Is doubtful whether in any coun- try in like period such tremendous changes have been introduced Ex- ports have increased from 18,00O, 900 yen in 1910 to 34,00O,O00 yen in 1914, while imports advanced from 39,OOO,. 900 yen in 1910 to 7l,O00,O00 yen in 1913. Even the population is increas- ing rapidly, having advanced from 13.- 000,000 to 15,000,000 under the new regime. This is largely due to the strict sanitary measures taken and to the activities of the eighteen great charity hospitals and the scores of dis pensaries scattered through the coun- try. Vaccination is still enforced at certain times. and opium users are ar rested and forced to take treatment for their evil habit

 What Japan Is Doing for Korea.
 Japan Is the only country that is sub sidizing it's colonies to any extent (from four to six millions, gold, a year), and Japan Is the only strong and virile nation that has offered and is trying to assimilate weak nation over which it has secured control Doc tor Speer was filled with amazement at the changes that had taken place In the eighteen years since he had visited Korea, and even we who live in Chosen are amazed at the miracles that are constantly taking place before our very eyes.

DESIGNERS HAVE SENT OVER
 MANY PRETTY THINGS.
Nt.s Coats Have Touches That Give Them Distinction-Soft Broadcioth May Be Brought Back
 Into Fashion.

The new coats which have arrived here seem to indicate that a number of the designers have taken up the idea of fastening the coat at the col larbone and at the waist line When the coat is single-breasted the blouse usually shows through the opening, which naturally occurs between the two widely spaced buttons. If a wom- an does not like this, however. it is better to give enough width to the under front piece to hide the blouse.
 Although there are high, rolling collars at the back of many of the new jackets, there are also revcrs that run down to the chest and sometimes further.
 Here and there one sees i'll the new gowns some remarkably lovely mate rials which we will not be able to duplicate in thi. country. Barring these, there,is a lack of new materials, and it is probable that this season our dressmakers will not encounter one of their most serious obstacles ill copying French models, which is the inability to secure enough of the ma terial in the original gown.
 This is the reason that your dress maker may have persuaded you in the past to have your French model copied in another color and fabric; you were not aware that she could not get the original material in this coun- try and that she had not ordered enough of it from France to satisfy the demands of her patrons.
 Serge, gaberdine and all manner of silk supply the needs of the dress making world this spring, but Jenny, Bernard and other houses may bring soft broadcloth back into fashion through their sponsorship of it. One does not usually think of broadcloth as a spring fabric, but the present

CHARM IN MOBILE MOUTH

quently retain an expression of youth never found in those who have not frequently exercised the lips in these ways.
 To encourage upward trend of the mouth we must begin at the founda- tion of beauty, character We must encourage beautiful, kind and pure thoughts. We must think of the sweet, joyful things in life, not of the dis couraging, wicked ones. The next step toward developing a beautiful mouth is a full set of teeth in per. feet condition
 There are several exercises which keep the lips mobile and flexible Whistling is good if not overdone Blowing out candle or an imaginary candle light is also good. But best of all is to toss a feathery dandelion into the air and blow it about, laugh ing at the sport which is derived from this, or blow soap bubbles. Blowing them about the room is a good lip exercise.
 Do not bring the lips tightly togeth- CT. That spells the mouth, adds lines and wrinkles, and makes the face old. Always let the lips fall lightly to- gether.

Point of Beauty Which All Women Should Do Their Very Utmost
 to Attain.

It is said by physiognomists the mouth is the feature which most truly expresses the character. Mouths have won more men for women than any other feature. A man when away may forget the glance of an eye, the shape of the face, but some expression of the mouth still remains with him perma. nently.
 Many women who have no other good feature seem to be beautiful be- cause the mouth is bewitchingly at tractive, and tells of soul that is big and fine. It Is an easy matter for us to do for the mouth what nature did not do. Of course, we cannot change the marking of the mouth, but we can change the lines about it. No mouth, no matter how beautiful its contour, is attractive if it pulls down or remains immovable in tight, straight lines
 The mouth is the most mobile of all our features. It Is claimed that those who talk, sing and laugh ire
