Love and MARRIAGE.

"First love is very apt not to be the
lasting love-" said DR.. Antoinette Koni-
kow, speaking at the Boston School of
Social Science.
young lovers try to excuse all the
faults Of the loved one because they
are not in love with the individual, but
with love. Hence they may not choose
the partner with whom they will find
their happiness in later years. Many a
man and woman is glad by middle age
that the first love was frustrated.
Marriage should be based on love
alone or 1t is immoral, and some change
is necessary If marriage is to be saved
from degradation. Real love always
makes people better. Romantic love Is
the source of all the best things In life
the foundation of all the arts. And
individual happiness makes up the hap
piness Of the race."-Boston Post.

The PYamY hippopotamus.

One of the animals least known to
the outside world is the pygmy hippo
potamus of West Africa.
This animal is just what its name
implies, a pygmy hippopotamus. 1t is
much smaller than the common hippo
potamus, being no larger than an ordi-
nary or fair sized hog. 1t differs some
what from the common hippo In the
character of its teeth, and instead Of
spending its time in the rivers and
lakes in large herds 1t wanders about
through the jungles singly or In pairs,
much after the manner of swine In
search of mast.-London Spectator.

A Night in
the Mountains.

The Pause in the Days Occupation"
had come to the weary, happy noun
taineers. Sitting in front of the little
log, lean-to with the fire cracking
lazily, soothingly, their conversation
had died away. and each one was oc-
cupied with his own thoughts and
musings.
The moon lit up the small scrub pines
and rocks near the shack. Below in
the valley the lights of a gay summer
resort twinkled and a lake shown white
among the dark pines. The mountains
beyond rose to a sea of light. Misty
peaks, stretching out endlessIy. mys-
teriously.
Above was the most impressive sky
we had ever seen. All the stars had
come out it seemed, and the longer we
looked the more stars we saw. But,
when we consider the countless worlds
they represented, the problem grew too
big and we turned our eyes back to the

upon the old and dear comrades, reveal
ing something of a new peace, con-
tentment and calm in their faces.
From the valley below, a faint note
was boren up with the rushing winds.
1t was the whistle of an express train,
which went tearing thru the night,
leaving a stream of glowing sparks be-
hind it. A faint smile went round the
crowd. A log IN the ire slipped. Some
one rose to replace 1.-THE spell was
broken. Everyone began to talk; good
nights were said, final plans for the
morrow arranged and we all stretched
out on the pine boughs and crew our
blankets around US. A few whispers.

silence, except for the fire and wind.
The spirit of the mountains again held

allies and ourselves, not to mantl1n the
neutrals. We are short millions of
gallons of gasoline, and gasoline is one
Of the essentials for the successful con-
duct OF cur war. Every joy-ride, every
unnecessary trip takes from the COM
mon stock and thereby has its influence
on the pr0longing Of war. Though you
can pay SIS gallon you have no right to
consume even pint beyond your re-
quiremenis. Your money does hot in
crease the supply.
So it goes along the whole line.
Money has lost its comparative value
for the time being. 1t is the size Of
the stock that we have an hand or can
obtain which is the important factor
TIE rich man has no right to draw upon
tins stock because he has the money TO
pay for it.

crime but will swiftly meet with its

as the beggsr will be put upon a strict

Germany have reached that point. No
gasoline at all can be secured for new
cars in Engllnd. The allowance for
old cars is strictly limited.
Do the sutomobllists of America want
to be put uvon All allowance? If not
let them cut down their wastefulness
at once. The motor car as a business
| convenience and for reasonable family
use may be tolerated for a long time.
