MARRIAGE AND ITS MEANING
Happiness Only an Incident, Its Real
Purpose Is Protection Of Fam.
lily Idea.

1.-THE individualist believes that hap
piness is the purpose of marriage"
writes Margaret Deland.
"Tbe purpose of marriage is the pro-
lection Of the family idea. Happiness
and marriage may go together; God
send they do! But If the incident of
happiness is lost, duty remains; the
obligation of contract remains; mar
riage remains-it remains, even though
for profoundly righteous reasons the
principals have seen fit to separate by
the width of the world.
wharfage is civilizations method OF
remaining civilized. 1t Is deep with
the elemental human pulses of life for
generations which are to come; 1t Is
solemn with its opportunities of spirit
rlal insight through suffering; 1t Is
dreadful with its sense of response
bllity for the ideal of permanence
which makes us men and women and
not beasts; an ideal which we are to
hand on, like n torch, from heart to
heart. from soul to soul!

covers.

Analysis at the Rensselaer, Poly
technic institute at Troy, N. Y. Of
dust collected by vacuum cleaner
shows that most household dust IL fun
from fabrics. What 1t was formed
of Is reported to Science by II. II.
Rees. There was human hair and
other hair probably derived from soft
hats. There were wool and cotton
fibers from clothing, sand from the
mud tracked In on shoes and the
gradual pulverizing of the floor: wings
from dead flies and paper from book
leaves; lime, probably from the plas-
ter of the walls; iron from the nails
Of shoes, carbon from coal smoke, salt
from perspiration.
One grain of the dust was shaken
with sterile water and $4,000 bacteria
were found in it. Many colon bacilli
were separated. These came from
coughing, sneezing and possibly ex-
pectoration, and were held by the dust.
The little rolls of dust that accumu-
late under beds and in the corners Of
ill-kept rooms are composed largely Of
fluff worn off clothes, blankets and car
pets. The Popular Science Monthly
had bit Of this dust placed under a
microscope with reflected light and
photographed. On this 1t comments
that we speak correctly Of clothes be-
ing sworn" and that we might also
speak of wearing" sheets and other
bedclothes, because the flbers are
worn away in much the same manner
as carpenter wears away the sur
face of wood when he sandpapers It.
Drafts and other currents of air watt
these fbers to and fro until they col
lect in small clusters Of fluff. The bits
attract others and soon the aerial flOt-
sam is collected into little rolls Of
| dust.

We might have dined better and
more cheaply elsewhere. But there
was an air of vanished splendor,
of faded magnificenqs. about the place,
which, in the capital of a warning ma
tion appealed to both Of us, writes
James n. Han in on article on war
time conditions in Paris Ia the Allan
tic. Every evening the tables were
laid with spotless linen and shining
silver. The wine glasses caught the
light from the tarnished chandeliers
In little points of color. At the din
ner hour, half-dozen ancient serving
men silently took their places about
the room. There was not. a sound TO
be heard except the occasional far-oft
honk Of motor or the subdued clat-
ter Of dishes from the kitchens. The
serving men, even the tables and the
empty chairs, seemed to be listening,
to be waiting for the guests who never
came. Rarely were there more than
a dozen diners out during the course
of an evening. There was something
mysterious in these elaborate prepare
tons, and something rather fine about
them as well; but one thought, not
without a touch Of sadness, of the old
days when there had been laughter
and lights and music, sparkling wines
ana brilliant talk, and how those mer-
rymakers had gone, many Of them,
long ago to the wars.

In making tea care should be taken
10 have the tea pot hot. Scald it out
with hot water before putting in the
dry leaves. The water poured on the
leaves should be freshly boiled and the
big tea kettle which stands on the
stove all day and is filled at irregular
intervals does not furnish the best wa
ter for the purpose.
Get a small enameled-ware kettle,
holding about a quart of water. Pour
the water on the tea, which should not
steep over three minutes. Then you
will have a brew which is not only
very much better in flavor. but is much
more wholesome than that made In the
ordinary careless fashion.
