Newark following the Chicago and

that he may have to encroach some on

FIREMEN NEED HORSES

Keyport, Jan. 12.-If the team of
horses is purchased for the boroughs S
use can be kept at the local rooms of
the Hook and Ladder Company, No. l,
the horses will provide the most avail
able to the company in case of fire.
Heretofore the truck has been pulled
to fires by members of the company
if it was not possible to procure horses,
and horses being on the premises and
available especially at night will prove
valuable help to the members of the
company.
1t has not been decided as yet
whether the team will be furnished,
but a committee is at work and will
make full report at the next meet
ing Of the borough council.

evangelist, John Wesley. married
widow by the name Of Vizelle This
marriage was very unhappy one,
Whatever good qualities this Mrs.
Wesley may have had were buried and
swallowed up in the fereest and most
absurd passion of jealousy. One OF
his bi0graphers says Had he
searched the whole kingdom, he could
hardly have found a woman more un-
suitable to him in all important re-
speets" After making her husband as
uncomfortable as possible for twenty
years, by opening his letters, and put
ting his papers into the hands of his
enemies, in the vain hope of blasting
his character, and even sometimes lay
ing violent hands on him, Mrs. Wes-
ley, at length, left home, leaving word
that she never intended to return. The
unhappy husband simply states the
fact in his journal, saying 81 know
not the cause. did not forsake her,
! did not dismiss her, | will not recall
her."
The subject of unhappy marriages
has claimed the attention of many
writer's. Witherspoon says that the
number Of unhappy marriages is
greatly oyerestimated; and that we do
but deceive ourselves when we sun
pose others unhappy because we
should be so if placed in their circum-
stances. This remark is entitled to
some consideration. For we can not
but conclude that society has some
thing in itself eminently agreeable to
human nature, when we find its pleas
ures so great that even i'll choice of a
companion for life can hardly overbal-
ance them. While we commiserate
such persons that rail out against
matrimony, they should be informed
that they are neither to wonder or re-
pine that contract of marriage based
on such principles has ended in disap-
pointment.

FRANK HOYT GAILOR is
NOW A BRITISH OFFICER

Frank Hoyt Gailor, son of Bishop
Thos. F. Galior, has been commission
ed as an officer of artillery in the
British army says the Commercial
Appeal of March 81.
Bishop Gailor received a cablegram
from his son last night, in which he
stated that he had accepted the COM
mission, with the privilege Of retain
ing his American citizenship. He re-
fused similar offer month ago be-
cause he was required to renounce his
citizenship at home,
The commission was granted him as
a graduate of Oxford, where he stud
led as one of the Rhodes scholars.
Frank Gailor at the outbreak of the
war was one of the agents of the
American Relief Commission in Bel
GUM, and afteYward served as an am
bulance driver in France in the terrain
around Verdun.
Mr.. Gailor cabled his father about a
month ago that he proposed enlisting
as private of artillery in the French
army, as, although he could have a
commission in the British army, he
would have to give up his American
citizenship.

Erasmus said: "Love that has moth
ing but beauty to keen it in health is
short lived, and apt to have ague fits. :"
In other cases there is a total dissim-
ilarity of taste, habit, sentiment, and
even principle. What possible chance
of permanent connubial happiness is
there for husband and wife when one
loves the ballroom and the other loves
the house of God or when one is
ever seeking fashionable society, and
the other loves the quiet of home :?
when one loves children, and the other
"despises brats"? "How can two
walk together except They're agreed 2"
"Be We not unequalIy yoked together
with unbelievers." Some points Of dis
similarity do not impair the happiness
of marriage; but where the substan-
tial elements of character are diverse,
there can not be connubial bliss. Utter
unsuitableness is a sure foundation
for matrimonial misery. 1t is utterly
impossible for any husband and wife
SO unequally yoked together to be
happy: their very love will torment
them.
Many unhappy marriages are
brought about either by rashness, by
refusing good counsel, by marrying to
please some third party, by being ac-
tuated by wrong motives, by being
moved by senseless impulses and fan
cies, or by failing to look to God in
humble supplication for guidance. The
scriptures well say: "A prudent wife
is from the Lord. How many look
anywhere or everywhere else but to

often alleged, that some marriages are
very unhappy, and that the parties
are very miserable. 1t would be worse
than idle to deny that some married
people are extremely unhappy on ac-
count of their matrimonial relation.
But does not candor require the adj
mission that many unmarried per
sons are extremely unhappy? With
a few exceptions, am persuaded, the
majority of instances of unhappy
matrimonial relations have been form
ed from sinister motive-often the
passion of lust, and not the passion of
love, which is the only true and proper
basis of the marital relation. When
this relation is proposed for the pur-
pose of securing a fortune, some fam
lily distinction, or the qualification Of
lustful passion: the person married is
taken as means to an unworthy end.
The object is to make an acquisition
of name, or money, or qualification of
sensual lust. Some in the choice of a
wife regard only personal beauty.
That beauty is a desirable quality, no
man of sense or taste will deny. But
that, in value, beauty is not compar-
able to intelligence, industry, truthful
ness, piety, or any of the virtues, is
clear to all except the silly. Let it be
remembered that as some very pretty
roses have thorns so some very beau
tiful women have very bad DISPOSE
tons. Beauty is a flower that fades,
and so that which was loved vanishes
away. You need not be surprised that
such marriages result in unhappiness.

THE yields of this crop are enor-

pounds of beans in the hull were har-
vested per acre at the Mcneil branch
station, and it has been no trouble to
make as much as 5000 pounds to the
acre. The harvesting is not expensive
as a good hand can pick from 500 to
600 pounds day and the usual rate
of pay is about Is cents hundred.
This crop will mature in the ex-
IRENE northern part of Mississippi.
The beans should be planted after the

April. The early speckle Osceola or

though he be strong and vigorous,
needs sympathy and encouragement.
When he has spent the day in vigor-
Gus mental effort, or in exhausting

difficulties of business and enduring
the asperities Of malignant persons:
how consoling to him to know that
there is one place-his own fireside,
and one sanctuary-the heart of his
own faithful wife, where all is calm,
and kind and lovely. Every virtuous
husband, who has yirtuous wife, has
often returned home, pressed down,
almost beyond endurance, with cares
and anxieties: yet, in little while,
the fond and loving caresses OF his
devoted wife, and the prattle of the
little 'tots" have made him blithe and
treasured him before he was called
again to buffet the storm of siren
uous life. Thus, while wives need the
care and caresses of their husbands,
they are invaluable help meets. God
said: 1T is not good that the man
should be alone; / will make him a

MANY ways the husband and wife help

Socrates was renowned Athenian
philosopher. But he used his philo-
sophical acumen to little advantage
when he wooed and won in marriage
the hand of Xantippe. From accounts
given of her, she was typical terma-
giant. Many of the stories about her
are probably false; for in ancient
Athens gossip was cultivated to the
perfection of a fine art, and the point,
not the truth, Of the story was the
chief consideration. Xantippe had
probably no little acerbities of tenn
per, and these must have been aggra-
waited by the peculiarities of her
spouse, especially his Indifference to
the commonplace duty laid on the
head Of the household to provide a
suitable maintenance. Her reproach-
es for his dereliction in regard to his
duty in this particular, Socrates re-
ceived with such good humored indif-
ference that one can not be amazed
that she sometimes resorted to wea-
pons others than her tongue. On one
occasion, she is said to have finished
up a TRADE by sousing the philoso-
pher. AS he went dripping from the
scene, he remarked. when Xantippe
thunders she waters. This was
enough to convince her that she was
unequal to his good humored indif-
ference.

dozens Of effective arrangements Of

mat Of very clean yellow corn husks
upon the table cloth. Choose very large
ears Of yellow corn and arrange them
