Is now IN operation. S.
Sir Samuel is an octogenarian
bachelor pastoralist who lives at
North Yanco In this state, New South
Wales. TO him Australia owes much.
He was : pioneer trfigationist and
his sheep ranch 1t North Yauco Is one
pfsths finest on this continent. a few
yssrs ESQ HE sheer properties fotalled
1.600.o00 screb and the number cf
sheep shofn on them was q million
yearly. The wool often reached more
than 81. SOC, 900 in value. He came to
Australia so years ago from his
native town in The north of ireland
and is q member Of the Legislative
Council, the upper honse Of the New
South Wales Parliament Prior TO
the war he made important contribu-
tions to patriotic funds, including one
for equipping troops for the Boer

in July are eligible. The deed pro-
yides for other patriotic Australians

scheme.
Sir Samuel stipulates that the
children of the men insured shall

vision has excited favorable comment
in Australia {. ~.

That the increase in the cost OF

honor and faith between husband and
wife 20 make an ideal marriage, and
that does not exist where either one
has q past that has had to be for
given, and habits and ideals that have
had to be. changed.
After all, the same argument ap-
plies to the man who thinks of mar.
ryfng girl TO reform her that does
to the girl who marries man to re.
form him. Why do anything so use
less az well as dangerous? Why
pick cut specked peach when the

not choose the kind OF wife or hus-
band you want, TO start with, instead
Of taking an inferior article on the
chance that you may possibly be able
to alter. it, over into something OF
which you approve?
Matrimony has enough chances Of
misery in it without turning It into a
reform school, and while It may be
good for our souls to have our faults
corrected and our weaknesses elimfn.
ated and our habits changed, it Is an
almighty unpleasant process for the
poor victim who is being raised up
to the. higher life. -. 81
Finally, this cold, hard fact is rec.
ommend to the consideration of the
foolhardy who are marrying life part
ners to make them better--it is not
on records that the inmates of refor.
natories entertain any very ardent
affection for those who are attempt.
ing to reform them.
