Happiness Only Secondary Matter
 in Welded Life

Chicago, Nov. 4.-Happiness of man and woman is only a secondary affair in marriage, the prime pur- pose of which is to produce robust children, Professor William J. Dur ant of Columbia university said in lecture at the Sinai Social Gen. ter here last night. Where there are no children there is no mar riage," he added.
 Free love is impossible, the pro lessor said, because conquests of a man are praised by other men, Out if woman engages in one free love affair she is held in ridlculc and belittled by the associates.
 Most men now marry after they have become incapable of love- the professor continued, ''and then comes your divorce" Courts say that divorccs arc due to cruelty, drunkenness and half dozen other things, but they are all wrong. The three funda- mental reasons for divorces are:
 1. The nature vanity of both sexes.
 ''2. Psychological incompatibillty.
 "3. Lack of children"

Most of the initial selling was based on q preyalrnt opinion that something of set back would be natural after the sudden big advance Besides, the hog market had weakened. and weather conditions were more favorable for work in the fields and for maturing the crop.
 Increased rural offerings made oats relatively weaker than corn.
 Provisions averaged lower chiefly ns T result of down turns in the hog market.

The world is big and there are many people in it, yet l believe l am the only woman that ever sui fered, violence at the hands of her husband over such trivial thing as the age of Lillian Russell. (Not to say that Miss Russell's age is trivial to her, and all women, of whatever years, will understand that.)
 Now I laugh when l remember how a little a thing it was that CrAtten- den ranted about, and how he came close to killing my love for hlm. It was so ridiculous.
 The Boyds called on us one eve ming, and, making an effort, for he was still mounted on his high horse, Crittenden appeared smiling when he entered the living room. We talked at length of our youth and what q snlendid thing that we had it. None of us was thirty. My, we were young then, sure enough?
 "Women can stay young If they try," Crittenden remarked. Its all in the way they take care of them selves. Lillian Russell, for instance, is an example. Sixty years old and looks thirty"
 "She is sumner, all right, agreed Chester Boyd.
 "But she's not sixty yet by several years." I said.
 "What! Certainly she is,' insisted Crittenden.
 ooh, mo-" I laughed. "You are thinking of someone else. Liltlan Russell is barely fifty"
