For any one person or couple to

lish the truth that marriage Is or

assumed that human nature Is I'M

habits and health, and that parental
influences, home training, politics.
religion, etc, produce exactly the
some reaction on every human
being who grows to maturity.

built on sand, and, therefore, no
ono person or no collection OF per-

THE NEW WORLD. BY Frank Conner
ford. New York; ID. Appleton a Co.
"The New World opens with
frank statement of the problem OF
social unrest now facing the entire
world and Mr.. Comerford, who made
Il the subject of searching study in
Europe from Ireland to the Boil
shevik front, has seized upon the
mind OF the laboring classes as the
answer to today's problems.
Commencing with sketch of
Russian historical background and
of the condition OF the country prior
to the outbreak OF the world war.
he clearly delineates the conditions
in that stricken country. He de-
picts the gradual rise OF tho Boil
shevistlc spirit, the growth of Soviet
power. and points out the result OF
this domination. In this no eN-
poses the iniqulties OF the Soviet
machine and clearly indicates tho
faIlscy OF the Soviet idea of living.
From Russia Mr.. Comerford pro-
ceeds 20 n discussion OF Bolshevism
in the United states, shows the dan
ger OF this influence. and Gets forth
the result Of strikes melted by Boil
shcvists in Seattle and Winnipeg.
The solution % tho problem Of capi-
tai q&ainst labor, 90 he sees ~. 10
then set forth In concrete terms.

. she went to stephanie's room and
found II empty.
But through the open window
sunshine streAmed. and presently
she saw the rsd-cloAkod figure
down by the rivers edge: heard tho
girls sweet laughter float out
among the willo~s-enchAntins,
gay, care-free laughter, where she
had waded out into the shallow
rapids and now stood knee-deep,
challenging her lover to follow her
II he dared.
Then Helen saw bis white flsn-
nelled figure wading boldly out
through the water in pursuit; saw
the slim, red-cloaked girl turn TO
flee; went closer to the window and
stood with the written message In
her hand, watching the distant scene
through eyes dimmed with those IL
logical tears which women shed
when there is nothing else in the
world to do.
II was plain that they thought
themselves all alone in the world,
with the sunrise and the blue
mountains as an agreeable setting.
created as a background for them
alone.
Twice the girl narrowly escaped
capture; above the rush OF the riv-
err their gales OF laughter came back
on the summer wind. Suddenly she
slipped, fell with a cry into deep
er pool, and was caught up by him
and carried shoreward, with her
white arms around his neck and
her lips resting on his.
And as the tall young lover, drip
ping from head to foot, came striding
across the lawn with all he loved on
earth laughing up at him in his
arms, the girl at the window turn
ed away and went into her own room
with the written message In her
hand.
And there, seated on the edge OF
her bed, she read IL over and over,
crying. uncertain. wondering wheth-
er she might not withhold it for
few hours more.
Because life is very wonderful,
and youth more wonderful still. And
there is always time to talk OF life
and death when daylight dies and
the last laugh is spent-when
shadow fall, and blossoms close, and
birds grow silent among the
branches
She did not knew why she was
dead man.
She looked out through drawn
blinds at the sunshine, not know
ing why she wept not knowing
what to do.
Then, from the hall came Step
hanie's ecstatic voice:
Helen! Wake up. darling, and
come down, Because Jim and /
have the most wonderful thing in
the world to tell you"
But on the paper in her lap was
written something more wonderful
still. For there is nothing more
wonderful than that beginning of
everything which Is called the end.
THE END.

MARRIAGE SHOULD he
DREAM COME TRUE

Married life ought to be the
greatest success in life, for is II not
the girls dream from childhood
when she is playing with her dolls?
Does she not dream OF the days to
come when she will have a happy
home and real dolls with which to
play.
And does not the boy in his child
hood days when working around the
house with his saw and hammer
dream of the days to come when
he can work around his own home
and do the little things that most
all men like to do.
And these dreams planted at
childhood grow eacn day as the
child grows. until the time comes
when these dreams are about to be-
come a reality.
Do you know, to my mind, what
of all things will make these
dreams which were sweet and pure
at childhood, continue to on through
life to be sweeter and purer with
each coming year? The one word
love. Because when you have that
you have everything in life worth
while. And without that II is USE
less to start out on a honeymoon.
Just as useless as It is for a great
ship to start across the ocean with
out a rudder. You will never get
anywhere. You might drift along
for years but the end will most al
ways be on the rocks. You might
try and try, but, like the good ship,
you will be without a rudder.
II we could only think before
marriage instead of having a lot of
thinking to do after marriage, what
a different world this would be!
If we would only test our love be-
fore marriage and be sure 1t Is OF
the lasting kind, then, too. what
difference II would make!
We see the movies crowded each
day. Do we go there to see life
as it is7 No. 1 think IL IL to, see
life as we all would like to havb II.
There we see love fought out with
all it's hardships, but love always
wins in the end.

But within the house there was
another Glamour which they did not

telephone. They did not hear 1t,
