FOOLISH ADYICE.

THE time for TO marry Is when he Is in
love with girl and broke"
such - the advice accredited TO Thomas c. Russell
yyho has made spectacular success OF his life.
Russell married when he was broke and IN Ave
years bought and moved into a residence that cost
him 500, 600.
Marrying when broke may have helred him on the
road TO fortune but general experience hardly coin
cides with this as the usual result
There is always a question OF how much love
man has for woman when he asks her TO share
a pennUess present and prospective future.
Russell won out because he had an inventive mind
and hard courage to overcome obstacles His fac
tories now employ hundreds OF men. busy making
the creation Of his brain.
For sentuses marriage may offer the balance that
permits them 10 turn TO their own financial gain
the products Of their minds For ordinary youths,
pennness marriages generally end in either the d.
vorce courts or tails.

World LOSING RELIGION?

Chief Justice Taft in issuing a call for a general
conference at Detroit Oct. Of the Unitarian ana
other liberal churches OF which he is the head says
that there is destructive indifference to religion
and the church which threatens the moral fiber Of

the times when he indicates indifference to re-

which denotes the spiritual viewpoint OF

factors to be regarded.

have several rooms painted and
papered. The gent has been awful

work through last night, and If
nothing happens he ought to finish
