Naturally, with Miss Spruce on

age Of eighty will be free Of sus-

The Marriage
Lottery

-
-, who have a desire to see the
country prosper and the
population grow, and who. at the
same time, have no objection to
swelling their own income-tax re-
turns, are now hard at work per-
fecting q plan TO conduct a mat
rimonial lottery.
II is their opinion that there
should be more marriages. In
fact, they think It should become
a custom among our people.
They believe that a great many
people would like to get married,
but have nobody In particular to
marry.
There are many lonesome
souls who are now living in
peace and the doldrums and
yearning for the excitement Of
battle.
Peace Is an insipid thing to
some people. It doesn't mean
anything. They hunger for the
sounds Of conflict. Still, many
Of these have no one to marry.
It seems q shame, or 50 the gen.
tlemen think.
They report progress. The
gigantic lottery or rattle plan Is
about to be thrust upon the pub
lie and then we shall see what
we shall see.
The idea Is, We believe, to
shake the names Of eligibles up
in a hat, perhaps a hat about the
size Of the Woolworth Building,
and draw out the unlucky num-
bers. The gent and lady drawn
simultaneously viii Jump of the
dock into the sea Of matrimony,
hand In hand. !
OF course, there WIN be COM
plications, but then there arc
complications In all marriages.
Why not! The divorce lawyers
have got to make o living the
same as the rest Of rs. ...
A Western gunman, whose
speciality Is holding up express
trains and whose table manners
extend as far as sword-swallow-
ing, will probably be drawn out
Of the box with some New Hamp-
shire Sunday school teacher. A
st. Louis bootlegger may win an
elderly spinster from Connecti-
cut who does tatting and en-
broiders wall notices. But then,
everybody has got to take q
change in this world.
All the predestined and cut
and-dried marriages don't pan
out so well either. A boy and
girl may live next door and go to
school together and be engaged
when they are eight years old.
They may grow up and be mar
ried right according to schedule
and they may be divorced two
months afterward
People don't really get to know
each other until they are mar
ied, and even then they keep
finding out new things until one
Of them gives up and shuffies off.
Education begins with marriage,
and two total strangers, one from
Arizona and the other from Della
ware, may manage to live to-
gether and give a rather faithful
imitation Of conjugal serenity.
Marriage Is a lottery anyway,
whether they make a regular lot
terry Of It or not. When a man
or a woman reaches in the pro-
posed grab-bag and pulls forth a
life mate the chances are great,
no matter when thew reach
