Have you ever tried for hours or
perhaps days, to cheer up some one
who is unhappy and then had the re-
alization suddenly come to you that
they are enjoying their unhappiness.
that the more miserable they succeed
in making themselves feel the more
happier they are. There are a great
number of such people in the world.
They will read all they can find about
hard times and the poor conditions in
the country; they will talk to all the
pessimists they come across and be
very happy. But let any cheerful per-
son try and show them their mistake
and they will not be convinced They
enjoy being unhappy. Otherwise they
could not exist. For II they did not en-
Joy 1t and were truly miserable in their
unhappiness 1t would soon affect their
health. But these people, In spite of
their constant avowals of i'll health
usually seem quite healthy and are
long lived. 50 when you run across
such people the best way TO make them
happy is to let them wallow about in
their misery. They are more at home
there. Put them in an atmosphere Of
what you would consider happiness and
they would lie lost like fish out OF
water.

whom God has chosen for salvation,
and while we understand this, and
keep il before us, we shall not be puff

censorious towards others, though we
bear in mind ever so much that the
gate of heaven is narrow, and few

Why is il that at the present stage
of our evolution, marriage seems to be
proving such disappointment to so
many peope2 Some of them fit about
and try it any number of times and die
with the idea that the institution of
marriage is failure. II experience
means anything they should know per-
haps but unless the knowledge gained
from experience is applied it does us
no good
However, it is not the institution Of
marriage that is failing. 1t is the
people who are expecting the impossi-
bic iom it, They are expecting that
first glow OF the honey moon to last
through life which is not natural and
certainly not conductive to common
sense living. Nevertheless they are
expecting such to be the case. Conse-
quently, when one of them is not
thrilled to the Nth degree by the APP
pearances Of his chosen mate he imme-
diately concludes, "Ha, this woman Tor
man as the case may be- is not my aiii-
nifty. To touch her hand no longer
sends the blood through my veins like
liquid fire. | do not love her, hence
must not live with her and since 1t is
not gooC for man to live alone must
hastily look elsewhere. Perhaps he is
not conscious of following this particu
lar line of reasoning, but he arrives at
the same conclusion.
To any sensible married couple who
have weathered together the matri.
monisl storms Which years are bound
to bring, this line OF reasoning must
seem very childish. They will tell you
that while the joys Of the honey moon
we're very thrilling and very sweet to
remember they cannot be compared
with the loving companionship of later
life. 1t Is true there is period of ad.
justment which is trying and often diff.
fcut to engineer, but unless they are
! like chlld who soon tires Of new
try, they viii try to overcome the dan
gers of this period and they will come
through safely.
That is the trouble with our young
married couples of today. They crave
constant excitement and change. When
the excitement of the Honeymoon has
worn off they do not try to adjust them
selves to the charge in their life. They
simply throw up their hands, declare
that they have made mistake and 20
searching for more excitement. Mar.
riage to them simply means one mere
diversion. When they tire OF it they
are ready for something else. And
then people ask what is wrong with
marriage. But it is not the marriage
laws we must change. 1t is the people.

Thy winds, thy wide, grey skies
Thy mists that roll and rise
Thy woods, this autumn day, that ache

And all but cry with colour That
gaunt crag
To crush To Mt the lean Of that black
bluiT
World, world cannot get thee close
enough!
Long have known glory 10 II all,
But never knew | this;
Here such a passion is
AS stretcheth me apart,-Lord, do

Thoust made the world TO beautiful

My soul Is ali but out Of me,--let fall
No burning leaf; prithee, let no bird

children to the right road that they
tread it OF their own accord rather
than through fear need not worry

Washington, d. G. September Is
The cabinet at it's meeting today de-
cided to restrict prohibition enforce
ment operations within the three
mile limit at sea except in cases
where ships beyond that limit are in
communication with shore through
their own crews and small boats.
Prohibition enforcement officialsS 1t
was said, authoritatively would be
cautioned to observe this decision
The subject of searches for con-
traband liquor beyond the three
mile limit formed the principal topic
of discussion before cabinet. Elk
animation of municipal law author
izing customs or other operations up
to the twelve mile limit were found
by the presidents advisers to be
out OF harmony. with international
law, and it was held that attempts
to carry out the municipal law pro-
visions might involve the govern
ment in endorsements with other
countries.
1t was brought out in the cabinet
discussion that in the recent case OF
the British vessel Grace and Ruby,
seized beyond the three mile limit
that court held this vessel~to have
been within American territorial
waters in effect since she was in
touch with shore by means of her
own small boats. The decision to re-
strict operations of prohibition en-
forcement officials to similar cases
beyond the three mile Limit in flu
ture, therefore, was explained as In
line with the courts action.
