NEW YOP.K,'l*‘cb 11.-According to

, '~.:' the census of 1890, there was A mar- f‘ ried population in the United States

of 22,447,769, with an annual average of 33,197 divorces. That is, there was one divorce to every 676 of mar-

,,, _ tied population. According to the cen- t., sus of 1900, says the Forum, then: was

a married population of 27,770,101,

4, with an annual divorce record of 55,- j~ 501, or one divorce to every 500 of '5 -» married population. Between 1887

and 1906 the record of divorces reach- ed the amazing total of 9-15.625. Near-

= ly a million American marriages went.

to pieces in twenty years. That ia,

’* . disruption-overtook 47,281 marriag-

es a year, 8,940 a, month-more than

H f 130 a day. '

No one section of the country pro-

. duces a much larger divorce crop

than another. Louisiana, with its

large Catholic population; Mormon

I - Utah and Unitarian Massachusetts

_ furnish similar figures. Broadly

ii" ` speaking, the divorce raterises as

we cross the map westward, but on the whole the rate il fairly even throughout the country. The rate in slightly larger in the cities than in the country, but divorce is by no _means a city problem.

, . It il astonishing to find that div- _ orce laws, s ringent or liberal, affect l" ,_ in the rate very slightly, New Hamp- i`. i ' shire. Utah and South Dakota show i . . almost exactly' the same proportion ‘Z I of divorces per population and per ,- . marriages. New York. with its one i`..f’;‘ cause for divorce. and New Jersey, Rt v'»°‘~_; I, ' with its half dozen causes, show a

‘v

';l- l;!`f$-pi-1, ii' ra't_e nearly identical. _

f I lhe solution of our divorce pro-

' blem lies in securing a better rela-

tion betwcen men and women in ev- ery deprirtmcnt of life. It is an ano-

. maly in this llupublic that there

`{ Pl ' should be any distinction on account

, f - of sex. It is absurd that women

_ should receive lower wages Umm men

for. equal work performed or equal fill- , _ service given. lt is unfair to deny -li l` women their share in public house- ' ; keeping. It is unjust to tax them and

if §; » at the same time refuse tbcm citizen- :if ‘ ‘ lhip. _

7 l American \vf.-men are all well crin- . - ._; » cated, as intcllicent, ns moral, as

if conscientious and, within their op-

portunities as efficient as American

' ’ men. Once this in fully recognized,

I-IINTS ON PUBLIC WORSHIP.

To the Editor of The Guardian:

Dear Sir:-There are not 5 few per-

sons who appreciate your valuable paper, among other things, for its weekly sermons. The following little homily in verse is neither theological nor Shakespearian, but it is emin- ently practical, and I am sure that it also will. be appreciated both by preachers and by all true worship- pers. It is entitled Hints on Public Worship:

“Bear with me while i say thc crime

is great

Of those who practice coming in too

late;

As if Go(l’s service were by far too

long,

And _none rejoiced to praise Him in

a song.

Shall the doors rattle, hats and hon-

nets move

To show how you the service disap-

' provei’ ‘

Disturbing those who come to serve

the Lord,

And even while they listen to His

word.

If you complain you have too far to

Ctim0,

Set out ii little sooner from your

bomc;

But those who live hard by have no

excuse _

ldxcept in idlencss, or sleep, or use.~

A little less indulgence in the bed* A little more contrivancc in the

bead-~

-\. little more devotion in the -mind- \Vould quite prevent your being so

behind. I

O! wbnt n pleasing sight it would af-

ford, '

lf all were waiting for to praise the

Lord, I

Each seat were occupied, and all the

throng

Ready to join in one harmonious

song.

My bi'cthi'en, this might mostly be

the case

if we were lively in the Christian

race, '

Then every.hindrance would be laid

aside,

'l`o sec and hcnr of Jesus crucified."

(Auon.)

LONDON, Feb. 11-Mrs. Asqulth’s

notable epigram uttered when giving testimony in the West slander case has made her almost as famous as her husband, the Prime Minister, who in his reply to a question in the House of Commons uttered the not yet forgotten “\\'ait and see."

"Extra\`B;:i1ncc." she said, "is usu-

ally a passport to society."

Now a writer in The ’I‘at_tlei' takes

up the matter, 'anil tells what the life of the modern society woman means and how costly is her life, if she means to keep "in the swim."

"The demands of the smart set,”

says the writer, “need a pin-se of Cruesixs, the powers of a quick change artist and the juggling abili- ties of a Chaiicellor of the Exche- qiier.

"For a society \voman’s life is viv-

id and vitrions;thei'e are forty-eight hours to her day, and she goes to Paris to fit a frock and to New York for a new face treatment. The London season is a costly campaign, and to carry on, say, from the mid- dle of May to Gooilwood a woman in the swim must have at least sixl sumptuous evening gowns, with a couple of 'little' frocks to ait as ac- cessories,`and of course the usuiil lot of Ascot and garden party gowns, with a correct gc:-up for fridge, days on the river, short journeys and motoring. _-ind ull this witho-.it men- tion of the court gown and train which every year cr two are demand- ed by her position.

"'l‘ncn, with August, come yachting

trips and Cowes, followed by Aix Homburg or Marienbad. September brings Scotland, with the fashion- able race mcctingsdatcr on. Ncxt runs over to Paris, while November has the country house parties and shoots. Then London again, with its (fhristrnas, followed by visits to the Riviera cr Egypt.

“As for the price paid for pet

dogs--really a veil must be drawn over these piwiceetlings. Three or hve hundred pounds is often given, and some weird specimens are priced at $1,000."

THE E'l’Hl(.‘S‘ OF PIPE SMOKING.

From the vantage-ground of New

“Men in this country have their

code of social right miil`wi‘<1xig, and it finds ri curious expression in rules as to 'pipe-srnolciiig. l shall uever forget how, soon after my arrival, l sought out Fifth Avenie and inno- cently smoked my pipe for liulf the lt-n_i;tb of it.

"I thought probably pipes were

taboo for oiitsiiie dsc, so when I sit down in thc New ,York Atlilcticilub to write a few letters I withdrew my briar from its hiding place, only to iiiid that nt‘itlie1‘ members nor guests were allowed to use pipts. The Anicij- ican man began to allpt-ai' in a new light. 1-Ie had frowned on my gaucli- eric for sinning on Fifth' Avenue, and now he warns nic, with delicacy, too, that I am ii Social criminal if-in a mdn's club, remcmbcr-l d-.src to foul the air with thc fumes from an Old briar.

PEKIN, Feb. 10-Indications are

not wanting ` these days of the growing iiaaéixity tin-oughout the country not only to the granting of iforeign railway concessions, but even to* obtaining money from abroad for the construction of those lines which the Government is anxious to build. The ‘student f.-ody of the province of L-linkiang has issued what amounts to a proclamation practically threaten- ing the government with war should further loans be arranged with for- eigners. Some time ago a man from the province of Hupeh appeared in the courtyard of the Bureau of L‘-om- munications and threatened, in Chin- ese fashion, to kill himself on the spot unless a railway concession were given him. The ruse was adopted of telling him to go back' to his peo- ple and raise the necessary money bv su!.»scrip,tionu-rin impossible task- and the fellow went away rejoicing, and declaring that he had obtained his concession.

Such incidents, and constant

threats upon the lives of ministers. are the only inflictatious of the general hostility to- what is Consid- ered the aggression of foreigners up- on the intci:rity of (`h|na, the meni- bers of the Government appear to be seriously hampered, though in the opinion of the dipiomatists here, a strong policy would dissiuate or crush all absurd hostility.

It is the declared policy of the Gov-»

ernment to proceed with thi- biiildiiig of ri>.il\vn_vs, bell;-vioir tilt-iii io be es- sential to the very object wbicli the pcople desire--the strcnrzflicning of Lfbina. And the i;o\'<=rim.ciit is aware. from frcqiient experience, that surfi- cient money to construct any given line is only obtainable within the country with the igrvafcst difliciilty anfl at za. liigbcr rate of ini.orc_sf. than it van bc procured from abroad.

ese of the wealthy class have no con- fidence in (Thincsc ndinini,sf.i'atioii, while foreigners are in a Dvsiillfln £1? all times to press for the interest ani repayments on loans.

that at the proper time the Govern- ment will be pleased to rdccive a little pressure from them with i-ci:nrd to the Hukunn and other loans nov: in nbeyance, as this prtssurc can be made by the Governnvcnt an cxcusc inf compliance with ffneign demands.

Sometimes it may be difiiciilt to get a boy to go into the field to work or to take a load of produce to market with a poor scrub team with dilapidated harness and vvngori. He has a high sense of pride and his feelings ar: injured when caught in possession of such an outfit. l-Ie feels that if he is driving n \~.'or'tl|le.»;s team people will take him to be it worthless boy.

The boy will put up with some things going wrong, but when everything goes wrong he loses heart and confidtnce in the beauties of the “simple coun- iry life."'

but he certainly is doing some hard thinhing along that line.

The man who can pcssibly help it

-and most of them can--is tloing himself and his boy a liistiiig inlurv by compelling thc boy to wirk with n dilapidated team and tools. A, poor team; to begin with, is a poorl investment; to use it with poor bar-f ness and tools is poor economy, andl to compel a normal, developing boyi to work with the "contraption"j shows a lack of human and horse sense. g

The quality, and offrn the nmoimt.,i

of work a person docs depend-’ upon the personal interest the wurlrci' takes in his work. Any work, to be, interesting, must prcsciit points of' attraction. A boy is not n man norl it philosopher. \\‘e do not wish him to bc. He can not see thc scieiitiiic or economic principles back of thc bare ribs of a lbalky horse or be- neath the bed of a hrokcndown wag- iron which has always been a strang- cr to paint and i'cpaii',-3. llut he al- ways cun see good thin,‘:S in n team of trim, spirited 'horses in bright, harness hitched to a new wnggon oi" new mowing machine.

With ‘such an outfit it is not a question of _setting the boy to stay-I with the work, but to devise means of getting him to ever leave it. 'l`hi=r.i are strong points of attraction. This, is -reason cnougli for him. ln~§tinct,l if not sense, will do the rest.

The boy that is old cnougzb to do farm work is full of vitality april growiiig pride. lic likes to s .2 anfl work with things that move and shine as they move. l-le is willing to perform if he is surrounded by per- forming tliings. High performance and attractive style are his ideal, He \\'ill wade through fire, forest and flood to realize his ideal if you will let him. _ '

The horse hi-is long been the com-

panion of man. It stands on the top steps of intelligence and strength with the lowir animals. We have in- herited the consciousness of its nn- hility and usefulness. The infant child seems to know that the horse is it worthy and powerful friend. The bnhy is happy on fathers lap with the ends of the lines in his hand, It docs not take him long to are through thc delusion of holding only the dangling cnds, and he soon wants the whole reins or noue~and usually gets them. `

The older boy is like thc younger
