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

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
I
1
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.)

RECIPROCITY IN U.S. CONGRESS

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

THE E'l’Hl(.‘S‘ OF PIPE SMOKING.
From the vantage-ground of New

“Men in this country have their

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.
The cxplarniinon is tbnt_the Chin-
ese of the wealthy class have no con-
fidence in (Thincsc ndinini,sf.i'atioii,

'l`hc leprations are of the opinion
that at the proper time the Govern-
ment will be pleased to rdccive a

There is pirfiiws ii-'itliing on the

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

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
boy. He does not ever care \vli.t`iier
father is along when the team is
driven. He can drive, and no mis-
tnkc, ii he has a team fit to drive.
lie has but one thought, and his eyes
see every part and movement of the
team and equipment. His mind is
concentrated on the thing iii hand,
and he makes few mistakes. HB is
moves to suit him. He is proud of
himself and proud of his team. His
pride is just and rational. There is
sometliing in thc spirit and action of
thc horse that strikes 11 sympathetic
and harinouizing chord in his own
handling something that movcs, andl
buoyant, rebounding nature. 1
