Divonon A Haair
Divorce is developing into a habit.
Some people are even beginning to
look upon it as the inevitable corol-
lary of marriage. “Of course, I
shall expect your daughter to divorce
my sun as soon as he _ desires it,"
said it modern mother to the father
of her "daughter-in-law elect." This
is an extreme case, of course, but it
is typical of the age we live itl-
No wonder, therefore, that learned
luminanes have been for days pat-it
.cudge-ling their brains for a solution
to this distressing problem. It is to
an alteration of the law that they
,look for redress; but it is of no use
making legally right what is morally
wrong: Though the legal machinery
in existence were set in motion it
could not produce happy homes 01'
[husbands like Darbyz-
Always the same Barby my
own.
Always the same to your old
wife Joan.
Reform in the marriage laws, like
all reforms, must begin with individ-
uals. It must begin at the primal
'cause of all blundcring and misfo{-
tune, as it is of all joy and hapll'
ness-character. Great men, philoso-
phers and sages of all time, are un-
ianimous on that one point, if on no
,other. “The stars of our fortune
‘are in ourselves," said Heine, while
Schopenliatier says, "Every mol!
carries with him the reward and the
disgrace that hc deserves." “A
inan's fate is his own temper," de-
clared Disraeli; “It is itt\l10SSlb1¢."
said Enierson, “for a man to be
cheated by anyone but himself."
lt may be argued, however, that
the possession of a good chBrB0t9I‘
does not prevent one froni makinll
matriinouial tnisti-ikes; that tho “ll-
right mail not infrequently finds
himself mated to a fool or a worth-
less woman. But when one talks
about 'character one does not refer
to the moral rectituile alone, though
it is thc first essential. 'i‘lie i5l‘\\lY
developed character possesses wis-
dom, understanding, intuition. It
never permits itself to bc clouded
with the senses.
Mactcrliuck speaks - somewhere Of
people who have a "HiXtl\ H0\'|B0."
the possession of which is n safe-
guaro against disaster. li such
people-people of high ideas and de-
veloped uudcrstaiiding--choose for
their life-partners husbands and
wives who ultimately develop in-
sanity ol physical diseases, they
have no desire for divorce. 'l`hey
choose the people they really love.
ami "love is not love which alters
when it. alteration finds." Robert
I-Iicbcns in one of his hooks paints
the picture of n beautiful woman
who met with an accideiit which ren-
dered her face liideotis to behold.
'l‘lic man who worshipped her tvas
not infltienced liy this. Aillitiiiflll
uvet‘taking the person one really
loves tends to iiicirtise rather than
diminish devotion.
One feels inclined, therefore, to
ngrcc with Sir Jaine.-¢ (‘richton
llrownc, that <lii'oi'cr, is desirable ou-
ly in very few instances. The lnan
who can shut his wife up in an asy-
lum, then marry some one clsc and
livc "happy ever after," can never
have loved his wife in the first in-
stance; therefore he had no right
to marry lin".
There ntiglit be li iliinlntttioli in di-
vorce also if there were fewer plays
prcselitetl and fewer novels published
dealing with this sordid anti unsav-
oiiry subject. Most of these glorify
the heroine and present hor as a ro-
niniitic figiii',e-or, worse still, treat
the subject with levity, as in the
case of many musical comedies of
the baser sort.
“I should like you," said Wagner
to a young dramntist who read for
his approval a play dealing with an
ttnattractivc subject, “l should like
to see you turn upon the ideal
world, more important than the real
for artists like its, the same search-
ing gaze with which you have pera~
trated the inatcrial \\’ol~ld." The
more ‘we keep our gale fixed on the
ideal, thc more likely are we to ul-
timately acbieve it.-Selected,

it luis often stti'pi'ised nic why few
fai'iiio|‘s seein 'to trouble about their
fowls, says nn bliiglisli writer. S0
long_ as a few eggs are forthcoming
and immediate wantii supplied, little
notice is taken whether they pay
their way, or are just kept, because
no farm would seem complete with-
out them. ln the selection of iireeqp
nn- laying. great notice should be
taken of the position of thc land, the
iizitiirc of the soil, and the partiall-
ty that some varieties seem to have
for certain conditions which to oth-
ers would be most unsuitable.
it has long been acknowledged that
"‘=""'riv1s tvitli lilciity of'ltiiid have the
best chalice of making poultry-kcep-
in-' fi siwteess. It is here where the
stock-raiser with many acres partial-
ly occupied, the rcnf. of which can be
marie apart from fowls, stands out
as the man to make best profits from
poultry. Why so few people in this
line study the subject I ani at a loss
to know. No class of men are more
noxious to make the best nf things
than farmers; still, they seein to ne-
glect poultry terribly as a source of

We have a very select stock of
Jewelery, etc, suitable for Xmas
presents, which we will be very
pleased to show you.
We make no extra charge for en-
led properly.
iicsh and legs are yellow, and this
on the small side. 'ft is well known
was enough to aggravate a saint,
and really this alone has caused
many people to give tip the breed in
disgust.
After many years' experience with
the White Urpington, I am convinced
they stand out as one nf the very
best breeds for general purpose. They
are exceptionally hardy, admirably
suited to roam at will over the splen-
did grass land which most farmers
have at liberty, are liandsonic in ap-
pearance, and, above all, really won-
derful winter layers. The eggs fre-
quently average seven to the pound,
and, being of a nice brown color,
North of ltluglautl, where during the
lest few years they have had long
winters, it has been proved over and
over again that for really good lay.
ing, either on a bleak hill-aide or in
n shady meadow, one must liave the
nil specimciis of this variety are
splendid layers, and that it only re-
quires n sufficient number to gain an
early independence; but I do believe
that, taken on the whole, White Or-
pingtons are one of our best breeds
for winter laying, slid, giviaiia good
laying strain at the beginning, the
restilts would seein well up to expec-
it ucv to intlividiial egg averages
ivrtiiietl is t1 variety that will pro-
duce sufficient eggs in winter to leave
a handsome profit, and always be
tiiorouglily reliable. If the farmer
will give the Wliite Orpington a fair
trial. adopt no special system of ex-
pensive managcmeiit, bitt just the
saint: as metctl out to the other
flocks, there is little doubt that some
of the older varieties would very
soon be replaced.
