MARRIAGE REFORMS.
* _
Advocated by University Professw
in Book Recently Issued.
Mama Inolnda State Supervision of All
Contracts and Liberal Divorce
Laws—Evils In the Social
Structure,
State supervision of all marriage
eontracts, uniform and liberal divorce
laws, the abolition of the common law
marriage and the education of the
young in sex problems are a few of the
reforms advocated in a new book
about to be issued at the University
of Chicago.
The work, in three large volumes,
represents 12 years’ research work on
the part of Dr. George Elliot Howard,
former head of the department of his
tory at the University of Nebraska,
and until recently occupying a similar
post at Leland Stanford, Jr., univer
sity. Prof. Howard is the most recent
addition to the staff of the lecture
division of the University of Chicago
"Our present dual system by whlcl
marriages may be solemnized by eith
er civil officers or clergymen, is not
the ideal plan,’’ says Prof. Howard.
**It Is too complex and Is an obstacle
In the way of the development of an
effective system of matrimonial legis
lation. It Is awkward and thoroughly
Illogical to Intrust the execution of the
laws to two classes of persons; one
civil officers created by the state, the
other completely beyond such control.
The license system is also uncertain
and complex In many of Its features.
“Radical reform in the administra
tion of matrimonial legislation is s
task for future legislators. Every
county should be divided into districts,
for each of which a registrar should
be appointed to license, solemnize and
register all marriages civilly contract
ed therein and to license, register and
attend all religious celebrations of
marriage.
“The lawmaker cannot reach the
root of the divorce evil. It Is planted
deeply In the social structure and Is
In a great measure due to false senti
ment regarding marriage and the fam
ily, a sentiment which can only be
removed by more rational education.
Carefully drawn and uniform statutes
can, however, render conditions favor
able for the operation of this needed
social reform. We need new education
In the problems of sex and this in
struction should be given to ths
young, not prudishly, but frankly, and
perhaps while the child is still In high
school.
"The fact that four of our states—
New York, Utah, California and Mis
sissippi—have liberated themselves
by statutory enactments from the
common law marriage within the past
ten years is of vast social import and
from it reformers may take courage.
In such legislation Hes our hope of be
vng able to free America from ths
•vils of the common law marriage.
“The trouble In a nutshell Is that
there is less care exercised In the mat
ing of human beings than there Is In
the breeding of fat stock. By exercis
ing care In contracting unions we shall
solve the so-called 'divorce problem.' “
THE MYSTERY OF MEMORY.
A Postal Clerk's Wonderful Feat—
Ho Adequate Scientific Explana
tion of the Wonder.
The newspapers are telling of the re
markable feat of a postal elerk who, In
a civil service examination, did not
make a single error in properly sorting
12,000 test postal cards, each represents
ing a post office in a certain territory as
signed. This was done at the rate of
13 1-3 cards a minute. Far more note
worthy is the memory of an expert pi
ano player, who will play an entire sea
ion’s concerts without a note of printed
music before him. His memory is so
perfect that hundreds of thousands at
notes must be at the orderly and instant
disposal of the will. And this is com
bined with a multiplicity of synchronous
recollections of timbre, tempo, expres
sion, etc.
The mystery is at present past the
hinting of any explanation, and this
fact is as beautiful as it is appalling. It
shows us, declares American Medicine,
how far we are from any real science of
psychology. Physicians note the
strange thrusting of disease among the
mechanisms of memory, the morbid ef
fects of some neoplasm or injury to parts
of the convolutions of the brain where
by some memories are lost temporarily
or permanently. In part or completely,
while others are unaffected. Even thli
leaves us in amazement at the inscruta
ble complexity and methods of the lellu
l&r machine.
But through these morbid injuries
we catch tantalizing glimpses which
some day, properly studied and followed
up, may bring some psychologic physi
elan to an unraveling of the mystery.
Justification.
To the minds of the majority of the
country Jersey justice was Btrangely
blinded when it punished the Newark
woman who threw pieces of coal at an
organ grinder for persisting in playing
worn-out ragtime tunes, remarks th«
Baltimore American. Unless, indeed
for the waste of good coal In a bad
cause.
Dansrer in Second Childhood.
Noah Robey, of Plainfield, N. J.
who claims to be 132 years old, is
down with the measles. This second
childhood business, says the Chicagc
Hfecord-Herald, appears to be danger
ous if It is carried too far.

WHO GETS MOCHA COFFEE ?
Ifoit of It Taken by Sheika and Gov
ernors of Arabia—Little Is
Ever Exported.
*1 don’t believe there is a
i pound of genuine Mocha coffee on
J this continent,” Mr. C. T. Hilli
glas, a coffee merchant, informs
tne, says a writer in the St. Louis
Globe Democrat, “or that 200 peo
ple In this country have ever tast
ed It, unless they have at some
time visited Arabia and drunk it
at the table of some sheik or gov
ernor.
“The true Mocha is the finest
eoffee grown; it has a delicious fla
vor that makes it as superior to
the very best of other brands as
silk is superior to cotton, but the
crop is extremely limited, and
hardly ever more than satisfies
purely local demands. Some
Arabian coffee may find its way to
this country; it may even be called
Mocha, but it is not the real arti
| cle, I am sure, and none of us has
j ever had it here, though we get the
best of other brands that are
grown in Ceylon and Java, and
that means some mighty fine cof
fee. It is not Mocha, however, for
the whole of the true Mocha crop
each year wouldn’t supply the cof
fee demands of one ward in St.
Louis alone for a period of six
'months. The best and plumpest
berries of the Mocha growth,
Hiaqo nritli +V10 mr<a+ arnniaito
• --- -- X
flavor, are eagerly taken by
the governors and sheiks in the
vicinity, and they have to get their
orders in in advance, so that they
may be sure of their annual sup
ply. The second-grade berries go
to the wealthier citizens, not of
the governing class, and the third,
or poorest, grade of berries, which
are not much superior to the best
Java coffee, are sold to the people,
and the demand invariably ex
ceeds the supply.
“Sometimes a few pounds of
this cheapest grade of Mocha finds
its way to Constantinople, but It
is very, very seldom, and I don’t
believe an ounce of it has ever got
any further west than that. I pre
sume that if, by some hook or
crook, a pound of the real plump
berried Mocha were landed in this
country it would sell for a price
that even a Rockefeller might hes
itate to pay. We get the best eof
fee grown, apart from the Mocha,
bnt the local conditions which pre
vail where that coffee is raised
prevent us from obtaining any,
and I hardly think the real thfrig
will ever be found in our markets.”
POPE A GREAT FAVORITE.
Em Been a Pulpit Orator of Renown
from Very Outset of His
Priestly Career.
One recalls, writes William J.
D. Croke, in Century, those mov
ing speeches which, as car
dinal, he delivered weeping in the
conclave, setting forth all his im
perfections (his sins, even), and
the disadvantages of his career
from barefooted boyhood up, but
which really secured him the
throne, and the stories of him
which every one knows in Lom
bardy and Venetia. For no ecele
Bias tic can have been more widely
known than he. A pulpit orator
of renown from the very outset
of his priestly career, the sought
after panegyrist of great occa
sions when bishop and patriarch,
no wonder that he was hailed by a
voice In Koine when he took pos
session of his title as cardinal
“No one has spoken so well as this
cardinal!” As country assistant,
I then parish priest, then professor
In the seminary of Treviso, canon,
chancellor of the diocese, great
hierarch of Mantua, the successot
of St. Mark, everyone seems to
know him, and no one has any
memory that is not pleasant.
Developed by Nature.
When the petals of the great
laurel magnolia are touched,
however lightly, the result is a
brown spot, which develops in a
few hours. The fact is taken ad
vantage of by the South Ameri
can lover, who pulls a magnolia
tlower, and on one of its pure
white petals writes a motto or
message with a sharp-pointed pen
cil. Then he sends the flower, the
young lady puts it in a vase of wa
ter, and in three or four hours the
message written on the leaf bfr
comes perfectly visible, and re
mains so.
Charity.
There Is too much charity in thii

WINE or CARDUI
No. 48 Straight St., Grand Rapids, Mich. 8
I am pleased to endorse Wine of Cardui as I found it so beneficial to ■
restore my strength after my baby was born. I could not seem to get well S
enough to be up and able to do my work, and as I had been in bed for six I
weeks this was rather serious, but soon after I began to use Wine of Cardui I ■
could see that I was beginning to get back my strength. In another week 8
I was able to sit up most of the day and in a month I was able to be up and 8j
do most of my work. I think it is yj a y B
splendid medicine for a woman and VA • 8

Life’s Change.
Much Suffering at
This Critical Period
Saved by Dr. Miles’
Nervine.
“Change of Life" Is one of woman’!
greatest and most dangerous troubles.
Often It is not recognized, and the
distressing symptoms are mistaken for
Dyspepsia, Liver, Womb Trouble, etc.
The depressing constitutional effects
of Change of Life, and the female Dis
orders so common at that period, are
best treated with a general nerve re
storative which will give tone to the
entire system—Dr. Miles’ Nervine.
The beneficial effects of this celebrated
medicine are very quickly felt, and the
constitutional disturbances tided over.
Pain and anxiety are relieved, and fresh
energy Infused into mind and body.
It Is the medicine which acts on the
nerves which regulate the organs of the
body.
Such distressing troubles as Backache,
Headache, Bearing-down Pains, Bloat
ing, Indigestion, Menstrual Irregular
ities, Irritability, Dizziness, Loss of
Appetite, Tired Feeling, are relieved and
•ured by Dr. Miles' Nervine.
“My wife was a sufferer from an at
tack of nervous prostration, brought on
by female weakness, and was in very
poor health. After reading one of Dr.
Miles’ advertisements, she concluded to
try Dr. Miles’ Nervine. She obtained
good results from the start, and now
after taking second bottle enjoys good
health. Words cannot express our ap-.
predation of what it has done for us.”—
