COMMERCIAL AND BUSINESS-
LIKE MARRIAGES.
By L. A. Miller.
The question is often asked, why is
it that there are more unhappy mar-
riages now than in former years. Are
there more ?
It must be remembered that the fa-
cilities for hearing of them have been
increased to such an extent that the
greediness of the people, and of news-
papers for news of this character is
so much greater than it was half a
century ago, that a dozen cases of do-
mesitic infelicity are heard of now,
where, under the old style, not more
than one would have become public
property.
In those days marriage was more of
a commercial transaction than it is
now, which had a tendency to create
uncongenial alliances. It was an old
custom, brought from the mother
country, where it continues to the
present time. Parents did the match-
making. The social and financial fea-
tures were the ones they looked after
most carefully, leaving cupid to shoot
in vain.
In some respects the commercial
marriage was a good one; at least it
had the advantage of being planned on
a business-like basis. The whole af-
fair was talked over coolly and dispas-
sionately by the parents, much as if
they were bartering a piece of prop-
erty; love being one of the smallest
considerations in the transaction. The
prospective husband was awarded a
dowery, or bonus for taking the girl
off the father’s hands. This bonus
was expected to be a fair share of the
old man’s wealth.
As un-American as this custom is,
it had a deep hold here and it is only
within a recent period that wives have
not been expected to bring something
more than their hearts and a few suits
of clothes to their new homes. In the
rural districts it is yet the custom for
the parents to give each daughter a
cow, a feather-bed and oftimes a horse
and saddle; where the parents are well
fixed they give more.
The country bride usually has the
“making. of -her own match. She is aid-
ed and.abetted more-or-less, however,
by her mother and all ‘the neighbor
women, except such as have daughters
“who are on the same trail. One rea-
son that country girls are allowed to
have so much say in the matter is that
if they should ever rue their bargain
they cannot jaw their parents about
it. As a rule, however, they do not
rue it, since they are not as apt to
make mistakes as town or city girls,
because they are not so helpless and
dependent.” If their husbands meet
with reverses they .can take a hand
in managing affairs; or if they turn
* out to be worthless, they can, as a {
rule, hustle for themselves. They do
‘not expect to recline on beds of roses
when they get houses of their own to
manage, consequently are not disap-
pointed when they find the new life
but little different from that they left.
The bachelor and maid, who are
such from choice, are true philoso-
phers. They cannot see the advantag-
es of changing a tolerable condition
for one that may be intolerable, or at
least no better than their present one.
They are free to come and go as they
please; to indulge their taste without
hindrane and to enjoy the society of
whomsoever may be agreeable without
fear of exciting jealousy. Why should
our bachelor friend deny himself the
many pleasures he would have to fore-
go were he to marry? As itis, he is
never at a loss for the society of la-
dies, whereas, if he had a wife the
chances are she would soon lose her
taste for going out and enjoying life
as she did before marriage. She
would be exacting about his return at
all times and hold him to a strict ac-
count of his whereabouts when out of
her sight. This is extremely annoy-
ing to a man, and it will drive him in-
to forbidden paths sooner than almost
anything else. The silliest part of
this howl against bachelors is the de-
mand for compulsory marriage.
Voluntary marriage is often bad
enough, dear knows; but how much
worse would compulsory marriage be,
What is the result of the instances
where it is practiced! Most misera-
ble! Learning to love is all bosh, a
delusion and a snare. One may learn
to admire, but not to love. If there is
not a natural affinity there can be no

love, any more than there can be a
union of oil and water. These can be
agitated until they mix, but when al-
lowed to become quiet they separate
and are still oil and water. Compulso-
ry marriage is a travesty on a sacred
rite; a sin against God and man; a
shame and disgrace to any people. In
the first place it requires two persons
to swear falsely, to perjure them-
selves; and in the second it cuts two
persons off from society and blights
their lives.
The married state is the natural
state for man, and the one he should
aim to reach and to honor. He is
guided toward it by instinct; gravi-
tates toward it naturally and is aid-
ed in reaching it by the customs of
society. When he enters it deliberate-
ly and with the intention to be useful
and happy in it, he will be, provided
he is supported in his determination
by the one whom he has chosen to be
his confidant, companion and partner.
In olden times when a couple were
married they considered themselves
bound by holy ties 2nd felt that it
would be a sin indeed to violate even
the smallest vow they had taken. They
became resigned to the fate they had
chosen, and “come weal, come woe,”
they considered it a sacred duty to
meet it with cheerful . resignation.
Thoughts of divorce rarely entered
their minds. If a spirit of dissatis-
faction arose they sought a way to put
it down. They made due allowance
for the weaknesses of each other's
burdens. Paul said to Timothy that it
was better not to marry. He evidently
did not mean that for all classes of
men, but for such as Timothy and
himself. Their callings required them
to lead rambling, unsettled lives. It is
better for any man not to marry un-
til he is settled down. If he must
wander from place to place, he had
better do it alone. The man who is
away from home a great deal cannot
become attached to it as closely as he
ought. It is not home to him when
he returns to it once a month, or two
or three times a year. He is merely
a visitor, and he feels that he is only
such. To enjoy a home one must be-
come acclimated to it, feel drawn to-
ward it, and have a desire to return
to it whenever separated from it. The
man who is at home wherever he
hangs up his hat, has no home at all.
Neither has the man whose presence
is not a source of happiness in his
domicile.
I could give chapter after chapter
of solemn facts that would startle the
reader, but I will not, for should you
not accept the result of my observa-
tions, nor place confidence in my judg-
ment, you will not believe even though
I give you the evidence chapter by
chapter Many years of my life spent
in the-city and cotntry has. sufficed to
give me .a very intimate knowledge of
social relations; besides I have not
been a thoughtless observer, but have
traced up the causes leading to many
of the graver cases of domestic infe-
licity. If you have a home don’t let
it be a discordant one. Adieu!
A BROKEN MIND AND
BROKEN LEG.
Homer Folks, of New York, recently
delivered a radio: health talk choosing
for his subject keeping the mind well.
“Often we hear people remark,” he
said, “when they learn of some friend
who has gone insane: ‘Oh, how terri-
ble—death would be better than that!”
Such statements have been made
through the centuries, and until re-
cently not without a great deal of
truth. But times change. "Even the
grouch who insists the world is going
to the dogs cannot deny that great
progress has been made in health mat-
ters, especially in the last 50 years.
INSANITY A MATTER OF HEALTH.
“Insanity is a matter of health, as
much as tuberculosis. It is no longer
the mystery it used to be when it was
thought that to become insane was an
everlasting doom which some awful
fate had placed upon a person. To be
accurate, we should not speak of in-
sanity, but of mental diseases. That
change in wording shows the progress
that has been made. A person who is
mentally diseased is today in this
State cared for in a hospital, attended
by a trained nurse, treated by a doc-
tor, and in many cases cured, just like
a person who is ill from any bodily
disease.
THINGS OF THE PAST.
“In the same way, insane asylums
with their hopeless atmosphere are a
thing of the past in this State at least,
and in their place we have modern
State hospitals well deserving of the
name hospital. About one-fourth of
all the mental patients who are admit-
ted to the New York State hospitals
each year for treatment are cured and
nearly an additional one-fourth are so
improved as to render it possible for
them to return to their homes.
MENTAL DISEASE CURABLE.
“Mental disease is not the tragedy
it used to be. It is often curable.
Much of it is prenventable. There are
now over 40,000 persons under treat-
ment in the New York State hospitals.
Many, if they could have had the
chance to receive early treatment
when the first signs of their mental
trouble appeared, could have been re-
stored to full mental health without |
ever having entered a hospital. Re-
coveries are in direct ratio to the
promptness with which treatent is be-
gun. That opportunity for mental
health which a previous generation
did not have is now placed almost at
our very doors. :
FREE MENTAL CLINICS.
“These same State hospitals are
conducting in various cities through-
out the State free mental clinics to
which any one can go and confidential-
ly seek the advice of a’ well-qualified
mental specialist. These clinics are
not only for those who are on the
verge of a mental breakdown, but are
for all persons who find their ‘nerves’
interfering with their ability to get
along with people, to do their best
work, or to get the fullest enjoyment
out of life. Sensible people are over-
coming any false pride they may have
had about consulting the mental clin-
ic. A broken mind is not more repre-
hensible than a broken leg, and it ve-
quires equally prompt treatment.—-
Philadelphia Public Ledger.
FARM NOTES.
—TFeed alfalfa as you would grain, |
not as you would hay.
—The soy bean will resist drouth
better end also be less sensitive to an |
excess of moisture than either cow |
peas or corn.
—Colts frequently lose bloom and
flesh at weaning time. They should
have been taught to eat hay and grain |
before being weaned.
—A poorly ventilated stable has
caused horszas to suffer more from pul- |
monary diseases during the winter
than in summer. The average case of |
influenza, or even cold distemper, will
not require much medicinal attention !
if an abundant amount of fresh air is
allowed the patient. Fresh air is need-
ed to keep a horse in good health; it
is equally important in cases of suf-
fering from any respiratory trouble.
The most skillful medical treatment
will be useless without it.
—Every now and then some section
of the country is visited by some
strangers, who, with smooth tongues,
influence some farmers to go into a
contract for furnishing or stocking an
orchard. The contract generally calls |
for several hundred trees at about $1
each. One-half of this money is paid
on delivery of the goods and the other
half at the expiration of five years, or
the firm reserves the right to take
one-half of the crop of the fifth year.
In some of the contracts itis stipu-
lated that the nursery company is to
trim the trees for five years.
In due course of time the stock is
delivered and the first payment col-
lected. That generally ends the en-
tire transaction; by the half-payment
the farmer has paid the representative
a big price for the trees, and they nev-
er return to trim the trees or even to
collect the last installment.
It is always safest to refuse to go
into any contract with strangers, and
especially those who guaranteé impos-
sible things. That class of imposters
hurt the legitimate business of respon-
sible firms, and also discourage many
in the growing of fruit.
—There is nothing mysterious about
farming, and yet, to make a success,
the farmer must be a practical man.
He must use common sense, and a
good deal of it. Farming, when con-
ducted with the same skill, economy
and enterprise which characterizes
most other fields of industry, affords
ample remuneration; it leads to a bet-
ter physical development than almost
any other vocation of life, and its les-
sons and surroundings promote a
higher moral and spiritual develop-
ment than any other calling. There-
fore it pays.
; To be successful, the farmer must
judiciously apply his time andtintelli-
gently” rotate “his ‘crops. He must
know how to divide his time. The man |
who works from 15 to 18 hours a day !
is the man who got behind in his work. |
He planned wrong. Had he systemat-
ically arranged matters, and had used :
good, sound judgment, he would have |
had no trouble to complete a good
day’s work in 10 hours, and been up
to date with all his duties. Ten hours
working under a system 'will accom-
plish more than 15 to 18 hours. other-
wise. 73 y
. Every farm should have live stock
|
of some kind, but the selection:should:!:
be according to the facilities and the
talent the man possesses in that line.
Some men naturally take to horses, |
others to cattle, others to swine and,
some to poultry. A good horseman
is not necessarily a good dairyman,
and vice versa. He should, therefore,
go strongest on that line for which he
is best fitted. It may be said the same |
of sheep, or hogs, or poultry. While |
it may be profitable to have a few of
all the above, the farmer should not go
too deeply with any that he does not
fully understand, or that he has no
special liking for.
Some farmers are always behind
with their work for the reason that
they have selected the wrong branch- |
es. They work hard and are econom-
ical, but they are handling work they
do not fully understand. Then, too,
they use too much muscle at the sac-
rvifice of brains.
Some men are continually changing |
from one branch to another. Before |
they are able to give one thing a fair |
trial they change to another. It is:
only those who stick that succeed.
The sooner one sticks to a certain line .
the sooner and better will he under-
stand: it. It is only the ignorant who
learn anything by experience. !
Cleaning off all the rubbish left over |
from last season’s gardening is the!
way to get rid of any insects. Leaves, |
stems and other litter should not be |
permitted to accumulate up to the!
time of planting. Weeds should be!
gathered and burned. |
- Thoroughly working the soil over |
during the winter will destroy such in-
sects as spend the winter on or a few |
inches below the surface. Generally
this is done a month or so before
planting time.
The orchard demands humus. Unless
it is furnished there will eventually be
no trees. Where there is no sod, and ;
where each fall the leaves are remov-
ed from the ground, the soil will final-
ly get in that condition that even |
though fertilizers be used freely, it
will be unable to do its best.
Under conditions like that large’
quantities of barnyard manure or for-
est leaf-mould should be used to pre- |
vent deterioration of the soil. In bare
orchards the trees are more readily
weakened by cold weather than when
they are surrounded by sod, and par-
tially winter-killed trees are apt to be
attacked by bark beetles, which are as
dangerous a pest as the San Jose
scale.
The orchard should be kept clean of
all unnecessary trash that has laid on
the ground during the summer and
fall, together with the leaves of such
trees as are known to have sheltered
pestiferous insects, and destroyed by
fire.
Where cover crops are employed
they should be plowed under deeply in
early spring, in order that the insects
hibernating above ground may be
hopelessly buried and perish. There
is no objection to placing a straw
mulch around the trees after the in-
sects are safely hidden for the winter,
providing tillage has been followed
throughout the entire season.

| REMARKS OF “SETTING” HEN
Some Pertinent Observations Supposed
to Have Been Made by Some-
what Disconsolate Biddy.
People say I'm independent. Well, if
1 want to set, I'm going to and nobody
can change my mind.
Men are so rough. They come and
yank me off my nest like I was a neces-
sary evil. I think I have a right to fly
back at them sometimes.
I like women best. They come and
pet me and lift me off my nest so
gently that I wish I could thank them
for it.
I haven’t much use for an old hen
that wants to set all the time. Twice
is enough. I know one hen in the flock
that set all last summer and started
out bright and early again this spring.
If the boss was onto his job he'd make
a chicken dinner out of her.
Wonder why all the hens peck at me
when I ruffle up and go ouc into the
yard to get a breath of fresh air.
I hate incubators. They are going to
rob us of all our chicks and before long
we won't have any excuse for setting.
People must think we don’t want to be
mothers.
I'm getting awful thin. People think
we don't need much when we are set-
ting all the time, so they throw in only
a little ear corn and the rats get the
most of it.
I wish somebody would invent a real-
for-sure lice killer. I don't want any-
thing to do with any quack stuff.—

IS LARGEST BARREL VAULT
Structure Built Many Centuries Ago
Proves Value of Bitumen Used
to Cement Mortar.
Oil seeps, large and small, occur
throughout Persia and Mesopotamia.
Asphalt played an important part in
the enduring character of the build-
ings of the ancient civilization in that
part of the world. One of the most re-
markable instances of the use of as-
phalt or bitumen is the Arch of Ctesi-
phon on the River Tigris, about thirty
miles to the south of Bagdad. This
arch was built by Chosroes, one of the
Sassanian kings, about the year 55
A. D,, and of this famous structure
two wings are still standing. It is
*huilt of bricks lald in bitumen, and
the original structure consisted of a
large hall 163 feet long and 86 feet
wide with a vaulted roof 95 feet high
open at one end and closed at the
other. The crown of the arch was 9
feet thick, and the wall supporting it
23 feet across at the base. The open
end of the hall was flanked by two
wing walls, rising to the height of the
top of the arch and some 20 feet thick
at the base,
The whole is built of large, flat.
burnt bricks, some of them bearing a
ineiform stamp. The Ctesiphon arch
has always remained the largest bar-
vel vault in the world, and furnishes
valuable evidence as to the value of
Yitumen used in cement mortar,
“The Bloody Run.”
The stream now known as Bloody
Run, whose gorge may be traced in
Elmwood: cemetery, was formerly Par-
ent’s creek. The name was changed
after the defeat and slaughter of Cap-
tain Dalzell and bis company by the
Indians on July 31, 1763. Just before
daybreak on that day, Dalzell marched
out of the fort of Detroit with 250
men. They made their way along the
ridge on the line of what is now Jef-
ferson avenue. The Indians were am-
bushed on both sides of the Parent's
creek and when the “soldiers had
crossed the bridge at this point they
were attacked. Only 90 men under
Major Rogers succeeded in escaping
the massacre that ensued. This was
an incident of the Indian war that re-
sulted from the conspiracy of Pontiac.

Thrifty.
At the Kingsway theater, owing to
the absence of one of the company, a
recent matinee performance had to he
abandoned and the audience were in-
formed that their money would be re-
turned. To the amazement of the
Hebe in the bar, one of her patrons ap-
peared and calm!y asked for the re-
fund of ninepence which he had ex-
pended on a lemonade. “But,” gasped
the astonished girl, “yon can’t expect
your money back—you’ve had the
lemonade.” “Ah,” said the optimistic
one, “but T shouldn't have spent the
money if I hadn’t come to this mati-
nee !”—London Opinion.

RATTLESNAKES ANNOY FEW.
Raymond L. Ditmars, curator of
reptiles of the New York zoological
garden, who is said to know more
about the creatures than any other
expert, while saying that there are
many rattlesnakes in this country, no-
tably in New York and Pennsylvania,
declares that there are very few rec-
ords of injury from them. In a recent
investigation, where he questioned the
residents of districts where the snakes
were known to be numerous, he heard
of only one serious accident, and that
was to an intoxicated man who invited
disaster.
Rattlesnake dens are raided with
impunity by Mr. Ditmars and his as-
sistants, and many of the snakes are
caught. A den about 125 miles from
New York, which was raided last
spring, yielded many rattlesnakes and
copperheads, blacksnakes and serpents
of other varieties. Many of them were
sent to the Antwerp zoological garden
in Belgium. A rattlesnake’s den is
not a den in the general acceptance of
the term—a cave such as a large ani-
mal would occupy.
One den in the Berkshires is on the
southern side of a hill, where there
seems to have been an upheaval of
large rocks with big spaces and crev-
ices between them. The sun throws
its rays there winter and summer, and
it is thought that there are hot springs
beneath. It is underneath these rocks
that the snakes hibernate in winter,
and on the last warm days in the fall
they may be seen sunning themselves
outside, on the “doorsteps of their
home, and after a long sleep they
come out again in 'the spring for a
few days and then, thoroughly warm-
ed and awakened, start off in pairs to
cover the country and find food. Where
they go it is difficult to tell, for Mr.
Ditmars says that covering the coun-
try where they are liable to be, it is
very rare to find one. ;
In discovering dens where the
snakes hibernate, year after year, on
collecting. trips, the curator and his
aides have made every effort to learn
of cases of people who have been in-
jured by them. After basking for a
few days in the sun at their dens in
the spring, a small number, it is found,
will stray down into the meadows and
farm lands and are seen and killed.
Occasional specimens are found in the
barrens and open spots among low
huckleberry bushes, but this is a small
proportion of the large numbers that
emerge from the dens, most of which
go up into the rocky portions of the
mountains and are never seen by hu-
man beings.—Ex.

Keep the Kidneys Well
Health is Worth Saving, and Some
Bellefonte People Know How to
Save It.
Many Bellefonte people take their
lives in their hands by neglecting the
kidneys when they know these organs
need help. Weak kidneys are respon-
sible for a vast amount of suffering
and ill health—the slightest delay is
dangerous. Use Doan’s Kidney Pills
—a remedy that has helped thousands
of kidney sufferers. Here is a Belle-
fonte citizen’s recommendation:
Mrs. H. W. Raymond, Reynolds
Ave., says, “About a year ago my kid-
neys began to weaken and I had a dull
aching and soreness across my kid-
neys. I could hardly sweep the floor.
I tired easily and had nervous head-
aches. My kidneys: acted too often
and annoyed me a great deal. I read
of Doan’s Kidney Pills and got them
at Runkle’s drug store. They were
the right remedy and after I had used
two boxes I was relieved of the back-
aches and my kidneys were in good
order.”
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that
Mrs. Raymond had. Foster-Milburn

Get the Best Meats
You save nothing by buying poor
thin or gristly meats. I use only the
LARGEST AND FATTEST CATTLE
and: supply my customers with the
freshest, choicest, best blood and mus-
cle making Steaks and Roasts. My
prices are no higher than the poorer
meats are elsewhere.
I always have
—DRESSED POULTRY—
Game in season, and any kinds of good
meats you want.
