Among other absurdities we have well meaning husbands and wives harassing one another to death for no reason in the world but the desire of conforming to current notions regarding the proper conduct of married people. These vic tims are expected to go about perpetu ally together, as if they were a pair of carriage horses; to be forever holding claims over one another, exacting or making useless sacrifices, and generally getting in one another's way. The man who marries finds that his liberty has gone, and the woman exchanges one set of restrictions for another. She thinks herself neglected if the husband does not always return to her in the evenings, and the husband and society think her un dutiful, frivolous, and so forth, if she docs not stay at home alone trying to sigh him back again. The luckless man finds his wife so very dutiful and domesticated, and so very much confined to her "proper sphere," that she is, perchance, more exemplary than entertaining. Still, 6ho may look injured and resigned, but she must not seek kocibty and occupation on her own account, adding to the common mental store, bringing new interest and knowl edge into the joint existence, and becom ing thus a contented, cultivated and agreeable being. No wonder that, while all this in forbidden, we have so many unhappy wives and liored husbands. The more admirable the wives the more pro foundly bored ' the husbands. Herald of Health. The Mysterious Wrestler. In Mr. A. C. Gunter's new book, "That Frenchman," the scene opens in Paris during the last years of the second em pire, changes to St. Petersburg and then to the German-Russian frontjer. The tale is melodramatic in character, as are Mr. Gunter's other books, but the author states that he has tried to develop more comedy. The advance orders he reports at 40.000. He has introduced as one of his characters "the wrestler hi the piak,1 a man who produced a great sensation in Paris in 1867 and '68. This person was supposed to be some great nobleman who was fond of wrestling. He was in the habit of driving to the scene wrapped in a Jong cloak, under which he wore his wrestling dress. Qn his. face lie had a small, black silk mask. He met all com ers and was never defeated. Naturally he was tho source of gossip, and the halls or circus was crowded when it was an nounced that he was to appear. Current Literature. Her Moral Character. - Somo amusing incidents happen at the civil service examinations fvhiph the laws now require to be passed by candidates for official positions and clerkships. It was at an examination here in postop that a young woman, found herself con fronted with the question: "Are you of good moral characters She was very much amused at the question and in doubt how to treat it. Calling the examiner to per desk she said about the question: "I have the reputation of being of good moral character. But you know 'reputation' is what people think of us. while 'cliaracter is what God jmd the angels know of us, and that I don't want to tell." The examiner Baid she need not worry. Albany Express. We Want Self Defense. A New Yorker old enough to know better is reported in The Tribune as hav ing uttered these terribly treasonable protests against some modem improve ments: What with your murderous railroads. your new fangknl bridges, j'our ten story buildings and electric currents over and under and on all Bides of you. 3'our life isn't worth a penny at any time ir any where. If you w alk in the middle of the street, the pavement is just an likely as not to shoot up into the air and blow von out of 6ight- Talk about coast defenses and harbor defenses, what we want is bc-lf defense.

"Human will is free, let doubters say thocontrary, notwithstanding. This the ory to the contrary is tho outcome of ob scure metaphysics. We must, neverthe less, understand the limits in which we :iro free. Let no man lielieve that ho can harbor evil thoughts without being the worse for it. We are, however, free to throw off these thoughts when they enter, and in making this effort lies our redemption. This throwing off must be complete and immediate, else it only leads to renewed ioral degradation. v e must force our thoughts into a new channel when evil ones assail us, but by forbidding them wo only make the de sire more intense. Jesus illustrates this when ho says 'Get thee behind me. Satan "By somo it is argued that this system is cowardly and that we should boldly face pvil. It is true that we ought to be ablo to face it; but it is also true that we are unable to do so successfully. ou hear of the great social sin, the moral filth of which is spread over our city, now can men who have mothers and sisters forget the sanctity of women and profit by this sin? It is de sire that curses them and makes their vision narrow, and they apologize for themselves by saying that the desire is natural. Weaklings all, ever -ready to appeal to nature. Let each man have a task for himself throughout life, and like Ulysses ho will sail past the Birens toward the shining goal. "The two great helps toward this end are the society of good and true men, and particularly that of cultivated and refined women. &n(l the ideal companion ship of those loved ones who have passed away. "In the first we find those thing3 which we nave been striving for taken for granted, and in the second we can do nothing wrong in the radiant beauty of those sweet faces which have gone to the life of infinite peace." New York Herald. Time Is Money. Time well employed produces money or an equivalent gain of some kind. Time idled away or wasted away upon Borne unnecessary or useless labors not only yields no return, but represents a loss of opportunity that cannot be replaced. One may regain any other thing that is squan dered save time. Once gone, it i3 gone for all eternity. Nq more important les son can bo given to the young than that on the value of time. It may be passed by unheeded, for on this subject more than any other men seem determined to learn by experience; but warnings should nevertheless be given, that there may be as early an awakening as may be to the irreparable loss of wasted time. Even the best of men arrived at mid dle ago are sure to have regrets for lost opportunities, for wasted time. Looking back with the knowledge gained by ex perience, thev can see how much better they might have ordered their lives if they had made the best possible use of their time. Such knowledge cannot be expected in younger men. The time will come when they, too, will look back with regret; but they should be given early warning from the experience of others, and be taught as well as may be that time is money, not in the vulgar sense, but in that higher one which represents money as merely a symbol of things that are good to have.

A prominent military man. who had drunk moderately during the war and had abstained from that time cn, while attending a dinner with his old comrades. where most of them were intoxicated. suddenly became l.ilarious, made a fool ish speech, and settled back in his chair in a drunken state, and was finally taken home quite stupid. He had not drunk any spirits and had only used coffee and wiir J:e had all the symptoms ot l.io oJu ie. only his was intoxication from contagion the favoring soil had been prepared long ago in the army. Another case was that of a man who had been an inebriate years ago, but had reformed, says Tho Popular Science Monthly. He was recently elected to office and gave a dinner to somo friends. Among them was a physician who has been greatly interested in these studies, lie sent me a long report, the substance of which was this: On the occasion referred to many of tho coni)any became partially intoxi cated, and tho host, who drank nothing but water, became hilarious and finally stupid with them. He was put to bed with every sign of intoxication, but re covered, and next morning had only a confused notion of these events. The third case occurred four years ago. A reformed man, of twelve years sobri ety, went on a military excursion with a drinking company, and, although he drank nothing but lemonade, became as much intoxicated as the others. This event was the subject of much comment and loss to him, socially and otherwise, although he protested, and others confirmed his statements, that he did not take any spirits at this time. New i ork Journal. A Perfect Sruoka Consumer. I have just returned from Springfield, Mo., where, in the shops of the St. Louis and San Francisco road, I saw a furnace m operation that at once solved the prob lem of smoke consumption and the re duction of coal consumption to the mini mum. It is bound to revolutionize the entire system pf stora making. It ia the invention of Carney, the master me chanic of the road, has been in operation for nearly a year, and is a complete suc cess, lo put it briefly, bv Carnev'e process the highest degree of heat is se cured by burning with every pound of coal twq pounds of water. In fact, water gas is made, and wonder that no one ever thought of it before. Tho 6lack coal is mixed with water in the propor tion of one part to two, and the result is the formation of the gas. Every part of the coal is consumed. At the end of twentv-fourhours there wero but three wheelbarrow loads of fine ashe3 carried away. Had the furnace been fed dry there would have been from eighteen to twenty barrowfuls of ashes and cinderg. There was actually no smoke escaping from tho smoke stack, which was but twelve feet high. I was struck by the shortness of tho $tack, and remarked it to the engineer, who replied: "Why have It any higher? Nothing goes through it." At my request tho water was cut off, and the f urnace was fed dry for two hours, with tho result that the furnace was unable to make sufficient steam to run the machinery in tho shop. This water burning furnace is to mv mind the greatest invention of tho past twenty-five years. Boiler Maker in G lobe-Democrat. A Card in the rocket. Several young married ladies in a cer tain private boarding house in St. Paul are. just now having oceans of fun at the expense of one pf their sex in Rochester, N. . Tho husband of ono of the ladies recently purchased a spring overcoat. W ith (rue womanly instinct his better half, tho first time tho coat was left at home, proceeded to explore the various pockets, end hidden in the little side pocket fhe found a card on which the name and address of a young lady at Rochester, .. was written. Of course the husband wa3 asked to explain, but could not, as he had not been aware of the presence of the card. The idea that it had been placed there bv a young tail- oress who had handled the coat last at the factory struck the spouse in a forcible manner. II is wife was loath to believe such a 6tory, but followed the advice of her husband and wrote to the address given, pretending that she was a young man who had bought the coat. In the mean time she told the other ladies at the house of the affair and all waited impa tiently for an answer. It came, and of course it was as the husband suspected. The writer was willing to continue the correspondence if the gentleman was sincere, etc Another letter is now being written. I wonder how the girl will feel when she discovers that her address fell into the hands of a female instead of some gay deceiver? St. Paul Pioneer Press. Fine Job Work Cheap at Th e Her ild. !
