Thty Knew. "Children," began the
horse-faced visitor who had been asked
to address a few words to the assembled
Sabbath - school scholars,
"once there was a scoffer for whom
the solemn call of the church bell
hod no appeal. Early one Sunday
morning, although he well knew that
a returned missionary, shaped like a
tub, was going to fill the pulpit and
relate for two and a half hours his
experiences in bullyragging the pentless
heathen in far-off isles out of
their peace of mind, the scoffer donned
his oldest suit of clothes and began
to crank his fllwer. Now, tell me
children, how do you think that
wretched man spent the rest of that
Sabbath day?"
And the dear little young: uns arose
and answered in one voice: "cranking
his flivver!"
What Saved tha Baby. The family
were entertaining callers one afternoon,
and while the grown ups were
talking the baby crept on the floor.
Suddenly there was a loud bump and
wild wail. It came from the direction
of the piano.
"Oh, the baby has hurt himself!"
cried the mother. "Run quick dear!"
The young father had already dashed
toward the piano. He dropped on
his knees and groped under the piano
for his injured offspring. Presently he
returned.
"He fell down and bumped his head
on one of the pedals," he reported.
"Oh, the poor darling! Is it a bad
bump?" asked one of the guests.
"Na" he answered. "Fortunately, 1
bis head hit the soft pedal!" Tit-Bits. 1

The Missouri Mule Abroad. "A long 1
and patient but vain effort on the part
of a khaki-clad driver to Induce a 1
mule, drawing what appeared to be a j
load of laundry, through, the gateway of
a local hospital afforded considerable 1
amusement to the boys in blue, who 1
were watching the proceedings. The
mule would do anything but pass 1
through the gateway. 1
"Want any 'elp, chum?" shouted one
of the boys in blue to the driver, as he 1
rested a moment. *
"No," replied the driver, "but I'd like <
to know how Noah got two of these 1
blighters Into the Ark!" Tit-Bits.

MARRYING FRENCH GIRLS
Many Difficulties But American Soldiers
Generally Manage
MUCH TROUBLE FOR TRANSPORT
French Government Has Made Marriage
Comparatively Easy, But Still
There are More Formalities to be
Complied With Than in America.
There are extra special complications,
as far as American soldiers are
concerned, to keep the course of true
love from running smooth in Prance,
isevertneless, it is estimated that from
5,000 to 30,000 Yanks have taken unto
themselves better French halves, and
no one can predict what ti e figures will
be by the time the army of occupation
Has lett lor home ports. It is quite a
problem, this matrimonial entente cordials
between American youths anu
Pre ch girls, not only to certain America!'
girls whose objections have alread
/ been heard, but the army authorities
who have to arrange to ship the
brid ;s over here in those cases where
the uoughboy decides not to settle down
in France. A correspondent of the Baltimore
Sun writing from Paris, considers
the whole subject, beginning
with the difficulty of transporting
orides:
If you had seen this slip of a girl 1
at the American passport office you 1
would have addressed her as mademo- <
Iselle, but the French clerk called her i
something that sounded like Mrs. 1
Jones. She had bright red cheeks, lus- i
trout; black eyes, and wore little gold i
earrings half concealed by a mass of <
fluffy hair. She spoke only French.
"But Madame Jones," said the clerk <
to her, "I can not help you. If your <
lusband is going to the United States 1
[ am not able to give you permission t
;o accompany him. That is something <
or the military authorities."
"Rut T want to eo with him." said the t
ittle girl, not pleadingly, but defianty.
"He is my husband." " ' 1
"See your husband's commanding of'icer,"replied
the clerk, but let me per- t
>ouaily give you a bit of advice. For- (
jet it, go back to your mother and i
ct him go back to the States." r
The little wife didn't cry. She came t
from a race that put in half of it3 his- t
ory in fighting the Germans and the t
>ther half in fighting red tape. t
"I will see the commanding officer,"
ihe replied. The clerk turned about
with a gesture of helplessness.
"Now look at that,' he said. "This <
justness of American soldier 3 marrying
French women make all kinds of complications.
Her husband is in the army
md is going homo on a transport. She '
wants to go, too, but it is impossible, .
.'or there is no provision for it yet. The
foolish girl belongs at home. She is
anly sixteen."
This is only one chapter in the
jtory of an American dough-boy who
narries a French girl. Although provijion
is made in England for sending
brides home with their sc. Idler husoands,
charging only $1 a day to the
brides, no orders have yet gone forth
permitting French brides aboard transports.
This has opened the whole .
fascinating subject of what happens
.0 a dough-boy when he falls in love
wun a r rencnwumtui uuu uwo m &<=>.
married. Enough happens. The olc
,>oets often compared love and yar.
The comparison still holds good. The
>oldiers who declared that "trying to
,et married in France was like cutting
Jerman barbed wire before a battle"
lad the right idea.
?
There is no primrose path for the ^
ove-smitten dough-boy. I met him as
te approached the mayoralty of the *
lrst arrondissement, a frowning stone ^
>uilding standing well behind the fam>uo
hotel de Ville, and close to the
hurch of SL Gervais, where seventj
persons died when a German shell en- .
ered last good Friday. Up the windng
stone stairs he goes. The stairs
ire well worn by the feet or the thous- .
mds who have gone before him on .
ove's pilgrimage. This is the office of .
narriages.
There is an old, smelly atmosphere in
his office which goes with historic
places. A chandelier with two gasamps
hangs over an ancient desk,
.vhich is a reminder of Lincoln's. The
iaylight which drifts through the winlows
is like a bit of sunlight through
i fog. The secretary in charge is very
jracious.
"The American soldier wants to get
carried," he says. "It Is not difficult.
The government has made things easy ^
.'or him. In the old days the French had i
:o furnish the birth certificate three
nonths before the marriage and a cer- {
.ificate of residence of six months, as j
tvell as the consent of the father and
?
nother for all persons up to the age ^
if thirty, or if these are deceased, the
consent of the grandparents or guard- t
ians. In every instance he had to ^
live thirty days at a special residence j
before marriage was allowed. Of, ^
:ourse, there were other regulations
also. For instance, a military permit "
for all men up to the age of forty-five,
and also certificates of death if a second
marriage was contemplated, or
certificates of divorce and iranscription
of deceased, and so forth. But
now," he emphasized, "we make things
easy for the soldiers."
"What do you do now ?" he was asked.
"Oh, we ask of the American who
is marrying: a French girl only thirty
days' residence," he replied. "Of
course he must furnish an affidavit
that he is a native American, unmarried,
and also a certificate showing
his home address, testified to by a
witness and sworn to before a United
States consul."
"Is that all?"
"Yes, practically, except, cf course,
that he must have the consent of his
commanding officer in writing as well
as to have this turned over to the
French minister of foreign affairs, who
must indorse the consul's affidavit before
it comes to us."
"How about the girl? Do the regulations
provided by French law still
hold good?" I asked.
"Of course, every one of them."
"There is no such thing, then, as
rushing into marriage?"
"Oh, no, monsieur. American sol
diers want to marry rigm away, dui u
is impossible."
Then I proceeded to the office of an
American attorney on the Avenue de
l'Opera, where the dough-boys take
their troubles and get their papers fixed
up. The anteroom was a picture.
There was a dough-boy seated awkwardly
in a deep upholstered chair. He
crossed and re-crossed his legs restlessly.
Another dough-boy was pacing
up and down, studying the carpet.
Two others were on a settee, staring
nil
with an uneasy air at quaint legal
diplomats.
It was evident that there was some*
thing on their minds. Charles G. Loes,
a kindly disposed middle-aged man, a
long-time resident of New Orleans,
came out of his private office and
beckoned.
"Come right in," he said; "I am glad
to have a chat. I am absolutely
swamped with this marriage business. 1
It is out of my line, but I am glad to j
help the boys along."
"Are all these boys waiting to get 1
married?" I asked.
"Every one. Most of them have only
thirty-six hours' leave. They think it (
is like in the United States dollar
for a license, a dollar for a cleryman. '
Hard luck!" He laughed heartily.
"How manv douch-boys do you esti- 1
mate have married Frenchwomen?" 1
"Probably not more than five thousand.
I have heard reports that there j
were thirty thousand, but I believe that
the figure is too large. Of course,
there are no French statistics out yet. 1
American mothers also may be assured (
that their boys are marrying a fine set
of girls, I have met a lot of them, and *
the girls from the provinces especially 1
will make splendid wives."
"What do you do for the boys?" 1
"We get their papers fixed up and see 1
that they get the necessary affidavits." ?
"What*do you charge them?"
"Only sixty-two francs ($12.40). c
That does not really pay for our of- c
flee help, but it does the job for the *
boys, provided they can live thirty days 0
in one place, which the French law 0
demands. This is difficult, .of course, r
t
in Paris, but not so hard for the boys
billeted in. the towns. You would think 1
that the boys would not marry under
the circumstances but you see my
tjffice."
Q
While he was speaking his secretary
mtered in haste and said: "This sol- ^
lier wants to speak to you at once. ^
tfe has only fifteen minutes to reach
the mayor's office for the marriage
:eremony, before it closes at four."
"Great Scott! Don't let him miss it
his time!" exclaimed the lawyer.
"I have an automobile waiting be- ~
ow and will offer it to him," I said. i
I rushed into the anteroom corridor
md heard hurried steps and a banging
loor three flights below. When I
eached the street a scurrying taxi
narked the flight of the dough-boy for
he mayor's office. He had waited
hirty minutes and there was no time
o lose. It was just ten minutes to
'our. ^
A COMFORTABLE ERA.
Ordinary Folk Today Fare Better
" Than Kings and Queens of Old.
People do not appreciate the service
;hat is theirs because so many things
ire taken as a matter of course. When ?
t is considered that Queen Elizabeth a"
was the first queen to wear stockings ti
ind that William the Conqueror lived c
n shacks without window glass, al- ?
nost anybody nowadays can congrat- fl
ilate himself upon living with com- b
.'orts that former kings and queens
lever dreamed of. "
In fact, millions of dollars in wealth
ire at the service of every man. He 1<
.valks along pavements and highways ?
costing hundreds of thousands of dol- n
ars. The light in his home is furnish- li
;d by a plant worth millions- He can a
.ide for 5 cents on a street car line p
worth other millions. The meat he t]
jats is brought from a distance of s<
housands of miles over railroads
worth hundreds of millions, and the ^
lame is true with his flour and other y,
>rovisions. His clothing is gathered M
'mm different corners of the globe by -
ihips and railroads worth still other
lundreds of millions. Thus there are
icores of articles and services which
ire his and which involve billions of
lollars.
If all of these things were furnished
o him alone, the billions would have
o be spent just the same, but it would
>e scarcely more true that he enjoys
he services that billions in wealth
five. One may imagine a man of coossal
wealth moving to a great island
n the Pacific and there spending milions
to build a plant with which to
nake himself a single automobile;
>ther millions to build a factory to
nanufacture him a few suits of clothss;
other millions to build a plant for
he making of plumbing fixtures, and
>ther millions^ for plants to manufacure
other articles commonly used by nan.
One can thus see how great and
lecessary is the wealth at the service
>f every individual.
All of this service is possible because
here are large numbers to enjoy the
vealth thus sold at a trifling price. It
s possible because industry and men v
ire so organized that they turn out ar- P
icles on a huge scale and consequenty
at a smaller price for the individual
irticle. One of the greatest differences
nnH hpnst is that the for- i:
;cuTcci? uivu v ?<v. w~
ner co-operates, some working at one
;hing and others at another, after ^
.vhich they exchange products. In the
oeast world each is for himself and *
akes little regard for the other outside
of a few instinctive respects, like E
he mother's protection of the young. 0
So there is a whole lot more of cooperation
in the world than might ap- c
pear at first thought, for much of it is
inconscious. Upon every hand there
is an intricate system worth hundreds .
of millions at one's service, perhaps k
transportation at 3 cents a mile, a j
magazine for 15 cents, a pair of shoes j
worth $5, etc., all for the price because <
others want the same thing. But If j
one were to be alone to buy these (
things can he Imagine how many mil- j
lions it would cost to build the rail- i
road, to get out the magazine and to
put up the shoe factory? In that light I

Bank if it is most convenient to you.
THE BANK WAY IS THE SURE
WAY of knowing just how you stand

THIS BANK, right at your door, offers
its services to help YOU to better
