A ham was on the stove, its des'c tinles presided over by a young colored woman from up In the mountains. >. "Jane," cnlled the mistress of the L house, "don't let that ham boil."

Isn't there a big interro- I ration point in the minds of all think- ' ng persons as to whether I don't till j ny place in the big scheme?" Of course there ure always the com- 1 nandrnents to confront us when we c eel progressive and broad-minded. 3ut these are the days of eugenlcB and lome-mado marriage Bervicee and no s narrlages at all in some homes? v nostly bungalows. p One hesitates to think what things night bo if, for instance, there were 10 divorce.

Not Always So Common. Our great-grandmothers and fathers ( did without It to a great extent and , ivent on cheerfully throwing the china } it each other till death did them part. ( Sex questions were ignored. Now t they teach the answers in the schools, j There are no more of the scorching love nffairs or the blistering letters except In the police news. It is woman that has changed, of , course. Sir Galahad Is not much . heard of at the ladiee' clubs. He be- , longed to a time when they used to , have stereoptlcon views and a chamber of horrors called a Family Album an the marble-topped parlor table. , These made up the joy of life. Men and women respected each other and there was less comradeship between them In marriage and out of ^ It than now. And divorce was not considered at ull nice. Show girls didn't run off with col- , lege boys and enter Into the holy bonds on a dare, for it wasn't so easy to escape and win on the almony question when the honeymoon wne oyer. This was back In tho elghteen-flftles. But with the early sixties divorce began to boom. They started to keeD trnck of them. There were about ten I thousand a year. Now there are ninety thousand.

If she didn't like :hecks she could get antieeptically iprayed and germlesa money. Naturally embarrassed and con'uaed, she would be offered tea and :akes and then politely shown out of i secret door opening on another itreet. For, as some one once said, t is nothing to be seen going any ^lace, it Is to bo seen coming out :hat counts. For, of course, divorce Is not yet julte respectable. That is one of the .'harming things about it. That Is a hat made lteno such a pleasant place o stop?far pleasanter, for instance, than Chautauqua or the East Aurora 'arm. Culture isn't everything. Many Possibilities in Idea. The concentration and localization t)f divorce in this Temple of Alimony would rob it of many of its terrors. It would give It a cachet Remember what a dreadful sort of trade pawnaroklng ueed to be. And now look it it as it is carried on in little white marble buildings resembling Carnegie libraries or Turkish baths, with rows 5f motors at the door. The idea teems with possibilities ind there isn't the shadow of a doubt that what to the thoughtless reader iiuiy Deem a jen win De one or tlie realities of tho future. For there 1b no stamping It out. Divorce is growing Divorce Doesn't Thrive in the Tenement District. nnd, while laws may be made which will restrict it and make it more difficult, men and women will wrench the bonds asunder when they find them troublesome. As It stands at present it must always be a wrench and a wrangle. Lawyers control it now and make it as elaborate as possible. Tho more fuss there is about litigation the higher the price. The Temple of Alimony would have to secure a high priest?one of those terribly bald men with eyeglasses whose name has never been touched by the breath of scandal. This le always a wise move when running anything at which the finger of scorn is likely to point. The Amalagamated Alimony Ameliorative association would have to have one of these Who's Whos. A;id to stun reporters, investigators or muckrakers there should be a chaste waiting room with plush rugs for the weary feet of the allmonyettes to tread upon. Literature of Right Order.

In 1907 the divorces numbered 72.062, the estimated increases in five years periods - being 30 per cent. New York furnishes only 20 divorce to every 100,000 of population. About 9.000 men in New York are paying alimony. Figuring $35 a month as a fair average, the total alimony payments a year in New York reach $3,780,000. And on this in neat rows Boine of tho more serious magazines. Tho literature of the temple of alimony would be one of the most important items. It should by all means Include a Book of Divorce Etiquette. Francis Crowninshleld could get one up splendidly. He did that Rules for Dinner Conversation?a book that no one who pretends to be anyone can afTord to be without. You may recall the beginning page. To start conversation gracefully with a dinner neighbor who may be unknown to you, take up your roll and ask smilingly: "Is this my bread or yours?" If ever a manual of this sort was needed badly It Is In this matter Of divorce. Because everything is at present so crudely ordered In regard to the matter no one knows what to do. If two divorced people were to meet and shake hands In friendly fashion, or even appear decently civil to each other. they would be talked about. As a general thing they are so happy over the separation that they have only the most grateful feelings for each other. The one matter that seems to create dissension?and this also should be arranged by some decisive, just set of rules?is the division of the worldly goods?the wedding presents, the plate. Proper Division a Requisite. Who gets the canary? Which is to have faithful Fido? It is all right for Annabel to take the pearls that Alfred has given her?the toilet Ivory?but It would seem as though she might leave him the silver cigai 'Ate box which his best man gave him. If half the Annabels and the Alfreds could be separated on probation, as some of the judiciaries are now doing, they would make up their rows. Any number of couples would fall on each other's necks and go out of the courtroom weeping tears of Joy. Nerve fagged, tired men who feel that their wives dislike them; neurotic, novel-fod women who think he doesn't love them any more, rush into divorce wlthoat in the least meaning to do so. The Temple of Alimony might help them to make up their minds.

SHOW PICTURE OF THE DEAD Tombstones In New England Cemetery Are Furnished With Somewhat Unique Decoration. Many means have been used for mnrking the resting place of the dead, or in ornamentation of their graves, from the ornate tombs of marble and granite to the grotesque totem poles of the American^ndians. The French, who are noted for their line taste in decoration and their discrimination in art matters, disfigure their marble tombs with hideous wreaths of Jet or purple glass beadH. But It has remained for a little cemetery in New Englaud to set a new fashion in a means of commemorating the dead. A hole is chiseled into the slab or monument and into thle is fitted a picture of the one whose grave is beneath. The portrait is generally a photograph or tintype. A cover which can easily be li'ted up is then placed over the opening. Anyone passing through the cemetery and wishing to know how the person befo.-e whose tombstone he has halted appeared ^i life has only to raise the little cover over tho picture to satisfy his curiosity. This 1b by no meane a new custom In this town. It began many years ago. On one of the monuments is a photograph placed there in 1865, which is as clean as though it had been put there a year ago. Though this custom of having tombstones made to hold portraits originated in this particular place, it is now being adopted In neighboring towns.?Harper's Weekly. Brazil's Black Diamonds.

The case of Stehr vs. State before the supreme court of Nebraska involved the sentence of a father for from one to ten years in the penitentiary for criminal negligence, because during a blizzard In Nebraska, when the weather was bitter cold, he permitted the Are to go out, snow drifted through a crack in the door and a broken windowpane. and the bedding of all the members of the family was frozen stifT. The feet of one of the children were frozen, and nlthough such fact was apparent to the father no physician was called in for sixteen , days, when amnutation was found to be necessary and the child died of blood poisoning. The defendant was convicted of manslaughter for criminal negligence in failing to provide medical care after he discovered the frozen condition of the child's feet. In afllrming the conviction the court held that for a parent having special J charge of an infant child culpably to 4 neglect it so that death ensues as a 1 consequence is manslaughter, although death or grievous bodily harm was not intended, and if the parent has not the means for the child's nurture it is his duty to apply to the public authorities for relief. \ A Triumph Of Cookery?
