An excellent way to dispose of the
man with thu muck rako would be to
get rid of the muck.

Tho Supremo Court decision concern
ing divorces has given Ncwjwrt society
something besides monkey dinners to
think about
Nlklsh Is said to demand (50,000 a
year as leader of tho Ilostou Hymphonj
orchestra. This Is not a caso of "art
for art's sake."
This Is very well to know, If tho young
matt will ulso keep In mind tho fact
that he will not always be a young
man. In the samo degree that ho has
opportunities when ho Is young he will
bo deprived of them when youth Is
gone. It behooves him, therefore, to
provldo against tho enforced retire
ment that awaits htm Just at the tlmo
when he may begin to feel that his ex
perience fits him for tho best work.
If ho Is past 20 ho must get rid of
tho notion that ho Is "preparing" him
self for life. It matters not who ho
Is or what ho Is, he Is living his l)fo
mote tetinply and moro decisively In all
probability than he will ever bo doing
at a later period. If the young man lis
waiting for some rich relative to dlo
and leave him capital with which to
start Into business "right," he had bet
ter rcnllzo that tho only way to start
Into business right Is with his two
hands, and that tho best capital now
adays Is a combination of Industry,
sense, pluck and application. The
young man who has this capital needs
nobody's money. Ho who has It not
would not succeed If ho had a dozen
fortunes as a foundation. Money to
day does less for a young matt who
will not also do for himself than It
ever did before In tho world's history.
Money, lands, property and all that
form n smaller part In human life to
day than over before. Time was when
theso things comprehended almost all
that men knew about or strlved for.
Hut the field of aspiration, of effort
and of accomplishment has Immeasur
ably broadened and will contlntto to
broaden as man develops. There Is no
man on this earth no afflicted, so nar
rowed by environment but that thero
Is a Held of success for him. And tho
tlmo to find It and 1111 It Is in youth.

Ono or tho Sunday papers contains
an article on "Tho Passing of l'oker."
Tho article may have some- historical

A Loudon woman died recently from
thu effects of tight lacing. Advocates
of tho corset will, however, set up tho
claim that her stays might have saved
her life If somelsMly had shot at her

Tho President says that men of
wealth who run their hii-ducs with a
cynical contempt for the restrictions
of law are it menace to the commun
ity and that tho nation Is In need of
high Ideals. A very good way to es
tablish theso high Ideals would be to
lint Into Jail a few of tho prominent
oncuders guilty of this menacing con
tempt. Ideals can not bo entabllshed
and maintained without action, and
vigorous action at that. Thero Is now
n good chance to bring this contempt
to book and make tho law restricting
the selllsh operations of great wealth
and greed more than a mere doad let
ter. Tho world will read with amused In
terest tho broadly heralded statement
that the wife of a multimillionaire has
recently traced her nucestry hack to
tho twelfth century and simultaneous
ly has discovered that tho blood of
kings (lows In her veins. Prldo of
birth li commendable where It Is not
offensively exploited. It Is a worthy
boast that ono Is a descendant of those
who fought to form or fought to save
this Union. Ilesldes It Is a pedigree
that Is easily established. It Is differ
ent In tho case where ono seeks to
provo a descent front ancient and no
ble forbears, although It Is compara
tively easy when tho notorious fact Is
tvcalled that for llleral considerations
European experts will prepare it pedi
gree, whether the beuellclary lo a rat
trnppeddler or railroad nmgnate, Hint
will stand thu test of casual examina
tion. From factory and olllco'tip to col
lego and church tho cry Is for tho
young man. Tho world Is his to do
with ns ho sees lit. Tho young matt of
to-day Is master of n business nt an
ngo when his grandfather had scarce
tlnlshcd utt apprenticeship. Universal
education ami quick mid cheap com
munication bring to tho young man
now a pructlcnl grasp of affairs which
only long years of experience could
give to our fathers tlfty years ugo.
Wholly Irrespective of Its effective
ness as a matter of law, tho recent do
clslon of the Hupromo Court of tho
United States In regnrd to divorce Is
hailed with delight from ono end to
tho other of this country. Tho amount
of embarrassment that It will occa
sion wns greatly oxoggeraled nt llrst,
as wiih qultu natural, hut a little ro
flection shows that no great commo
tion will bo occasioned. Obviously no
marital relations can bo affected un
less they got Into tho federal courts,
and this can happen only nt thu suit
of parties In another Htato or by soma
suit Involving tho Interpretation of tho
United States constitution or statutes.
Thts can hardly happen except In con
nection with Inheritances nnd Inherit
ances are easily superseded by wills.
Nino-tenths of tho peoplo who nro tech
nically Involved will novcr experience
any trouble nnd most of them will
never hear of tho decision. Tho Im
portant thing nhout this decision Is Its
moral Influence. It In llko n thunder
clap and n lightning stroko from n elenr
sky. Tho loftiest tribunal In tho land
utters a scathing denunciation of the
overgrown dlvorco evil and tho great
heart of tho nation utters n loud
"anion." IJeep calls unto deep in n
hearty condemnation of a great moral
wrong nnd Immediately there Is heard
on every lip n demand for legislation
that will mako the decision it national
law. Tho habit of dlvorco Is entirely
a cultlvoted habit. Tlfty years ago
thero wero almost no divorces nnd mar
ried peoplo wero much happier than
they nro now. Even now thero nro no
dlvorco laws In South Cnrollnn, and
unless tho married people of that Stato
ore made restlvo by tho evil In other
Stntes no doubt they nro tho most con
tented married people In this country.
It Is because tho dlvorco laws oxclto
unrest wheio thero was none beforo
that tho evil has reached Its present
proportions. Tho divorce habit Is Ilka
"the beginning of strife," which Solo
mnii says Is "as when one lettetli out
wnter." Tho simile Is drawn appar
ently front a leak In n lovee. It Is
scarcely perceptlhlo nt llrst. hut It
grows with alarming rapidity, nnd
after it while- puts nil restraint at de
fiance. Have wo got that fur with thn
dlvorco evil? Obviously If wo nro ever
to bo delivered It must bo by the opio.
slto process. Thero Pectus to bo nn es
tablished projwrtlou between supply
nnd demnnd In divorces, Just nn there In
In merchandise. We havo been over
whelmed with the demnnd on account
of the bountiful supply provided by un
wise legislation. If this demand In
ever to Ito lessened It must bo by shut-
ting off tho supply. No doubt tho more
dlfllcttlt dlvorco becomes the more
pcncenblo, tho homo will bo and tho
fewer will be tho dlvorco suits.
