3 AN IMPENDING EVIL. Observation t'pon tlie Annual Drx-rcase In tlio Number of MRrrlaj;r. A social reformer, who is as precise in his statements of facts as he is expert in the. manipulation of tinres, reports as the result of the investigation that the number of marriages is decreasing every year. Wo have just cause for alarm if the report is true. Certainly the choice of a wife is a subject full of piquant attraction to a romantic young man who has sown his wilil oats anil is saving his earnings and longs for the comfort and slippered ease of a home of his own. The difficulties of court ship, however, are perplexing, arduous and real. In Knickerbocker times the knot was securely tied after a bluff proposal and the young married couple were ready to start housekeeping with a barrel of potatoes, a blunderbuss and a family Hible. Then life was idyllic and full of romance and song. Hut tcmpora mulanlur and they change for the worse, in most respects. No longer do the married pair llutter through life on wing-? of romance. The chief bond of interest that unite young lovers in this mercenary age i a Government four percent. The domestic tie is so elas tic, divorces so easily procurable, the feminine heart is so tickle withal, that eligible young men feel morbidly t-by about exposing themselves to the mat rimonial noose and would as soon think of slipping a halter around the neck. The rule of woman in masculine at tire anil eoiniiion sense shoes is not a pleasant spectacle to contemplate. But if the girls of the Republic are not mar ried oil' in some way, old maids of the most virulent type, in various stages of physical decline, will be clamoring for their rghts with exceeding vigor and persistency, and who knows whether there will bo enough green tea and scandal left to go around? Already the census table shows a deplorable in crease in their number. They are or ganizing crusades against the most cherished institutions of mankind. If for no other reasons than the above, human ingenuity should devise some method of facilitating proposals and tightening the love knot so there can be no e-eape. Cynics seoff at the mar ital relations. Idle dictations ;u-o de stroying the confidence of young peo ple of romantic temperanwut in one another. Sir George Campbell lias en deavored to prove that there is no such thing as love; that it is a psychological delusion. So long as these ideas pre vail, no easy-going youth will feel like sacrificing the frolic and fun of Bo hemia for the martyrdom of the do mestic circle. lint legislation can rec tify the evil. The law-maker.s should take the matter in hand. They can make courtship a civic duty which the individual owes to society, and enforce it by law. Were men who persist in remaining single disfranchised and di vested of their property, and were women who refused to marry shut up in convents anil denied access to the fashion magazines, the aggressive type of maiden lady who delights in agitat ing social and political reforms, would gradually disappear and an ominous evil would be averted, an evil that all sensible people would seriously deplore. Harold Van Santvoord, in Life. HINTS ON IRONING. ICelluble Infiiriiiiitlou Itolittiiii; to This IMlU cult l'urt of l.-iui.Ury Work. Every housekeeper should acquaint herself with the general rules necessary for ironing. It is difficult to g!ve di rections how to iron well, as experience is the best teacher, b.it there are several things to be observed in doing the work to which strict attention must be given. A strong table of suitable size, and a light ironing board, also a bosom board should be provided. Irons of three sizes are convenient, and should always be kept clean, and smooth; ashes, salt or brick dust are good to clean irons, and wax rubbed occasionally on them will serve to keep them in good order. The sheets and table linens should be ironed first, then the shirts. First iron the shirt all over, wringiiiir a clean cloth out of warm water, and rub over the bosom, which should be rapidly gone over with a clean hot iron, then the plaits should be raised, and ironed again, then dampened with water or polish, and ironed with a polishingiron. Fine thin dresses, or other soft articles that do not need polishing, should bo ironed on a soft blanket. Embroideries should be ironed on the wrong side. Always have near a bowl of clean water, so any spot imperfectly ironed may be dampened and ironed over un til smooth. Ladies' Home Journal. A Story From Chicago. Tlio woman who remarked tuat with one servant your household work is done, with two it is half done, and with three you have to do it yourself, doubt less thought she had said a neat thing. Hut, according to a gentleman of Chi cago, electricity is the only satisfactory domestic servant. lie has litted up his house with electrical apparatus that does every thing. It wakens him in the morning. After that all he has to do is to press knobs. With one pressure the lire Ik lighted, and on goes the kettlo; with another his hot water is sent up stairs. Electric scrubbing brushes keep every thing nice and clean, and an electric page-boy opens the door for wallers and tlio morning's milk. Phila delphia Press. .

A writer in the Boston W says: "Some years asro I noticed for the first time a frail young girl who had taken her position as a candy seller in a door way, upon a particularly cold street. 1 marked her appearance, with a sigh, feeling sure that the severity of a single winter would consign her to an early grave. But what has been the result? She has sat in the same place over since, and instead of going into a decline she has improved in looks year by year, and is now positively robust." Fifteen years ago G. L. Larnie was scalped by the Sioux Indians in the western part of the then Territory of Colorado. Monday he wandered into Waco, Tex., sick, weary and without money. He had been roving about in the mountains for fifteen years. His wounds are still open, and when he lift his hat and raises the bandages he pre sents a ghastly spectacle. Many old frontiersmen gathered about him, and the old Hash leaped into their eyes as they listened to his pitiful story. Steps are being taken to permanently relievo his necessities. Denver 2'ribunc. "The blizzards out in Dakota are so terrible," said a man just in from the North, "that the people string clothes-lines from their homos to the out-houses in order that they may pass to and fro during the prevalence of one of these storms without running the risk of losing their way in their own yards. One can not seo three feet ahead in a Dakota bliz i d, and if he once loses his bearings l.e is almost cer tain to drift out upon the prairie and perish before assistance can reach him.
