“The war with Spain,” remarked
the handsome drummer from Phila
delphia, according to the Washington
Star, “may, as our statesmen and ora
tors tell us, be a blessing in that it
has brought together once more in
fraternal union the two sections of
the country split wide open by the
civil war, but while their speeches
are all right in a general way, they
are lacking in some of the particulars.
For instance, two weeks ago 1 was
passing along a remote road in Mis
sissippi. At the ford of a small stream
1 met a man of about 30 years, who
was quite] as primitive a specimen as
I saw in my life. I asked him the
way to the place I was vfter, and, as
he was going the same way, l asked
him to join me, and we enlivened the
journey with conversation. Natur
ally, the first thing I spoke about
after the preliminaries was the war,
and I said I didn't suppose he was in
the fight.
“ ‘No,’ he said, ‘but my daddy
wuz.’
“ ‘How did it happen that he went
in and you didn't?’ I asked.
“‘1 wuzn’t born then, mister,’ he
answered, looking at me as if I ought
to have known better than'to ask such
a question.
“ ‘Oh,’ I hastened to explain when
I caught on to what he was thinking
about, ‘I don’t mean the last war
between the north and south, but the
one that has been on this summer.’
“ ‘Geewhillikins,’ he exclaimed,
‘has ther been another war?’
“ ‘Of course there has,’ I said,
laughing at his surprise and his ig
norance. wl
“‘Well, I’ll be dereed,' he said,
after giving himself a moment’s
thought; ‘it do seem like ez ef we
never would git them dang Yankees
licked plum right; don’t it?’
“Then it took me a minute to com
prehend clearly what was in the mind
of this far-away, unreconstructed
Southerner, and when I did 1 never
let on that he was mistaken in his
facts and conclusions, but jollied him
along for a mile down the road, when
he turned oft into tl\p woods and left
me to pursue my way alone, wonder
ing what there was in the world that
we had not yet heard of.”

Tbe Sea,
It is the sea which ennobles every
thing. Between the lino and the surf
there was but the ancient foreshore,
covered with prickly tamarisks and
mauve colored heath, with yellow sand
conspicuous here and there. At the lim
it of the foreshore the rugged border
line cut clear into a deep and somber
blue. It is she—blue as any grape on
this cluster which hangs in the cooling
breeze. The azure deepens, filling up a
good half of the range of sight; the
white sail of a Ashing smack float*
alone, like a hollow shell; the etenial
monotone of ocean is borne upon the
ear. Draw near and see the leaping sil
ver foam.
Above this Intense blue the sky is trans

are hurrying to light their lamps. Thera
is not a living soul, nor a plant, nor

Four Famous Women Discuss
Tlie Marriage Alarket.
BOOK written by a quartet of
■-.Zm well known English women on
the ever-interesting subject of
marriage has created a sensa
tion in London. The title has been
changed from the antique one of
“Advice to Those About to Marry”
that has done duty for so long. The
new book conies into the literary
field under the name of “The Mod
ern Marriage Market," and it cer
tainly is causing a greater amount of
talk and encountering a fiercer
amount of criticism than any market
volume ever printed.
The writers are women prominent
in England, and their names are suf
ficient guarantee that the book is by
no means an ordinary volume. The
quartet of writers are Lady Jeune,
Mrs. Flora Annie Steel, Miss Marie
Corelli, and Susan, Countess of
Malmesbury. There lias evidently
been no "getting together" of the dis
tinguished authors for the purpose of
comparing notes before writing the
book, for the opinions differ widely,
and the writers do not hesitate to
speak their minds freely regarding the
writing of the rest of the four.
One fact concerning the book that
has been seized upon with avidity by
its critics is that the only one of the
writers to take Cupid in her arms and
pet the little god, is Marie Corelli,
who is also the only unmarried one
of the four. This strikes the London
critics as being a peculiarly rich hit
of irony, and they are making the
most of it. Miss Corelli refers with
lofty scorn to the ideals of some of
her unmarried friends, and lias such
advanced ideas on the subject herself
that it seems a pity that she should
ever spoi 1 these by a practical exper
ience of married life. Miss Coreliia’s
view is expressed in this statement:
“I want you to refuse to make your
bodies and souls the trafficable ma
terial of vulgar hustkering. I want
you to give yourselves ungrudgingly,
fearlessly, without a price, or any
condition whatsoever, to the man you
truly love, and abide by the results.
If love is love indeed, no regret can
be possible,”
The other three, Lady Jeune, Mrs.
Steel and the Countess of Malmes
bury, undertake to set each other
right in the condescending way pe
culiar to the high horn British dame,
who patronizes the world with un
ruffled good nature and is seldom
disturbed in her self-conceit. “Lady
Jeune,” says Susan, Countess of
Malmesbury, “writes from the practi
cal standpoint of a woman who lias a
wide and intimate knowledge of the
special class which she describes, but
she confines herself to do that alone.”
Mrs. Steel, again, is snubbed by the
same controversialist who told that
she is “more conservant with the
matrimonial affairs of our eastern
than our western sisters.”
The antagonist that Miss Corelli
finds most worthy of her steel is the
lady of that name. Mrs. steel takes
the stand that marriage is as much
devoid of romance as the most or
dinary business of life. Mrs. steel
looks at the world of women through
lorgnettes that have been turned on
much misery, matrimonial and oth
erwise, in their time, and the conclu
sion she arrives at is this: “Com
pare it (the love match) with the po
sition which our present system con
demns, which nine out of ten worn
en would be ashamed to confess. I
do not expect intense personal grat
ification, but I wish to marry, to have
a home and children, to take my sjhare
in the glory and toil, and here is my
chance. If you come to analyze this,
you will find not only that it brings
with It a far higher ideal of life, but
that it leaves us with something more
of a foundation for marriage than a
mutual physical and mental attract
ion; an attraction which the individ
ual experience of nearly every man
ami woman in the world teaches
them is evanescent.”
It is only right to say that the
| commonsense critics side with Mrs.
j Steel. However much it may grate
|on the sensitive nerves of the ro
] rnance hunter, it is felt by the ma
jority of people in practical England
I that where the choosing is left to the
j man, and the girl has no voice in the
matter until she is asked to use her
i voice in saying “yes" or “no"—that
; the girl is apt after waiting a reason
able time, to say to herself: “Here
if I don’t accept the first offer that
comes along I shall be left in the
race altogether.” So she goes to the
altar with a man for whom she has
little regard, and the novelty of mar
riage gone, she is left with nothing
but the loveless life. As to the poor
man who is carried off in this un
principled manner, the four ladies
who write “The Modern M arriage
Market” are silent. He seems to
have been left out of their calcula
tions altogether. The man’s side of j
the question is now awaited with in
terest by those who have read the
woman's advice to woman.
