DETROIT'S DIVORCE MILL.
"Only six cities in the United States
have a worse divorce record than De-
troit. In Detroit there is one di-
vorce for every nine marriages."
This astounding statement was made
by Rev. T. W. Young, recently in his
serman on "Divorce and Remarriage,"
at the North Baptist Church, Detroit,
the ninth and last address in a series
on "Marrying and Giving in Marriage,
He said; -
"The growing evil of easy divorce at
the present time is one of the greatest
menaces to our homes, and to human
welfare. The average length of mar-
ried life in the United States before
divorce occurs is just a trifle more than
nine years. On an average one couple
out of every ten become divorced in
some states as low as one out of seven,
Only six other cities in the United
States have a worse divorce record
than Detroit. In Detroit there is one
divorce for every nine marriages. In
1910 there were granted 948 divorces.
In eleven months of 1911 there were
granted 1,002 divorces. On January 1,
1910, there were pending before the
courts of Michigan 16,046 petitions for
divorce, of this number 5,596 petitions
were filled during that year. On an
average, in Michigan, nine divorces are
granted every day of the week. The
divorce problem of Michigan is also the
problem of other states and concerns
the whole nation.
"The Windsor marriage mill produces
grist for Detroit divorce mill. Almost
every city has its "Gretna Green" to
which superficial and silly people go to
begin their ill-considered married life
and then later fly to the divorce court
to get their silly deed undone. The
already lax divorce laws are loosely ad-
ministered by some of the courts. Di-
vorces are easily obtained on trivial
and inconsequential grounds. This fact
is responsible for many divorces. The
fact that Less than two per cent. of the
applications for a divorce are denied is
a serious commentary upon the records
of the divorce courts,"
[Stratford Beacon.]
Ontario Liberals are regaining activ-
ity and courage. This was shown at
the annual meeting of the Reform As-
sociation of Ontario held in Toronto .on
Tuesday of last week. The meeting
was privileged in having both the Do-
minion and the Provincial leaders pres-
ent to enthuse those in attendance.
The veteran chieftain, Sir Wilfrid Lau-
rier, could not but be in an optimistic
mood as he had just returned from a
triumphant tour through this Province,
and this spirit of enthusiasm and re-
turning hope seems to have communi-
cated itselt to the meeting, just as it
has communicated itself to Liberals
everywhere thtoughout the Province.
Sir Wilfrid has the same platform in
Ontario as in Quebec, and in the latter
he lost fifteen seats upon this account.
"But since I have become leader of the
Liberal party it has become my con-
stant endeavor to stand upon grounds
which I could defend in Quecec or in
Ontario, and upon which I could appeal
to all British subjects," declared Sir
Wilfrid. Though he had lost these
seats, he said he had nothing to regret,
but would do it again to -morrow and
win back upon it. Sir Wilfrid is false-
ly charged with having one policy for
one Province and another for another.
The consistency of his policy and the
inconsistency of that of his opponents
is bound in time to win back for him a
large share of support in Ontario.
Mr. Rowell, leader of the Ontario
Opposition, received an exceedingly
cordial reception. He was able to tell
of having accomplished something at
the head of his little band of twenty-
two in the Legislature. Sir James
Whitney, who professed to be so im-
movable, had yielded to the pressure of
the Opposition and abandoned the pol-
icy of placing the Hydro -Electric ser-
vice under a Government to adopt a
more progressive policy in regard to
Northern Ontario, to nominate a Com-
mission to inquire into the question of
an eight-hour day for underground min-
ers, and to propose more advanced
temperance legislation. In the matter
of tax reform Sir James Whitney had
remained obdurate, but had yielded to
pressure in regard to better measures
for the public health, and promised
next session to bring down an adequate
measure for compensation for injuries
to workmen. Mr. Rowell intimated
that he would continue to fight Sir
James Whitney on the question of
usurping the powers of Parliament in
regard to the expenditure of the $5,-
0)0,000 grant to Northern Ontario until
those rights were restored. Mr, Row-
ell has made such a good record for
himself during his first session in the
Legislature, and presents such a pro-
gressive policy that Liberals every-
where in the Province are rallying back
to the standard of their party, while
other electors are becoming tired of
the unprogressive and domineering pol-
icy of Sir James Whitney.
Mr. George Jeffrey, farmer, was in-
stantly killed on a Michigan Central
crossing in Mersea township, when his
runaway horses were struck by a spec-
ial.
Geo. Chambers of Blyth is trying a
new experiment. He is in the coal
business and finds he can get all the
furnace coal he wants but very little
nut coal. He therefore has engaged a
stone -breaker owned by the town of
Clinton and is going to see if he cannot
cut up furnace coal into stove coal.

HUNGARIAN GOVERNMENT FARM.
Prof. Price, of the Ohio College of
Agriculture, writing in the Breeders'
Gazette, of Chicago, says the Hungar-
ian Government owns a 40,000 acre
farm, valued at $200 per acre, which
represents a total investment of $12,-
000,000. This farm was first establish-
ed in 1785, the principal object at that
time being the production of horses for
military purposes. This is one of the
chief objects of the farm still. The
foundation stock of these horses, is
found in the Arabian and English thor-
oughbred. There are between two and
three thousand horses on the farm at
present of which 500 are brood mares
and about 50 stallions. In recent years
the farm has been used for the produc-
tion of a superior class of stock in other
lines as well as horses. There are 2,000
pure bred cattle on the farm, principal-
ly of the Simenthal breed, the founda-
tion stock of which was obtained from
Switzerland. Bulls 16 to 18 months of
age are sold from the farm for the pur-
pose of improving stock in the hands
of private holders, at around $150 each.
Three thousand three hundred acres
of the farm is devoted to growing of
sugar beets. There is a hemp factory
off the property which uses up the pro-
duct of 1,500 acres of hemp. There is
a brick factory also, which turns out
two to three million bricks a year.
The total number of people employed
on the place is 10,000, and the estab-
lishment has its own shcools and
churches, seventeen teachers and three
ministers being regularly employed.
The farm yields a profit of 5 per
Cent, on the investment which is better
than is obtained in the average big
private estate in Hungary.

quarter millions to construct.

FACTS ABOUT TYPHOID FEVER.
By a physician in London Advertiser,
Typhoid fever is due to the typhoid
bacillus.
Man is the only animal that has it.
The bacilli find their way into the hu-
man body exclusively through the
mouth. Milk and water are two of the
chief typhoid carriers.
Air or wound infections do not have
to be considered. Therefore food -and
particularly raw foods -should be care-
fully guarded.
Typhoid may last from four to six
weeks and much longer if there are
complications. Those usually met with
are;
Secondary infections, particularly
pneumonia, inflammation of veins, in-
flammation of glands, perforations and
secondary peritonitis and hemorrhages.
A tired teeling and some aching are
usually the first symptoms which ap-
pear after the bacilli have been in the
intestines at least ten days.
Constipation and fever follow, and
when the temperature is taken it will
probably be over 100.
It generally takes a weak from the
time the fever starts to be fairly cer-
tain of the diagnosis.
A person having typhoid fever should
get the best medical and nursing ser-
vice he can, and then obey orders
absolutely.
Equanimity is necessary when one
has typhoid fever. There should be no
worrying and no fretting. The attitude
should be one of accepting and trust-
ing, and if you have secured the best
of aid it will be comparatively easy to
follow this course.
The old-fashioned, long-drawn-out
typhoid has practically been eliminated
through precaution and care. The next
step is to prevent the disease by remov-
ing the causes.
Then what is the man to do who has
not had the disease and proposes to
keep clear of it?
In ordinary times be careful of the
water.
Do not drink any raw milk unless you
are sure the source is safe.
Do not let others peel fruits and
vegetables to be eaten raw if you can
do it yourself. If you cannot prepare
them yourself and are not sure how 'the
work is done or by whom, eat the cook-
ed vegetables and fruit,
Cook oysters and clams unless cer-
tain about them.
Do not eat food where flies abound.
Wash your own hands before eating.
Insist that others should have clean
hands when preparing the food.
If a cook is employed see that he or
she has not had typhoid recently (with-
in the last six months), or has not been
in places where there was typhoid.
Long before the British preference
was suggested by the Laurier adminis-
tration the Conservative leaders sought
to have the old German and Belgian
treaties denounced in order to establish
fiscal preferences in favor of Great
Britain and the other British communi-
ties. British ministers refused to de-
nounce the old treaties and Canada was
helpless until the Laurier administra-
tion came into office and Great Britain
finally agreed to terminate those dis-
abling fiscal conventions. - Toronto

My Digestion
Is Now Good
And 1 Feel Like a Young Man Slnoe
Using Dr. Chase's Kidney -
Liver Piiis.
Prof, A. T. Smith.
What a horrible condition the di-
gestive system gets into when the
liver becomes bluggish and the
bowels constipated. The poisonous
'waste matter is thrown back into the
blood stream and finds its way into
all parts of the body, causing paint
and aches and feelings of fatigue and
misery.
It Is wonderful how quickly Dr.
Chase's Kidney -Liver PIIIe sweep the
,poisons from the digestive system
and enable the organs of digestion to
resume their natural functions.
Prot. A. T. Smith, 1 Mt. Charles
street, IVIontreal, and formerly of Bos-
ton, Mass., writes: --"I suftered for
many years from bad digestion, con-
stipation and horrible backaches. I
have been treated by many doctors
Without any results. One day a
friend in Boston advised the use of
Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver P1115. Atter
using two boxes I noticed !treat tm-
provement, and atter the fourth box
I was completely cured. My diges•

Text, Mark vii, 37 --Commentary
Prepared by Rev, D. M. Stearns.
Departing from the region of Tyre
and Sidon, where He bad comforted
the mother's heart and honored and
commended her faith, He returned to
the sea of Galilee, a journey of forty or
fifty miles, but nothing Is said of the
journey. How little we think of His
long walks from one part of the coun-
try* to another. It is easy to travel tui
our day, and there is a vast amount of
it done, but very few do it on foot and
for Him, yet I do know some mission,
cries who are very like Him in this re-
spect. Verses 32 to 37 of our lesson
are recorded only by Mark and tell• of
the healing of a deaf and dumb man.
Some are dumb because they cannot
speak and others are dumb because
they will not speak.
It is sometimes wise for those whop
can both hear and speak to be as if
they were both deaf and dumb (Pa.
xx::viii, 13). Too many are dumb be-
cause they do not feel constrained to
speak. Their remedy may be found MI
Ps. xxxix, 3; Ezek. Ili, 27; Jer. xx, 8, 9.
If any are inclined to plead slowness,
of speech or the inefficiency of youth
they may be helped by Ex. iv, 12; Jer.
i, 7-0. All need that which our Lord.
commended in Acts i, 8; see a result in
Acts iv, 31. All may conte unto Him,
and He knows at once a right way for
each. His way with this particular
man was unique, but it must have
been the right way for him. He took
Iiim aside from the multitude. He of-
ten tales us aside that He may cause
us to hear or see or know something
He could not otherwise teach us. It la
blessed to be taken aside with Him. I
like the verse which says that "wet
should Iive together with Him" (1C
Thess. v, 10), We have read of many
being healed by touching Him or tbei
heir of His garment, but see His fin-
gers on this plan's ears and tongue,
and instantly he could hear and speak
plainly. Was the power in His touch"
or in the words "Be opened," or in
both? More important for me to bel
able to say that He hath touched me
and hath spoken to me, and taught mei
to say "He bath done all things well."
Just here Matthew records that He
went up into a mountain and sat down,
and great multitudes came to Him
bringing the lame, blind, dumb, maim-
ed and others and cast them at His
feet, and He healed them, and they
glorified the God of Israel (Matt, xv,
30, 31). When Israel came out of
Egypt there was not one feeble among
their tribes, and when the kingdom
comes the inhabitant shall not say, "/
am sick." "There shall be no more
death, neither sorrow nor crying, nei-
ther shall there be any more • pain."
"They shall hunger no more, neither
thirst any more; neither shall the sun
light on them nor any heat," (Ps. cv,
37; Isa. xxxlii, 24; xlix, 10; Rev. vii, 16;
xxi, 4). Do you wonder that Jesus told
them of such a kingdom as He fed
them and healed them? What can we
think of those who know of such a,
kingdom and are doing nothing to
make It known to others who might
be glad to become inheritors of it if
they only knew about it and knew hove
to become heirs to it? .
Returning to the record in Mark, we
read that the multitudes had been with
Him three days with nothing to eat,
and some had come long distances, so
He had Compassion upon them and
said to the disciples, "If I send them
away fasting they will faint by the
way." Did He really care and does He
care if we are faint and weary? Oh,
yes, He cares: I know he cares. It
matters to Him even about sparrows,
and he clothes the lilies. The disciples)
seem surprised at Hill remarks and
ask, Whence can >A man satisfy these
with bread here in the wilderness?
Well, that depends upon the man. An
ordinary man could not, but who is this
man? Had they forgotten that ao re-
cently they bad taken food from His
hands to more than 5,000 People and
had seen Him control anti,' subdue t
great storm? Yes, it is the old story
of Pe. lxxvitl: "They forgot,His'work5r
and His wonders that He had showed
them. They maid, Can God furnish a
table in the wilderness?" Having as-
certained that they had wren loaves
and n fest small fishes, He took them
and gave thanks and broke them and
gave to the disciples to set before the
people, and they did all eat and were
filled.
