Married Life Is More Profitable Than Being Single Married life is more profitable than being single. There’s no use to dispute this problem now. Bachelor girls and young men might take the tip.

Medora, N. D., March 16. Editor Tribune: As our venerable Justice Robinson finds time in the midst of his cares to give us lessons in astronomy, I will try and give a little talk on history. To begin, we are told that after seven centuries of greatness, Car- thage fell. That as Scipio Agricanus Minor, the conqueror, looked upon the awful spectacle, burst into tears and murmured to himself, as he thought of the fate which had overtaken his own country,—the ‘lines of Homer, in which Hector foretells the doom of Troy. Shall our own ‘fair and beloved land, the government of which was say when kings ceased to govern. He also says that in later days Carthage was governed by 104 magistrates, elected from the better class, and not from the common herd. It might be dents in the land who were highly civilized. We know that before the foundation of Rome, Italy had a high civilization and with whose people the newcomers married. When Queen Elissa landed in Africa she found in- habitants from whom she purchased the land on which the city of Car- thage was built. She cheated the people in the real estate deal, as real estate dealers do today, when she cut the oxhide in strips in order to cover at Jamestown and Plymouth for here were found a land which the feet of civilized man had never trod; a wild- erness indeed with few inhabitants, and those had only advanced in civili- zation as far as the bow and arrow. They found a virgin soil which had| never been turned by the plow; the forests filled with wild men and wild/ beasts; their nearest markets for the comforts of civilized man thousands of miles across a wide sea. It is said that circumstances form man’s na- ture, for the better or for the worse; that self-preservation brings out all that’s great in him. When we read of these brave men and women sailing from Holland in the frail little ves- sel “Speedwell,” for a journey over ay stormy sea, knowing they would land in an unknown country, where would be found scarcely any of the neces- saries of life, nor a friendly hand reached out to bid them welcome, do’ we ever consider what a brave band they were. Read “The Chronicles, of the Pilgrim Fathers,’ which telt of the early struggles of these brave people, thousands of miles from home and kindred; of their hope; their looking to the sea for the sight of a ship from home; of their despair; of the sickness; of their deaths, and of their starvation; of their finding the corn which the Indians had hidden away.
