WOMAN JUDGE MARfliES MANY
Feminine Jurist Makes It a Rule te
Omit the Word "Obey" from
Nuptial Ritual.
Bfloit, Kan—So popular have b>
com*.- the marriage ceremonies per-
formed by Probate Judge Alary H.
Cooper. * ho, by the way. is the only
womau prob;.-- judge in the United
Stat«-.- bo far as known, that It haa
become almost a fad in Mitchell coun-
ty for young women to insert the pro
▼is© that Judge Cooper shall officiate
before they bluahingly Ray 'yes to
the oleadings of would-be benedict#.
Judge Cooper s popularity has com*
about through the omission of tha
word obey when tying the nuptial
knot
I attribute the great increase of
marriage,. j„ this office," explained
judge Cooper the other day, "to an
effort on my part to get away from
the hackneyed, machine like way tn
which civil ceremonies are generally
performed.
I attempt to make the ceremonies
as impressive as I know how Should
a giggling pair come before me, they
are severely reproved and made to
understand that being joined in wed-
lock is a most serious affair and not
to be taken lightly "
"Is your service different than moat
of the others?"
Yes. 1 believe It differs slightly.
For instance. | have eliminated the
word obey' for the bride
I a*k the*bridegroom If he will love
cherish and keep her until separated
by death. The bride is asked practi-
cally the same thing If either or
both keep these promises, there is tio
need for the word obey .'
"II she doexn t love him she won't
obey him. She might pretend to, but
she won't.
"And, by the way, this office doesn't
believe In tips. It accepts only the
legal fee for the license or the cere-
mony. 1 presume there is nothing
wrong in accepting additional money
from an over-zealous, love-saturated
bridegroom, but 1 believe that the
law intends that J shall lake no more
than set forth in the statutes
After having been appointed by
Gov Hoch to (ill the unexpired term
of tier husband, who died in office,
Mrs. Cooper was reflected by th>»
largest majoority of any one on tha
ticket.

More than once a difference in the
fashion of wearing the hair has ds-
noted a division of factions. We have
the well known examples of the round-
heads and the cavaliers. To the for-
mer, long, curly hair was an abomina-
tion. they hated the flowing locks of
the gay cavaliers, and they regarded
such tresses as a symbol of ungodll*

I Vn the other hand, the cavaliers re-
garded the closely cropped hair of the
^tern-visaged roundheads as a symbol
of narrow-mindedness, blgofry and
cant.
At the time of the conquest the
English wore their hair long both
upon the head and the nppor lip,
while the chin was kept bare The
Normans, on the contrary, wore their
hair very short, so that Harolds
spies reported to the king: "The host
did almost seem to be priests, because j
i they had all their face and both lipa ,
shaven "
After the invasioq the difference In
appearance of the victors and van-1
quished was accentuated by the tyran- j
ny which compelled the Saxons to j
grow all their hair. In later days the,'
Saxons, ho far as regarding it as a
Mgn of severity, took good care to let j
their hair grow on purpose effectual-!
iy to distinguish themselves from the
-Vormans.
The fashion of wearing long hair!
spread, and caused almost endless
bother between the people and the j
clergy, who based their objection upon ;
St. Paul s declaration "that long hair
was a shatiie unto a man."
The pope decreed that long-liaired i
people should be excommunicated
when living, and should not be prayed |
for wh'*n dead. From nearly every!
pulpit the evil of long hair was pub-
lished. and the wearers were cursed.!
All this was in vain, fashion laughed
at It, and king and subject wore ring-
lets in defiance of the shorn priests.
This war between the longhaired
and the cropped soon had serious con-
sequences. There were all kinds of
tumult, some of which had far reach-
ing results, but it was in France
where the question of the length of
the hair altered history.
Louis VII. unlike the disobedient
English, obeyed th» injunctions of the
church and cut off all his flowing
curls, until he resembled a monk in-
stead of a king
This caused the greatest consterna-
tion at the court, and the lively KIea-
nor of Guienne did nothing but make
fun of her lord to the court's gallants.
In fact, she lost all affection for the
shorn sovereign whom she looked
npon, with contempt.
Then came all manner of differ-
ences. terminating in divorce and the
loss of Guinne and Poitou to the
French sovereigns. The fickle Elea-
nor married the long haired Henry.j
who afterward reigned as Henry FT i
of England and she bestowed upon
him those rich provinces of France.'
Had Louis VII not cut off bis hair the!
history of the world would have been
quite different.
Peter the Gt.at was a monarch who
decided that the Russians should fee
shav. n under penalty of a heavy tax
for such as preferred to *ro» beards.
The receipt which was given for 3is
tax consisted of a copper token bear-
ing a hairy face on the one side and
the date on the other. No man wear-
ing a beard could enter a town unless
be produced one of these borodovala."

Marmalades.
Marmalades require great care while
i cooking because no moisture is added j
! to the fruit and sugar. If the marma-
lade is made from berries the fruit
should be rubbed through a sieve to{
remove the seeds. If large fruit is j
used have it washed, pared, cored and i
quartered.
,Measure tbe fruit and sugar, allow-
ing one pint of sugar to each quart
of fruit.
Rinse the preserving kettle with
^.cold water that there may be a slight
coat of moisture on the sides and
bottom. Put alternate layers of fruit
.-and sugar in the kettle, having the
first layer fruit. Heat slowly, stirring
frequently. While stirring break up
the-fruit'as much as possible. Cook
about two hours, then put in small
sterilized jars.
