BOLD STROKE FOR A HUsBAND-A
rather singular case Of forgery has just oc.
Cured in New Orleans. A young French
girl, who had recently arrived with her
mother and sister from Paris, was repor ted
to have a large amount of gold on depos-
tie with a city banker. She was fair and
of course had many admirers, among
them a verdant young merchant whom she
marred.-On the day following the mar
rage the happy bride groom deposited
with banker note for $4,000, signed
by one of the wealthiest merchants in The
city. This note, which lie had received
from his Young and beautiful bride, ne de-
sired 10 have collected, and draft for the
amount remirlcd 10 him at New York for
which destination the happy couple took

note was not discovered 10 be forgery un.

Her eyes to heaven she raiscth
In agony of prayer.

Where want and darkness reign,
A precious child-her only

And death alone can free him
She feels that this must be

They heed not mourulng there.

Chide man for being angry when he is
angry, what viii you gel by it, save some
Of the foam Of his oVertlowlng rage cast

cool season of man's passions, when all
is quiet and temperate within, for then there
is the greatest probability Of rightly lntiu-
ecclng him.
