A QrANr ADvERrisENENT.-Th Nechanies
Free Pres, of November s, 1928, contains the
following advertisement, which it says it copied
from late Dayton (Ohio) paper. 1t seems
that greater inducements were held out to bach
elOr> thirty years ago, to enter into the bonds of
matrimOny, than are presented in this progress
sive age;
7"Ge Notieel-Eliah Slider, Minister Oftbe
Gospel, wishes to inform the public that he has
had authority to socmnize marriage, from the
year 1927, in March, and desires part of the
patronage. Ifthey will grant him their custom
he promises to marry for one dollar, if not tn
ken more than five miles from home, or seven
ty five cents at his house. He will be found
one mile from Daytown, on the Cincinnati road,
Jefferson Street Also, the said Slider will
pay the highest price for linen and cotton Rags
delivered at his store, either in Goods or Cash
Assuming that rags were worth five cents
per-pound at that time. for twenty pounds of
linen or cotton cast off garments, two happy
hearts might be united in the silken bonds of
Hymen.

TmE Cesr or MODERN BELLE.-I saw her
dancing in the ball. Around her snowy brow
were set $1,000; such would have been the an
swcr Of any jeweler to the question. "What
are those damonds?" With the gentle undu-
lation Of her bosom there rose and fell exactly
$3.50 The sum bore the guiSe of brOach Of
gold and enamel Her fairy form was invested
in ten halieaglcs, represented by slip of lilac
satin, and this was OVerlaid by $500 more in
two skirts of white lace. Tastefully down each
side of the latter were five dollars, which SO
many bows of purple ribbon had come to. The
lower margin Of the $500 skirts were edged with
eleven additional haEeagles, :he value of some
eight yards of silver fringe, quarter of a yard
depth. Her taper waist, taking zone and clasp
together / calculated TO be confined by at least
$50. Ber 1elicately-rounded arms, the glove
Of spotlesS kid being added to the gold bracelet
which encircled the little wrist, may be said to
have been adorned with $ll O75. and putting the
silk and satin at the lowest figure, l should say
she wore So 80 on her feet Thus, altogether,
was this thing of light, this creature of lowell

sundrieS, in S2S24 20. - ..H. s.s.

A gentlemen, the administrator of the estate
Of Milton Sheldon, mentioned in the body Of the
above note, has kindly presented us the original
! of which it IS copy, with the verita6le sigma
ture, in decent, legible round hand, of Brigham
Young, the apostle of MormondOm, attached
We are informed also that Brigham was n cum
ming manufacturer of old fashioned spinning
wheels, while brace of endorsements on the
back of the note Tcaveal that he had other
occupations, and was pretty much aJaek-Of-all-

Fourteen dollars and twenty-five cents in ma
king picket fence"
'Receiyed on the within two dollars and
eighty cents in framing a. Parks barn."
The latter was evidently what IS called n
''turn," and indicate that Brigham, like Joseph
of old, was carpenter as well as a chair bottom
and spinning wheel maker. In fact his opera
tions were very numerous, but he was best at
camp-meeting where no lack OF industry
could be charged upon him. In singing hymns
and exhorting lie was energetic enough to make
up for all other deficiencies The gentleman TO
whom we are indebted for this note tells us
that he went once to Brigham's house to dun
him. Il was cold, raw, autumnal day. Swim
ging ON the gate he found n red-headed young
one" bright-eyed and healthy. Going into the
house he found Mrs Young with one of those
peculiar rusty old black shawls wrapped round
her, covering over a few Goals upon the hearth.
He stated his errand, but was touched with
sympathy at Mrs. YOung's reply, that he went
away determined to make further effort ~
the case. Said Mrs. Young, "Mr. A., this little
nile of Goals is all the wood have in the house.
