A Hasty Marriage.

Imp obable as it may seem to some |
the statement we are about to make
is absolutely true. The incident oc-
Cured in Juniata county. only few
weeks ago. A rather good-loosing |
stranger cams TO the neighborhood,
peddling spectacles. Arriving at the
house of Mr,--(Smith We shall call
HIM, for shor.), he exhibited his stock
to the old lady. She tried several,
and, fnally, one suited her exactly,
but she had "no money to buy with
Peddler pressed her to buy She re
iterated .ho fact that che had no mon.
cy, but jokingly remarked, Tll trade
one Of my daughters for par ofspcc-
tnclcs.' Upon this tho eldest Of the
ltwCgirlsspoke up-"You needn't node
me, mother for l won't have him"
Thereupon the peddler turned to
the younger and said, "Well will you
have me 2' The answer was promptly
"Yesl" Accordingly the spcctacles
were handed over, and arrangements
were at once made for the wedding.--
That night the happy pair (who had
mover seen each other before that day)
were united in the holy bonds Of mat
rimony by Esquire i. A short honey
moon Of three days passed pleasantly
enough, the peddeer going out on q
trading expedition each morning and
returning faithfully in the evening
All seem delighted, the old folks at
well as the young, with the aimaOIs and
apparently perfect gentleman Que
or two nights he absented himself, bu
made satisfactory explanation of th'
circumstance, and besides ma de addi-
tlonal amends by presenting his wife {
sum of money suiiicientio Duy nev
dress and a pair of shoes, both Of whicl
she very much needed. Anothe
night the family root covered the ga,
spectacle man, but that was the last
He tooK hIs departure next morning
as:usual, but failed to return at eve

II has become q sort Of .popular-al'
most nat,onal--fnth that 1t IL not pos

everything. The very name Of liquor
IL held to Le synouomou4 with enjoy

enjoyment of such nh evening has
been anything like that Of few quiet
hours spent at homo with II book or a

the ilIusory nature of the pleasures
themselves would be undenINble also
IL the persons who indulge in them did

No, you don't. You postpone then
until you have purgcd yourself, YOU

YOU pass the hours quietly with bool
