false Representations in regard to the age of the

rage, an Injunction was prayed for restraining
the marriage, and also requiring him 10 return
the license: The application was refused BY the

to enjoih the marriage Of parties who were Of
lawful age to contract marriage; and these per
sons were Of lawful age; and il the license was
ffauduiently obtained from the Ordinary, let

a great deal about hard times in these
days, but AYERS that they do not COM
pare with the times Of twenty-five years
ago. lie gives the following incident as
proof of his assertion:
I'm Jefferson county, in this State,
Mr. Coly Babcock, in 1918, wishing to
purchase two pars of shoes, went to- his
country store, and found that the keep
er had the shoes he desired; one pair
at 80 cents, the other at 70 cents. This
was considered an exorbitant price,
which he declined to pay, but would pc

was distant 50 miles from his residence.
but be shouldered his rifle, put some
corn dodger" and salt in his shot bag.
and started on foot, killing birds for
meat, aud laying at night BY camp fires
of marketers, which were plenty at that
time. Arriving at the Mississippi at
IIlinoistown, Cnow East St Louis he
found that it would cost him fYe cents
to cross the river. He was mortified to
find that he would then be obliged to
break in upon his shoe money, but sue
cumbed at last, went over to the city and
made his purchase Of twopairs Of shoes
at cost of 10 and 60 cents. On return
ing home, he found he had cleared 90
cents. less the terriage, by his trip.
Walking eighty miles to save this
amount may look absurd, but dollars
were scarce, markets distant, the land
without demand, and pork worth one
dollar and fifty cents per hundred
pounds Prairie Farmer.

(Wilson) never saw the horizon look so
alarjuingly blue.
The Worlds correspondent report Of

at Is very apparent from their manger
they are becoming uneasy. Neither
Graut nor his advisers are as sauguiue as
they were few days ago, and are actual
lv alarmed at the development Of the
canvass insNorth Carolina. 1t worries
them Trey dou't like the idea Of the
public knowing that they have sent so
much money there, nor is the news from

was especially downhearted. He was
urged to repair Immediately ia that State
and take the stump. Ia obedience to
this demand he has left tonight
Morton states that matters look dubi-
Gus in Indiana. and they must have
money to use at once to save the State.
He Is more anxious about the Legisla-
ture than about anything else, for that
chooses a United States Senator IN his
place.

and in this. as in ali others, it Is a cry for
money; it is Money or we are lost
