Scandal at Saratoga.

1t seems that respectable and well-to-do
young grocer of Philadelphia, named Tumble
stone, became enamored of a young lady
belonging to wealthy and aristocratic fami-
ly named Levy. "Mamie," as she was called,
returned the affection of Tumblestone. They
both attended the same church, and were, we
believe, members of the same Sabbath school
but the high-toned mother OF "Mamie," q
widow lady, finding that her daughter was
deeply in love with Mr.. T., the dealer in
coffee and sugar, sought at once to break up
the match. She hustled her daughter off to
Georgia, where she was brought into contact

CHILDREN whose brain development is unu-
sually large in comparison with the body, are
frequently singled out for premature final
resting place. Why is this? Simply because
the functions of the body are too frail to sup
ply the waste going ON in the brain consequent
upon active intelligence. Fellows Compound
Syrup of Hypophosphites is so prepared that it
imparts the vital principle dire city to the brain
while it assists in developing vigorous and ro-

A DELIGHTFUL SURPRIsE.-Ladies whose
faces are clouded by superficial discolorations,
and who have resolved to try HAGAN's MAGNo-
LA BALM as II remedy, have no idea of the
welcome surprise they will receive from their
mirrors after few applications of that health
full purifier of the complexion. If at ell ex-
citable, they will scream with rapture on be-
holding the change; whether the blemish it is
desired to remove be sallowness, blotches, pim-
pies, freckles, roughness, or an unnatural pal
lor, it is bound to disappear under the tonic
operation of this wonderful agent. To say that
the blemish disappears, does not, however,
convey any idea of the effect produced oy this
celebrated beautifier. The unsightly unge'
whether diffused over the whole couhtenahee
or in spots or patches, is replaced by aunitorm,
nearly bloom, to which no description can do
justice. aug '-o0Ui"'S"A'

him just how things stood, and the two had
quietly gone over to Camden and been made
one flesh. Without consummating fully the
marital pledges which made them husband
and wife, except to secure the documents
which made their marriage legal, the twain
separated, returning to their individual homes.
This was on the first of July, and scarcely
had they got back to Philadelphia when the
mother arrived. But it was too late. Her
child was married, and the son of Georgia
was discomfitted. What next? A trip to
Saratoga was proposed, and the young Geor-

to do it was this: He told the mother that,
inasmuch as Mamie and Tumblestone had
not dwelt together at all as husband and wife,
that it was nothing but paper marriage, and
not binding. The weak and wicked mother
fell into the trap, and Mamie was badgered
and cajoled and deceived till at last she yield

Mamie and her Georgia lover were formally
married, and thus made parties, the one to
felony and the other to the crime of bigamy.
OF course the antecedents in the case yGre
kept concealed from the officiating clergy
man. About this time Tumblestone, s1s-
pecting something wrong, came on from Phil
adelphia, and was confronted with the facts,
stated above. His legal wife had committed
bigamy by marrying his Georgia rival. A le-
gal examination followed before one of our
Justices, and the fact elected that both the
mother and the Georgia man knew of Miss
Levy's marriage to Tumblest0ne. This was
enough to make the act criminal All the
parties left town at once, and legal proceed
ings have been commenced in the case. The
