WEDDING IN HIGH LIFE.
The papers arc filled with &C
counts of a gorgeous "wcddins il
high life" which has offered a,
immense deal of amusement in til
clubs and among the men abou
town. The lady in the case is
daughter of a very wealthy man
who has something over q millio,
in her own right, and the groom il
a young man from a Western State
whose only fortune was his voice
and a handsome face and figure
The voice, very rich tenor, by tn,
way, has brought him $500 u year
in an uptown church, which sun
has had to take care of his person
for that was all that he had. Tn,
lady is past her hcy-day, and has
the additional disadvantage of not
being sylph in proportions. Blu,
the million and over! Half that
sum would convert much ugliel
woman into an angel, and the
young singer found her defects in
person no drawback whatever. Els.
pecially were they not noticeable,
after she settled upon him an in
come of $4,000 per year for life,
and made over to him 100000 ia
his own right. That proceeding
covered all her defects, and he was
led like a lamb to the-nuptial al
tar. From this time out the gor-
geous rooms of the lady at the
SWEETEST of the swell hotels, will
have two occupants. Rather n
good speculation counted as spec
nlation--for young man with only
$500 per year! But then think of
his being pointed out everywhere
IS the husband of the rich Miss
Hroesus? Think of how his fellows,
Who havn't married million and
'vcr, will Sncer at him, and turn ND
heir noses at him, for doing what
hey would give all their earthly
possessions to be able to do. 1t
'ill be hard lines for the young
nan, and possibly he hes more
han earned his money. He pro-
esses to be happy, and swears, as
e drinks his wine-wine is L late
abit with hiu--that he actually
ives her.
BILE GLASS.
Some years ago Gen. Pleasauton
an article in which the
sscrtion was made that rheumatism
nd a dozen other diseases could |

cams OF the sun to shine through
ass alternate white and blue, and
IL upon tho afflicted parts; that
'getablcs grown under blue glass
ould produce infinitely more than
at exposed in the natural way;
I'd that animals calves, pigs,
'ickcns, etc., kept under blue glass
'uld grow twice as fast as when
any other light. A few weeks
% the article was reproduced, and
is time it took. The city papers
blished, it with lot of wonder
