WEDDING IN HIGH LIFE.
The papers are filed with accounts
of gorgeous "wedding in high life"
which has afforded an immense deal
of amusement in the clubs and
among the men about town. The
lady in the case is the daughter OF
Il very wealthy man, who has some
thing over u million in her own
right, and the groom is u young
man from II Western State, whose
only fortune was his voice, and IA
handsome face and. figure. The
voice, a very rich tenor, by the way,
has brought him $500 year, in an
uptown church, which sum has had
to take care of his person, for that
was all he had. The lady is past
her hey.day, and has the additional
disadvantage of not being sylph
in proportions. But the million

BLUE GLASS.
Some years ago Gen. PleasOntOn
published an article in which the
assertion was made that rheuma.

could be cured by merely permitting
the beams of the sun to shine thro'
glass alternate white and blue, and

vegetables grown under blue glass
would produce infinitely more than
that exposed in the natural way
and that anlmals-calves, pigs.
chickens, etc, kept under blue glass
would grow twice as fast as when

and immediately a demand for blue
glass sprung up that was wonder

blue glass was taken up, and the
