Tho woods arc SIN as gardens lul Of flowers;
The leaves burn brightly in the smoky haze
Crimson and scarlet gold, and russetbruwn,
How rich The uuts Of the So autuinnal days
The air seems scented with the purpnnr crane,
II sins the blood like to the upenod wine,
II tells us OF the flushed harvest ume-
The finished hour is ule real hour divine.
So may our lives have Indian summer tides;
OF mellow suns, bright leaves. and golden grain,
Where death itselis more beautiful than lic
And through the haze Is seen the eternal gain.

We get every day many letters from low
ers. They come from all parts OF the coun-
try, and exhibit the delightful fact that
though the world grows older every day
the passion of love is as strong now as it
was in the Garden Of Eden.
The most interesting questions which
come to us just now concern the prOpriety
of the intermarriage of cousins. This is n
subject which has engaged the attention of
doctors for long time past, and II well de-
serves treatment in The Sun. The first
letter is from young man, and il thus
worded:
SIR Seeing you such good advice the lovers IN
TIM SuS and being In trouble my self come YOU Tor
advice am young man twenty one years old About
two years ago became most devotedly attached 10 my
COUSIN, charming girl of nliecn. All this time have
kent my love concealed | have never brenthod the
slightest suspicion OF II 10 living soul She being my
cousin, have never minated to her that loved her
more than the ties OF relationship would allow, thinking
witha that 1t was mere boyish passion, aud would
soon wear away The sad experience OF two years how
ever has taught me that this Is not the Every eE
tort to subdue my passion has but added fuel to the flame
and now am desperately IN love with cousin what
do You think OF cousins marryingr Please advise me
what course to pursue. and you will possess the lasting
gratitude Ola ioUsG FARnKh

The next letter is the joint production Of
two young ladies', and is thus expressed:
SIN We have been constant readers of your paper for
several years, and being IN trouble, You

We certainly shall not throw the above
letter away, but now print it conspicuously
in The sun.
Is it proper for these young people to fall
in love with their cousins? Is it proper for
cousins to marry? These are very impor-
tant questions, and II we should treat them
thoroughly we would have ogo back to the
foundations Of society. 1t may, however,

OF having 10 80 through with each nrm. the
argument on the need OF an armory covering

is from among eleven prisoners who

jail at noon time. Joseph Mitchell, the
son, says that Lewis has son named
Harmon, of whom lac is very fond aud
be thinks that was what suggested
the idex of his assuming the name Of
George w. Harmon. He may have
lived in Lewis county under that name
for eight months, but that argues moth
ing: for Lewis county is . wilderness
and less travel goes through there than
any portion of the Territory. We learn
that Sheriff Aiken telegrsphed Wyckoff

Sheriff cannot do, and Mr.. Aiken ought
to know it. It is his duty to obtain a
requisition for Lewis from Gov. Chad
