Will al III Oh tk1uWpn 10 me- and
perhaps, Waiter, you can now understand
what it was that drew me from the first
toward this woman and child, and Why
the little creature has inspired me with
such . deep affection. It was the myste-
rious and subtle instinct of kinship, of
blood relationship, for this haby-boy is
my brothers child;" and with these
words she seized the little fellow, clssped
him to her bosom, and wept copiously.
The matter was clear to me now at
last; but who on earth could have ex-
pected such . denouement, or that she
should have been led to the only SPOT

Fashionable circles in Covington new
er were more thoroughly stirred up than
when it was announced, yesterday
morning, that Miss Blanche Worthing-
ton, one of our most beautiful and at
tractive bellies, had been united in mar
riage to Mr.. Ben. v. jackson, of Park
ersburg, w. Va. Agood deal of surprise
was expressed at the fact that the cere-
mony was performed at the Burnett
House, Cincinnati, by an Episcopal
minister, as it is well known that for 3
number of months past the fair bride
has been receiving religious instruction
from the Roman Catholic priesthood of
of this city in anticipation of protesting
that faith. A streak of romance, out
side of the usual path, is connected with
the affair. We are told that the young
lady, whose beauty is equaled only by
her accomplishments, had for some
time been betrothed to Col. Byrnes, of
Cincinnati, and their wedding was ap-
pointed for this week, previous to which
the lady was to be received into the
Catholic Church. Col. Byrnes wrote
note to Mr.. jackson, his particular
friend, inviting him TO visit Cincinnati,
and be his guest during the May Festi-
val. The invitation was accepted. Mr..
Jackson arrived in due time and was
introduced by the Colonel to his afi-
anced on last Thursday. 1t resulted in
the spontaneous outburst of new affec-
tion-a striking case of genuine love at
first sight, which resulted in q union for
life within 48 hours thereafter. An in
teresting feature of the occasion was the
giving away of the bride at the hands
Of the gentleman to whom she had 80
long been affianced-a most marvellous
exhibition of iron nerve and self-sacri-
nee. Mrs. Jackson will carry to her
new home the best wishes and benedic-
tons of a host of friends and admirers.

People generally desire long life and good
health. Sickness and premature death are a.
most always due to violations OF the laws that
govern our physical being, and Of which the
masses are Ignorant II men knew Detser
they would do better; but how can they avoio
are made through the public shoots to give
each child q so-called common English educar
ton, yet the children are permitted to grow
ND and enter upon the responsible duties OF
active life, profoundly ignorant Of the struc-
ture Of their own bodies, and the laws Of ply
steal being upon which their health and lives
depend. They are sent to school and crammed
with arithmetic, grammar, and geography, by
teachers who, in many instances, have never
studied physiology and hygiene. They are
taught to locate the mountains and trace the
rivers of foreign countries, but are never
taught to locate the vital organs and glands Of
their own bodies, or trace the veins, arteries,
and nerves, in their various ramifcations.
They are instructed in the flow OF the tides,
and the course Of the ocean currents, and the
philosophy of winds and storms; but they
have no correct conception of the relative ef-
fects upon their health of breathing pure or
impure air, nor has their attention ever been
called to the importance OF keeping their
bodies clean and healthy by regular bathing.
The criminality Of such neglect in teaching
becomes apparent when We consider that the
masses, ignorantly violating the laws OF
health, bring upon themselves sickness, suffer
ing and death, that might otherwise be avoid
ed. In this condition of things We welcome
into being any work that is calculated to i'm
part to the masses knowledge Of the struc-
lure of their own bodies, the laws Of health,
and the importance Of observing those laws.
We find DIR. Pierce's Common Sense Medical
Adviser to be just such work 1t Is physio-
logical and pathological, and the major part
of it should be converted into textbook for
the use of common schools. Its careful study
will enable the healthy to preserve their health,
and the sickly to regain health. Every parent
should read it, and as their children become OF
proper age instruct them in the all-important
truths it contains. Were this done, much
suffering and premature death would be pre-
vented. and many youth saved from life of
shame and RIGHTEOUSNESS The book contains

Tommy is ~ years old. His sister
Mary is sweet Is. The other morning
Mary accosted her mother with, ssMa,
see what lot of stuff I found in Tom
my's pockets" And she deposited on
the table the following articles, to-wit:

chalk, two dried fish-worms, a sling
shot, piece of India rubber, two corks,
a fractured comb, piece of iquorice-
root, a song book, two medals, and q
juvenile land tortoise. Tommy looked
thoughtfully, as the contents of his
pockets we're deposited before the eyes
Of his mother, and sullenly remarked
that it swas none of SIS business, and
he just wanted her to let his trousers
alone"
Next day Tommy captured the out
side pocket of his sisters dress, and
carrying the contents to his mother,
sarcastically observed, in the presence
of Mary: 'tMa, jus. see what q lot of

masse silk of the pattern of her friend
Lucy's new dress, an artificial flower,
horse-hair ring, long brown hair en-
tangled in hunk of taffy, and slip of
paper containing directions for hand

Tommy placed the last article on the
table and slid from the room with q grin
of triumph on his roguish face. His
sister made an Intellectual grab for him,
and as he passed into the street he heard
her voice calling, "You nasty little brat,
