LOVES VAGARIES.

Two wedding couples presented them
selves at the Mayoralty in suburb of
Paris 10 carry out the civil portion of their
fnarriage contract. They ranged them
selves on opposite sides of the Mayors
official throne, and faced one another.
The Mayor was asking question of one
Of the bridegrooms, whose attention was
thus distracted from his bride. On turn
ing around TO look at her when he had
answered the question, hs caught her
making "sheep's eyes" at the bridegroom
opposite. Being of jealous tempera-
mcnt he, laid his hand roughly on her
arm, and said sharply:
"Mademoiselle, which Of the two
brides are you? You are mine, believe;
then cbligo me by confning your glances
TO me-"
The BRIDE was young woman of spir-
it, and ressnting the tone in which the
reprimsnd was made, retorted.
"Ah, Monsieur, if you are jealous al
ready, am likely to lead pleasant LIE
with you ~
The jealous bridegroom made an angry
reply, and then the other bridegroom
must need put his oar in.
"Pah ! Monsieur, why should you
make such fuss because Mademoisele
choose, to favor me with glance ?"
Thereat his bride turned savsgely upon
him, and exclaimed
"Ha, Monsieur, it would seem, then,
that you like to have ladies' make eyes ut
you Now know what to expect from
You but you might, at lcs,t, have had
the decency to keep this proof of your
fsithlessness concealed from me here"
Ard with tins fierce thrust she burst
into tears.
In vain the Mayor attempted to pacify
both parties. The brdegrooms stormed
ut each other, and tho brides, between
their hysterica sobs, mutually accused
each other of perfdy. What was to be
done? At last the Mayor, losing his
temper, cried out {:
Am to proceed with this ceremony,
Dram l not ?"
The two brides, with ono accord
screamed: "No! !"
"Perhap.," .aid the Mayor, whose
wrath had again cooled down, ''you could
arrange matters between yourselves, il
you were left alone. The Clerk will show
you to my private room. l will give you
half an hour"
At the expiration Of that time the par-
ties were summoned to appear again be-
fore the Mayor.
Have you settled your difference. ?"
no asked.
"Yes, Monsieur le Maire," exclaimed
both bridegrooms at once
"Oh, then | may proceed with tho Ger.

And SO it wss-thc jealous bridegroom

lady Of the tickle glancos had taken the
gentleman who liked ladies to make

an inborn faculty of man even in the low

AN ASTONISHING FACT.


A large proportion Of the American peo.
Pile are to-day dying from the effects of Dys::
pepsia or disordered liver. The result Of
these diseases upon the masses of intelligent
and valuable people is most alarming, max
ing life actually burden instead of a pleas
ant existence OF enjoyment and usefulness
as it ought to be. There is no good reason
for thip, if you will only throw aside pre-
judice and skepticism, take the advice Of
Druggists and yo1r friends, and try one bot
tie Of Green's August Flower. Yourspeedy
relief is certain. Millions of bottles of this
medicine have been given away to try its
virtues, with satisfactory results in every
case. You can buy sample bottle for 10
cents to try. Three doses will relieve the
worst case. Positively sold by all Drug.
