70 TO 60 --Gently confidlng in each other,
there came to Vancouver last Friday youth
of 70 winters, and sprightly lady of 60 sum-
mers, who, after many difficulties, succeeded
in launching their barque upon HE matrimo-
NAL sea, which in Oregon would have been a
stormy sea, on account of a little breeze
raised by the children of the lady most con-
cerned. The groom crossed the plains in
lS47, and saw Vancouver when it was not
yet out of the brush, and it was one of the
acquaintance made here in those days that
enabled him to 90 to the County Auditor
and prove that he was over 81 years of age

sance of appearances, however apparent of
truth-and Mr.. Ryan swore that he was
over 81, and at the solemn twilight hour of

honeymoon upon his respectable estate in
Oregon, and as they both have a muchness
of this worlds goods, they can be a comfort
to one another in their declining years.

ago. He denies having i colt poisoned, and
it is not true, because it was an old horse
and died of Oil age-and he didn't have any
dog poisoned, because it was shot by one OF
the ncighbors' boys, and he didn't have any
dog anyhow Thus the ncghborhood is
cleared OF all suspicion OF any poisoning
going on.

Treating Broken Legs in Horses.

broken leg, thus The leg was carefully
set by an experienced surgeon, and was
covered thickly with plaster. When the
,,laster "set'' or hardened, it kept the
limb ns immoyable as if it had been
made Of iron. Thus treated, it is as
serted, broken leg will knit together
in brief time and become as good as
ever.
And it might pay the farmer to try
the remedy since an ordinary horse with
q broken leg is not worth the trouble
and expense of The cure, under the old
plan of swinging up, etc. e
