Advice to "a YoRng Man.
{Burdette.]

You can probably be rich, my son, it
you will be. Ii you make up your
mind now that you will be rich man.,
and stick to it, there is very little doubt
that you will be a very wealthy, tole-
rably mean, loved little, hated great
deal, have d big funeral, be blessed by
the relatives to whom you leave the
most, reviled by those to whom you
leave less, and villitied by those to
whom you leave nothing. But you
must pay for it, my son. Wealth is an
expensive thing. 1t costs all tbs worth,
If you want to be worth million
dollars it will cost you just a million
dollars to get it. Broken friendships,
intellectual starvation, loss OF social
enjoyment, deprivation Of generous
impulses, the slnothering of manly as
pirations, a limited wardrobe and a
scanty table, a lonely home because
you fear lovely wife and beautiful
home would be expensive, hatred of
the heather, q dread of the contribution
box, q haunting fear Of the Woman's aid
society, a fretfSl dislike OF poor people
opt OF your sight, a little sham benevo-
can be rich, young man, if you are will
ing to pay the PRICE. -~--s.
Any man can get rich who doesn't
think it is too expensive. True, you
many be rich and be a man among men,
noble and Christian and grand and true,
serving God and blessing humanity, but
that will be in spite OF your wealth and
not as q result Of it. It will be lecaHse
you always were that kind OF a man.
But if you want to be rich, merely to be
rich, il that is the breadth and height
of your ambition, you can be rich, if
you will pay the price. And when you

A Curious Swiss Custom.
HOW A FOREIGN BRIDEGROOM WHO
MARRIES A SWISS GIRE' HAS 10 Ran
SOM HER.
London Globe.

Modern law and ancient custom have
come into conflict lately at Avenches
(the old Roman Aventicun), in the
canton of Naud, to the utter discomti-
ture Of the latter. 1t is a custom in
many Swiss villages, when a maiden
belonging to the parish accepts " a
fUregner,n an inhaUltant OF some other
parish, as her bridegroom, to compel
the successful suitOr to redeem his
bride from her own native community
by paying an indemnity in money to
the young men OF the place. This
lusegeld, or ransom money, is usually
demanded Immediately alter the mar
riage, when the bridal couple are !eav-
ing the brides village. A chain or5rope
is stretched across the road in front OF
the bridal wagon and is not removed
until the husband has paid to the young
male representatives of the tribe the
price of the daughter whom he is about
to carry away. The custom has been
much corrupted in the course OF time,
and the money is now not unfreguently
eXtorted from the father who is about
to lose his daughter, instead OF being
with plea of immemorial
unwritten right and show of force,
from the husband, who has robbed the
village OF IL marriaeeablc maiden. In
Nillarsle, Grand, not far from Avenches,
the village youth met in council and
resolved that the father Of Il departing e
bride should be made to pay the sum
of fifty francs, as Il fine for marrying
his daughter to a foreigner. A deputa-
tion was sent to him, which, after i'll
forming him of this resolution, threat
ened him with Il charivari y in the
event of his refusal. The father offered
thirty francs this sum, however, was
refused as insufficient, and for three
successive nights the young men and
lads of the village executed a fearful
" cats concert underneath his daugh-
ter's window. The father complained
to the police the case was brought
before the district court, and four OF
the ringleaders, in spite of their plea OF
custom, were condemned to five days
Il fine OF twenty five
francs each and payment OF the costs.

Ouray's Sweetheart.

Max Lyman, a prairie scout, y who lived
at the White River Agency a year and
a half and knew the Meekers intimately,
tells this story to q reporter OF the Dubu-
que Times:
Ouray was in love with the eldest
daughter Of Agent Meeker, and [ think
that had this not been the case every
one of the Meeker family would have
been butehered. He often told me that
Ire loved the white girl, and it made
him feel badly to think that he could
meyer marry her. | have seen Ouray
follow her around and watch over her
as it she was a child.
He would do anything to please her.
Ouray's sister knew that her brother
loved the Meeker family, and SO took
good care that no harm should come ito
them. [ was there when the women
We're brought back, and Onray was SO
happy that he rushed up to the Meeker
girl and shook her hand for an hour.
He tried hard to stop her from weeping,

EXTRACTED WITHOUT PAIN-Dr.
Preston is a dentist Of Wayland, n. Y,
who does not confine his interest in the
artificial teeth he makes to his tempo
rary and professional creation of them.
After they have learned to live " from
hand to mouth" he has a habit of ask
ing about them, fondling them, and
anxiously guarding them against threat
ening defects. Some time ago he made
a set of Teeth for the Rev. w. w. Holt,
"of Bloods," whatever that may be.
That gentleman not 6aying for them
when due, Dr.. Preston called to see
them and inquire after their welfare,
Mr.. Holt hanged them to Preston, who
pocketed them and walked off. Mr..
Holt paid his bin next day, and once
more his mouth showed forth Preston's
praise. Three years ago he made a set
for Miss Rosa Roberts, also "of BIoods.n
Being engaged in marriage to gentle
man of Wayland, she made a visit
there few days ago, and Preston
called upon her to inquire if her teeth
were lasting. She unsuspectingly took
them out and put them in his hand.
Wherenpon he pocketed them, with the
remark, lon can have them when
you pay me for themn Her lover came
that night, and she excused herself.
lie insisted upon an explanation, and.
having got 1t, went away, writing next
day that he could not marry a woman
with false teeth. Miss Roberts intends
suing Preston for 5000 damages FOR
the loss of a husband and grief and
annoyance for the absence of her teeth,
and suing the lover for breach of
promise.
