"Idon't want that Stuff"

Is what a lady of Boston said to her
husband when he brought home
some medicine to cure her of sick
headache and neuralgia which had
made her miserable for fourteen
years. AT the first attact thereafter,
it was administered to her with such
good results, that she continued its
use until cured, and made so enthu-
siastic in its praise, that she induced
twenty-five of the best families in
her circle to adopt it as their regular
family medicine That stuff is
Hop Bitters. "-IStdndard.

Too Anxious to Marry.
From the New York World

From the New York World.
There is one reflection suggested by the
exploits in the marrying and swindling line
OF Arthur Merritt, which does not seem to
have commended itself to any OF our es-
teemed contemporaries, yet is very obvious.
This man Of so years has managed to marry
nearly q dozen women within 3 very short
space of time; once indeed he was averaging
very nearly wife week. Without an
exception they were women Of some educa.
ton and intelligence. Was he absolutely
and exclusively to blame, or should not
some responsibility attach to his victims
and to the social system under which they
live? Reduced to plain language, the case is
about this; In acareer lasting some years.
and extending over q wide extent of country.
Merritt does not seem to have encountered
one woman, who, on his own assurance
that he was we'll do, was unwilling to
marry, off hand a total stranger old enough
to be her father! This same fact was ",
conspicuously illustrated in the case Of the
accomplished bigamist who came to grief
last year at Chicago, after having married
and deserted nearly twenty woman. He was
not an old man, but he was far from attrac-
tive, and entirely without fortune or the
appearance Of it. This readiness to enter
upon the most eacred and important rela-
tons Of life without for moment weighing
the responsibility or counting the conse-
quences is, in connection with our divorce
system, one Of the gravest and least salts
factory features OF our society.
