An item is floating about the news
papers that within the last two years
there have been ten marriages BY tele-
graph, in some cases the parties living
in different States. It is exceedingly
doubtful whether such unions are legal,
but the mere fact that they are entered
into in this theatrical way is a signifi-
cant commentary OIL the lax ideas peo-
pie are coming more and more to enter
tain on the sanctity of the marriage
relation. What wonder that a union
that is contracted in this hap. hazard
way should be dissolved by divorce
IN few months? 1t would certainly
do much to make the marriage relation
more enduring, if every opportunity
were taken to impress upon the people
the nature OF its solemn obligations,
and to insist that those who enter it
should do 80 with becoming delibera-
ton ahd decorum. Giddy. pated young
people ought to be made to learn that
" getting married " is not frolic. but
the most serious business in the life of
any man or woman.-N. Y. Examiner.

Sound Sense.

Not long ago the Rev. Robert Collyer
told the story of his life to the students
of Eastman's Business College, in
Poughkeepsie, drawing from it many
pointed morals. The story" is we'll
worth reading and bordering; and we
cannot ferbear giving our readers one
or two brief extracts from the published
report. Mr.. Collyer mentioned four
things, which, las he had learned his
lesson, go to make a man; good birth,
good breeding, your own good en-
deavor, and that good fortune which is
but another name for the goodness of
God" He described the simple home
in Yorkshire, paying his mother a
tender tribute for the cleanliness and
wholesome regimen that secured per-
feet health, and for the training that re.
PEELED vice and fostered self-improve-
ment. In concluding his "talk," Mr..
Collyer gave the following sensible
advice: "When you get through
with the college, and take hold of your
life's work, do not think of making a
fortune as the one grand aim of your
life, but of carving out homo, finding
IA good, true woman for your wife, and
raising, please God, a good family. I
do not cry down money. I think it is
10 good servant and good friend, but
it is about as cruel q master as ever
used whip. A shrewd farmer said to
me once, Never marry for money, my
lad; marry for love; but if thou finds
q nice girl that has money, try to love
her, would not say that to you, but
this: If You find the nice girl, some
such match for you as my mother was
for my father, and if you love her,
marry her, If she will have you, though
she has not dollar to her name. This
is sore evil under our American sun,
that there should be such mishap and
disaster in the welded life. It lies in
this, that in the most momentous thing
We can do we 80 often use the least
Judgment. We who have had our turn
want the young men Of your birth and
breeding to raise q generation of
nobler and better type, boys and girls
strong OF arm and sure of foot, deep
chested, sunny-hearted. full of faculty,
and wholesome to the irnermost nerve,
and to do this you must do two things;
give them noble mothers, and don't
linger shivering on the brink, and
fear to launch away but when you
know You can take care of home in q
simple, wholesome fashion, 60 right to
work and do it,"

A Great Cure Of rheumatism
and Neuralgia of Seven
Years Standing

in a few weeks, by DIR. Jones. The tes-
timony of one of the first ladies Of
Knoxville:
"DR. JoNEs-Dear Sir: am happy
to report that in eight days after using
your remedies my wife was able TO walk
across the parlOr and bedroom, and
comparatively free from pain, though
she had not been out Of bed or the roll
ing chair for seven months, and an in
valid seUen gears. And now, by your
treatment, she is we'll and attending TO
her household duties-has visited the
country and attends church and goes
about and is so we'll no one could tell
she ever had been an invalid seven
years or any length of time, and this is
the more remarkable as her pain and
sufferings were intense and she could not
rest day nor night before she cOmmenc-
ed your treatment, and she was given
up as a hopeless and incurable case.
Neither myself nor wife can say
enough in favor Of your treatment
which is so mild and pleasant, and yet
so exceedingly certain and effective.
every respectfully,
John B. CLoTwoRTHY."
Mr.. ClOtworthy is one OF Knoxville's
most esteemed and energetic citizens.
On account of his wonderful cures
and the great and increasing demand
for his skill, DR.. Jones has extended
his stay at the Hattie House, Knoxville,
Tenn, until April first.

The Iowa City, Indiana, Repu5H-

The Iowa City, Indiana, Repu5Ii-
can has unearthed a very peculiar
case of Tannerism. Nothing like it
has been heard of in this part of the
country before. The fact that the
lady referred to is well known in
the community and that the most
reputable physicians of Iowa City
have examined her case, leaves no
doubt as the accuracy of the state
ment. Miss Hattie Deul, a sister
in-Iaw of DR. Aylworth, of this city,
has not taken a morsel of food for
25 days, nor has she spoken a word
for three years. She abstained from
food on the ground that it was her
religious duty to do so, and from
talking for the same reason. The
persuasion of friends is useless, and
she is slowly wasting away. Miss
Deul is a maiden lady, 50 years of
age, and has always been highly
respected.

Emil Francois married a auadroon

Emil Francois marrIeda quadroon
woman in Texas, where intermar-
riage between white and those poss-
essing any negro blood is penal of
fense. He was convicted and sent
to prison for five years. The con-
vict received much sympathy, for
his wife was almost white, and his
love for her was quite sincere. The
case was carried to the Texas Court
of Appeals, which now declares the
law under which Francois was con-
victed to be in conflict with the 18th
and therefore inopera-
tive. Two years of the imprisoH-
ment, however, have been served.
