missed a pair of slippers which he
priced highly, and at once made CON-

must be found, as he was tired of hear

Demorest's Mayazine.l
An eminent physician Of New York,
upon the occasion of his daughters
marriage, prohibited her fiom going
on the usual bridal tour. He did this
from considerations of health and del
lcacy which are not generally borne in
mind. The first experiences Of a
bride are such that she would natural
ly court retirement and rest rather
than o%stentatious publicity. Ayounp
couple in public cars and at hotel
tables cannot keep the precious aud
happy secret all to themselves. Their
newly formed relation tells itself in a
thousand ways. OF this the bride is
conscious, and the ordeal to a sensi-
tive young woman is most trying.
Then the sudden change in the life Of
the woman is liable to bring on
physical arrangements which
may last a life tire, for
the shock TO an exaItation Of her feel
ings reacts on her body, often injuri-
ously. SO the New York doctor we
have been speaking of ordered his
daughter, with her husband, to enter
at once upon the duties of a new
home, and to postpone the tour until
at least a month had passed away. Of
course there is another side Of this
question. IL may be that even the
fondest affection would not continue

REPRESENTATIVE Pillow, of Mar

democrat, voted against the 1908 bill

pledged the democracy against the

He could not go back on his pledges
made to the people, nor willingly be

as the representative Of an honest
constituency. If the people are once
deceived in their representatives.
how shall their faith in public men be
restored? He further objected to the
coupon feature. because, in his opin-
ion, it implied a want of confidence
in the honesty and good faith of the
people of Tennessee, and that on the
heels of an election, 10 which a ma
jority of near 10000 Tennesseeans
had voted in favor of an honest set
Element. 1t had not been demanded
Of other states, with perhaps one ex-
ception. He believed the people Of
Tennessee would pay their honest
debt without the aid Of manacles on
their hands. He was unwilling Ia
surrender the sovereignty of his be-
loved state into the hanos of Others
and bind her hand and foot at the feet
of her creditors.
