A Romantic Marriage.

A romantic marriage took place here
recently, says Lexington (Ky.) dis
patch, at the residence of I. ]. Nichols,
the we'll known horseman, the parties
being Mr.. R. A. Mulligan and Miss
Maggie Johnson. Years ago, when
little children, they were members Of
the community of Shakers, near Har-
rodsburg. As children they loved
each other, and grew up with the in
tention of some day marrying. The
boy left his home and went to the east,
where he procured position in a
manufacturing house. In course of
time he was advanced to well-paying
position, add he determined to go
back to Kentucky and claim his
Shaker bride. They could not marry
in the community, so they came to
Lexington last spring and secured a
home in Mr.. Nichols family. She
changed her queer garb for one more
fashionable, and more than one young
man in this city fell in love with the
pretty, dignified maiden Of nineteen.
But she was true to her first love, and
anxious looked forward to the day
wnen he should come. He came, and,
as he was under the legal age, diff
Guilty arose as to the procuring of
license. Maggie's mother could not
leave the Shakers and come here to
give her consent. A lawyer was con-
suited. and, going before the county
Judge, she chose Mr.. Nichols as her
guardian. He gave his consent. and
the coveted license was issued. The
sequel took place last night at s o'clock.
The erstwhile Shaker children were
made man and wife in the presence of
number of friends, and were warmly
congratulated by all.

SlipShOd knowledge.

The reference to pouring oil on
troubled waters" is often supposed to
scriptural, though the Bible does not
make any such allusion. "Man wants
but little here below" is an expression
no older than Goldsmith's Hermit"
though it is generally quoted either as
scripture or as line from an ancient
hymn. Mansions of the blest" are
mentioned in the Revelations. not OF
st. John the divine. but to the monk Of
Evesham 4. D. 1867. The critic who
complained of Hamlet" that it was

others what belongs to Shakespeare
than do those who attribute to Shakes

often quoted as Colley Cibber's, was
actually written by Shakespeare. The
instances of this inexactness are very
numerous. The Bible is credited with

The Bad and Worthless

are never initiated or couAterfeited. This is es-
peicaly true of family medicine, and it is pos
tive proof that the remedy initiated is of the
highest value Az soon as il had been tested and
proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was
the purest, best and most valuable family mcdi-
cine on earth, many limitations sprung up and
began to steal the notices in which the press and
people OF the country had expressed the merits of
Ii. b., and in every way trying to induce suffer
ing iN Aids to their stuff instead expecting
to make money on the credit and good name of
II. b. Many sthers started nostrums put up in
similar style to Ii. b., with variously devised
names i'll which the word Hop" or Hops" were
used in way to induce people to believe they
were the same as Hop Btters. All such pretend
ed remedies or cures, no matter what their style
name is, and especially those with the word
Hop" or Hops" in their name or in any way
connected with them or their name are imita-
lions counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch
none of them. Use nothing but genuine Hop
Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of green Hops
on the whrte label. Trust nothing else. Drug
