MatrinOny.

To my thinking, love is the most
sacred of heavens gifts, and should be
waited for as reverently as the descent
of the Holy Ghost. Matrimony may.
indeed, be means of grace, even when
it is as unhappy as the marriage of that
pair on whose tombstone, in New
Hampshire church-yard, appreciative
neighbors sculptured for epitaph:
"THEIR WARFARE IS OVER"
but surely matrimony should never be
entered into as a means of livelihood.
The woman who deliberately marries for
money has something to boast over her
UNBIASED " sisters of the demi-monde
IN propriety, but little in principle.
Some blunders will, of course, be made
in the purest good faith. Plenty of
foolish girls will mistake for love their
own enjoyment of admiration and pleas
ure of being loved, and plenty of young
men will mistake for something sacred
and eternal the transient stir of fancy
awakened by pretty face or taking
manner. If marriages are born of these
delusions, the error is to be pitied and
not despised; yet from the lifelong
penalty of such blunder can no man
or woman hope wholly to escape.
Though the best joys of life may thus
have been lost, its burdens can still be

night the engineer 1t his post In the cab
felt = sudden shock and then the sensa-
ton that some heavy object Wa being
dragged along under the cow-catcher.
In the meantime the wheels Of the 10
connective had left the track, though this
WAS not known. In . few minutes,
speed having been slacked, cattle trap
or hollow under the rails was reached,
and the heavy object fell from beneath
the engine, which tipped over and fell
from the ties. The engineer jumped,
the fireman going over with his engine.
Neither Of the men WIS hurt, none Of
the cars left the track, and the engine
itself sustained but little injury. The
body ola COW We found under the bars,
the animal evidently having jumped up
suddenly and attempted to cross the
track just - the engine came along
The engineer had looked carefully ahead
. moment before and NO obstruction
was then visible on the rails. Nobody
