Said the youthful Fred. to his Uncle Harry,
I've really made up my mind to marry,
But cannot decide if it is better
That Love or Lucre shall forge the fetter.'

We smile today and we weep tomorrow;
And Fred. theTell always be stormy weather

.Wel, here's the case" said Fred with emo

But she has no money, and, Uncle Harry,
You know twouid be folly for US TO marryi''

''stop! stop"' with a frown, said Uncle Harry,
The girl that you love il the girl to marry
And If she's true, she'll not think it cruel
To live for awhile on water-gruel.
She'll comfort you in the time of trial;
She'll whisper naught of her self-denial;
And cheerfully take the needed stitches
Who mdrries for love, and not for richest
Don't think for a moment, Fred it's better
To bind the heart with a golden fetter;
Though many do ii, yet many rue il.
And Love is u fearful witness to it!

Where two are unequally yoked together;
So turn your back when money bewitches;

Mrs, Edison,

A Washington correspondent says: I
met Tom Edison, the electrician, on
Pennsylvania avenue the other day. He
had run down from New York to look
after his patents. He is looking well,
and is just as awkward and ungainly as
ever. There has been a great deal of
nonsense written about Edison, as there
always is about every man who springs
into fame with bound.
Stock Griffin, Edison's private Sec
retary, once told me funnily charac-
teristie story of the manner in which
Edison came to get married. The idea
was first suggested by an intimate
friend, who made the point that he
needed a mistress to preside over his
big house, which was being managed
by housekeeper and several servants.
daresay the idea had never occurred
to him before, for be it known he is the
shyest and most bashful of men, but he
seemed pleased with the proposition
and timidly inquired whom he should
marry. The friend somewhat testify
replied "anyone;" that man who had
so little sentiment in his soul as to ask
such q question ought to be satisfied
with anything that wore petticoat and
was decent, and concluded by saying:
There are a number of nice girls en-
ployed in your factory over yonder;
they aren't especially refined or cult
vated, l must confess, but they are re-
spectacle, and that is the main consid-
Grafton, after all.
Edison looked them all over, and, af-
ter making his selection, put the ques-
ton plumply to her. 1t was Edison's
way of doing business, but it embarrass-
ed the young lady all the same. She
asked time to consider, and Edison
granted her week. At the end of that
time she accepted him, and they were
married without delay. They had de-
cided to visit the New England states
and Canadas, and make quite an ex-
tended tour. AS the bridal party drove
to the station they passed his labora-
tory. Turning to his wife, Edison ex-
cused himself for few minutes, saving
there were some matters that needed
his attention, and that he would be at
the station in time for the train. The
train came and went and so did several
others, but no Edison. The bride, who
knew his peculiarities, finally drove
back to the house, and waited her liege
lords pleasure. She never saw him
again for forty-eight hours. Immersed
in some idea that had suddenly occur
red to him, he became oblivious to
brides, honeymoons, or anything else

tins touching tale: "a beautiful Young
woman of our acquaintance some wears
ago had an experience by means of this
poisonous custom that will hardly be

her beauty, her dislike of few gray

gentle applications for some wears. shs

remotest idea that the work of silverino
was all the time going on with frichtful
celebrity under the dye, and that every
day increased the ravages in the dark
color Of her locks, if the truth were
known. But frequent and violent head
aches at last made her physician and
her husband positively command her to
cease the dyeing, and to cleanse her hair
thoroughly of the dyes. She went with
her detergentsi into the rather dark bath
