An Arkansas Romance.

A WIDOW LESS THAN ONE MINUTE
AND A DEATH-BED MARRIAGE.
Little Rock Gazette.
Some time ago a Miss Hampton, a
beautiful young lady, and aiwealthy
young farmer named Rpckton were
married. The young lady could not
have been termed a "happy BRIDE"
She had never loved Rockton and on
only married him to please a widow
mother. 81 viii obey yop,n said the
girl, shut | do not even like MI.
Rockton. There is nothing In sym
pathy between us. He is wealthy;
but while poverty brings, privation;
wealth does not always bring happi-
ness. You know that / am devoted
to Tom Rosemond, and that he is
devoted to me; but if you, as my
mother, command me, | will obey,
even though the effort cost me my
lite as we'll as my happiness"
The ceremony Vas performed.
Rosemond, who would have been the
girls choice, left the neighborhood.
Rockton and his wife began keeping
house. Six months afterward Rose
mond returned and sent Mrs. Rock
ton a note, begging an interview.
She showed the note and her answer
Of refusal to her husband. He kissed
her as a reward of fidelity. Roekton
was taken sick with swamp fever,
and when about to die he said:
"You have been a faithful wife.
Nine women out of ten would have
run away long ago. / have always
known that you loved Rosemond. /
have sent for him. / want you to
marry him before / die so that l can
see the ceremony"
THAT would not be legal ans
wered the wife, "for / cannot marry

ing"
swell, but / want him here so
that the ceremony "A be performed
Immediately after / am dead.n
Rosemond and a preacher were
sent for. They arrived. Rockton
gasped and motioned. The marriage
party approached the bed. Rockton
placed the hands OF the lovers to-
gether, gasped and died. The
preacher raised his hand and the
lovers were married.

o Selections.

Complete self forgetfulness is the
surest way to reach completeness OF
character.
True godliness is the principal
thing, therefore, get it and prize it
above all other things.
Peace is such a precious jewel that
| would give anything for it but
truth. -Mattte.o Henry.
Trust in the Lord and do good; so
shalt thou dwell in the land, and
verify thy shalt be fed.
1t is one thing to wish to have

Archbishop Whately.
If you love and practice sin it is
impossible for you to escape punish
ment. ."Be sure your sins will find
you out."-Num. 1928.
Many a small man is never done
talking about the sacrifices he may
make, but he is a great man, indeed
who can sacrifice everything and
say nothing.
Some one has uttered a truth when
he said: mo man can do the best
work that is in him without a good
amount of kindly sympathy" How
applicable this is to the minister of
the Gospel ! 1t makes all the diff
ference in the world whether he has
the sympathy and cooperation Of
his church members. If they do not
take hold with him, they will be apt
to cripple him, and ten to one they
will censure him for his ~inefiiciency
when they have been the main cause
of it.
