How to Obtain Long Life.

Thousands of people annually ruin
their constitutions by simply swal-
lowing too much medicine. It is a
dangerous thing to fly with every
little ailment to the medicine chest.
The use of tonics, unless by medical
advice, should be discountenanced a
tonic is sharper than a two edged
sword it is tool that needs to be
used with caution. There are now,
l am sorry to see, some arated wat
ers coming into use which contain
the strongest mineral tonics, that are
apt to accumulate in the system with
the most disastrous results. They
should therefore not be drunk adj
libitum as to quantity, or without
guidance as to quality. Rest should
be taken with regularity.
One day in seven should be set
apart for the complete rest of body
and mind. Independent of this, all
who can afford it should take an
annual holiday. Travelling is cheap,
and two weeks or months reIaxa-
tion from care and business cannot
make big hole in the purse of one
who works well all the rest of the
year and knows how to economize
time. Innocent pleasure and whole
some recreation conduce to longevity.
All work and no play sends Jack to
an early grave. Recreation is to the
mind and nervous system what sun
shine is TO the blood. AS a physi-
clan, must be allowed to saw lust
one word about the quieting, calm
ing effect of religion upon the mind.
The truly religious make by far and
away the best patients, their chance
Of recovery from serious sickness ar
greater, and so is their chance of long
life, simply owing to the power they
have of submitting themselves quiet.

How Russian Girls are Courted.

Love is the same the world over,
out "courting" is managed very diff.
ferently in different countries. Rus
sian courting, among the middle
classes. Is peculiar. The first Whit
sunday after the young girl is ac-
knowledged by her mother to be of
marriageable years. she is taken to
the Petersburg summer. garden to
join the "bridal promenade" This
consists of the daughters of the Rus
sian tradesmen walking in process
sion, followed by their parents. Up
and down they go. pretending to chat
with each other and to take no notice
OF the young men-the tradesmen's
sons, dressed in their best clothes
who walk in another procession on
the other side. However, every now
and then some young fellow slips out
OF his proper ranks and adds himself
to the line of girls on the other side,
speaking to one particularly. The
parents of the girl join in the conver-
sation in few moments. and soon
they leave the pomenade and are
joined by the parents of the young
man. Generally the old folks have
talked it well over before, but on this
occasion every one pretends to be sur
prised. On the next day a female
confident calls on the girls parents
and requests her hand. This grant.

ed, all the relations on both sides meet
and argue about the portion to be
given with the girl. If this is not
satisfactory all is at an end if it is
what is expected the betrothal takes
place.
The bride and bridegroom kneeI
down upon a great fur mat and the
pride takes ring from her finger and
gives it to the bridegroom, who re-
turns the gift by another. The BRIDES
mother meanwhile crumbles a piece
OF bread over her daughters head
and her father holds the image of his
daughters patron saint over his fu.
ture son in-law's well-brushed locks.
AS they arise bridesmaids sing a
wedding song. The guests each bring
forward a present of some sort. Wine
Is handed about and some one says it
is bitter and needs sweetening. Upon
This the bridegroom kisses thebrfdeZ
the sweetness being supposed to be
provided by this kiss-salutes the
company and takes his leave, on
which the bridesmaids sing song
with chorus something like this:
Farewell, happy bridegroom,
But return to be still more happy"
Courting time has now begun. Ey-
cry evening the lover comes to his
lady's home with a present which is
always something good to eat-gen-
orally cakes or sugar pIums. He
makes love under rather awkward
circumstances, for the bridesmaids
sitabout the betrothed pair in a circle,
singing songs descriptive of their hap
piness.
The last evening of the courtship
is enlivened by the presentation of
the gifts of the bridegroom, which
must include brushes, combs, soap
and perfumery. On receiving these,
the bridesmaids instantly carry the
bride away and wash her, dress her
hair and perfume her pocket-hand-
ker'hief. Thus touched up she re-
turns to the company, and the BRIDES
father gives his future son-in-law the
marriage portion, which he takes
home with him in neat bag.
The next morning he returns for
the lady herself. She receives him
with her hair unbraided and flowing
down her back. They are married
by the ceremonies of the Greek
church, and the old folks never 90 to
the wedding dinner.
Those eternal bridesmaids, whom
they must hate by this time, are
there, however, still on duty, and
the evening closes by the bride kneel-
ing down and pulling off her bus
bands boots to prove her intention
to be an obedient and submissive
wife.
Good-natured bridegro0ms gener.
ally hide jewelry or money in their
boots, which the bride may take pos
session of as balm for her pride. After
the wedding day the parents begin
to give feasts and keep it up for a
week, and it is not until all this is
over that the "young couple" see
those blessed bridesmaids take their
departure. They are then compelled
to kiss them, thank them and give
them each a present.

Wabashaw street about O'Clock yesterday
morning. At that hour the occn pants in
front of the building were aroused by
sitting fumes of smoke and an investiga-

alarm wss turned in from box No. 16,
and the blaze was soon squelched by the

rafters and the floor, and a space six feet
in width and about twelve feet long was
burned out. How it started is mystery.
The damage is about $50, fully insured.
