FRIENDs-THE HUSBAND TEN YEARS THE
YOUNGER.
A sensation has been created I'm Rochester,
n. Y, by the marriage OF a wealthy maiden
lady TO her coachman. The brides name Is
Anna Mcfarland, and John Banks Is the name
of the happy man. Miss McFarlands father
was formerly a tanner. He married into q
wealthy family. He went TO Michigan,
engaged I'm the lumber business and became
quite wealthy. He died few years ago, and
his daughter, Anna, returned 90 her former
home i'm Caledonia, about fifteen miles west OF
Rochester. She fell heir to something like a
hundred thousand dollars. She purchased her
father s former residence and provided herself
with horses, carriages and servants. She en-
gagged as coachman Banks, who il not tall or
good-looking. Soon an attachment sprang up
between them, greatly 90 the establishment of
the lady's circle friends. Her brother and other
relatives came from Michigan To prevent the
match, but could not. The couple came TO
Rochester, and engaged board at a boarding
house. Last week they were privately mar
ried, but the news did not leak out until Tues
day this week. The bride H. about 80 years u
age, while the groom Is only 20.

Educational lighthouses.

The New Hampshire Journal thus
describes what It t e Ga the *:muraIerouaa
method" of the public schools: "The
vast educational machine grinds on as
remorselessly as ever. Its victims are
found in thousands of households and
many more sleep in the graveyards, and
yet the grim curriculum in the hands
of the school committee is steadily be-
ing strained up to an increased pressure
in the interest of what is called sth
higher eaucation:' What is there in
this school training that should
enable it to hold on it's way with
the upaaiminished PAGES It is
not because the awful results are not to
be clearly seen: Go into any public
school; the bent form; the squ;nting,
near-sigEted eyes, the excited Or worn
out expressions in many faces, the s:grs
of disease and pvar death, tell too plainly
what fruits are following these liberal
canrses Of study pursued under tie
whip and spur of frequent examinations
and meritorioqs marks and the prizes
of promotion. Go into the households,
and see how every law of health in eat
ing, rest and sleep is violated for the
sake lot the higher education"

The Repeated Sermon:

Christian Advocate
At one time, when the writer was
pastor of the Summerfield church, the
Rev: Herman Bangs was the presiding
elder. His appointment to preach was
for Easter Sunday. He came and
preached an admirable and appropri:
ate discourse on the resurrection Of
Christ. At the close Mrs. Anna Knapp,
widow Of fourscore years and daughter
of the Rev. Smith Arnold, one Of the
pioneers, came to the altar, and in the
hearing of the writer thus addressed
"Uncle Herman" as the venerable
preacher was affectionately called by
those who had known him long: "Bro-
Their Bangs, enjoyed your sermon very
much. / heard you preach it 40 years
ago. I liked it then. I heard you
preach it again about % years ago, and
was good then, and to-day it was as
good as ever" Uncle Herman, with
that look which those who saw it will
never forget-of mingled good humor
and quizzical spirit replied: swell,
Sister Knapp, has there been any
change in the facts about she resurrec-
zion of our Lord in the last 40 years !?
If it was good the first time you heard
it, why should it not be just az good
now?' Said the old lady: well,
BROTHER Bangs, we shall soon be where
you won't haye to make an argument to
prove it, as you did to-aay:V Neither
their piety nor their intirmity Of old age
had dulled their wits.

currents of life, you will suddenly leave
it, feeling ees #, in anr9ther hour, tha
