Accommodating Mood of Bene-iict Who

lThomaston Comm speeiall
The most remarkable case of domestic
felicity, elf-denial and peculiar happiness
is to be found in this town. A few years
ago one of the most prominent men in the
shops here took to himself lovely woman
as his wife. Everything went on happily
and she bore him four children. Then
came friend of the husbands to work in
the town and TO take up his residence with
this couple. In a year or two this friend
conceived a deep regard for the other
mans wife, aud in due time the regard
rpened into love and was thoroughly recip-
r Gated. The husband becoming cognizant
Of this state Of affairs, made no murmur,
but when the tim was ripe gave his full
consent to the union of his wife and his
friend, going himself to get the divorce.
The friend and the first mans wife mar
ried, and moved into the house adjoining
the one the happy couple had previously
occupied. The children by the first mar
riage were equally divided, Lut they all
share their time between the two homes
and the people themselves. The first hus-
band and the second husband, as well as
the one wife, spend about as many hours
at ons home as at the other. The wife
dos the mending and domestic duties for
both families. The first husband has
grown old fast, but has never been heard
10 complain, and all part es seem to be
perfectly happy. That truth Is strang r
than fiction was never bstter illustrated.
