Tho Academy of Music.

On Saturday evening Miss Ada
Gray will appear at the Academy Of
Music in her new play entitled "The
Ring of Iron." This drama is highly
sensational, but the scenes are per-
fectly consistent. The plot is laid in
The gold fields of Australia, during 1851,
and in an English mad. house. All the
scenes are vividly portrayed, and
many of them extremely com ic, promi-
nent among which may be mentioned
the forced marriage Of the only single
girl in the camp. The rough but hon
est diggers Of Balarat object to having
a single woman among them, and the
on ly one there is forced to pick out one
from among their number for q bus-
band. Making the best OF this forced
match, she selects the most bashful
man in The camp, and the wedding is
celebrated with rude and comic ceremo-
nies.
The arrangements for ventilating the
Academy of Music are now 30 complete
that even If the weather should prove
warm the building Is kept cool and
comfortable, SO no one need be deferred
from attending on account of the heat.
The prices have been fixed at Is, 20, 30
and rs cents for the season.

A tragedy does not necess arily imply /
murder There may be only the killingI
of peace, hope, happiness, and the reputa-
tion of the actors.
Such are the common results in the
cases we now coEtem plate, where in d.
vorce courts the miseries of the home life |
are set out in horrid detail, and after the |
natural conflict by paid advocates over
the property, husbands and wives, and
sometimes the children, are parted, each
to be, more or less, under cloud forever
more.
Some good may come from inquiring
into the causes of such tragedies.
Among the foremost we must put hasty
marriages. We do not mean by "hasty"|
too early, but on too short an accquaint-
ance.
A man is struck with something In al
woman, gets brief acquaintance, pro-
poses, and is accepted, and the union
takes place, neither knowing the history,
the tastes, the ways of the other, bnt as
sumiug that the company manners and
the special graces assumed to please are
| the fixed features of the life Oh which
happiness Is made dependent.
| A woman is struck by mans appear
ance or ways; she, with woman's in
genuity, manages to make it known that
she is "pleased to see him."
His selflove is fattered; curiosity is
aroused; kindly looks are given, some
thing he thinks love-and it may be all
that his shallow nature is capable OF at
the time-is felt and expressed, and the
union is the early result. The olsen
lchantment comes in due time.
Sometimes it is self-interest that
prompts the union and expedites it,
Mr.. B. has nothing but credit, and not
much of that; but Miss c., he hears, is
swell off,"
He does not want long delays or
much inquiry. The sooner the better for
him.
| When Mrs. B. awakens to the facts of
1.-THE case, she begins to discount the
! professions of overpowering attach
ment, and her reciprocal tenderness cools
down.
Now 1t is just here that word needs to
be spoken to many wives, and not few
Husbands.
Making love is one thing. Making q
living is quite another.
The nice ways and sweet words OF the
: one go no length in the prosaic details o.
the other.
81 Husbands and wives ought to remember
this, and allow for differences.
Each is to help the other by kind con.
cessions, reasonable allowances, sensible
) accommodations.
"Why, Charles! you used to give me al
fyour evenings; now you go to see those

The True Foundation of Happy Life

1t is not what life is to bring to a
man, but what he is able to carry into
it, that will determine his happiness.
II he has been so influenced as to hold
the former lightly, and to give to the
latter his enthusiastic interest, the true
foundation of happy life has been
laid. Then luxurious desires will be
kept in check and small troubles will
be borne patiently, not so much by a
martyr-like effort of self-sacritice as by
simple and real appreciation of theil
relative insigificance. Other things
will appear of SO much more conse
quence that the petty interests of lif'
Twill sink to their true level,

peared as if it could not be checked,
and that the patient would bleed to
death.
When this was stopped, and the
bright light flashed in the ear, shin
ing point was seen. The forceps were
applied to it and drawn out. To the
establishment of every one, in the
teeth of the forceps was q small brass
pin. The cause OF the trouble had
been found at last. 1t was narrow
escape, and q fortunate, though acct.
dental discovery, for if it had been
left in theNear it would have caused @
constant sAppuration and decompo-
sition, and in the end would have re-
suited in death. When the cause was
found all puzzfing symptoms could be
accounted for, aud it was considered
a pretty good indication Of the slow
ness of the most Accute minds that
something of the klad had not been
thought of.
The boy can only go one ear Oh the
next Fourth of July celebration, as
the mechanism OF the right ear was
destroyed. The wound is healing well,
and all the troublesome symptoms
are gone, and the patient, will be
around with the boys in q few days.
How did the pin get int the ear? All
that the boy knows about it is, that
he dropped pin into his ear one
night as he was going to sleep. That
the pin should work through the drum
head is hardly probable, though NOT
impossible, but in the absence of any
other explanation will have to be &C.
cepted.
