FORTY-TWO YEARS.
The Touching story of Poor Russian
Couples Protracted Courtship'

The Touching story of Poor Russian
Couples Protracted Courtship'
A correspondent of an English pa
ncr. writing from Moscow, tells the
story of two Russian peasants who
have waited forty-two years to be mar
ried. They met when the man was
twenty and the woman seventeen, but,
being scris and miserably poor, set
themselves to work and save, to earn
money enough to wed. Even after
serfdom was abolished, so slow was
their progress that, after these 1orty-
two years, they only won between
them a small wooden house and three
hundred roubles. With this fortune
they think it safe to marry. How
many Americans would persevere for
nearly half century in laying penny
to penny before venturing on mar
riagc?
A clergyman who has married hun
dreds of couples among the fashion
able circles OF our seal oard cities, said
lately: THE criticism may seem un'
charitable, but it is matter of sober
fact that in half of the marriages which
come under my observation there wa
reason to suppose that the motive o
either bride or bridegroom was to bet
ter her or his worldly condition.
The reason of this is, not that th
Young American is less capable o
deep, unselish feeling than the youn
men of other nations, but that he ha
learned to attach more importanc
than they do to the luxuries and dis
play of life. He has not the money
provide as comfortable or splendi
+, n home for his wife as his father ha
piven him, hence he looks out for
"girl with money!" who will and ca
provide it for herself.
The number of divorces and unhal
py marriages in our cities has II
creased Of late years to such an alarm
ing degree, that the different Christie
churches have endeavored to discov'
and to remove the cause.
1t is simply part of the vast poi
, | onous outgrowth from the love of lu
/. ury and show, which has struck
+, roots so deep into our domestic and
cial life. Every man or woman, eve
boy or girl who tries to bring life ba'
to its simple, healthy conditions W
: help to tear up root of this Up
= growth. Youths Companion.

SNAKE CHARMS A DOG.


Rescued From the Presence of a Mon
stcr Rather, but Is Attacked by Hydro
phobia Next Day.
EASTMAN, GA, Sept 23,-Giles Melton,
farmer was out hunting in the Woodsn near
his house yesterday. His dog ran some dis
tance ahead, and when Mr.. Melton found
him. ten minutes later, he had been charmed
by rattlesnake. The dog was crouching
down on the ground and whiningpiteously
and slowly creeping forward Looking
further ahead he saw an immense rattle
snake colcd as if ready to strike, and
its glitterng eyes fixed on the dog, which
was trembling in every limb and seemed
powcrless to do any thing except creep
slowly nearer and nearer to the deadly
reptile. Every few moments the dog would
whine piteously, and then, impelled
| by an irresistible impulse, would creep
| few inches nearer its deadly chaImer
When the snake had been killed the dog
| fell down foaming at the mouth, and iol
half an hour was apparently lIieless. II
recovered finally and accompanied Mr.
Melton home, but all day it continued tC
act strangely, and would not touch food ol
water The following morning Mr.. Mcltor
found the dog in the back yard foaming al
the mouth and swapping at every thing il
reach. He was soon satisfied that the dos
had bydrophobia, and lost no time ii
| killing it, He is satisfied that the eff
| fects of snake charming caused the dog t.
