Ay wife was taken sick with what
tle doctors pronounced Typhoid
Fever. She continued coughing and
vomiting for four weeks; she was get
ung lower every day, and at last We
concluded she could not live long. She
could not keep thing on her stom-
aeh- and was distracted with piercing
pains IN head and stomach. We al
last called DIR. Jordan who, when he
saw my wife, said that she would
begin to improve just as soon as she
took the Histogenetic medicine; and
that is just what she did. She began
TO improve st once, and was up ia
three days. She Is now believer in
the Histogene,ic system.

The JOY BELLS OF EASTER.

The Dance OF Egg BY Marguerite Of
Austria and the Duke Of Savoy.
Most things in this world have their
poetical as well a. their material SIDE
What can be more commonplace than the
egg, and yet in all ages and in every
country it has been the subject of poetical
myths and legends. The ancient Firms
believed that a mystic bird laid an egg on
the lap Of Vaimainon, who Matched It in
his bosom. He let It fall into the water
and It broke. The lower portion of the
shell formed the earth, the upper portion
the sky, the liquid white became the sun,
and the. yelk the moon, while the little
fragments OF broken shell were changed
into stars.

EASTER WEDDINGS.

| Advent marriage doth deny: -
But Hilary gives thee liberty;
Septuagesima says thee nay;
Eight days from Easter says you may:
Rogation bids thee to contain;
But Trinity sets thee free again.
The above verse enumerates the times
considered inauspicious for wedlock in the
earlier days. Whitsuntide was fancied a
most favorable season, while the supersti.
ton against marrying on childermas OF
''1nnocent's day." Dec. 90, was exceed.
ingly strong Mothers forbade their sons
and daughters from joining hands with
other sons and daughters on this ami
versary, which cOmmemorated Herod' 8
massacre Of the children, believing a
union formed at this time would bring
only disappointment and trouble.
Marry In Lent
You will live to repent,
is a saying widely circulated and largely
influencing not only the people who lived
ages ago, but society folk in our own day
and generation. 1t is supposed to have
originated in the east of England, from
whence come a great many of the popular
superstitions.
There are no two seasons in the whole
year more prolific in weddings in New
York city than the few weeks preceding
Lent and the interval between Easter
Sunday and the first of May.
Now that Lent is over, the world of
fashion that has spent, for the most part.
the penitential season at Atlantic City,
Lakewood, Old Point Comfort, Florida
and other different fashionable resorts, is
returning homeward, and ere Easter week
has passed will have begun again the
whirl of gayeties interrupted when Ash
Wednesday appeared. Conspicuous in
these festivities will be the wedding The
Lenten season furnished ample time to
prospective brides and their modistes for
extensive preparations in way of trous-
seaux. Happy are the brides who, marry
ing on the threshold Of the spring season,
are provided with absolutely new STYLES
in gowns and bOnnets
Wedding presents, which have to plav
very important part at fashionable we'd
dlnSs, will at this season bring with them
Il flavor of Easter, as the so called easter
novelties will notably lead. Numbered
with said novelties are prayer books in
silver bindings and decorated with white
enameling or etched with scriptural texts
and designs. Silver candlesticks and
candelabra will also prove popular. not
only because these. with their wax can
dies, are exceedingly fashionable lust now:
but because wax candles and tapers have
somehow come to be associated with
Easter. The >flowers, which will be as
plentiful as wedding bells are merry, will
oe largely the early spring productions.

succeeded in obtaining the combination
through some carelessness of the cashier in
leaving a memorandum about and had en-
tered the office, where he was employed as n
sort of janitor, for the purpose Of robbing
the safe. Had he succeeded in doing so, sus-

Then he went to the safe and was quietly re-

hand upon the steel than the circuit was
completed, and the powerful current of cleo
tricity with which the safe was charged
swept through him and deprived him Of

been a man of less robust physique the shock
would have killed him. He VIII never trife
