Rivers, was insane and incompetent to make
deed, and that he was imposed on and only re-
ceived 81 for the lot. One Of the witnesses, In

thought he was mentally impaired, because he
would borrow small sums of money and forget
to repay them. This assertion occasioned

darker and denser. until it becomes an i'm

Nay Give Any Amount OF Happiness to n
Newly Married Couple.

wv Nhbit ,ohptEs
Thhe Christian Union tells OF one way
to g6et married and take a tour: The
younng couple are not at all rich. They
are ggoing to live in four rooms upstairs
in a little suburban house. Neither one
had a home, and when they made up
theiIr minds to be married they began,
firstt of all, TO save from their earnings
TO furnish for themselves a corner which
theyy could call home. Several weeks
BEFORE their wedding they engaged their
roontns, and enjoyed furnishing them and
visiting together quite as much as if
they were arranging a mansion TO live
in. They moved their trunks the morn
ing of the wedding day, and in the
evcrnlng they had a few friends come TO
see them in their little new parlor,
where the minister married them. The
bridde then served the guests TO a supper
she had prepared before putting on her
white dress, and everybody was very
happy and merry. 1t seemed almost as
if thhey thought this way of doing was
as pheasant and home-like and lovely as
if thhey had rushed of TO spend their
savings on a wedding journey.
