meeting of the board Of trade and citizens

An Example of Patience.

AS man of patience Job was simply a
weak imitation of the real thing, says
the Western Ju1-ualist. If you want an
example of bona f1o2 natience and long
suffering behold ye gentle and worthy
scribe who hath just taken unto himself
a weakling newspaper to build up. He
feedeth ye slot, SO to put it, unceasing-
~, and between his rising and his lying
down he laboreth industriously to in
fate his nurseling with goodly growth.
He toileth, far into the night and burn
eth much oil, or tallow, according to his
means, but for all his pains and labor
he accomplished naught He looketh
and longeth for ye wherewith-all to
nurture his weakling and it cometh not,
yet he possesseth himself with angelic
patience. hoping against hope the while,
until the feeble spark goeth out and ye
nurseling yieldeth up it's life. Then
hieth he himself unto a tannery, or some
other light and genteel employment,
and seeketh surcease of his woe.

A RUSSIAN ROMANCE.
a WIdower Refuses to Part with the
Body OF His Wife.

- "AuOW0E tSOLuSON Co Fart with tho
Body Of His Wife.
A romantic story, strange If true, is
published, says Gilignani, of wealthy
Russian gentleman living in his own
house on the banks of the Seine, who,
for the last ten years, has kept in box
In private room the embalmed body of
his young wife. She was murdered a
few days after marriage, and her sor-
rowing husband obtained the Cars per-
mission to take her body away with
him. The discovery was made by the
prying propensities of the cook left In
charge of the house during tho tempo
rary absence of her master. There is o
curious side to the story, which, if true,
will need explanation. How was it that
a police commissary, being informed of
the discovery of a corpse in the house of
a rich foreigner, should have left it
there and simply written to the owner
of the house for information? Those
gentlemen do not generally hesitate
about making even forcible entries into
houses in which they even suspect there
is something they ought to know, see or
take possession Of. The law of France
forbids absolutely the keeping of dead
body in any place but cemetery. The
Russian gentleman hopes to obtain spe-
cial permission from high quarters to re-
main the custodian of his beloved relic.
If not he threatens to leave the coun-
try rather than part with it.

MIXED RELATIONSHIPS.

Some years ago two farmers Of Polk
County, Ia, lost their wives by death.
They naturally felt lonesome, and in
due time began to think second wife
in each household would be most ex-
cellent addition thereto They were
neighbors and friends, and each had
family of children, including one or
more grown daughters. After careful
consideration, each took the others
daughter as his second wife. Through
these marriages children were born to
each. These children now reside in
Polk County. What was the relation
ship between the two men and their
wives, and in what relationship did the
children stand to each other and to the
old folks? Tho old farmers were IA
thers-in-law to each other and also sons
in-law to each other. Who will carry
out the relationships Of the mothers and
their children?
