No Marriage After the Resurrection

They were having mild matrimonial
Disagreement one Of those disputes which
are rather contests OF the wit than OF the
temper.

TO be married, aud then so dissatisfied with
the result afterward.n
"ln the first place. his better half
answered, "girls are never frantic to be
married; they are just bullied into IL by the
men, and II stands TO reason when they
find out what has happened TO them they
would give anything in the world to be out

had the faintest idea of the laziness
and general worthlessness OF your
sex there wouldn't be another marriage be-
tween now and Doomsday For my part, /
am convinced that the reason there are to
be no marriages after the resurrection Is
that then your sex will be shown up In its
true colors, and no girl will look at one Of
you afterward.'
"lngenious, my DEAR he responded,
'but improbable, because II has been shown

which YOU women do not care fig il is

that the true reason of the suspension of
marriages after the day of Judgment Is that
there viii be no wome. saved for us TO
marry
AT least she retorted, getting rs usual
the last word, 1--WE shall then be spared the
worst that could do TO us. We might be

sneeringly. 1T is Ill work open

You will find her out soon enough

And chuckling and laughing she
went away into the bright, old, tiled
kitchen, and up from thence to the
quaint old chamber, which the bride
was so soon TO call her own. From
place to place she moved, arranging
the fronds of fern and clusters OF
roses and snowy wealth OF lilies which
filled her basket. The lovely delicate
blossoms filed the room with fra
GRANGE and color. and enhanced its
snowy purity and dainty cleanliness.
Rose glanced round it all with mali
cious eyes and envious heart.
.'For n worthless chit like that TO
have such a home" she muttered.
Then on the table, before the owl glass
which would so soon reflect the young
brides face, she placed bunch OF
deadly herbs-rue, nightshade, hem
bane.
''For luck" she chuckled malicious
ly, and then closed the door, and left
the room TO silence and sunshine.

The Light ofshooting Stars.

While commenting on a memoir
presented 10 the Academy OF Sciences,
NJ. Cornu gave 1t as his opinion that
the light emitted by shooting stars is
not due TO conflagration or to the heat
of impact. In those high regions our
atmosphere is too unsubstantial TO rem :
der the explanation acceptable. 1t is
much more likely the phenomenon is
one of static electricity developed by
simple friction, and it is well known
that rarefied gases can be made to
glow intensely with but very little
electric fluid.

PEOPLE talk OF the grand old times,
and we often hear men express wish
chat they had been born at such or
SUCH time In tho worlds past. This
is all nonsense. There never was a
time in the history OF the world when
IL was better TO live in than now. The
poorest laborer to-day-no matter how
humble his surroundings Lives In a
manner superior TO a nobleman two
hundred years ago. He has even
luxurles besides what they used to
have, and our millionaires live In a
style that surpasses the way monarchs
lived couple Of centuries ago. 1t Is
only the romance OF the past that
comes TO us--we know nothing OF the
reality.

What a Somerset (Pa.) County Man
Thinks

w. II. Miller, of Stoyestown, Pa. Who
has been suffering for nearly a ouarlCr of
a century from an affection of the Kid
neysI resulting in the necessity for a
being treated by a number of onr own
doctors, as we'll as receiving the treat
mcnt and advice of some of the most en-
inent professional men OF the land. finally
became acquainted with the above Insti-
tute and their mode and means of treat
ment. After due cOrresp ondence with
the Worlds DiSpensary Medical Associa-
ton, the prOpTietOrs Of the Invalids'
Hotel, he was induced TO visit said inSti-
tuition. On arriving there and after being
fully acquainted with the abundant
means they possess, he lost no time in
making the necessary arrangements for
the required treatment. After remaining
for nearly four weeks at the InvalidS'
Hotel, where you receive the kindeSt and
best treatment, and where patients are
10th to leave. after recovery, he returned
to his family and friends a cured and
happy man.
In giving this to the public, Mr.. Miller
wishes to say that he owes the aforesaid
Institute nothing but his best wishes.
And the fact that his own success and
great relief is due to similar testimonials
from Others who were successfully treat
ed there for all manner of chronic diseas
es from every state and territory of the
Union, Canada, Mexico and South
America. 1t is a marvel of success. He
further says, should this fall to the notice
of any sufferers from chronic diseases,
such as seem to battle the skill of your
own physician but first and above all
give your own physician fair and i'm
partial trial, and all the available means
offered, as Somerset county may justly
feel proud of her medical men, who spare
no means nor time in the treatment of all
cases entrusted to their charge. And if
they fail in many cases, it will be an act
of charity to point you to a place where
probable cure may be effected, which
is the humble intent of the above cOmmu-
nication. The above association is cour-
teOus. prompt and reliable. -Somerset

Where a Woman Went.
Leeds Mercury.

Leeds Mercury.
That most adventurous of woman
travellers, who is known to the read
ing public as Miss Isabella Bird and
TO her friends as Mrs Bishop, has
just returned to England after safely
accomplishing a most difficult and
dangerous journey, record of which
will shortly be published by Mr..
John Murray. The immediate object
of the journey was to carry out be-
quest of her late husband an Edin-
burg gentleman who left funds for
the establishment or a hospital in
one of the remote corners of the globe
The place was not specified, and Mr..
Bishops object was to secure the es-
tabli' hmenJ of hospital in one of
the outlying parts of civilization,
where the need for such an institu.
tion would be most severely felt.
Cashmere was the locality selected
by the widow. aud there Mrs. Bishop
has succeeded in carrying out her
husbands wishes. But, her mission
accomplished, she was not content t.
relurn home by the prosaic way OF
India. Thibet lay too close at hand
for the temptation to be resisted.
Lhassa is. perhaps, the one spot on
the earth's surface which most eXcites
the curiosity of the adventurous
spirits who are ever on the search or
some new realm to conquer. Russian

many unsuccessful attempts to pene-
trate the mystery of that strange
town which is 80 religiously guarded
against foreign intrusion. The novel
ty and difficulty of the attempt fasci-
mated Mrs. Bishop, and she set out
for Thibet. But on the borders q
great and insuperable difficulty pre-
scented itself She was told that ne
obstacle would be placed in the way
of her journey, but that the cheif
official of every village where she
staid would inevitably lose his head
and every district that received her
would be heavily fined for doing
so.
The prospect was not inviting, and
reluctantly Mrs. Bishop decided that
she had no right to bring down such
severe punishment on the heads of
her hosts. She accordingly turned
her steps southwestward, and pass
ed through Bslochistan to Persia
and Armenia On her way she met
with many adventures and explored
the source of the Karun River. Pro.
baby she is the first European in
modern times who has visited the
source Of this river, and the scenery
she describes as magnificent in the
extreme.

and attacked the goat with q club

He then started to the house for a
rifle with which to kill the goat. In

it, when suddenly the mule turned
