Evils of "vsnfty Fair Marriages.


Thoughtless, haphazard and vanity
fair marriages entail inevitable fruits
after their kind. Where .bad begins
worse remains behind" Thus follow
disappointment, bitterness, distress, d.
yorce. The most heartless assertions
are becoming frequent. The husband.
whose faithful and affectionate wife is
bound to him by tender ties of forth
tude, suffering and helpless children,
slaps society in the face. breaks its puny
restraints as cobwebs and pursues his
own selfish will with IMMUNITY. Socie-
ty laughs at this, and other graceful
explorers and adventures of this sort
continue to pick their choice and to do
ns they please. Call IL "fogyism" or
what you will, the old-fashioned meth
cd of watching after girls and of aiding
them in selecting their associates is the
only safe method for the girls. Say
what you may about fathers and even
mothers ''inquiring into the morals of
young men" who seek the society Of
their daughters, there is no safety or
sense In not doing so.-Galveston News

One popularity of the peach is that
it is regularly killed out in April and
rs regularly appears 10 profusion in
the markets in July. As if ashamed
of this conduct it comes in with a
blush on its cheek and by extreme
sweetness seeks to make US forgive
and forget its regeneration. To for
give is easy, but who can forget his
annual unnecessary pang? Each
spring We are deeply concerned in the
state of the weather or health of the
bugs, and as regularly ready, as the
twelve months roll around, to believe
that, owing to frost or borers, the
peach crop is destroyed. But the sun
in his course brings the fruit in its
season. Our fears have been vain
and q fine sermon has been read us
On the folly or worry and the wisdom
of trusting Creative Love. Though
churches be closed and pulpits be ST.
lent, the peach does some preaching as
July proceeds.

Irish Horses.

Bay is it that the whole world may
lefed to beat good Irish horse for
f hunting field? Sir Richard Green
Price has an answer to the question. IL
is that the Irish hunter is brought up to
be handy. Irish gates are few and far
between, and he has to jump banks or
walls for his daily living before he Is
even weaned. He is. moreover. han
died regularly and when young he. is
seldom overbitted or overridden be-
fore he comes into the market. Finally,
from the nature of the soil he has
bone, size and constitution-qualities
which rarely fail him when the higher
feeding of an English stable puts q
finish on his form and manners. Sir
Richard assures US that there is no fear
that ireland is going to fail us in the
matter of hunters. A recent tour of in
spection has convinced him that she Is
breeding them every year in greater
excellence and abundance. - Chicago

of business that goes over my wire here day

wife in Rochester, and answered it by a
dispatch every night. in which he gave a
complete account Of his doings during the

The little old fellow scrambled to his feet
without more ado, and with kind OF song
ambulance shuttle ambed into the midst Of
a score or more boys on the Common.
The veteran was assigned TO right field
and the game began. The opposing nine
came in for its final inning, and that to
which the old man was assigned went into
the field with the score 10 to II in favor Of
the latter.
"Can you catch fieS?" asked the captain.

swer of the veteran.
''All right. Play left field this inning!"
sang out the boy behind the bat, at the same
time motioning to the others to hasten into
place.
'Sorter out n this direction" mumbled
the little old chap, as he struck a pranelng
gait for his old place in right field.
'The other sde," shouted score or more
voices in chorus, while the spectators con-
vulsed themselves with laughter.
Their kinks out er me legs. Them yer legs
kinder want loOs'n up, see 2"
The last inning began.
Two boys went out, one on strikes and
the second on wild f1y, but the third boy
managed to send sky-scraper into left
field. This was the deciding point of the
game, for the two heaviest batters were to
follow.
"Get onto it, old manP' shouted the boys
in the field and tie spectators in one voice.
The little old man youchsafed no reply.
He could not if he wished, for he was all
activity. Gliding out of his tattered coat as
though the arms were creased, he brushed
his hat from his head almost with the same
motion that he sent his shoes flying into
the air.
With single "whoop," such as CO.
manche might be credited with, he shook
the knots out OF his limbs and struck out
with a vim in the direction the ball was
taking.
1t was yet sailing through the air peace
fully but swiftly. and at great height. 1t
seeMed nip and tuck with the old man.
Once only did he look upward as II to
gauge the flying sphere, but with the result
only of increasing his speed.
The ball descended and as it was about to
strike him in the neck he turned.
'Thump!'
The ball did not hit him on the neck, but
the chest, and
mot outp shouted the umpire
"Ain't heyw screamed the old man, wav-
ing the ball to and fro in his right hand.
CONSERVATION reigned supreme. The day
was won, and that too, through the expert
