1t Wa, Time to Marry.

A recent wedding in England was SO
interrupted that the friends OF the
welded pair found special reason to
congratulate them when the ceremony
was at last over. All went merrily
until the bridegroom was called upon
to produce the wedding ring. In vain
he felt in his trousers pocket for the
indispensable trine. Nothing could
be found. except hole through which
the ring had evidently fallen into the
high boot which is affected by young
men OF that district. What was he to
do? Take your boot off, said the
parson. The suspense and silence
were painful. The organist at the
priests bidding, struck up u "volun-
tary." The young man removed his
boot, the ring was found. also n hole
in the stocking. and the worthy minis
ter remarked, evidently with more
than the delay OF the ceremony In
mind: "Young man. it is time you
were married."

Winning a Wife In Darkest

A plot for new novel, with gloss
of novelty, illustrating the old-fangled
ways Of an ancient race seen by Stan
ley in Africa: He was q young Yam
buya chief, stalwart proud and black:
she was a Yambuya maiden, hand
some, graceful and swarthy. He was
brave in the field, bold in the hunt and.
merry at the feast; she was true-heart-
ed and gentle and could carol like
bird. He wooed her, but she was coy.
He almost won her but she shranE
from his embraces. He gave her
flowers for her hair, charms for her
fingers and handkerchiefs for
her wardrobe; she required him to
fetch her the skin of tiger, the jaw OF
q serpent and the head OF her rival
The next day she got them all and ere
the set of the sun they were welded.

No one doubts that Dr..
Sage's Catarrh Remedy really
cures Catarrh, whether tho
disease be recent or of long
standing, because the makers
of it clinch their faith in it
with a $500 guarantee, which
isn't a mere newspaper guar
antee, but "on call (" in a
moment.
That moment is when you
prove that its makers can't
cure you.
The reason for their faith
is this:
DR.. Sage's remedy has
proved itself the right cure
for ninety nine out Of one
hundred cases of Catarrh in
the Head, and the Worlds
Dlspensary Medical Assocla-
ton can afford to take the
risk of your being the one
hundredth.
The only question is-are
you willing to make the test,
if the makers are willing to
take the riskl
If SO, the rest is easy. You
pay your druggist 50 cents
and the trial begins.
If you're wanting the $500

BillboardS,

Certain spots in large cities that are
occupied with billboards for theates
posters and other advertising contriv-
ances are becoming as valuable as
though they held the finest buildings.
A London corner of land that has re-
NAMED waste for something like twenty
years, abuts on one OF the lofty palaces
that flank Victoria street, and it seems
an easy and natural thing to build
new wing to it. The owner was asked
whether it was not n sad thing for him
to havethis land, one of the most valu-
able sites in London, unoccupied. He
smiled a satisfied smile, pointed to the
billboards and mentioned the income
derived from the advertisements
When asked if he should build, "De
cidedly not" was the reply.

WITHOUT THE KINK.
A Discovery that Has Produced = Sensation In
Boston Colored Society.

Discovery that Has Produced . Sensation In
Boston Colored Society.
The colored women of Boston have
learned that it is possible to take
the kink out OF their hair, and there is
quite sensation over the discovery,
says the Globe. The rush to have
crisp locks straig htened is becoming
general, although but few OF those
who have successfully been smoothed
out are willing to admit that their
hair was ever otherwise than straight
and glossy.
The idea was introduced by young
colored woman from Virginia. She
herself has a glossy bang and black
hair as straight as that OF the late
Sitting Bull. She says her own hair
was formerly crisp and kinky. but
that an old Canadian woman told her
how TO make it straight and this in.
formation she is now imparting for n
consideration. The customer is told
first to wash her hair and come with
it well dried. She does SO, and then
the operation begins.
"A PISPato oeioh biAue ~ So
and OF the consistency OF cream is
taken from largo jar and rubbed
thoroughly into the hair, and. where
it was entirely lustreless before, it be-
gins to assume gloss. This Is
rubbed SO thoroughly into the scalp
that none of the hairs can fail to have
received portion. Then vigorous
brushing is resorted to. and the short
hair begins to lcngthen. II it were an
inch long before, it is now fully two
inches long. and il before it had been
done up in what old-fashioned south
ern people term .'plaits," it is now
ready to be rolled into u loose twist,
or loose coil at the back. The
operation takes about four hours and
is permanent in its effects. 1t gives
the colored woman q very Indian-like
appearance. and the few who will
admit having been treated claim they
did it merely to mako the labor OF
combing their hair SO much the easier.
