Gallo.saYM Mccoy.

Wednesday night, December 9TH, 1892
in the presence Of large number Of in
vited friends and relatives, on beauti
fully decorated veranda arranged ny
dainty hands, the solemnizaiion Of the
rights Of matrimony was quietly per
formed by Rev. j. g. Crabtre between
Mr.. John +. Galloway and Mrs. Matte
Mccoy. Immediately after the ceremony
the bride and groom were followed by
the attedants, Miss Lou Galloway and
Mr.. Oscar McGavock, TO the parlor where
congratulations and quite a number OF
handsome presents were received from
their many friends.
Thursday the happy pair repaired TO
home Of the groom's parents, Mr.. VIM.
s. Galloway, and were soon ushered into
a dining room where table all loaded
down with good things TO eat awaited
them under magnificent evergreen boughs
Of ferns, mistletoe and myrtle, prepared
by none other than Mrs. Galloway in her
own gentle way.
The bride is one Of Irvington's most
cstimable and accomplished ladies.
The groom is a most eminent young man
and will be greatly missed in the vicinity
in which he lives, but our loss will be
Harned's gain as he contemplates en-
gaging in business there soon.
May their lives be as peaceful and gentle as the
flowing stream,
And their lives be no more painful than the
awakening Of pleasant dream.
Is the wish OF their friend.
Cora.

Our own sex is incapable Of any such by
play aside from the main business Of life;
but women-be they of what earthly
rank they may, however gifted with in
tellect or genius or endowed with beau
ty-have always some little handiwOrk
ready to fill the tiny gap Of every vacant
moment-a needle is familiar TO the fin
gers of them ala queen no doubt, plies
il on occasions; the woman poet can use
il as adroitly AZ her pen. The woman's
eye, that has discovered new idea, turns
from its glory to send the polished little
instrument cleaning along the hem Of
her 'kerchiei, or to darn casual fray in
her dress. The slender thread of silk or
cotton keeps them united with the small,
familiar, gentle interest Of life, the con-
tinually operating influences Of which do
80 much for the health OF the character
and carry off what would otherwise be
a dangerous accumulation of morbid SEN
sibility. A vast deal OF the human sym
pathy runs along this electric line,
stretching from the throne TO the wicker
chair Of the humblest seamstress. 1t is
a token of healthy and gentle character
istics, when women Of high thoughts and
accomplishments love to sew; especially
us they are never more at home with
their own hearts than when so occupied"

He has Surely Been on the Inside

A Kansas man, who had been afIiliat-
ing with the Third party Of that State for
the past few years, having severed his
allegiance thereto, thus briefly gives his
reasons for so doing:
Because it is run by lawyers without
clients.
BY doctors without patients.
by preachers without pulpits.
by women without husbands.
BY farmars without farms.
BY financiers without finance.
BY educators without education.
And by statesmen without a job

And selling out his gang.
They shouted but once more aloud,
"JOhn Henry, must we stay?
We're penned up with this Third class crowd
And want TO get away"
