A HEART AND HAND ROMANCE.
How . Sumas Man Advertised for .
Queen and Got Her.

SUMAs. April Especial. l-Sumas fur
nishes the latest Heart and Hand" ro-
nance, veritable matrimonial sensa ton,
which has set the denizens of the boun-
dairy city all agog. Some months since q
rancher owning 800 acres of land just adj
joining the corporation, becoming weary
of living alone and dieting seven days in
the week on cold ''spuds" and sour bis
cults. conceived the idea of advertising for
partner. He wanted cook and COM
panion, but more especially a woman who
had several thousand dollars, more or less.
Love wasn't sin it" particularly except
for incidental protection. He had done
his billing and cooling" in his earlier
years; now it was strictly business. Land
he had plenty of, but no funds to i'm
prove it. He reasoned that while the
Eastern market was overstocked with I'M
married women this country was literally
an untamed forest from lack of them. Ac-
cordingly this appeal was made through
"Heart and Hand" "a rancher of Wash
ington has prosperous home and wants
queen to come and take care of it." 1t
took. Responses and photographs began
pouring in upon him until the number of
candidates reached $50. He answered
S'Siy VIC, otsitluS uls AScuS anu
demands. He wanted affidavits and certi-
ficates as to character and amount ofready
money. Those without money need not
apply. Had intelligence and beauty been
his only aim he could have married scores
of times. and in one instance he came near
yielding to the earnest solicitation of $20.-
600, but when he read in the description,
weight 325 pounds, he was out on first
base. At length 5000 and with it an in
teiligent schoolmarm appeared on the
scene.
As he closely read over the credentials
he sprang from ischair shouting Eureka,
Epturi6us ununs' Negotiations followed,
and last week the lady put in an appear
ance. reni ridi pici. She saw in the union
home and half interest in a ranch in
the garden spot of Washington, while he
saw 5000 ready money and a bright,
good-looking wife. Sunday afternoon last
Rev. Mr. Vail united in marriage Mr..
Bowen, of Sumas, and Mrs. Lord, of Chi
cago, and happier couple of well-ad-
vanced turtle doves you never saw.

HARRISON'S VIEWS.
Continued from First page. }

Ana again mat paper says 1T is clearly the
interest of both employer and workmen to pro-
duce tin plates, tariff tariff, at a price
that will drive all competitors from the field
But. in spite of the doubts raised by the cleo
tons of 1890 and of the Vaccinations of foreign
plate industry has been established in the
United States, and the alliance between Welsh
producers and the Democratic party for its de-
struction viii not succeed.
Developm ent of the Industry.
The official returns to the treasury depart
ment of the production of tin and terne plates
in the United States during the last fiscal year,
show a total production of 1S240,S1 pounds,
and a comparison of the first quarter, SIT,
as2 pounds, with the last. S,000.on pounds,
shows the rapid development of the industry.
Over 5000 600 pounds during the last quarter
We're made from American black plates the
remainder from foreign plates. Mr.. Aver,
the treasury agent in charge, estimates, as the
result of careful inquiry, that the production
of the current year will be 100000 pounds,
and that by the end of the year our production
will be at the rate of 200 10000 pounds per an
mum.
Reference to Pearl Buttons.
Another industry that has been practically
created by the Mckinley bill is the making of
pearl buttons. Few articles coming to from
abroad were so distinctly the product of starv-
alton wages. But without unduly extending
this letter, l cannot follow in detail the influ-
ences Of the tariff law of 1890. 1t has trans
planted several important industries and es-
tablished them here and has revived or en-
larged all others. The act gives to the miners

In Which somebody Gets Few Whacks
The Veterans.
1t has been the purpose of the administra-
ton to make its foreign policy not a matter of
partisan politics, but of patriotism and ma
tional honor, and have very great gratidca-
ton in being able to state that tie Democratic
members of the committees of foreign affairs
responded in a true American spirit. L have
not hesitated to consult freely with them about
the most confidential and delicate affairs, and
here frankly confess my obligation for needed
cooperation. They did not regard a patient
but firm insistence upon American rights and
upon immunity from insult and injury for our
citizens and sailors in foreign ports as policy
of Irritation and b Uster. They did not be-
ieve as some others seem to believe that to be
a Democrat one must take the foreign side OF
every international question, if a Republican
administrative is conducting the American
side.

Inc my surprise to find it ended up with
. recommendation to use DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets. Nevertheless, being
a great sufferer from sick headache, l
determined to try them, and, to my great
joy, found prompt relief, and by their
protracted use, complete immunity
from such attacks. Pierces Pellets
often cure sick headache in an hour.
They are gently laxative or actively
sathartic, according to size Of dose.
AS pleasant laxative, take one each
night on retiring. For adults, four act
as an active, yet painless, cathartic.
