a Queer Silver Wedding Performance.

Queer Silver Wedding Performance.
Thursday was the twenty-fifth ami
versary of an Augusta couples marriage
On that morning the husband. upon
awakening asked his wife how they
should celebrate their silver we'd
ding. The wife did not suggest any
particular observance of the day. The
husband then said: Shall we re1narry
or separate" The wife said it was i'm
material to her either way, and what
suited him would satisfy her. He then
said he would just as leave part as not.
The wife acquiesced, and she packed up
her trappings and left the house, and
they have remained apart ever since
and neither have sought the other OF
proposed reunion or any other sort OF
celebration. Augusta News.

Fetching bonnet Pins.

The little flower pins used to fasten
the strings to women's bonnets are quite
fetching, especially the violets and pink
rosebuds on black velvet. But don't
make the mistake one woman did and
wear a violet pin with hat trimmed
with pink roses. Even the pin should
correspond with the hat.-Good House

GOOD HEALTH.
1t Is a Far Better Heritage Than Gold or
Title.

It Is Far Better Heritage Than Gold or
Title.
The body may be looked on as living
machine, delicate and complicated in
structure, made to run hundred wears
or so, but liable, by bad management,
to be disarranged and brought to un.
timely destruction. That drunkards,
debauchees, gluttons. and the devotees
of sensual pleasures generally, do not
live out half their days, is plain to
every one.
But all continuous physical trans
gression, however innocent it may
seem, is followed by a like retribution.
Such is the punishment which overtakes
multitudes who overwork their brains
and underworld their muscles; of nA a
few who waste vital energy with anxi-
ETY., fret and unstinted care; of many
who overlook the great law of their
physical being that makes daily re-
cuperation depend on the interchange
of work and rest. Even ministers of
the Gospel not unfreqaently allow WELL
meant faithfulness TO end in fatal
mental strain.
many forms of physical transgression
is its tendency to weaken the vital
stamina of the transgressors offspring.
The least child can ask of its progen-
itor ts a fair chance of life. To squander
the vital inheritance of ones offspring
Is vastly worse than to squander it's
large ancestral estate.
We can have no more valuable DOS
session than a good her edity-an inher-
itance of longevity; and If this has not
descended to us, it is generally because
ancestors, more or less remote, have
squand cred it.
Such an inheritance gives constitu-
tional vigor, keeps it's possessor safe
amid almost every form of microbic dis
ease, secures the needed recuperative
energy in case of attack. makes life
worth living up to the normal end, rem
ders old age green and sunny, and keeps
up intellectual activity to the last Mr..

After all, care is necessary to the pro-
longation of life; not anxious care, but
