Matrimonial Blunders.

Of all the mistakes that were ever made since the first and most disastrous blunder in the garden of Eden, there has never been anything more fraught with mischief and unhappiness to the human family than a marriage entered into simply because somebody desired it. To marry for such reason alone is a sort of moral suicide, and those who are guilty of such folly sometimes live to repent it most bitterly and often times die by their own hands because they know of no other way in which to right the wrong they have unwittingly done. In the opinion of the New York Ledger it may be questioned whether it is not much more injudicious to urge marriages than to prevent them. In the one case, the wretchedness may be slower in coming, but it is none the less sure and far-reaching in it's evil effects. 1t takes vast deal of grace for people to live together in harmony the year in and the year out, and there must be some natural attraction or something more than somebody's whim or conven fence to keep things even and preserve that unity and sympathetic considera- tion that are absolutely necessary tc make home-life worth the living Therefore, whatever else you do, never urge a marriage. Marriage Is one ot the things that must be desired, anc that ardently, by the contracting par tiAs No one haa a YiOhk t0 interfere and to do so is to multiply sorrows fo, those whose affairs are meddled with fl this way.

Properly Amended.

Some young women in a western town recently organized an "Anti- Chewing Society,"" the first article in the constitution being as follows: ''The object of this society shall be to discourage the chewing of tobacco by men," Things went on swimmingly for some time, the meetings giving the girls an admirable opportunity to dis cuss the latest fashions. But one even ing, when a storm kept a number of the more enthusiastic members from at tending, a few mischievous members present amended the first article of the constitution so that 1t read: "The ob- ject of this society shall be to discour- age the chewing of gum by women" :" At first the absentees were inclined to raise row, but they finally entered into the spirit of the thing and accepted a compromise, to the effect that the society discourages the chewing of to- bacco, gum or toothpiclzs.

The City Was Without water-Nattonal
 Tube Works to the Reacua.

The City Was without water-National
 Tube Works to the Rescue.
 MCKEEsPoRT, Pa., Nov. 15.-At o'clock last evening fire broke out at the corner of Jenny Lind and Eleventh streets and in less than half an hour six houses were in flames and the fire rapidly spreading
 As the city was without water, the pumps at the water works having given out early in the day and the river over nve blocks away, nothing could be done to check it. After ten houses had been consumed the National Tube Works came to the rescue by pumping water into the city's mains from their works, thus en- abling the firemen to bring three lines of hose to play upon the now furious flames.
 With the assistance of citizens a num- Der of houses were torn down, and, after hard struggle the firemen succeeded in checking the flames and soon had tho fire under control. Had it not been for the assistance of the National Tube Works, at least three or four blocks would have been in ashes by midnight.
 The fire originated in a grocery store caused by the explosion of a lamp which set fire to 8 barrel of oil. The loss is es. timated at $60,000. Insurance small.

HEART FAILURE.
The Warnings Are PIain-Beware

The Boston Record, speaking of the death from heart failure of Senator Plumb, Senator Zach Chandler, Con- gressman Ray, Secretary Windom and scores of other prominent men who have died from the same trouble, asks: "What is this heart failure2 Is there any escape from it, or is it the invitable result of the dangerously high tension under which SO many of us are living.
 No hour passed that some one does not drop dead of Heart failure. The Record has struck the keynote of the cause, but there is a remedy. The first symptoms of this fatal disease may be slight, but do not fail to heed them if you value your life.
 A nervous, weak, weary feeling, gid diness, swimming of head, strange, faint feelings, trembling, sinking sensation, coldness of feet and legs, huttering or palpitation of heart, feeling of apprehen- sion, anxiety, drowsiness daytimes, sleeplessness nights,

Neglect of these symptoms will result in heart failure. spasms of neuralgia of the heart, or death.
 The grip, owing to it's weakening effect upon the nerves, has left thousands up no thousands of weak hearts in it's train.
 If you use the great nerve and heart remedy, Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, wben the first symptoms appear, it will prevent all danger of heart failure. It is purely vegetable and harmless, and it's use offers the only sure hope of curing this terrible dssease and averting the fatal result. Druggists sell it for $1. .00.
 "I was troubled with heart disease. Some mornings would be surprised when awoke and found myself alive, for expected sudden death any mo- ment. I bought a bottle of Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, and must say that it has rapidly brought me to health and strength. I have now taken four bottles and call myself cured, and must certainly say that it is the most wonderful remedy for the nerves, brain and heart that has ever been dis. zz-

DEFEAT comes hard to some of our dear republican exchanges. Such acri- mony and bitterness as they have dis played since the election is uncalled for No national disaster will follow the in auguration of Grover Cleveland, and the "calamity howlers" should take their defeat with better grace. The people will have to 'accustom them selves to announcements to the effect that orders for new mill in this or that place have been cancelled on account of Cleveland's election. In a good many instances it will doubtless be found that the orders were given and widely ad- vertised during the campaign. Wher- ever these orders were genuine it is not likely that they will be permanently countermanded.

THE Lebel rifle, with which the French infantry in Dahomey are armed, appears to be effective. There was a prediction that the small calibre of the Lebel bullet was going to give the French soldier an advantage, and the examples of its force, speed and general ueadliness now cited fulfil what was predicted. In morning attack of Dahomans from the cover of a wood, the Lebels told so well that even when the natives were thrown back on the woods, the trees did not shelter them. Bullets pierced the largest trees and killed men behind them. The rending action of the bullets is also reported to have been terrible, and one would con, clude must be reckoned a new horror of war when the Lebel rifle is used. The wounds inflicted were not tiny, clean incisions, as it was anticipated they would be, but looked like the work of explosive bullets.

CANADA has a difficult question to de- eide. That is whether it is treason to Great Britain for a Canadian citizen to advocate annexation to the United States in peaceful! friendly way. It will probably be question to be settled by a majority of the people of the dominion. If only a few here and there want to join the United States, then it would be treason, but if a great majority of the people decide they want it, then they will probably get up and %.

A REPORT from the minister resident and consul general to Liberia recently received speaks very highly of the pros poets of the negroes who have recently emigrated thither from the United States A liberal piece of land is allot- ted to each immigrant, and they are cared for by the colonization society for six months, by which time 1t Is expect ed that they will have raised enough to be self-supporting. A few of the negroes finding that they could not get rich at once, and were expected to work for their living, were disappointed and re- turned to the United States. The rest are satisfied, and have turned their at tention to planting coffee, which in a few years will yield them a fine income. One man who went out a few months ago now has a good house built and five thousand young coffee trees.

rouchy People.

In reference to very disagreeable class of people a shrewd observer of human nature writes as follows:
 '"There are people-yes, many people always looking for sights. They cannot carry on the daily intercourse of the family without finding that some offense is designed. They are as touchy as hairtriggers. If they meet an ac- quaintance who happens to be pre- occupied with business, they attribute his distraction in some mode personal to themselves, and take umbrage ac- cordingly. They lay on others the fruit of their irritability. Indigestion makes them see impertinence in everyone with whom they come in contact. In- nocent persons, who never dreamed of giving offense, are astonished to find some irrelevant word or momentary taciturnity mistaken for an insult. To say the least, the habit Is unfortunate. It far wiser to take the more charitable view of our fellow-beings and not sup the neglect is open and direct. After all, too. life takes it's hue, in great degree, from the color of our own mind. If we are frank and generous, the world will treat us kindly; if, on the contrary, we are suspicious, men will learn to be cold and cautious to us. Let person get the reputation of being 'touchy, and everybody is under restraint, and in this way the chances of an imaginary offense are vastly increased"

IT will take a special train of fourteen cars to transport the ten logs from which the flag poles are to be made for the Washington state building at the Worlds fair. Each log is equal to the length of seven flat cars, and by an in genius arrangement of raised block working on a pivot the weight will come upon the two end cars, those in the center being empty. This is neces- sary in order to go around curves in the road without breaking either the logs or the cars. While the empty cars curve around bend in the track the pivots are also turned, thus allowing the logs to retain the same relative position to each other. When the curve is passed the pivots again throw the logs back to their original position. Owing to their enormous weight, two of the logs will have to be loaded separately.
