Married seventy-four Years.

Seventy-four years ago Jonathan Thay-
er was married to Ruth Penniman by the
Rev. Jonas Perkins, pastor of what is
now the Union church of East Braintree
and Weymouth. Mr.. Thayer was 90 on
the 9th Of April Mrs. Thayer will be
90 on the Goth Of June. Mr.. Thayer
comes from the old Braintree stock Of
Thayers, his mothers and fathers an
cestors having come from the parish of
Thornberry in Gloucestershire, Eng
land, seven generations ago.
Mr.. and Mrs. Thayer have been the
parents of seven children, of whom four
are now living. The worthy couple live
in house built by themselves 90 years
ago. An unmarried son and daughter
live with them, but Mrs. Thayer refuses
to give up the management of the house
to her daughter. She does nearly all the
cooking, but allows her daughter to do
the heavier work. Mr.. Thayer is still
quite active, but is troubled some with
deafness. He shaves himself regularly
twice a week and saws and splits all the
wood used in the house.-Boston Trav-

CURING CONSUMPTION.
The Remarkably simple Method Of IA Ger
man Physician Near New York.

The Remarkably simple Method Of Ger
man Physician Near New York.
There lives not far from New York a
German physician for whom it is claimed
that he can perform miracles in 80 far
as he can cure that hitherto incurable
disease-consumption of the lungs. DR..
R is man of profound learning,
who has devoted his whole life to his
profession and has had wonderful sue
cess. His treatment of consumption is
too simple to be very popular, as the av-
erage patient is not satisfied if he or she
be not continually dosed with powerful
medicines.
This dosing DR.. R absolutely re-
fuses to do, as he gives no drugs what
ever, but confines his efforts to assisting
nature to do her own work. An inter
esting case which he is now treating is
that of Mrs Nj, who has suffered for
years with consumption. Last winter
she very nearly died, and this winter her
physician despaired of keeping her alive
till spring. She is a woman feet
inches in height and of rather large
frame, and eight weeks ago she weighed
81 pounds.
She suffered agonies and even looked
forward to death as a blessed release
Her family physician, who is progress
i've in his ideas and had become much
interested in DIR. R. and his treat
ment, persuaded Mrs. NJ to allow the
latter doctor to undertake her cure. She
did SO very unwiIlingly, as she had little
faith in his power to do her good.
DR.. R insisted upon her staying in
bed all the time and drinking a cup Of
warm milk every half hour, this being
her only nourishment, and thus began
an ordeal which is not yet ended
The milk caused continual nausea and
later looseness of the bowels, and it re-
quired great deal Of pluck to keep on
taking it. Yet from almost the first day
of this treatment Mrs. NJ began to
improve and now looks like different
person. In eight weeks she has gained
II pounds in flesh, her eyes are bright,
her color is good. Her cough has great
ly diminished, the character of the mat
ter she raises is changed, and there is
much less of it. To her friends her i'm
provement seems a miracle.
DR.. R says that in a few months
time she will be entirely well-that is,
part of her lungs will be useless, as it is
out of his power to replace the diseased
part with new and healthy tissue, but
she will have plenty of healthy lung
left to breathe with, her cough will be
gone, and she viii be well and strong.
This is not a picturesque story, but an
absolute fact.-New York Tribune.

A story About General Morgan.

Three men were telling war stories yes
terday, when one Of them related an incl
dent of General John Morgan's career that
has probably never been in print before,
Morgan was regarded by the Union sol
diers as a holy terror" said one of the fa-
nous cavalry leaders men, and stories
had been spread among them reciting how
be shot down his captiyes and gave mercy
to none. On the contrary he was kind
hearted, as those who knew him can attest.
He was fond of joke, though On one of
our raids we captured about % Union men
near Murfreesboro, Tenn. They expected
nothing else than to be shot down after the
general had first eaten good meal. They
began to talk about it so eXcitedly that
some one reported the matter to General
Morgan.
walking from his tent he ordered the
prisoners TO be drawn up in line. Then
mounting his horse he rode to the center Of
the small column and said to them that
they must be acquainted with his methods
Of getting rid of prisoners, and he personal
ly regretted thGt such fine looking body
Of men had fallen into the hands Of a MAJ
who, it was known 10 them all, sacrificed
human life as though he were shooting

line grew weaker and weaker as the Eoner-
ais speech wore on until he finally burst
into tears, eXclJimilg:
"'Oh, for GotJs sake, v0t will mine fam

ing up to the little Dutchman, he placed
his hand on his head and said;

A VALENTINE.

Accept, dear wife. this little token.
And If between tho lines you seek
You'll find the love I've often spoken
The love I'll always love TO speak.
Our little ones are making merry
With unco ditiics rhymed in jest,
But In these lines, though awkward very,
The genuine articles expressed
You are 30 fair and sweet and tender,
Dear, brown eyed little sweetheart mine.
AS when, callow youth and slender,
asked TO be your valentine.
What though these years of ours be fleetingi
What though the years Of youth be flown2
I'll mock old Kronos with repeating,
I'm love my love and her alonel"
And when fall before his reaping,
And when my suffering epcech is done,
Think not my love Is dead or sleeping,
But that it waits for you TO come.
So take, dear love, this little token,
And IL there speaks in any line
The sentiment I'll fain have spoken,
Say, will you kiss your valcntine2

Alexander Dumas, the great French
story writer, was very fond and proud Of
his son Alexander, who also became a
famous author. His regard for him was
increased apparently, by the fact that
the son had a very good appreciation Of
the value of money-a quality which the
father did not possess in the slightest de-
gree.
A recent writer Of recollections relates
that he once visited Dumas at st. Ger
main. He had just been bitten in the
hand by his dog and was unable to write,
but was debating a novel.
His son went ont as the visitor came in.
Alexander has just left me-" said the
father. "What good fellow that boy

He Made a Mistake.

To J. S.--We think that the young
lady's indignation has just foundation
in your impertinence-that is, if your
own statement Of the affair be taken as
the basis Of facts. You had no business
to hint that she used cosmetics even if
you did honestly think So" Her ring
ing for a glass Of water and Offering that
and her handkerchief to you to enable
you to test the matter on the spot by
washing her cheeks was a masterstroke.
She did a sensible thing in putting the
question beyond doubt by rubbing her
face, when you declined her offer, with
her damp handkerchief, and then did a
most becoming thing when she rang for
the servant to show you out, stating that
you wished to retire. That was well
done. Such a spirited girl as that can
have no need of cosmetics. You made a
mistake and must now abide the conse-
quences. That seems to US about the
whole sum and essence of the matter
