The Marriage state No. In Danger.

Whenever any two persons care so
much for each other that they can
not happily live apart they viii be
welded i'll spite of all opposing in
fiuences. and perhaps those are the
only circumstances under which n
wedding ought ever TO take place.
Ii would not do to say with Hamlet
that 1--WE will have no more mar
riages. and that all who are now
single shall keep as they are but
we are justified IN thinking that the
ratio of matrimonial happiness is
likely 10 be increased according 10
the measure of marriages that are
brought about by reflective instead
of emotional means.
The system with which the critics
find SO much fault is not perfect, but
it is much better than they represent
il to be, or it would not have sur
vived so long. With all their flaw
picking they have not been able to
devise an acceptable substitute for it,
and until they are able to do so it
will continue to stand as the most
beneficent Of those great agencies
which regulate and control the af-
fairs OF civilization. st. Louis Globe

using Horse. wi,hou. shoes.

For two years have been using
an old marc Z years old, without
shoes. She had always been shod
before And for the last ten months
have used G=year old horse of
rather heavy build without shoes.
My brougham is ten and half hun
dredweight. and they draw it singly
in turns. had them shod three
times with "Charlier" shoes. Each
time the shoe was made shorter, and
| allowed the shoes to be worn until
they were thinner than a sixpence.
At the end of that time the middle
of the hoof had grown level with the
wall. Then the animal went with
out shoes altogether
There was IA little ameness once or
twice. which passed Off with a day .
rest each time. use the rasp about
once month to remove the jagged
edges of the hoofs and To keep the
hoofs in shape. The wall of the
hoofs becomes more than an inch in
thickness and wonderfully hard, and
not brittle as might have been
thought. though ] use no means to
keep them soft,
My horses go quite as well as with
shoes. and are much safer when the
sets are greasy and slippery. They
are not as safe ON ice as q sharpened
horse, but much safer than an I'M
sharpened horse. If a horse is used
unshod before the middle of the hoof
is filled up, the wall breaks away in
large pieces up TO the nail holes, and
he goes lame and must have rest un'

American Manufacturers Initiate Closely
the Well Known brands.
Simple folk who pride themselves
upon their gastronomic taste are
sometimes heard to Sneak scornfully
Of American cheeses, but perhaps in
nine cases out Of ten they eat and
praise MS an excellent example of the
foreign product cheese that never
crossed the ocean. Camembert and
Brie are the only soft cheeses that
are imported in considerable quaint
ty. and even these are manufactured
in the United States. You may buy
SO called Camembert cheese with
an elaborate foreign label, but as Il
matter Of fact little, if any, of the
imported article is sold here between
May and October Camembert usn-
ally reaches the New York market
ten or twelve days from the factory,
and some of it spoils on the way if
the weather be hot for the season.
II comes over in the swiftest ships
from Havre. and what is brought in
one ship is pretty well consumed be
fore another arrives,
Ii is confessed that the native
Camembert and Brie are not so good
as the foreign article, but the cheese
makers of New York and New Jer
sey have come at length to produce
admirable Roquefort and good imi
tations, if they may he so called, of
many other famous foreign cheeses
The French cheesemakers, with the
conservatism characteristic to rural
Europeans, have neglected to adaTt
their products TO the American mar
ket.
The Brie cheese from abroad, for
example, comes in large disk that
puts it beyond any but those who
consume it in large quantities, where
as the native Brie is made in small
cakes that may be purchased for
, family use The sale of Gorgonzola
I cheese, which is still imported, Is
much smaller than it would other
wise be if made in smaller parcels.
Only two or three English cheeses
, are now imported in large quantities,
and the so called English dairy
cheese is a native product
Meanwhile enormous quantities OF
American cheeses are exported to
/ Great Britain. Some English cheese
/ makers have taken to putting uT
} their products in jars instead Of blad
r ders in this way making them more
; easily preserved.

A Yer, Gleemy View Of Marriage.

Marriage is the only game of
chance which it is possible for both
players TO lose, said d. c. Goodwin,
confirmed bachelor who scorns
matrimonial joys and cares and takes
his ease at his inn. After much
careful play on both sides-after a
world of sugar coated deception and
premeditated misdeeds, one wins a
blank and the other BOBBY. After
long aud skillful angling in the mat
rimonial pool one lands stingaree
and the other a bullhead. One ex.
poets to wed a demigod, who only
hits the earth in high places, who
bumps his majestic head against the
stars the other to capture feather
less angel, who viii make his Edenic
bower one long drawn sigh of &C.
static bliss.
When the agony of courtship is
over when the stage play is ended
and Romeo and his Juliet get down
out of the foolish clouds and strike
the realities of life with a jolt-one
learns that he is tied to sloven,
who slouches around tho house with
her hair ON tins, dime novel and a
dirty collar; the other that she l.

travellers information on the thousand

regard to routes, rates, connections and
accommodations. 1t has been placed in
charge of an experienced man, supplied

1t is place to which all travellers may
apply for information and receive fair

and convenience to the travelling public.
All trains of the Burlington" enter and
depart from this station, and the intelli-

! Criminal Negligence.

Fortunately, railway locomotives are
not in the habit of starting unless
somebody opens the Unbelievable;
but one rolled out of yard at Cort-
land, n. Y, the other day, and began
flying up the track as if it were run
away horse. 1t was much more
dangerous, however, than run
away horse, because nobody could
hope to stop it. 1t ran until it
collided with IN express train which
was just crossing bridge, and in the
collision two men, the engineer and
the fireman Of the express train were
killed. The Waterman who had charge
of the runaway locomotive asserts that
nobody was near it when it started,
and that it moved out of the yard be-
fore anybody could climb into the cab
and stop it. That did not prevent Of
ficers from arrestirg him, however, on
a charge Of manslaughter. These Off
