True Marriage.

A happy wedlock is a long falling in
love. l know young persons, says
Theodore Parker, think love belongs
only to the brown hair and plump,
round, crimson cheek. So it does for
its beginning, just as Mount Washing
ton begins at Boston Bay. But the
golden marriage is part of love which
the bridal day knows nothing Of
Youth is the tassel and silken flower of
love age is the full corn, ripe and
solid in the ear. Beautiful is the morn
ing of love with its prophetic crimson,
violet, saffron, purple and gold, with
its hopes of days that are to come.
Beautiful also is the evening OF love,
with its glad remembrance and its
rainbow side turned towards heaven ~
we'll as earth.

The death of a soldier is recorded
in 1904. who had five wives, aud his

icred how anybody could tell them

And suppose the man shodld say.
Yes, thank YOU. and take them, and
suppose one dish should in this way
work along the table until IL was
alongside the other; or, for that mat

Tra,pns Allowed to Ride Free.

Vice President Crockcr, Of the
Southern Pacific, has announced that
his company does not propose 10
make any fight against the hordes OF
tramps who are beating their way
westward on freight trains. lie has
arrived at the conclus on that IL is
useless TO unload the ticketle.s tour
lists because they get aboard again in
sufficient numbers 10 overpOwer the
trainmen. Therefore Mr.. Crocker
believes time can be saved and blood
shed averted by allowing the tramps
20 ride so long as they are peaceable.
No proclamation TO that effect has
been issued from the company head

Curious American Epuses.

Among the %, 900 people in the
United States there are probably not

aware that at the mouth Uf the Mis-.
sissippi there is little village bJlIt
upon wooden piles standing far out
jim the water. This village, which is
called BaliZe, is reached from the
mainland by canoes or boats, and its
inhabitants have 20 climb a Kind Of
pole ladder to get TO the doorway o!
their homes. This is probably the
only place IN the United States IN
which 'pile-dwellings" occur; bat al
along the Venezuela coast and at the
mouths Of the OrinOCO and Amazon
similar villages are frequently met
with, many OF them being inhabited

These strange inhabitants were first
