Cnnid and HYmep.

Some people of a thoughtful and con-
siderate tnrH OF mind have suggested to
the GOLD LEAF that Cupid, the mischiev-
Gus little God OF Love that plays such
havoc with the hearts OF both male and
female. being aided and abetted by the
ever ready torch bearer Hymen, the God
of Marriage, is being Outrageously over
worked in Henderson and vicinity, the
Oldest inhabitant not being able to recall
the time when there were so many mar
riages as during the past autumn and
winter 1t is more than a revival OF mat
rimony: it is an epidemic OF wedlock
which is sweeping the community. Gu
pids efforts have been ably seconded by
Hymen and the God o. Love and the
God OF Marriage, working together
tremendously, have prosecuted cam
paign for connubial felicity that has
broken all previous records. The cynics
may scott as they will, but there is no
human compact more pleasure producing,
particularly to the principals, than the
welded co-partnership. The we'll ordered
person NAV even as q witness extract
much enjoyment from these numerous
marriages He sees many happy fellow
being. with a bright bow of promise
bending over them, their paths flower
strewn and their senses beguiled by the
sweet fragrance of loves fruition.
These many matings promise much Tor
the future Hundreds of new homes will
be established and thousands OF prattllng
children will gladden. the hearts OF their
parents We will see families grow and
multiply out OF the marriages, and the
countryside will be peopled by the new
generation. The benefits to MANKIND
that will accrue from the married state
are incalculable, making due allowance
for misfit unions and disturbed marital
felicity. Where there are many mar
riages you find a healthy condition OF
social morals and you know that the
sanctity OF home is respected. All these
weddings bespeak a well ordered commu.
nifty and a people who are consecrated
to the best purposes OF advanced civil
lied life
Cupid and Hymen may be overworked ,
but as theirs is labor of love literally,
they will not protest though Cupid's bow
be twanging every hour in the day and
Hymen's torch be never extingulshed.
The hegira from the State of Single Sell
ishness to the more delightful State OF
Mrtrimony was never SO numerous IN

The Cold Weather and the Poor

Such protracted spell Of severe
cold weather as the present is quite
| unusual in this latitude, and this makes
it go all the harder with living crea-
lures of all kinds. Domestic animals,
beasts of the field and birds of the air
, as well as members of the human
family have suffered keenly from the
bitter cold, while in many instances
this has been intensified by the pangs
of hunger. Our people have taken
steps to relieve all cases ofactual want
and suffering in their midst and the
worst now appears to be over. How
ever, We can not predict what the
future state of the weather will be-
While exercising proper and COM
mendable spirit to help the really de-
serving, those who have interested
themselves in this matter have borne
in mind the fact that there are many
people whose poverty is the result of
laziness and shiftlessness, and not of
misfortune. They deserve nothing at
the hands of charitable people, and
should be left to the consequences of
their own shiftlessness. These people
can concoct narrowing tales Of misfor-
tunes, and conceal the real causes of
their poverty with ability which used
in a better way would ensure them
against want. If the benevolent public
was convinced that none of its money
would 90 to this class ofpeople the only
real beggars-it is probable it would
contribute with more pleasure. Then
again there has been complaint and
dissatisfaction from certain individuals
as to what was being done for them
or not done as they wanted-and this
has had the effect of dampening the
ardor of those who are charitably dis
posed in manner that may have pre-
vented them from doing as much as
they otherwise would. But this should
not stand in the way of their helping
those who actually need help at any
time. Be assured that no complaint
will come from the really needy and
deserving ones. And in the matter Of
dispensing charity as anything else it
is the fault Of the giver if he allows
himself to be imposed upon. While
saying this we speak in the interest of
all concerned realizing that at such
times as this through which we are
now passing pictures of the sufferings
of the poor must rise before the mind
of all not totally Indifferent.
Poor naked wretches, whereso' er you are,
That bide the pelting Of this pitiless storm!
How shall your houSeleSs heads and unfed |
sides,
Your loop'd and wiudow'd raggedness de- |
fend you
From seasons such As these?'
