No yards of illusion

But the bride was most imply
And tastefullyd rest,
In the style and tho color
That suited her best;
And Fred, in a whisper--he stood at my side
Said. Il never behold a moro beautiful bride!'

The fact, l presume,
But all my attention
Mas fixed on the groom,
Whose face SO reflected
The JOY of his heart

My own took a part
And, oh! It was a scene we remember with pride
Fol-. Fred was the bridegroom and l was the
bride. N. Y. Ledger.

Inflammation caused by it, together with
that terrible backache and great weak

ing transplanted to another world, and
to be relieved in such a short time and
by such apparently simple means is more
than l can comprehend. You ask to
publish my case. l would be glad to let
you do so, but my husband objects to my
name going into print. You may, how
ever, publish my case without the name,
and refer any lady patients to me, and
will only be to glad to tell them how you
cured me after so many others had failed.

work in my daily devotions and pray an

Piles of jewelry claimed to be worth
$1,000. The United States supreme court
lays it down as law that the railroad
company's check and liability cover only
the personal effects of the drummer-his
shirts, collars, cuffs, etc. As for the
destroyed jewelry, he and his employers
must arrange that matter between them
selves; it is no concern of the common
carrier, who is only liable for personal
baggage of the traveller, and not for any
thing beyond that unless freight has
been paid for it. This is an important
decision to business men and drummers.

Under the title: "Disheartening Condi-
tions," r. G. Dun & Co.'s and E. Rus
sell & Co.'s Weekly Review of trade
dated, June 2, says: "More dishearten-
ing conditions have prevailed during the
past week and those who saw the begin
ming of permanent recovery in the better
tone week ago are disappointed. The
money markets have been closer, espec-
tally in the interior and manufacturing
centres, and trade is more affected than
before. Some important failures have
occurred, including one bank at Milwau-
kee. Gold has gone out again in large
amounts, exports for this week being
about s., 100000 and the treasury gold
reserve has been drawn down to about
800, 100000. In nearly all department,
of trade uncertainty about the future
has depressing influence which is now
clearly perceived in decrease of new
business, and while most manufacturing
works are yet employed on full orders,
as these run out, the number of works
closed increases. Boston reports disap-
pointing trade, in dry goods not equal to
expectations and while the better tone
is sustained in cottons there are some
concessions. Woollen goods show no
improvement. Orders for boots and
shoes are slow, and some factories are
closed, others are working part time,
buyers are resisting the advance asked.

world one of its most distinguished
men. Society and the dramatic profes-
sion alike realize sense of sorrow at
the closing of so heightened and so hon
orable career. By the completeness of
his art, the benevOlence of his nature,
the catholicity of his tastes and the ear
nest endeaVor to use his genius for the
bettering of mankind, Edwin Booth
maintained the friendship and esteem of
several generations of the foremost men
in literature and the arts, among whom
he possessed dignity of personal char
acter similar to that which he enjoyed in
the drama. He was in disposition kind
ly, in manner unaffected, and in knowl-
edge versatile. The renown of his pow
ers was not confined to his own country,
but was general throughout the world.
Although an American he belonged to
mankind, and was claimed by Europe as
by his countrymen as triumph of art,
whose influence was universal over civil
zation. He was an example Of many ad-
mirable qualities, both as an actor and a
man. He conferred new honors on the
profession to which he belonged, and
left the world enriched by having lived
in it. His talents were not only of in
calculable benefit to the guild of the
drama, but to the audiences that smiled
with his humor and were affected by his
pathos."
