Coal Will Get Scarce.

Those who have had to buy largely of
coal at high prices during the winter may
gather cold comfort from the fact that
posterity will have to use some other
kind of fuel. Herr Nasse, the official
mining expert of Prussia, holds that the
next Ave or six centuries will exhaust the
coal supplies OF Europe; that the supply
Of Austro- Hungary, France and Belgium
will peter out first, that of Great Britain
next, with that OF America close third.
In the meantime the existing supply Of
coal will enable the Saint Paul & Duluth
Railroad to speed luxurious trains
smoothly between handsome terminals,
as in the past. In this manner this route
has justly earned the title Of Duluth
Short Line, and the popular esteem as
the best line to take when travelling be-
tween Saint Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth,
West Superior, Saltwater, Taylors Falls
and other points Of interest and import
ance. Its trains are so convenient as to
appeal to the business man as we'll as to
the tourist, and the close connections
with all trains are decided advantage.
For these reasons the Duluth Short Line
has been famed as the popular route, and
each year strengthens it's popularity.
Always take the Duluth Short Line.

Wedding Rings.

Wedding rings were used both by the
Greeks and Romans, but then only at
the ceremony of betrothal and not that
of marriage. The Anglo Saxon bride
groom at the betrothal gave q we'd, or
/ pledge, and a RUG was placed on the
maiden's right hand, where it remained
until marriage, and was then transferred
to the left. During the reins of George
/. and George RI. the wedding ring was
often worn on the thumb. The placing
Of the ring on the book is remnant of
the ancient custom of Blessing the ring
by sprinkling holy water in the form of
cross, and this is still done in the Roman
Church.
One of the earliest forms Of rings Was
the gemei, or double ring, and this was
used as pledge before marriage. They
were generally made in three parts, and
broken in the presence of a.witness who
retained the third part. In Germany,
Sweden, Norway and Denmark, it was
com non custom for the engaged couple
each to give to the other plain gold
ring, muca resembling wedding ring.
In the last century wedding rings were
frequently inscribed with posies. DR..
John Il .onas, woo wa, Bishop of LIN
coin in 1853, married four times. The
motto or posy ON the wedding ring at his
fourth marriage was: *...e
''If / survive
Til make them five
King Henry VILE. gave Anne of Cloves
a ring with the posy:
God send me we'll to keep.
1t was general custom in the Middle
Ages for the bridegroom to place the
ring first on the thumb OF the bride, then
on her second finger, and then on hsr
third, at the name of each person of the
Trinity, "leaving It," as the rubic Directs,
on her fourth finger at the word Amen,
thus signifying by action, not less than
by word, that he was undertaking the
duties of the marriage state, Tin the
name of the Father, of the s N, and of
the Holy Ghost" 49,. 10.

THE SISTER OF CHARITY.

n
h She once was q lady of honor and wealth,
+ Bright glow'd on her features the roses OF
health:
Her venture was blended Of silk and of gold,
Aud her motion shook perfume from every
fold;
Z Joy reyeTd around her-love shone at her side,
And gay was her smile, as the glance of q
bride;
And light was her step in the mirth sounding
hall
When she heard Of the daughters of yincentds

That calpd her to live for the suffering race;

But gliding at dusk to the wretch's retreat.
Forgot in the halls is that high sounding name,
For the sister of Charity bushes at fame;
Forgot ere the claims of her riches and birth,
For she barters for Heaven the glory of EARTH
Those feet, that to music could gracefully
move,
Now bear her alone on the mission of love;
Those hands. that once dangled the perfume
and gem.
Are tending the helpless, or lifted for them,
That voice, that once echo'd the song of the
yain,
Now whispers relief to the bosom of pain;
And the hair that was shining with diamond
and pearl
Is wet with the tears of the penitent girl.
Her down bed pallet-her trinkets bead,
Her Iustre---one taper that serves her to read;
Her sculptor-the crucifx nailed by her bed;
Her paintings-one print of the thorn crowned
Her cushion he pavement that wearies her
knees;
Her music--tlle psalm, or the sigh OF disease:

Like Him whom she loves, to the mansions of
grief,
She hastes with the tidings Of Joy and relief.
She strengthens the weary, she comforts the
weak, =
And soft is her voice in the ear of the sick;
Where want and affection on mortals attend
The Sister of Charity there is friend.
Unshrinking where pestilence scatters his
breath,
Like an angel she moves mid the vapor OF
death,
Where rings the loul musket. and flashes the
sword, T,
Unfearing she walks, for she follows the Lord
How sweetly she bends Ger each plague-tainted
face
With looks thpt are lighted with hottest grace;
How kindly she dresses each suffering limb,
For she sees in the wounded the image of Him.
Behold her, we worldly: behold her, We vain!
Who shrink from the pathway of virtue and
pain;
Who yield up to pleasure your nights and your
days,
Forgetful of service, forgetiul of praise.
We lazy philosophers-self seeking men
Ye freside philantrophists, great at the pen,
How stands in the balance your eloquence
weighed
With the life and the deed of that high-born
maid" GERALD GRIFFIN.
