LIFE CONTRACTS.

Again the wedding bells have sounded
in our cities and four more lives have
been joined in holy Wedlock ''for better
or for worse, for richer or for poorer"
The ranks Of orr best single young men
and young women are rapidly being
thinned by the DEGREES of our pastors
as they pronounce the happy, loving
twains man and wife. Marriage Is a
sober contract, tho it always takes place
amidst gala festivities and the merri-
ment of well-wishing friends. Its
consequences are peace and happiness,
! sometimes sorrow and trouble. Nav
those whose union we chronicle to-day
ever bask i'll the sunshine of Il pure and
noble love, may their homes be Ravens
of rest and harmony, may they ever
guard carefully, providently the sacred
VOWS of marriage.
