DIED TOGETHER.

A Recent Ceremony Recalls a Dramatic In
cident of the Franco-German War.
A ceremony has just taken place at
Sainte Genevieve des Bois, in the Seine
et-Oise, which recalls painfully dra-
matte incident in the Franco-German
war. The conscripts of the department
assembled to place wreaths on the graves
of Andre Delorme, young French sol
dier, and his sweetheart, Jeanne Bernier.
Delorme, who was only 10 years of age,
had been wounded in the war at Choisy-
leroy, SO that, having been invalided,
he returned to his native place. The
Germans were then occupying Sainte
Genevieve.
The first place he went to, so the
French account runs, was the home of
his sweetheart. On approaching it he
was surprised to hear her screaming.
The door was shut, so that he burst open
a window and thus got into the house,
when he found the girl struggling with
a drunken German officer. Mad with
rage, the young Frenchman shot the
German, and for this he was seized and
summarily shot, without even a court
martial trial.
Half dozen German soldiers placed
him against a wall and pointed their
rifles at him. At that moment the young
girl rushed forward toward her sweet
heart, and the two lovers were shot dead
together. Their tomb bears the inscrip-
tons: "Andre Delorme, died for his
country, 1870. Jeanne Bernier, killed by
the enemy, 1S70."-Paris Herald.

Monkeying With the Printing

indicate that the wedding of the czaro-

be the most gorgeous ceremony Of the
kind witnessed in Europe for many
years. Every reigning family will be
represented, and all the Asiatic poten-
tates owning to the czar's sovereignty
will send delegations and special missions
to st. Petersburg with costly gifts. The
shopkeepers at the Russian capital and

profitable season of this generation, and

cording to current report, has responded
nobly to the family call by promising
5000 toward the brides dowry.-Mos-

Deafness Cannot be Cured

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure Deafness and that is
by constitutional remedies, Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing
and when it is entirely closed Deafness
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroy
ed forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.

Out of the fable ages old,
For drinking it the old grow young;

The draught meant DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, of course. 1t is a

Leprosy In Germany.

There is in the German empire a hot
bed of leprosy. According to the inves-
LEGATIONS of the imperial board of health,
whose attention was directed to the fact
by physician, there are at present 10
lepers in the district of Mamel, eastern
Prussia. Eight other lepers died in 1877.
Six Of these Is cases were single persons,
The other 10 extended over five families.
Of those who died, 2 suffered from the
disease 8 years; others IS, 10, 9, z and
year. The first case occurred, as far as
can be found out, 20 years ago. Only one
of the Is had ever left home, so the origin
Of the disease cannot be found.-Berlin
