WASHINGTON, Aug. 5.--A curious case
OF divorce has been brought out by a de-
cision of Assistant Secretary Reynolds IN
a pension appeal case. Susan Mcleod
was married 10 Daniel Mcleod IN Athens
county. Ohio. The husband served dur
ing the war. and shortly after IN 1873,
he obtained "A divorce from his wife ant
married again. lie died in $50. and
eleven years after his death, on pel-
ton Of the first wife. the decree Of di-
yorce was set aside by order OF the
court. The first wife then claimed a
pension. as a soldiers widow. Secretary
REYNOLDS reaches the conclusion that the
action Of the court. undertaking 10 annul
the soldiers divorce from the claimant,
was Illegal and the rejection of the claim,
on the ground that claimant Is not the
soldiers legal widow under the law OF
Ohio, is affirmed.

Rams Horn Wisdom.

When we get to heaven we will
find that we had something to do in
building it.
One of the saddest sights upon
which angels have to look is the
life of lonely child.
Whether we get to heaven or not
is to be decided by what we love,
not by what we know.
The world is full of people who
want to be good, but they are in no
hurry to commence.
The heart is the largest thing in
the world, because it takes more
than the world to fill it.
If you want to have power to lead
others, learn to control the man who
wears your own hat.
The woman who paints her cheeks
and the man who dyes his whiskers
never fool but one person.

A Few Literary Suggestions.

If you are down with blues, read
the twenty seventh Psalm.
Ifthere is a chilly sensation about
the heart, read the third chapter of
Revelations.
If you don't know where to look
for the months rent, read the thir-
ty-seventh Psalm.
If you feel lonesome and unpro-
tected, read the ninety first Psalm.
If the stovepipe has fallen down
and the cook gone off in pet, put
up the pipe, wash your hands, and
read the third chapter of James.
Ifyou find yourself losing conf
dence in men, read the thirteenth
chapter of first Corinthians.
If people pelt you with hard
words, read the fifteenth chapter of
John.
If you are getting discouraged
about your work, read Psalm 126
and Galatians, 6: Z 9.
If you are all out of sorts, read the
twelfth chapter of Hebrews.-The
Bible Reader.

were so fortunate as to be present as
one of the happiest events of their
