May and MatrlmOny.

The pagans had a myth that "only
bad women marry in May" They had
another. that if the marriage did take
place the couple would live most unhap-
PLY, and children born Of the marriage
If it was not hopelessly rendered bar
rem by thus slapping the fates in the
facc-would be deformed or imbecile.
With prizes like that in prospect, it is
not much wonder that the ignorant and
superstitious taboo May marriages, but
there is no excuse yet for this idiosyn-
Grassy of thinking people-at least, no
sensible one.
Ovid was firm believer in the su-
perstition and said that no widow or
young girl would marry in May unless
she wished to invite the displeasure of
the gods, and that the imprudent wdhn-
an who braved their wrath would fill an
early grave. Ovid pinned his faith to
rosy June, the birth month of June, and
when lie got ready to launch his daugh-
ter on the matrimonial sea he studied
the stars and all the superstitions to
make sure that he would not run upon
Scylla in steering off Charybdis.
Resolved to match the girl, he tried to find
What days unprosperous were, what moons
Were kind
After Junc's sacred ides his fancy strayed-
Good to tho man and happy to tho maid.

The New Militia Uniforms.

AID Gen. Orendorff. of the state
militia, has issued the following or
der with reference to the newly
adopted uniforms:
1.-The new undress coat and forage
cap for officers recently adopted by
the United States government is
hereby adopted for the use of the
Illinois National Guard, modified as
follows: The insignia for undress
coats will be: For all officers the
letters /. N. e., Gothic design, of
suitable height, embroidered in gold
or made of gold or gilt metal, fas-
tened to each side of the collar one
inch from it's edge and midway it's
height. For all officers of the staff
corpsand departments: Their distinc-
tive insignia without wreath. one
inch high, embroidered in gold or
made of gold or gilt metal, fastened
to each side of the collar about five
cights inch from the letters l. N. G..
For all officers of the line: The re-
cent forage cap ornament. one inch
high. embroidered in gold or made OF

he announced that he would not be a
candidate for reconciliation. He was
apparently sincere in making this
statement. Brown was originally
nominated through Senator Germans
influence. His course as governor,
however, soon brought him into a
position Of antagonism with the
Maryland senator. Gov. Brown is
not naturally fighter. He is a rich
man. a gentleman farmer. fond Of
books, and is more of q student than
a politician. Some of Mr.. Germans
friends have been indiscreet in at
lacking Gov. Brown. The result is
that the governor has taken off his
coat and is working like a beaver to
secure the denomination. In the
preliminary skirmish he has made a
remarkably strong showing, and his
friends are even confident that he
will be successful.

Better Ono Way.

In North Carolina lately q case was
tried in which, the defendants charac-
ter having been impeached, it was
sought to bolster it up by showing he
had reformed and joined the church.
The witness, who belonged to the same
church, insisted that as the defendant
was now a Christian man of course his
character was better. Counsel asked
him, "Doesn' I he drink Just as much as
he ever did:" The witness, who was
colored and evidently embarrassed by
the inquiry, slowly raised his eyes and
said with much deliberation, Il think
he do, but he carries it more better. -

SPEAKING OF Secretary Gresham's

happen to man who works steadily
without relaxation. In the first
place, he becomes nervous, irritable.

judgment. In the third place. he

vertible law Of nature" Aud in the

democrat from Ohio, and manufac-
turer of street car rails, is possessed
of candor to remarkable degree.

Fame Thrust Upon Her.

Mrs. Catherine O'Leary, who died
Wednesday. afternoon in Chicago,
must be classed with those more or
less fortunate per. ons who have had
their greatness thrust upon them.
1t is not at all certain that Mrs.
OLearv was milking the COW that
kicked over the lamp that set fire to
Chicago; it is not even proved that
Mrs. O'Leary's COW kicked over a
lamp at all. Both allegations have
been persistently denied by the
O'Leary family, and by none MOI e
persistently than by. the old lady
herself. But the story was too good
to stop. Mrs. O'Leary and her cow
pleased the Imagination Of the world.
They spread to heroic dimensions in
the wild blaze of that ever memoir
able October night-became the
modern symbol of destructive fate.
1t cannot be said that Mrs. O'Leary
en- ioyed the eminence. She had no
desire to constitute q new cOnstella-
tion-she and her COW and the milk
ing stool. She was content with a
quiet life-poor thing-and the no.
toriety imposed upon her name EN-
Uttered her remaining years and
sent her to the grave protesting
against the world-encircling fable.
She protested in vain. She cannot
elude fame, says the Post. History
will embalm her memory and en-
bellish her eXploit-probably not
more fictitious than many deed
perpetrated by the "satire on hui
manity.

So she smiled on many q suitor.
But her heart was hard as stone.

For her friendship true.
This. alas was her undoing,
As it might have been with you.
For her friendship still he sued her
Such simple thing
Till before she knew he wooed her,
Wooed her with friendship ring.
Now, although she's fond Of Plato,
Her cold hearts grown warm,
And her theories Of living
Have imbibed q wondrous charm,
For she says: ." 'Tis human nature,
