At the residence of Mr. and Mrs.
David Livingston in this city on Fri
day, April 9Th 1895. occurred the
marriage Of Dr. Dabney b. Reinhart
and Miss Ella Murphy, the words
which made the twain one, being
spoken by Rev. j. V. Hughes.
Immediately following the cere-
mony the happy couple were driven
to the depot and departed on their
wedding tour which includes a visit
to, Mrs. Reinhart's parents at Platte
vile. Wis.
The bride is an estimabe young
lady, and one of the teachers i'm our
public schools. A young lady of ac-
complishments, enjoying a circle of
warm friends. and we believe well cal
culated to fill the important position
of a DOCTORS wife.
The groom, oh, every body knows
Dr. Reinhart. As physician he
stands well in the front rank, and en-
JOYS the distinction of not only large
practice but also a very successful one
Socially he has friends by the score,
and at social gatherings he is always
counted in
The contamination Of the doctors
courtship came little sudden to most
people, although his most intimate
friends had good reasons to believe
that the nuptial knot would soon be
tied.
Upon their return DIR. and Mrs
Reinhart will prepare to settle down
to the comforts of home life in the
house recently vacated by G.. G. Han
over on Mill Street, where their many
friends will be pleased to call upon
them and wish them all the Joy and
happiness imaginable, in which the
Advocate most heartily joins. Merrill
Advocate.
Miss Ella Murphy is one Of Platte
ville's charming daughters. She was
reared and educated in that city. The
HERALD takes a special interest in this
wedding and thinks its editor is en-
titled to piece Of cake for it was
largely through his influence that the
Merrill school board secured Miss
Murphy's services as a teacher. We
extend our most hearty congratula-
tions.

NOT A MULE. EXACTLY.


a story is told Of donkey owned
by Pennsylvania farmer that is
worth giving here
The animal early showed disreput-
able tendencies. He was deceitful
and treacherous. He would bite and
kick, especially kick. He was balky
at times but on other occasions he
would take the bits in his teeth and
run away. He was fighter. He
could live at peace with nothing. He
would stalk about his pasture lot seek
ing quarrel.
He once attacked one of the farmers
It's pound thoroughbreds and was
literally pounded into the earth for
his pains But the lesson was I'M
needed he rose from his drubbinr rs
bolligerent as ever
lie Was of but little use to the farm
en-. lie would not travel the regu-
larry established Good roads but
preferred by-ways and foot paths.
The sight of a bicycle would make
him kick for week. In the field he
was no better. He was too s.inde-
pendent" to follow straight course.
If the farmer attempted to cultivate
a crop OF vegetables beets for example
the donkey would be first on one
side of the row then on the other and
would do more damage than his work
was worth. There was no telling on
which side to find him.
The farmer kept the donkey until he
got old-till IN fact he became a
Grandpa" donkey but with each
year 's.addition Of life his .cussedness'
increased.
He became SO contrary that he
would stand in his stall "wrong end
to- and kick at his feed box.
There was only one thing that would
make him tractable. Promise him
coats and he was your slave. Show
him ,.oatsn and you might pull his
nose and slap mis- ears, and he would
fswn about you like whipped cur,
until he got the coats" Then he was
the same s.independent'' kicker as
before.
The boys of the neighborhood would
often (Times) hang weight to the
ceiling of his stall so that it would
swing against his heels and then stand
off and watch him make an exhibition
of himself.
The News of his kicking proclivities
spread abroad and many a Witness
smiled and pitied him.
Mischievous boys looked to him to
furnish them amusement as
regularly as they look to the Dial of a
clock to learn the time OF day, but
men of Enterprise avoided him. He be-
came the butt of ridicule for the
neighborhood and the symbol of inn
potent crankiness.
Grant County has just such an ami
NAL in the Teller. 1t also early show
ed disreputable tendencies and has
now reached the Grandpa stage
From its dark and dingy stall comes
weekly kick at something Some
times it is The nation, sometimes. the
county, sometimes the state, but al
ways there is something at which a
kick is aimed.
Nothing is ever quite right. From
the gloomy recesses of its shriveled
soul the world seems all awry: legis-
latures, corporations, and officials
generally are wicked and corrupt.
Before election a man may be an
Honest millwright" but after COM
petitor prints election tickets he is a
dishonest politician. Envy and
iealously have crowded out the nobler
traits and left pitiful thing of mall
ice--a feeble, palsied Mephistopheles.

Japan as n Competitor.

The phenomenally low price of raw
cotton has tempted heavy purchases
from abroad. II the crop year be
taken, the exports in the ten months
ending June 80, 1895, were 3, 427,-
SI5, ZIG pounds against 2, ,566, 9S2. 921
pounds in tho corresponding period
of 1894. Nearly 900, 900, 600 pounds
more were sold in 1895 than in the
preceding year, and netted So, 400, 600
less. The distribution of this in
creased quantity may be taken as o
fair indication of the industrial coun-
tries which have felt the approach of
better demand for the manufactured
goods. England naturally stands first.
taking 100000 900 pounds more in
1895 than in 1894; Germany, France
and Italy will use 100000, 900 pounds
in excess of last year; and even
greater needs are indicated by the in
creased exports to Mexico and Canada.
One other country, the youngest
among Nations and the youngest in.
dustrial Power. will repay careful
study if her demand for American cot
ton may be taken as ON indication OF
growing competence. In the year
1894 less than 100000 pounds were
exported to Japan; in the year 1895
the export was more than IL 900, 600
pounds. This is the more remarkable
as Japan has British India and China
as sources of supply, and is known to
draw heavily from them. This need
for our cotton points to positive de-
velopment on the best lines of manu-
facture. 1t is only five years ago
that the United States sent cotton
cloth to Japan. Now japan asks for
raw cotton, defeats British Indian
competition in yarns aul threatens
English cloth with exclusion from the
continent of Asia. -Worthington @.

papers, and saw that her name was
not even mentioned in connection
with the matter. He wrote to her a
loving, boyish letter, and told her she
must be true to him till he came out
and they would be married and go
away where this could never be heard
of.
It was no small thing he had done
for her, he knew, and as he was not
more than human he expected his re-
ward. And the little duchess had
cried quietly over the letter, and for
several days cut off silk and satin with
pensive, unhappy look that quite
touched her cnstomers-those few
among them who realized that it was
human flesh and blood at the other
side of the yard measure.
Twenty months after the little duch-
ess was at the same counter measuring
silk and satin for the stock-taking,
when a note was brought to her in a
writing she remembered too we'll.
81 got out to-day, Nellie-come
down to the Gardens in the lunch
time"
She hesitated when the time came;
but, you see, he might come to the
shop, and that would never do. So
she put on her hat thoughtfully and
set out for tho Domain.
He was awaiting her on the scat
where nearly two years ago the gar
dener had smiled at them. He stood
up as she came slowly towards him.
and for a minute they gazed at each
other without speaking.
She was in black of course, but
fresh and dainty looking, with
bunch of white chiffon at he's throat,
with her little tan shoes, and her hair
showing golden against the black of
her lace hat.
For him, his face had hardened,
the once thick, curly hair was horri-
bly, shorter, his hands were rough
and unsightly, his clothes hung awk-
wardly upon him and his linen was
doubtful.
"The little duchess !" he said, DULY;
then he put out his hand, took her
small gloved one and looked ut it Gu
riously.
ell am glad you're out" she
said, carefully looking away from
him.
"Yes-we must be married now,
Nellie; that's all I've had to think
about all this awful time.
His face flushed little under its
tan, and his eyes lightened.
"It's good not to see the walls" +" he
added, looking round at the springs
brave show, then away to to the blue
sparkle in the bay and the glancins
sails.
"We mustn't talk of that time,
though ever, eh, Nellie?"
"No, she said, regarding her brown
shoes intently.
His eye noted the smooth round
ness of her cheek, the delicate pink
that came and went, the turn Of the
white neck.
"Aren't you going to kiss me, Nell
lie?" he said slowly; and he drew her
a little strangely and awkwardly to
him.
Then she spoke.
sI knew it wouldn't be any use,
and you'd never have any money or
get place after this. We couldn't
be married on nothing, and it would
only drag you down to have me, too.
I'm not worthy of you"
"Well, little duchess" he said soft
ly as she stopped and falterel; slow
smile crept over his face, and his deep
set eyes lighted up with tenderness.
Not worthy, his little duchess!
Then the crimson rushed into her
face, and she flung up her head de-
