German Army Marriage.

No German officer can marry with
out the consent of his Colonel accord
ing to Poultnoy Bigelow in tho Bor-
dorland of Gar and Kaiscr), and this
consent can be obtained only after
careful inquiry into all tho circum-
stances surrounding tho proposed nj.
lance. First, is the young lady suit
ablo for association with tho wives of
tho other officers? Second, will tho
bridegroom be able TO 1.-Two respccta-
bly, and bring up his family? Third,
are his means, or those of his wife,
invested in proper securities. SO that
he is not likely to be expelled by rea-
son of bankruptcy? Tho oxtraordi-
nary social advantages enjoyed by the
German officer, md the pecuniary re-
sponsibilities growing naturally from
such advantage, make his small pay,
which amounts only TO about dollar
day i'll case of II First Lieutenant,
appear even smaller than it is.
An American lady, who has been
spending winter in Dresden, told
Mr.. Bigolow that NIL tho bachelors of
the garrison were furnished with
Ito" VI Aiuil itSCtDlC WOlucuy CuCll HllDc
ornamented with the property sho
might bo expected to inherit. This,
no doubt, was mistake on her part,
but it is n very common one. German
officers stationed in desirable towns
arc Very apt to to get into debt, and
have to choose between leaving tho
army in disgrace or marrying rich
girl.
Mr.. Bigelow adds: "From my own
experience in Germany tho officers
would appear to have married for love
and to DO happy in consequence" and
yet, "tho number of those who got into
debt and fail to secure rich wife is
considerable, although it makes no
particular ripple on the surface; such
men simply disappear and turn up
sooner or later in America, where
they take employment rs conchmcn,
walters, teachers or instructors in
riding schools. Tho change of life is
very violent, and is adopted only as
preferable to suicide. "-Philadalphia

unpER THE THORN.


undcr the thorn In the field of clover
Two hearts met In tho Summer morn,
Met by chance with the blue skies over
Under tho thorn.
Love, the live blossom of life, reborn,
Burst into bloom in tho heart OF each lover
In full fruiton, that feared hot scorn;
Sweet arc tho songs OF tho birds above
her.,
While love, no moro with Its heart forlorn,
Discovers tho lips it would fain discover,
Under the thorn.
Under the thorn when tho blossoms wither.
Shall Love lie languid or droop forlorn;
When its joys had gone and you wonder
whittier,
Under tho thorn.
Still in the springtimes yet unborn,
Like u cloud or blossom or bird-wipr's
feather,
PlucRcd from its flying pinions torn,
Shall love forever In its own weather
Come through the air in life's azuro morn,
When two hearts shall meet, thus por-
chance, together
Under the thorn.

Tho Food Curn.

To the many who abhor the taking of
bitter drugs, the food cure opens an al.
Turing prospect. This ia positively the
latest idea, introduced Into England by
physicians of advanced ideas. They
claim that certain foods contain all the
elements necessary to effect cures; that
they have made up II list which en-.
braces tonics, fcbrlfuges, diurctics, and,
In fact, every medicinal agent that Ia
defined In tho pharmacopia. These
foods arc of tho simplest character, but
tho English doctors do not disclose
them, except TO their patients. They
say that In the course of ten years there
will not be onc-third tho medicine used

Strange uso for Aluminium.

Tho metal aluminium lends itself SO
readily to nll manner of conditions
and manipulations that it naturally
falls into strange uses. A patient in
an English hospital had virulont
disease of the eur. and, although tho
hearing was eventually restored, tho
external organ had to be removed.
The house surgeon proposed to re-
place it with ALUMINIUM. An artificial
ear was nodded in wax to match tho
healthy ear on the opposite side, re-
produced in vulcanitc and aluminium,
and tinted and cnnmelcd to harmonic
with tho complexion. a support for
tho artificial Cur was devised, and nd
hesion to the head was secured by
means of a saturated solution of mus
tic in absolute alcohol Tho man can

of rich, green grass. Tho front of
the house is covered with ampolopsis,

the house there arc pear trees loaded
now with white blossoms, tossing out
on tho wind their rich peculiar per-

Tho neon, SO sadly neglected by
