An Al,-Arnnnd Man.

The Triton Gazette has discovered a
Justice of the peace who takes the
prize" BY arrangement with the or
binary he was authorized to issue mar
rage licenses. In these days the ne
groes were beginning to enjoy the lux
ury of marrying just like white folks.
and the J. p. was gathering in quite a
lot of shekels, as he not only pocketed
the license fee, but also charged stiff
price for tying the knot.
One day dark hued couple present.
cd themselves as candidates for matri-
mony, and he soon sent them on their
way rejoicing In few days the man
returned and stated that he could not
live "wid dat FAR oman"
Every WE'LL" said the ]. p, stroking
his long judicial beard. bring me SIS
and I'll give you a divorce"
The negro returned with the money
in few days and was solemnly d.
vorced "by due process of law"
This is the only instance on record
where one man exercised the power OF
an ordinary, a magistrate, preacher,
a clerk OF the superior court, a Judge
OF the superior court and twelve jurors.

golden balls, but when he came out he
wore the silver chain.
Week after week this was repeated,
and there never was a Sunday when
James did not have his silver watch to
wear to church.
The sunlight began to wonder why
1t was that nowadays Margery sat
60 often idle in the big rocking-chair;
indeed, she seldom even rocked now.
When her eyes were open they haC a
far-away look in them, as though her
thoughts had wandered back to the
days when her little ones were clus-
tered around her. But the soft, gray
eyes were rarely open when the sun
light came.
Later on he grew to look for her on
the little white bed.
Once or twice he saw James going to
church alone, and took a good look to
see whether he wore the watch chain.
Yes, there it was, but it didn't seem to
shine quite as much as it used TO.
Poor James! When he stood at Mar
gery's bedside, after coming in from
church, he would try to smile, so that
the dear wife, as she lay with her wan
face on the pillow, might not know
how he was suffering. Then Margery
would ask family what time 1t was,
and James would open the silver
watch. Then the sunlight would make
the dull silver shine so that Margery
would smile up at James and say that
she was so glad, so glad, that he could
have it another Sunday.
Something would rise up in James
throat, but he would try to look glad.
Margery didn't see his hand shake as
he put the watch back in his pocket.
But when Monday came it was again
in the shop with the three golden balls
When Sunday dawned there was no
frail figure lying on the little white bed,
and James was sitting by the window
with his elbows on his knees, his head
buried in his hands. The sunlight lin
gered with him as long as 1t could
and when at last it had to so away
James never missed 1t.
The next day it came again and
found James still sitting by the win
dow. his head still bowed and buried
in his hands.
In the old churchyard, close by the
gray stone wall, are two new-made
graves. Growing over these, as though
joining them together with its loving
| embrace, is an ivy green among whose
leaves the sunlight loves to linger.
In the shop with the three golden balls
they wondered for a time what had be-
come of the s.oop-shouldered old man
who used 20 come every Saturday nigh
for that old silver Nssch and chain
But they soon forgot all about it.

Three RiessfnCx.

An old clergyman who formerly lived
In a New Hampshire town was remark
able for his eccentric modes of speech.
His way of asking a blessing was so
peculiar as to sometimes effect the
risibles of his guests, although he APP
parently was entirely unconscious of
this fact. When he seated himself at
the breakfast table, and saw spread
upon it a meal greatly to his liking, he
said: Lord, we thank thee for this
excellent breakfast Of which we are to
partake." A more simple meal, but
one which he still regarded as compar-
atively satisfactory, would cause him to
say, Lord, we thank thee for this good
breakfast set before u.s." But when the
minister's eye roamed over the table
and saw nothing which was especially
to his taste, although the
tone in which he uttered his
petition was not lacking in
fervor. his sentiments were clearly to
be discovered. Lord" he invariably
said on these occasions, "fill our hearts
with thankfulness, we beseech thee. for
this meal set before us; for with thee
all things are possible. Youths COM
paniOn.

and this made 1t all the harder for the
sun to get near it. When he got to 1t at
last he looked through the window jus.
under the roof.
What he saw must have pleased him
very much, for he came back after that
whenever he could and stayed just as
long as he could. He and a certain
wonderful ivy which grew in a soap
box in the window soon became great
friends, and the visits of the sunlight
were eagerly watched for by the grace
full ivy.
Indeed, the sun seemed to have a
fondness for everything in the little
room. 1t used to wander over to the
bed in the corner and touch It's snowy
white coverlet; then it would shine
upon the little stove opposite the win
dow. must tell you here that l really
think the stove was jealous of the sun
light. You see, it had such polish
that it shone itself, and when the sun
was not about the fire in the etoVe
seemed to burn brighter.
The old-fashioned bureau showed Its
age more than ever when the sun shonc
upon it, as old things and old people
are apt to do when the sun shines on
them. The well-worn deal table was
always secured so white and clean that
the sun was very fond of 1t. The two
things that he loved best of all, though,
were the sweet-faced old woman who
sat so much in the big rocking-chair
and the ivy in the window. His last
lingering glance was always at these.
He couldn't quite understand why Ii
was that the old man he saw there on
Sundays and heard talk in such gen
tie voice TO the sweet-faced woman
wac never there at any other time, until
one day he saw him, in the early morn
ing. going into a mill at the other end
Of the town. The old man was not very
quick in his step. and his shoulders
stopped from bending so much over the
loom. His hair was white and his
hands were thin, and the sunlight
touched him very gently IS he passed
through the mill yard gate.
But there was much going on in the
little room that the sunlight knew
,, nothing Of The dear old woman, wh1
was so fond Of the shabby rockingham
was seldom idle. She seemd to have
an endless number of stockings to knit
but these always disappeared as soon
&c finished. Her own stockings and

tie mending was done by cand.e-lght
but James would shake his head, and
the stocking would be laid aside
There was never any work done or

A BACK BLOW.
The Weapon Small - but None Moro
Certain or Effective.

IN these times when backs are lame,
when almost every other one we meet has
now and then, or all the time, back that
aches or pains IA weak back, !" " a bad
back" a back that makes their life mis-
cry TO bear - and still they GO on day by
aay in pain and Suffering. Now tits the
Easiest thing in the world TO give this

It, and put in its place II new one equal to
any It's just like this: hit at the cause
most backachcs come from kidney disor-
hers Reach the kidneys, start their
elogged-up fibres in operation; when this
Is done you can say goodbye to backache.
Here is a case from Battle Creek: Mr..
Josiah NJ Shoup lives at 81 Broad Street,
he was q member of the Battle Creek po-
lice force for many years. As a member
of the force he served the city well, but
the rough weather he was often subjected
20 laid the foundation of kidney disorder.
which has troubled him very much. Here
is what he says about it.:
About three years ago, while on the
police force, contracted from exposure o
kidney trouble, which has since given me
no end of trouble. The pain was right
through my kidneys and across the small
of my back; if sitting down and | wanted
to stand up, had to arise very slowly and
gently to avoid increasing the pain; had
such tiredout feelings all the time, and
was steadily getting worse. About two
months ago, hearing of Doan's Kidney
Pills, got box. Their action and effect
was most complete, they removed the old
aching pains for good. i can now get
around as quickly as anybody. Doan's
Kidney Pills are certainly as represented. y

A rr,ve,e,.s Tale.

The tall man with the literary stoop
in his shoulders then broke the silence.

he began, '1s SO large that he will fill
a good sized hogshead."
A loud protest went up from the
loungers in front of the postoilice. The
tall man cleared his throat again.
"I ought to add" he said. in soft
ened tone, that he will ill the hogs
head with dark-brown molasges.'
whereupon the hour for dinner hav-
ing arrived the house adjourned until
2 D. m. without ceremony.-New York
