One OF the quickest weddings that
has transpired in Oakland for some
time came off in the waiting room at
this place last Thursday evening.
Zellen d. Robinson eloped with Isa
A. Google. both from Arnetts~ille.
Oakland they had only few moments
to have the ceremony performed, in
order to return on the next train.
The license was procured, a preacher
dispatched for and in less than thirty
after their arrival they were
declared man and wife.

NJ. f. Gregg, a popular conductor on !
the Missouri Pacific railroad. "Do !

ach? well, it does" and after giving |
this friendly bit of advice, the Jolly |
conductor passed on down the aisle |

The attempt of the PostOiiice De
partment to compel postmasters to
put 4 legible date stamp upon mailed
letters will be gratefully appreciated
by business men. The time of mail
ing a letter is often a matter of i'm
portance The use of envelopes has
somewhat diminished the value OF
the postmark as positive evidence in
business transactions involving a
question Of dates; but there is none
the less great necessity for a reform
in postoifice practice for many suffi-
cieut reasons.
1t is always gratifying to receive
testimonials for Chamberlain Collie,
Cholera and DiaharrhOea Remedy,
and when the endorsement is from
physician it is especially so. There
is no more satisfactory or effective
remedy than Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhma Remedy
writes DR.. r. f. Robey, physician and
pharmacist, of Olney, Mo, and as he
has used the Remedy in his own fam
lily and sold it III his drug store for
five years, he should certainly know.
