BEEsoN-CARNINE.

There was a very pretty home
wedding Wednesday evening Sep
TENDER 22nd, at the residence of Mr..
and Mira. p. NJ. Carnine, corner of Con-
gress and 10th avenue Emporia. II
was the marriage of their daughter
Ida, to Rev. E. w. BeesUn, of Carlyle,
Kans., Rev. +. j. Sauerber Officiated.
The house was tastefulIy decorated
with golden rod, potted plants and
green vines. A lawn tennis net was
draped across the bay window and
around the south parlor, this being
filled with golden rod and an Occa-
siOnal bright hued blossom. Prompt
ly at O'Clock Mrs. J. d. Hewittplay-
ed MendellssOhn's wedding march
and the bride came down the stairs
leaning on the arm of the groom.
They entered the south parlOr and
stood in the bay window. where Mr..
Sauerber awaited them. A few SIM
pie earnest words of solemn import
and they were made man and wife.
An earnest prayer followed and then
friends stepped up to offer coHgratu-
lations.
Miss Carnine will be greatly miss
ed in the church and Sunday school
here, where she has been a most
faithful worker, but as Mrs. BeesOn
she will be but transferring her USE
fulness to her husbands field of Tabor
The bride was dressed in a dainty
white gown of India linen trimmed
with tiny ruffies and lace, chiffon and
ribbon. A single white rose bud was
in her hair and she carried white roses
In her hand, and she had sweet,
gracious and composed manner, as
though she trusted implicitly in a
happy future with the tall, strong
looking bride groom by her side. He
wore the conventional black with a |
white rose bud in his button hole. /
very nice supper was served in
,hree courses at one large table in the
lining room and small tables in the
1arlOrs. The tables were prettily
decorated with asparagus, ferns and
fragrant white roses The bride cake
With its clasped hands and other or.
was sacrificed, the bride
cutting the first slice, for unfortunate
till unmarried lads and lasees to
lream on, and thereby learn their
ate. A very pleasant merry COM
ANY was present, about sixty being
invited. A happy spirit prevailed
ii, symbolic we trust of the united
life of the newly married couple. A
arge number of pretty and useful
lifts were received. Those present
rom out of town were: Mr.. Blossoms
laughter and son, and Miss Carnine's
lister, Mrs. Brady and family.
Mr.. and Mrs. Beeson left Thursday
corning for their home in Carlyle.

OUR POST OFFICE BUSINESS.
Figures from MIR. Ireland's Report Give
the Strongest Evidence of IoIa's
Great Growth.


Through the courtesy of Postmaster
Ireland we are enabled to give the
following items from his quarterly re.
port from July l to September 80 in.
elusive.
The gross receipts for the quarter
were 81. 204.71 against S954.15 for the
same quarter in 1896, showing an in
crease in the volume of business of
$250.56. In round numbers this will
show with the present amount of bus
mess that we are increasing at the
rate of $1,000 year, and present indi-
cations point to a much larger in
crease even than that as we are now
entering upon the best business quar-
ter of the year.
In the past three menths the four
newspapers published at lola have
sent out 1912 pounds of printed mat
ter. Allowing ten papers to the pound
which is a very fair average and ra-
Their under than over estimated, this
will give US Sc, 12O papers in the three
months, which are circulated outside
the city, while the number in circula-
ton in the city makes an excellent
second, being almost as large as the
outside circulation. This in itself is
worthy of a little consideration from
our merchants, showing that they are
afforded an excellent medium for their
advertisements through the lola pa
pers with such circulation at their
command.
Although the mail sent out from
lola has increased remarkably, yet
the mail received at the post office
has increased in even greater ratio be-
ing on an average nearly double that |
sent out. Last Sunday morning the
mail from the east brought just 200
pounds of mail matter, mostly daily |
papers. A town with such an intelli-
gent and reading public cannot get
very far behind the procession.
TO further show that the business
interests of lola have very materially
increased, a count was made on Mon
day last of the letters that were mail
I'd here and the number was found to
be 1905. Surely town of $500 people
which sends out a letter mail like that
IN single day is very wide awake
indeed.
The REGISTER has great pleasure
these facts for the reason
hat there is no truer index to the
progress of town than the growth of
is post-Office business, and Judged by
his criterion the volume of Iola's bus
ness is certainly increasing at a most
rate. One thing that this
eport makes very clear is that the Of
ice of postmaster is no sinecure. Mr..
Ireland is meeting all the require
nents of the added work, but it is at
he expense of his health and his
'urse, as he is at the office every day
rom six in the morning until seven at !
light, and is obliged to employ an l
dditiOnal clerk at his own expense.
he patrons of the office appreciate
is efforts to give them prompt SER
ice and will be glad to see the appro- L
Ration increased a sufficient amount d
at least cover the added expense. :

THE OLD CALENDAR.
The ninety-seven calendar

The ninety-seven calendar
Now totters to it's fall,
And that for ninety eight now comes
TO crowd it from the wall.
When that old card was posted uD--
1t seems but yesterday
It's ink was bright, it's colors brlgD'.
But now it's torn and gray.
Like faithful friend, it ne'er de"r;E 4,
But always answers strai&r
When with inquring eyes we tuil
To ascertain the date.
Though questioned oft, by day and
night,
Our trust it ne'er betrays;
A sentinel of time it stand
With record of the day.
La" u realize that soon
Its usefulness will end,
And that ere long We'll cast aside
This honest, silent friend;
But as we glance along the lines
That indicate the past
We find It's true that for this card
The end is coming fast.
And as we look fond memories rise
OF days that it has seen
Since it was placed upon the wall
With all it's luster clean.
In reminiscent mood our minds
Recall the pleasant hours
When skies were bright, and hearts
were gay,
And paths seemed strewn with
flowers.
And, thinking of the year to come,
We wonder if-but, pshaw!
This moralizing doesn't pay
When doubts arise to awe.
The old must go, the new must come.
Times always on the wing,
And every year to every life
Its share of joys will bring.

LITERATURE OF INDIA.
What the Hindoos and Mohammedan9
Read and Abide By.

In India there is a great lack OF
readable matter. Nearly all OF the
books published are in pamphlet form
of about three hundred pages. Many
reprints of old books in the classical
languages, such as Sanskrit, Arabic
and Persian, are to be found The
greatest number of books read in India
are OF a religious character. Recently
the study of the Vedas has been
taken up, due to their translation into
modern vernacular languages. The
Ramayana and the Mahabharata are
largely read and influence to an enor-
nous degree the character building Of
the people of India. Tulsidas, a great
writer who lived 1900 A. D., taught
very high code of morals; he took
his illustrations from nature and was
popular among all classes-even the
most ignorant. The following extracts
are from one of his wri.Ings:
forgiveness is the root of religion;
pride is the root of hell. 0! Tulsi,
do not forsake forgiveness so long as
thy soul lives in the body
80, Tulsi, there are various descrip-
tons of men in the world; be friendly
to all, for it is merely a temporary
meeting like that of boat on the
river"
The purity of his moral teachings,
and the exquisite melody of his verses
are appreciated by all scholars.
The Bhagavata Purana is the guide
in everyday life to very large num-
Der of Hindoos. Its language is most
fascinating to the Indian ear.
The blind poet Bril- Surdas has trans
lated it into beautiful musical COM
position, which is sung almost every
where throughout India
In Sanskrit literature the most popu-
lar is the Bhagavad Gita now trans
lated into English.
Persian literature, philosophy and
poetry are largely read among Mo-
hammedans and Hindoos. The works
of poets like Sadi Hafiz and others are
most popular. Both these works are
allegorical based on high moral ethics
and keen insight into human nature;
both show supreme intuitional devel-
opment Sadi is considered the poet
Of the people, and his verses have be-
come proverbs.-New Century.

THE HEAD OF THE HERD.

Daniel Munroe says: The most i'm
lortant of all selections is the head OF
the herd. The bull we breed from
should combine as much concentration
of the very best family records as We
can possibly buy or breed. The value
of good bull was finely illustrated
last summer, when one of the largest
diaries in the province was disposed CT
at public sale-95 head Of young
things, three generations, bred from
the herd and sired by choice
thoroughbred bull, were offered, and
brought prices that must have been
gratifying to the owner in return for
his investment, while the purchasers
were equally well pleased with their
end of it. But that was not the end;
the influence of that bull will live on
for many years scattered over the
province to the great benefit CT the
dairy interest. Moral: Don't look at
the dollars too long when yol need
good bull.
