does not enter the mind Of the girl.
One thought alone is uppermost ana
supreme: the union of two loving
hearts, each filed with the thought OF
the other-both to be united In one
complete whole. That is marriage, and
that alone. Let n-essentials enter It,
and the hottest state into which man
and woman can enter this side or
Heaven becomes a wrong, an irrepar-
able sin.
s.Shau these two girls, then, and all
other girls with their faces turned to-
ward the altar of marriage during
these weeks to come, say, obey! Yes,
a thousand times yes. And as they
saw it to the men Of their hearts, so
will the men, in turn, promise to love
them as wives, even as Christ loved
the Church which unites them, and
gave Himself for it. No woman has
ever found it difficult to obey the hus-
band who loves her as only true man
can love one woman in a universe. She
does not find the little word coming up
in her married life to make her regret
it's utterance. On the contrary, she
never thinks of it, except to be thank
full that she did not shrink from it.
The state of matrimOny is not state
Of demand on the part of .Ee husband,
nor of obedience on the part OF the
wife. It is a perfect state that lifts
two people higher, a state where love
is masterful and supreme"

first from the top, and in a breast of
veal the breast and brisket should first
be cut apart and then in pieces.
A sirloin Of beef should be placed on
the platter with the undercut under

from the side next the carver, and then

A leg of mutton should be carved

it is usually hard and stringy.

An epidemic Of suicide has struck
some Of the large cities. Poison seems
to be the favorite means adopted by
the poor creatures who desire to kill
themselves. And in spite Of the laws
prohibiting the sale Of poisons, except
under certain restrictions, there seems
to be no difficulty experienced by any
one who wants it in buying morphine
and other deadly drugs. The laws
ought to be enforced and made more
stringent in this regard, and should in
clude such poisons as paris green and
carbolic acid. There is no reason why
these poisons should be allowed to be
sold without restriction. They are OF
very limited use. Paris green is used
by farmers and fruit-growers to de,
stroy noxious insects, but it is of little
or no use in city. -Carbolic acid is
disinfectant, but there are other less
dangerous disinfectants. Neither OF
these drugs ought to be handed out to
children and young people, nor ought
any active poison to be sold except un-
der careful restrictions. Doubtless sui.
cides will find some means Of carrying
out their purpose, but the community
is bound to do all that is possible to
prevent self-murder.

lar bill in the middle of the wooden col
lection plate. He sits in the front row,
and his offering is the first to be taken
up. He has the bill ready. The under
side is covered with resinous sub
stance which adheres like glue and has
the odor of turpentine. He deposits
the bill fiat, gives it parting pat to
fasten it firmly, and fixes his eyes upon
the Caen stone reredos. The mucilage
is always fresh.
Mr.. Jaeger, who is printer and
about 60 years old, is tall and slender.
He. comes to church every Sunday
morning attired in a long coat, with
white necktie, silk hat, kid gloves and
an air of gentle solemnity. He takes
his place in calm and dignified man
ner. He reads the responses, shows
passing interest in the hymns, and
after the sermon he draws that bill
from beneath the folds of his coat, ap-
parently, and deposits it with patient
care. For long time the church peo-
pie were unable to learn where he kept
the glue with which he stuck the bill.
At length it was discovered that the
''stickum" was concealed in his hat,
which also held tiny brush used in
laying on the stuff. The old gentleman
is evidently harmless member Of the
large army Of cranks.

Let Brides Promise to "obey. !.

quiries from two girls if they should
insist upon the word ''obey" being
omitted from their marriage ceremony.
Either she is doubtful of her own love

in either case her marriage will be

many dollars to be put into added

where there is no meat worth eating,
where the insects and flying things are

All the hubbub over the poor little
Marlborough-Vand baby seems
ludicrous to Americans, but the British
public dearly loves a lord-much more
a duke. John Churchill, the founder
of the house of Marlborough, was the
most Thoroughbred scoundrel and uni
yersaI traitor that Europe has pro-
duced, and most of his descendants
have tried in their feeble way to live
I'D to his reputation. The strawberry
leaves, like charity, cover a multitude
of sins, however, and the little Marquis
of Blandford enjoys, as he should en-.
joy, immunity from the faults of his
ancestors.

w. T. Stead, editor of the Review of
Reviews, has been giving his views on
American women, and advancing the
opinion, among others, that English
women are treated with greater re-
spect by men than American women.
In support of his statement he cites the
stately ceremonial politeness to wo-
men, displayed by Thomas Carlyle.
This is an unfortunate illustration.
Americans have heard of Jane Carlyle,
and will have trouble in remembering
that Thomas displayed any stately
ceremonial politeness toward her. Al
all events, they are likely to prefer the
sort they get from the common and less
stately" American man.

Asleep for Three Months.

Local physicians are puzzling over
the strange illness of Abe and Adrien
Meyer, two sons Of Keya Paha Coun-
ty farmer. It is thought that both lads
are suffering from some form of nerv-
GUS complaint. It manifests itself,
however, very differently in their re-
spective cases.
Abe is about 10 years old. For four
months he has been unable to sleep
more than four hours in a night His
health has suffered little, but he is very
irritable, and, in the opinion Of the doc
tors, he can not long stand the strain
without losing his mind There was
no premonition of his attack except ex-
IRENE nervousness and tendency to-
ward insomnia.
Adrien is only IA years old. For a
long time he required more sleep than
does the average boy Of his age. and a
few months ago he began spending six
teen or eighteen hours out Of the TWEEN
ty-four in bed. Now he remains there
altogether. For the last three months
he has not opened his eyes more than

As TO High Heels.

If you value the good appearance of
your feet do not wear very high heels
on your boots or shoes. The result of
the habitual wearing of high-heeled
boots is to cause the feet to become
very wide. All the pressure comes from
the fore part of the foot, thus broaden
ing it. The best and most comforta Bile
shoes are generally those made to
measure; they do not get so easily out
OF shape as ready made shoes, and. as
rule, they have better appearance.

While the autumn. drought was not
attended with such disastrous forest
fires as many that have devastated por-
tons Of the pine lands of the North
west in years past, the fires were dan
gerous enough to call public attention
to the growing need Of stronger FEEDER.
al measures for the preservation OF
these forests The resolutions adopted
by the national irrigation congress at
Lincoln, Neb.. Endorsed the policy of
forest reservation as indicated in the
orders of President Harrison and Pres
ident Cleveland, may be taken as a
very reliable reflection Of public opin-
ion on this question. 1t is true that no
edict Of the government could stay the
devouring element that lays waste such
large areas Of our pine lands during the
dry spells every fall, but it is conceded
that these fires might be prevented by
an extensive system of forest police Or
wardens, similar to that employed in
many countries. The fires could also
be checked by fixing very severe pen
alties for the punishment of those who
are guilty of criminal carelessness and
recklessness in attempting to clear
lands in this manner, thereby endan.
gering millions of dollars worth Of
property. No punishment could be too
severe for men who will deliberately
place in jeopardy hundreds Of lives and
vast areas of valuable pine timber. The
rapid disappearance of American for
ests is matter Of serious conc ern. Tho
corporate and individual timber
thieves, together with those who wan
tonly and recklessly abuse the cutting
permits granted by the government,
are making heavy inroads upon our
forest wealth. With this class Of of.
tenders the government can and should
deal vigorously. The government
should not only take measures for the
prompt punishment of those who waste
the timber and abuse the permits to
cut from the public domain, but should
devise system Of patrol that will pre-
vent the destruction of our forests by
conflagration.
