HIS TRICK SUCCEEDED.
Published Banns of Marriage to Revive
His Credit.

His Credit.
In a certain church a certain man
caused the banns of marriage to be
published between himself and a lady
has no intention to marry him, says
the New York Commercial Advertiser.
He is poor and has no credit. She Is
wealthy and at the time of the publica-
tions of the banns was in Europe. The
effect of the announcement was instan-
taneous. The mans credit revived,
congratulations poured in, and for a
few weeks he had a delightful life.
Then came a letter from the lady In the
case. She denied her engagement to
the audacious and penniless one and
threatened to bring proceedings against
him for libel. But suppose he pleads
that he had hopes of the lady; who can
prove that he had not? Then few per-
sons understand the real object of pub
fishing the banns. 1t is popularity
thought that they are made public to
bring out such facts as whethar either
party has been previously married and
has a partner still alive or whether
they are under age. The true object
of banns being published was to give
the church wardens an opportunity to
object IL the parties were poor and
likely to be a charge on the parish.

CHAPTER XVI.

One cold gusty evening in October,
seven years after the pen had fallen
from Paul Dennys' hand, two women,
wearing the garb of the good Sisters
of Nazareth, wendell their way across
the little country ~churchyard of Col
worth and stood silently before a white
marble cross bearing the following in
scription--
Sacred to the memory of Helen,
the beloved wife of Paul Dennys Of
Colworth, who died 22nd of July, 1877,
aged 49,"
at stood a few yards away from the
huge stone monument under which
generations of Dennyses slept, the
reeds and rushes from the river, flow
ing close by, rustling mournfully
around it, making the spot so dismal
and ghostly that the elder sister, a
woman of a vigorous and unimagin-
alive disposition, %shuddered i~nvolun-
tarily and exclaimed half-pettishly to
her silent companion

She obeyed, tossing back her heavy
Grape veil, and lifted a wan ~listless
face to the low murky sky.

with a weak laugh. They haven't

An Excellent Combination.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIs SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles Of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the n perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub.
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make 1t the ideal
laxative.
In the process Of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities OF the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIa SYRuy
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid limitations, please
remember the full name of the Company

ARMY NJ NAVY,

Officers in our army complain some
times of their pecuniary state, but they
are not so badly off in comparison with
other services. THE father of a sub
altern in the English" says that his
son, after having had about s., 900
spent on his education at a public
school and being crammed for his ex-
aminations by various tutors, and
about 81, 250 more spent on his uniform
and Indian outfit, obtained a second
~lieutenancy, for which he receives the
munificent pay of 5s Sd ($1.30) a day, a
sum scarcely sufficient to pay for his
messing, washing and servant" In In
dia this is increased to 202 rupees a
month, but his expenses are at least
240 rupees. A balance is thus left on
the wrong side, which this British pa
REM has to make good.
The interdependence of industries
affords some of the most remarkable
phenomena of modern life. Awhile
ago the suggested use of camphor in
smokeless powder threatened to raise
the price of that drug to a point it has
not reached for centuries, and now the
established use of cellulose in the pow
der adopted by the United States, ia
pan and other countries has caused an
unwonted consumption of alcohol. The
internal revenue collections in the Peo-
ria Qll.) district were more than ST.
200, 600 for October alone, a large part
of it being due to a trainload of spirits
shipped to Japan. Our own govern
ment has bought 1000 barrels of alco-
hol since the war broke out.
The Correo Militar gives, from off,
cial sources, a statement Of the losses
suffered by Admiral Cervera's squad
ron on the occasion of the unhappy
dash from Santiago. When the ships
left Cape Verde, including forty stok-
ers engaged there, their compliments
were as follows: Maria Teresa, $50;
Oquendo, 4S7; Vizcaya. 491; Cristobal
Colon, 567; Furor, so, and Pluton, 30,
making a total of 2,261. When the
sauadlan issued from Santiago 1t was
thirty-four short of this number, eight
having been killed in the trenches and
sixteen wounded, while ten were sick
in the hospital. OF the 2,227 officers
and men who took part in the battle
1872 were killed and missing. while 120
got ashore and escaped to Santiago.
and the remarkable statement is made
that only tw~enty-eight were wounded
and ~succored by the Americans, and L.

country. Some of the more recent YES
