church wedding. The edifice had been
gloriousiy decorated. The bride sur

organ was pealing forth the sounds as
of joyous wedding bells. Fashionable
people dressed for the occasion occu-
pied the seats of the handsome church.
II so happened that one Of the pages
had in the rush Of business prepara-
tory to dressing for the occasion been
turned over TO the care OF nurse AS
he proceeded down the main aisle of
the church in company with the other
youngsters. who in white satin suits
were doing the honors of each respec-
tive household. he suddenly espied his
mother seated in one of the pews.
At this point the organist began
playing softly as the wedding party
passed TO the altar. Then, above the
gentle strains of music clear as bird
could be heard the voice of the afore-
said small boy.
Mamma he shrilly cried. nurse

OF course the Mortified mamma could
do nothing but blush scarlet, but lifted
a prayer that the young scion would
keep still from that time on. And he
did and received hearty kiss from
the bride at the close of the ceremony.
This is true story and can be vouch-
ed for by those who attended the we'd

SOME LITTLE KNOWN FACTS.

There are scores of places in this coun-
try where only one mail comes every II
days.
Not 6 per cent of all the women in
America spend as much money as $50 per
year on their clothes.
Only IS per cent Of all the families in
America employ domestic help, leaving
81 per cent without even one servant.
Out of 100000 American families
the income of 100000 of these families
is less than $500 each per year, and the
incomes of nearly so per cent of the en-
tire number are less than 81 900 each per
year.
II all the dressmakers known to exist
in America worked ~ hours of each day
for whole year without stopping for
sleep or meals. they would still be able to
make only one dress apiece for less than
seven-eighths of the women of America.
