MT. William Strahan of upper Verde to Miss Ida Bell VanDeeren of Oak Creek, Rev. J. M. Austin of the Campbellite church officiating. As to the dance, there was a big crowd, good order and good supper and a good time enjoyed by every one, considering the small space for 70 large crowd to dance in. Now see you sorter touched on the r, = lationship of the parties who were married, in your issue of last week and that sorter touched my curios- ity bump. I have been figuring on the puzzle and find 1t about as fol- lows: William Strahan and Edith Strahan are half sister and brother and double cousin by virtue O. the fact that their father was married at different times to sisters. In the recent marriage Wm. Straham be comes cousin to his father-n-Iaw and son-in-law to his sister, who Is his cousin. His sister, Edith Stra- han, becomes his mother-in-iaw. She Is his cousin. James Van Deeren becomes brother-in- law to his son in-law and cousin to his own daughter and cousin to his own Wife. Ida Belle VaaDeeren becomes sister to her stepmother, cousin to her father and cousin tO her siep- mother. With all this there is no blood relationship existing betwe,'n either of the husbands aud their wlves-some one else fgure awhile.
 At this writing there IS "a which meeting going on in the post and l am at the 11:30 o'clock hour, De- cemher 31, anno domoni 1899, and all's well. G.W.H.

Hermology, a comparatively new medical term, is knowledge of blood and disease as evidenced by the changes observed in blood. 1t has already made such advances that many dis Ases may be recognized by examination of the blood. From a mere observation of the relative number of leucocytes (whlte blood corpuscles) and erythrocytes (red blood corpuscles) it has advanead> to elaborate analysis of other elements of the blood and the recognition of bod ies foreign to normal blood. This 'ology promises to be of especial value to man. kind in giving early warning of disease otherwise not manifest and showing the advance or decline of abnormal con ditions.-St. Louis Medical and Surgical IOrrDaI

The Ear1s of Moray.

Though they have always been
prominent men, none of the earls Of
Moray has taken any leading part in
the government of the country. nor has
any of them been a distinguished mil
itary man. The last earl was a most
eccentric parsonage. For many years
before his death, in 1896, he lived the
life of a recluse at Donibristle castle.
1t is remarkable also that for the last
half-century none of the successors to
the title was in the direct succession.
The eleventh earl was succeeded by
his brother, the twelfth earl by his
cousin-the present earl-who is now
60 years of age. AS the earl and coun-
tess have no son the heir presumptive
to the title is his brother.
