Five Dollars went a Long Way.

A Wilmington clergyman tells, in the
Philadelphia Record, of a Philadelphia
couple who came to him to be married
one day. When they left the boat at the
Fourth street wharf in the city they had
only So between them. Nevertheless. the
groom called a cab and ordered to be
driven to the city hall and then to the
nearest minister. At the city hall he
paid $3.50 for a marriage license, which
left u 40 to pay the cabman and to fee
the minister. At the latter's house the
cabby demanded $3.50 The groom re-
piled that he did not have it, and the
driver compromised on dollar, leaving
10 cents for the minister.
The. bridegroom, however, was not
done buying, for he stepped into a near
by store and bought an envelope for a
cent. In this he put the remaining 80
cents, and after the ceremony handed
IT to the minister. How the newly
married couple got back to PHILADELPHIA
is q mystery.
