opposed Marriage Settlements,

Just before John c. CalhOun's mar
rage he had long talk with the legal
counsel of his sweetheart's mother re-
garding Florides marriage settlement
and directly thereafter, says George
Wolsey Symonds In The Ladies' Home
Journal, wrote to his prospective moth
er-in-law ON the subject: From preju-
dice or reason have always been OPP
posed to marriage settlements. / think
experience and reason prove them to
be unfriendly to the happiness Of the
marriage state and that they tend to
produce pecuniary embarrassment. In
that state there should be one interest,
one happiness and one destiny. That
entire confidence which is reposed by
a female in the object Of her choice In
placing both her honor and her prop
erty In his custody gives rise to the
most sacred and tender regard. A
marriage settlement implies distrust.
1t is no safety against inevitable acct

band only. II successful In life, there
is no benefit in one. II unsuccessful,
what more disagreeable than to have
property, but not to be able to pay just
debts? 1t would to me be wretched.
1t would be splendid poverty"

EnrDaf Her EnHliah.

A young Russian woman who has
only been for few months In this
country Is IN intrepid speaker Of Eng
lish and is constantly telling her
friends that she has mastered the Ian
guage In this short space without any
difficulty whatever. The other after
noon when she called on a society belle
she was shown ut once to the bOudOir
Of her hostess and found that young
woman in n charming negligee costume.
81 hope you will pardon my desha-
billie" the American girl said. II have
just come IN"
mo, indeed; certainly not" the Rus
sian maid replied vivaciOusly In her
pretty accent. II would not do so; no,
no."
Then there was an embarrassed
pause, and the American had just COM
menced In constrained voice to talk
Of the weather when there were signs
Of wild excitement from the Russian.
'"The answer was yes she exclaim-
ed. II have 1t all wrong. have my
English forgotten. The answer was
most certainly yes"
And then the conversation ran on
smoother lines.-Baltimore News.

GREENWOOD.

As we place ourselves at the table to
pencil down few happenings, the first
thought is that the first half of the year
is past, and the second is fairly under
way; that at least 10 million persons
have been born, and about the same
number died, since the new century
came in, three of whom death took from
this neighborhood.
c. W. Stanley was here recently, can
wasting for a newspaper. He lives in
Lowell, and is well acquainted with the
place where Lovell's Fight occurred in

believed about there, he said it was
generally considered as doubtful.

There is a good deal of hoeing to be
done yet, while the grass is all ready for
the scythe; but there has not been much
weather for getting hay of late on ac-
! count of the rain.
Friday shower passed over, accom-
panied with little hail, and Saturday
afternoon another, which was nothing
less than first class tempest, accom-
panied with still more hail, and the most
vivid lightning and heaviest thunder for
years. There was no damage done about
here, but was in other places. George
Coles house was struck, and his sister,
Mrs. Pierce, who was there on visit,

barn on the same premises.

anniversary of the marriage of Mr.. and
Mrs. A. K. Hicks, about twenty-five of
the neighbors and relatives assembled at
the house where a good dinner and later
on, ice cream was served. The parties
intended to have the knot tied there, but
Mr.. Chase being too feeble to leave
home, they rode over and had it done at
his residence. Fifteen years ago Mr..
and Mrs. Hicks had an anniversary we'd
ding, when Minnie Coffin read an original
poem, written expressly for the occasion;
and on the latter the same poem was
read again by another person, and claim
ed to be equally appropriate. In the
evening of the Fourth the newly married
couple had their reception, about seven
ty-fve participating in the festival which
was said to be grand success.
There was baby born not far away
