It's the experience of every one. Sooner or later we all take cold. Colds naturally tend downward, that's the trouble. Ayers Cherry Pec- toral stops this downward tendency and quickly cures these early colds. Ask your doctor. If he says this isn't so, don't believe us.

WHO OWNS WEDDING e1Frsp

An exchange gives the following ac.
 count of a novel lawsuit in Providence
 R. l.:
 The ownership of wedding gifts was the basis of a suit tried here between William H. Moss and his former wife. The plaintiff alleged that wedding gifts. which he gave temporarily into the pos session of the defendant. or the parents of his wife (Nina Bass Moss). are being retained in spite of the fact that he is their sole owner. Witnesses for the de- fense claimed that Moss. after separat- ing from his wife, had made the latter a gift of the articles at issue. MT. Bass ac- knowledged that the plaintiff had made demand of him for the goods, but Mrs. Moss denied that she had been requested to give back the wedding gifts. The wedding gifts were taken to the Bass home when the daughter returned there
 Several friends and relatives of Moss appeared in court and testified that they had sent presents, including oil paintings
 and silverware. at the time of the wed-
 ding, but the presents, they say, were in- tended for Moss alone. The prosecu-
 ton denied that Moss had ever made a gift of the articles to his wife after their separation.
 Charles H. Melee for the defense, said
 that the presents belonged jointly to MT. Moss and wife At the time of the we'd l ding they were sent to her home, and
 they bore no cards stating that they were for the husband.
 | Judge Feely then had something to say concerning the ethics of wedding gifts | He maintained that if one sends a pres- ent to a person about to be married, the gift belongs exclusively to the man or | woman for whom it is intended, and moi 1 necessarily to both of the couple. Con. | vention requires that the gift be serh tc
 the brides home, and for the sake of delicacy no distinction is made between l the bride and bridegroom, but. neverthe.
 less, the title to the gift rests in the per
 son remembered by the donor. Mrs. Nina Bass Moss claimed that th. l articles in question had been given her
 by her husband when the separation came. Mir. and Mrs. Moss have beer
 married only short while. and they separated last summer. The goods claim. ed are valued at $s0.

KING EDWARD TO
 CHANGE SOCIAL SYSTEM.

It is said that London society is de- lighted with the announcement that King Edward intends to completely change the system of holding drawing rooms. Not only are they to be held atonight, but admission to them is to be 'secNfed by invitation instead of by Application through the Lord Chamberlain. as for merly No one will be allowed to attend more frequently than once in two years. The rule ig not expected to be enforced in the case of those personal friends who now have the entree of Marlborough House.
 From the same source 1t is learned that in England some anxiety has lately been exhibited among peers and peeresses as to whether the supply o6 ermine will be sufficient for the coronation ceremonies. No fewer than sixty ermine skins are re- quired for each peers cape, and the same number is needed for his collar. As a re- Ruit of the increased demand ermine now costs as for a timber of forty skins, che highest price known in the trade, and khe price is still rising. The majority of khe skins coane from Siberia, where the trappers are busy. The prodigious demand here for ernine has also, according to the English fur merchants, stimulated it's growing popularity in the United States.
 THE EYES OF ALL NATIONS.
 France has one blind person to every 100 inhabitants.
 In Egypt twenty-one natives were kill cd because of defective vision during the first weeks operation of an electric rail- way.
 Tn Germany and England there is one blind person to every 1000.
 China has more blind than all other countries. Spain comes next
 America averages only one in every 1,500, the lowest per cent of any coun- try. This is explained in the fact that scientific adjustment of the glasses has reached it's greatest perfection in this country.
