A PATHETIC APPEAL.
The Moving Plea of Divorced Man
Who Wanted to Wed Again.

w no w ahteu 10 Gu ABAAAs
The following plea for judicial mercy
sent to US by correspondent, says Law
Notes, will be found brimful of pathos:
Elk parte Samuel Rice. To the Hon. ii.
A Sharpe, Judge of the City Court Of
Birmingham, in Equity:
Your petitioner, Samuel Rice of Mo-
bile Ala, would deferentially represent
that on Jan. 10, in the year of grace
1891, your honor dissolved the connubial
ties heretofore existing between petit
toner and his consort, Annie Rice, grant
ing her a divorce vinculo ct matri-
monii, with the beatific privilege there
unto annexed of marrying again, privi-
lege, it goes without saying, she availed
herself of with an alacrity of spirit and
fastidious levity disdaining pursuit,
but on this vital point your honor ex-
tended to petitioner only the charity of
your silence.
Petitioner has found in his own expe
rience a truthful eXemplifcation of Holy
Scripture, that it is not well for man to
be alone" and, seeing an inviting oppor-
tunity to superbly ameliorate his forlorn
condition by a second nuptial venture,
he finds himself circumvallated by an
Ossa Pelion obstacle, which your honor
alone has power to remove.
His days rapidly verging on the sere
and yellow leaf, the fruits and flowers of
love all going, the worm, the canker and
the grief in sight, with no one to love
and none to caress him, petitioner feels
an indescribable yearning, longing and
heaving to plunge his adventurous PROV
once more into the vexed waters of the
sea of Connubiality. Wherefore other
refuge having none and wholly trusting
to the tender benignity and sovereign dis
erection of your honor, petitioner humbly
prays that in view of the accompanying
fats of great cloud of reputable citi-
zens, giving him a phenomenally good
name and fair fame, you will have COM
passion on him and relieve him of the
hymenea disability under which his ex-
istence has become a burden by award
ing him the like privilege of marrying
again, thus granting him a happy issue
out of the Red sea of troubles into which
a pitiless fate has whelmed him. For,
comforting as the velvety touch of an
angels palm to the fever racked brow,
and soothing as the strains of an Rolian
harp when swept by the fingers of the
night wind, and dear as those ruddy
drops that visit these sad hearts of ours,
and sweet as sacramental wine to dying
lips, 1t is when lifes ftful fever is ebb-
ing to its close to pillow ones aching
head on some fond wifely bosom and
breathe his life out gently there.
And in duty bound to attain the posi-
bility of comprising such a measureless
benediction, petitioner will pray without
ceasing, in accents as loud and earnest as
ever issued from celibatarian lips.
SAMUEL RICE, Petitioner.

Many People Are Color Blind.

A curious fact about the eye as re.
CARDS its perception of color is that one
in 20 persons is afflicted with red blind
ness. In the normal eye the edges of the
retina are not sensitive to the sensation
Of red light-that is, cannot see red color.
In some eyes this popularity will extend
itself to half the extent Of the retina, and
III very many others Ito no less indeed
than one In 20 this spreads over the
whole of the retina. The possessors of
such eyes will confuse in the most curious
manner dark green and yellow with red.
This is not always apparent, but a few
tests will surely bring it out, and we
should be amazed TO find how many of us
are subject to this partial color blindness.

BEFORE NIGHT.

1t is the hour when faints the long gold day,
That hour when all the spent world signs to
rest,
The low wind sleeps the lilies idly sway
And drops the bee into the roses breast.
Now the last weary swallow wheels on high,
fash of silver on the rosy light;
Soon the first star shall CLEAN in the still sky
And earth be clasped by the cool arms of night.
Now the round notes of restless birds are dead,
Peace on the scented land and shimmering sea;
Now sorrow fades as fades the sunset red,
And with the tender night comes peace to mel

Diseases are like weeds. All they ask
is neglect and they will grow and -four
ish. Neglect the first symptoms of dis
ease of the stomach and it will not be
long before other organs are involved,
because every organ of the body is de-
pendent on the stomach and its allied
organs for nutrition. When the stomach
and other organs of digestion and nutri-
ton are diseased the food eaten is
not perfectly digested and assimilated.
Hence there is loss of nutrition by the
body; loss which shows itself in loss of
flesh, and reduced weight, and that loss
of nutrition is shared by every organ of
the body, heart, lungs, liver, kidneys,
etc. AS a consequence when the sto1n-
ach is diseased, the heart is liable to be
involved, or the lungs, kidneys or liver.
These facts emphasize the danger OF
neglect of what is popularity termed
