WED SERy ANT GIRLS
MANY GREAT MEN HAVE DEFIEQ
LIES COMMEMORATIVE
Romanee in the Life OF william Cob
bett. the Liberator of the English
Press'-Sir Henry Parkes Premier OF
New south Wa4es, Married His Cook

The young man in society who
caused his family great pain and anger
the other day by marrying his servant
girl can plead the excuse OF many cele-
brated men eXtenuatiOn a JUS
LITIGATION of his act
There was William Cobbett, the great
writer, and the 't1iberator of the Eng
lish press as he is frequently called.
He only 81 years of age when,
walking out in the streets of Halifax,
Nova Scotia, one morning, he CHANGED
to see buxom servant girl busily en-
gagged in washing the family linen The
girl, though only IS years of age, was
pretty. SO Cobbett spoke to her, learned
her name, and the same evening called
upon her parents and said he would
like to marry their daughter.
This is probably the origin of the
expression, This is SO sudden which
blushing naidens have made use of
ever since.
The parents of the girl informed the
young man that they had no objection
to him as a son-in-law, but that he
would have to- wait until their daugh-
ter was of a marriag ea BILE age.
Accordingly Cobbett gave the girl all
the money he had, which amounted to
$40. and she went to England and
became a servant in the family of a
clergyman. Five years later Goblet
returned to England and married her.
The late Sir Henry Parkes, premier
of New South Wales, is another exam
pie One night, when dining at a
friends house. he was struck by the
appearance of a servant girl who wait
ed at the table, and persuaded his host
to allow her to enter his employ. This
she did, and for short time held the
position of cook in Sir Henry's house
hold. Then his love for her overca me
all conventiona1ities and he made her
Lady ParkeS.

Day, however, admired the girls
courage, and settled dowry of C 500

remain bachelor.
But more iI1ustrious than all these
examples is that of Peter the Great.

Partly because of Good Forum" and Partly
because He was Watching and searching.
When Columbus set sail in search of a
new continent the wise men ot his time
called him an adventurous fool. Yet he
djsc0cered .America. You may say that
was an accident. Yes, but it was,the kind
of accident that happens only to men who
are looking for it. During long profess
ional practice DIR. Da,,l Kennedy, of
Kingston, n. Y, was coutnnally watching
out for better medicine than any thus far
known for certain complaints. He could
not imagine when or how he should find it;
perhaps. (more likely indeed) lie should
never find it Mt all So he thought. But
the right idea came to him finally and the
result was the preparation called Calcura
Solvent. The name means solvent, or
discover, of stone, or chalk deposits, III the
kidneys or bladder; a remedy for the cure
of gravel, and of diseases caused by various
toxic or poisonous substances or acids in the
blood or glands. Experiment showed that
Calcura Solvent would cure red or white
gravel without pain or danger to the patient,
and expel from the system the ullc acid
which causes govt and rheumatism. If it
did no more DIR. Xennedy's discovery would
stand as one of the most useful ones III the
history of medicine, but it is equally effect
i've in complaints of the digestive organs.
