MARRIAGE AND SUCCESS.
Early Alliances, Quite Commonly Dis
countenanced, Do Not Always
Result in Failure.

We are used to look grave when a
young man takes a wife unto himself
with what seems to us to be undue pre-
cipitation, and if presently we see a
young family growing punctually up
around him. says the Metropolitan Mag
azine, maybe We wag our heads bit
and say it was a pity that young Buxton
cid not wait until he had got q round or
two further up the ladder We say we
don't like to see young fellow over
weighted at the start, and we know of
men Of promise who incurred domestic
blessings SO early in life and in such
numbers that all their lives they never
did better than to stagger on under
their load. We say they never had a
chance to get where they belonged, and
we fear it is going to be so with Mr.. Bux-
ton.
But if Buxton has got his start and
seems to be the right sort, and if that
demure young Lucy seems to have some
hard sense and due constancy, in what
ever disguise, under her ribbons and
muslin, let's not croak unduly nor fore
cast a lot of bogy troubles that are not
actually in sight. Keeping body and
soul together is not sodesperately COM
plicated a task as some of us have grown
to think it. Lots of people don't starve
to death.

Padua, in spite of its fiat surroundings,
is one Of the most picturesque cities of
upper Italy; and the seeker after gar.
dens will find many charming bits along
the narrow canals; or by the sluggish
river skirting the city walls. Indeed,
one might almost include in study Of

WEDDINGS TOO EXPENSIVE.
Costly Accessories Often Unnecessary
and May Be Curtailed with
Perfect Propriety.

Recently q woman who has dWelt
maQy years in the fashionable world
remarked that as the years go on and
the expenses-which include modern
necessaries -increase, in the same ratio,
the requirements of an up-to-oate fash
ionableSlife multiply; and these nova
days are totally different from those OF
even rs years ago.
Formerly a brides trousseau was all
that she had to think about. Now, how
ever, she finds that there are other &C
cessories which considerably augment
her expenses.
One very costly item is the expensive
souvenir of the occasion in the shape of
some article of jewelry which she is ex-
pected to give to each one of her brides
maids, and often also (although this is
not obligatory, some costly item of the
bridesmaids dresses, such as hat, muff
or some other accessory.
Besides these she, too, must in these
latter days give farewell dinner to her
attendants and especial friends, which
is generally a hen" function, although
some prefer to enliven the entertain
ment by the introduction of the mascu-
line element.
All of which, taken together, forms
no inconsiderable portion of the general
outlay, the aggregate sum of which
amounts in some cases to small for
tune.
There is only one decent way to get
out of all this" said a bride-elect recent
ly, land that is to have no bridesmaids
at all. 1fyou have them you are expected
to do all these things, and my people
find that my trousseau and wedding
breakfast are quite sufficient to please
the family, without all the rest of it, so
I am going to cut all that out"

Learn to Keep Your Temper.

One OF the most difficult things to do,
sometimes, is to keep ones temper. "A
calm serenity of temper and self
control which keeps person unruff1ed
amid the petty annoyances and ills of
everyday life indicate the possession of
perfect mental health. Nowadays peo-
pie are very fond of saying so-and-so
was "just mad" meaning very angry;
but it would be we'll if temper were more
often seriously regarded as madness.
1t may be preventable madness, but
madness it is while it lasts, and there
is seldom anyone who is made more I'M
happy by it than the person who gives
way to it. In our treatment of the ILL
tempered the cultivation of the art of lot

useful art all through life.-N. Y.

SAFEST FOOD

In Any Time of Trouble Is Grape-Nuts
Food to rebuild the strength and
that is pre- digested must be selected
when one Is, convalescent. At this
time there is nothing so valuable as
Grape-Nuts for the reason that this
food is all nourishment and is also all
digestible nourishment. A woman
who used it says:
Some time ago I was very i'll with
typhoid fever, so i'll everyone thought
would die, even myself. 1t left me
SO weak l could not properly digest
food of any kind and also had much
bowel trouble which left me weak,
helpless wreck.
II needed nourishment as badly as
anyone could, but none of the tonics
helped me until I finally tried Grape
Nuts food morning and evening. This
not only supplied food that I thought
delicious as could be but it also made
me Perfectly we'll and strong again so
can do all my homework, sleep we'll,
can eat anything without any trace of
bowel trouble and for that reason
alone Grape-Nuts food is worth its
weight in gold" Name given by

Grapefruit is invaluable for the we'll

Hrs. Do Long Finds that the Indescrlbable
Pains of Rheumatism Can be Cured
Through the Blood.
r Mrs. E. M. De Long, Of No. 100 West
Broadway, Council Bluffs, Iowa, found
herself suddenly attacked by rheuma-
tism in the winter of 1896. She gave
the doctor q chance to help her, which
he failed to improve, and then she did
some thinking and experimenting of her
own. She was so successful that she
deems it her duty to tell the story of her
escape from suffering:
my brother-in-law," she says" was
enthusiastic on the subject of DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills as a purifier of the
blood, and whenI was suffering extreme
pains in the joints Of my ankles, knees,
hips, wrists and elbows, and the doctor
was giving me no relief, began to re-
feet that rheumatism is disease of
the blood and that, if DR.. Williams Pink
Pills are SO good for the blood, they
must be good for rheumatism and worth
trial.
II was in bed half the time, suffering
with pain that cannot be described to
one who has never had the disease. It
would concentrate sometimes in one set
Of joints. When it was in my feet I
could not walk, when it was in my ell
bows and wrists could not even draw
the ccverlets over my body. I had suf-
fered in this way for weeks before be-
gan using DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
Two weeks after I began with them I
experienced relief and after had taken
six boxes I was entirely well. To make
sure continued to use them about two
weeks longer and then stopped alto
gethcr For several years have had no
reason to use them for myself, but
have recommended them to others as an
excellent remedy"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills furnish the
blood with all the elements that are
needed to build up healthy tissue, strong
muscles and nerves., capable of bearing
the strain that nature puts upon them.
They really make new blood and cure
all diseases arising from disorders Of the
blood or nerves, such as sciatica, neural
gia, partial paralysis, locomotor ataxia,
St. Vitus' dance, nervous prostration,
a1l:emia and all forms Of weakness in
either male or female. They are sold by
oil druggists.
