Marriage Not a Failure.
 That a minister must be on his guard just the same as other mortals Is the lesson conveyed by the. experience of one popular clergyman whose church Is crowded with representative busi- ness men Moreover, Dr. - is a business man himself and is an offGial In a we'll known mercantile agency. For this reason he Is supposed to be A little more shrewd than the average man of the cloth. This is the story of a unique wedding at which he ofnciat- ed:
 sOne evening the butler entered my study said the clergyman. He wore a broad grin and carried card in his hand.
 "'The gentleman says they are very anxious to see you said the butler.
 "'Whom do you mean by "they? asked rather sharply. You know never receive callers on Saturday,
 "Its a gentleman and d lady, and they say they have to catch train, sir
 T sent the servant out. telling him to tell the persons I could not see them Presently the butler returned trying to suppress another grin. He handed me card. on which was writ ten fin a masculine hand: "'Dear Sir-We want to be married and are here only for the evening from Philadelphia. Please. please marry us.'
 Well, did not wish to be disturb ed, but when a man wants to be mar ried real bad the best thing to do is to marry him and get through with it as quickly as possible. So I put aside the manuscript of my sermon for the following day and told the butler to usher the pair into the study
 ''The man was a large, fine looking chap. with a well to do air, and of the incisive city bred type. From the man. ner in which he stated the facts rela- tive to the ceremony I felt he was tell ing the truth. After the ceremony had been performed he called me aside and said in an embarrassed way:
 Doctor. came over here just for a days outing, and only brought money enough for the usual necessary ex- pensse. I want to show you that I ap- preciate your kindness in performing this marriage, and I shall have to ask you to cash check for me, if you will
 This was rather a strange proceed ure. but the man showed me several letters-or, rather. envelopes-address ed to the name he sa"". They bore as return card the names of men well known to me in business. I Happened to have the money he asked for. The check was drawn for $50.
 Just let me have $100 on that. Doctor, said the man. I intend that you shall have $50 as your fee, if that is satisfactory
 T replied that $50 was perfectly sat tsfactory, and the pair left with my s10o. That half hour cost me just that sum, for the check came back marked N C."

Their Firrt Falnehood.

It is said there should be implicit confidence between married folk" said Fifth avenue clergyman whose church is not far from Fortieth street. "I am believer in this little injunction but I am also certain that l once mar ried a couple who tried to deceive not only one another, but even themselves at the alter. I knew them bot. He was bachelor of seventy: she was a spins ter of about sixty. But you would not have thought so when they came to get me to marry them. She was attired like a shopgirl out for her first ball, and his raiment bespoke the youthful dude of twenty-two or twenty-three' His snow white mustache had been dy- ed black and waxed until the ends looked like knitting needles
 T ask them their ages.
 'Thirty-five,' he said gravely.
 Thirty, she simpered.
 Now each was aware of deceiving the other, but I want to tell you both looked positively happy and untroubled over the constituencies falsehood with which they had begun their married life"

Hymens altars are set up in strange places and many are the curious things that happen at his shrines. Countless are the romances that lead to marriage. But if courtship-love-h taken Eastern form so har marriage. The only reason why we do not hear so much of unique marriages as we do or odd love affairs Is that sentiment clus- ters around the little god with the DOW and arrows rather than the deity sup posed to preside over the nnptial rites.
 Comedy, tragedy, bathos and pathos. all that is unique. much that Is com monplace are to be found in the mar riages performed by the average cier- gyman who has grown old in the ser vice of the church. The Sundya Adver- tiser endeavored to get some lead- ing divines of New York to give from their rich stores of experiences some narratives of the oddest' marriages at which each ever officiated Some were unwilling to relate these stories, but several complied, although they were firm in insisting that their names be not made public.

ORE AT BRADFORD.
President Dwight Received News That Copper Had Been Struck at
 100 Feet.

A teiegYaphic communication receiv- ed ta Bisbee yesterday afternoon from the Bradford Development company. whose property is located near Tue son. gives the information that copper had been struck in the morning in the shaT at q depth of 100 feet says the Bisbee Review. The welcome message was received by F. l.. Dwight. of this city. Eho Is president of the company. The extent of the find was not divulg
 ed in the telegram. but Mir Dwight firmly believes that the disclosure made is of great importance. as the management at the mine would not have sent the news unless it wa meant to be highly encouraging.
 The Bradford property consists of thirty one claims in the Helveia and Empire mining district, Pima county. The company is capitalized with less shares, probably, that any other de velopment company in the territory. Fifty thousand dollars is the amount of capital stock divided into J,r0O shares. Only one-fifth of this amount 1. on the market, the remainder being

RIBBONS OF GOLD OR SILVER
 GAUZE.

Superb ribbons of gold or silver gauge, upon which are embroidered flower designs in a high relief and in soft faded colors, are utilized in many ways for trimming but their gor- geousness demands that they should be employed sparingly and with true ap- preciation of artistic values.
 The same caution applies to all the gold trimmings which glorify the trim ming counters. touch of the beau tiful gold or silver lace may be the making of a frock, but an excess of | will work havoc. and in all expert menting with gold and silver ornamen- tation it is wise to err on the side of discretion.-New York Sun.

Cures Colds, Coughs, catarrh and Grip
 Just Breathe 1t.

Hyomei is natures own method ;or curing catarrh, colds. coughs and dis eases of the respiratory organs. It is the oniy natural treatment for the cure of these troubles.
 Breathed through the neat pocket in haler that comes with every outfit, the air that passes into the throat and lungs, is identical with that on the mountains, where it is laden with heal ing and health giving balsams. It searches out and kills disease germs in the most remote and minute air cells of the head. throat and lungs, it soothes and heals all irritation of the mucous membrane.
 Hyomei is prescribed by physicians generally. Many of them use it them selves to break up a cold and prevent pneumonia.
 The complete Hyomei outfit consists of a neat inhaler, that is so small and convenient that it can be carried in the pocket or purse, a medicine dropper and a bottle of Hyomei. This costs but $1. and it will cure any ordinary case of catarrh. In chronic and deep seated conditions, longer use is necessary and extra bottles of Hyomei can be obtain ed for soc, making it a most economi- cal treatment for this disease.
 H. Goodman has so much confidence in the power of Hyomei to cure catarrh and other diseases of the throat and lungs that he sells it under his per sonal guarantee to refund the money to any purchaser in case it fails to give satisfaction. He takes all the risk himself, and Hyomei costs you abbso- lutely nothing unless it does you good.

RHEUMATISM IN ELBOWS, WRISTS
 AND KNEES.
 Urbana, Ohio, Aug. 25, 1908. Last winter I had a severe attack of Rheumatism. It started in the right elbow, and from there to my wrists; the right wrist was the worse. It became swollen and extremely painful. My left knee joint was the next place to be at- tackled. It became swollen and of course painful. The next point to be affected was the hip and ankle, which gave me much trouble. I was barely able to get about for some time. I was under treat ment of 8 physician for awhile, but get ting no better I began 8. S. s., and after taking it for some time was entirely relieved of the Rheumatism. All swelling and soreness disappeared. I consider 8. s. s. an excellent remedy for Rheuma- tism and all troubles having their origin in the blood.
