The Eye Of the Media.

When Christ says In his sermon
that 1t Is easier for camel to pass
through the eye of needle than II IL
for rich man to enter the kingdom
of heaven" he does not mean q sewing
needle, but hole through which q
camel had to pass through in getting
into fortress. 1t was the custom In
old times, and in parts of Arabia still
is, for the people Of village to build
a fortress against the robbers Of the
desert, into which they carried an un-
derground passage in zigzag form
barely large enough for camel lying
down on It's side to work itself through
into the courtyard of the fort, and the
Saviour beautifully compares the strug-
giles of the animal to what the rich man
must suffer in order to gain paradise.
The hole was called 1.-The eye Of the
needle"
In the old stone cahirs, or walled
cities, in Ireland specimens of these
eyeholes may be seen. Most Of them
have been partially destroyed, but
there Is one almost perfect at Grianan
Elleach. in Donegal, and so like the
eastern eyeholes that one would think
they were made by the same workmen.
The Irish annals relate that Eileach
was erected by a Tuach de Daanan
chief 1900 years before Christ.-Ex-

TURNED THE JOKE.
The Way a Bridegroom Got the Laugh
on His "Funny" Chum.

Under the thin disguise of harmless
fun many an objectionable rude prank
Is played upon newly married couples.
1t is refreshing to hear of an occasion.
al instance in which the "joke" reacts
on the joker. A young man and his
bride, who had just been married in a
western town, were starting on their
wedding journey. They had managed
TO reach the train in safety despite the
showers of rice and old shoes.
Just as they had taken their seats in
the car one Of the bridegroom's chums
came hastily IN to bid him goodby. AS
the young husband extended his hand
the friend snapped handcuff round
his wrist.
The groom had been suspecting a
trick of some kind. and before the
practical joker could play similar
trick on the bride he found the other
handcuff snapped round his own wrist.
He was chained to the happy BRIDE
groom himself.
'That's good one on me, Harry"
he said, with sickly kind Of smile,
"but I'll have to ask you to come to the
door with me and get the key to these
things from the fellow outside that's
got 1t. !Iold on, conductor. just min

of a sharp file and hammer, succeed

joker meanwhile had had to pay full
fare for the fifty miles and still had
his fare home to pay.

Huntington, to witness the marriage
of her niece, Miss Elizabeth Virginia
Wyatt, to Dr. Jake Edwin Haslam,of

The spacious parlor was beautiful

and many white tapers shed a soft
light over the improvised altar, bank
ed with feathery ferns and stately
palms.
Promptly at the hour appointed,
Miss Mary Niles, of Marshallville, be-

the sweet strains fioated through the

Master Charles Huntington Wheatley,
and dainty Miss Sarah Sheffield.
The three bridesmaids entered one
by one. Miss Florence Niles, Miss
Vallie Williams and Miss Virginia
Gum. Dressed in airy white with
pink ribbons, and carrying bouquets
of pink roses tied with pink tulle,
they made a beautiful picture as they
grouped themselves about the altar.
Then came the maid of honor, Miss
Mamie Wyatt, the lovely sister of the
bride, dressed in pink, with bouquet
of white carnations.
The groom entered at the left with
his best man, DR.. c. J. Wall, of At
lanta, and met the bride at the altar.
No painters brush ever created a
fairer picture than the bride, as she
entered on the arm of her cousin, Hon.
| Crawford Wheatley.
Gowned in soft, shimmering white
and carrying bouquet of brides S
roses, her rich veil caught upon her
dark hair with a circlet of lilies-of-the
valley, shadowed, but did not conceal
the dainty figure and lovely face, as
she gave her hand to the man of her
choice, and together they knelt before
the altar, and to Rev. J. P Wardlaw,
repeated the vows that made them
one.
In the dining room the color scheme
of pink and white was carried out to
