Fashionable Marriage.

Truly, marriage, fashion
ably considered, is as far from
marriage humanity or divinely
considered as it is possible
for a burlesque to be from an
original. 1t is the union of
two persons--body, mind and
soul-for life, "'fol better, for
worse, for richer, for poorer.
In burlesque, it is an arrange
ment by which two persons
appear to the world as one,
sit together at the table, &C.
cupy the same rooms, have
their names on the same
cards, sit la the same pew
and opera box, but beneath
which they hide q great deal
of incongruity, and behind
which they lead separate
lives. In the original it is a
connection which forms the
basis of a home; in the bur-
lesque, it is a connection
which furnishes the pretext
for keeping up an establish
ment. In the original, it sug-
gests quiet, fireside occupa-
tions, domestic tastes, books.
talk, reading, cosy rooms,
comfortable easy chairs, af.
fectionate confidence between
man and woman, plans for
entertainment and improve
ment, household economies,
all of the varied enjoyments
that can be held between four
walls Of brick or wood; in the
burlesque, it suggests hustle:
activity, excitement. engag-
ments to dinner, company,
parlors where no one thinks
Of sitting down for a purpose,

pets, mirrors, chandeliers and
gilt books, absence of conf
dence, estrangement, divided
interests, 8 late breakfast

feminine solitude. and mas
culine billiards Or something
else in the evening, coldness,
Indifference, extravaganza,

A GOman.s Completion.

It is rack foolishuess to attempt
to remove sallowness or greEsines:
of the skin by the use of cosmetics,
or 'local'' treatment, as advocated
by the "beauty doctors. The only
safe and sure way that woman can
improve her complexion is by purify
ing and enriching the blood, which
can only be accomplished by keeping
the liver healthy and active. The
liver is the seat of disease and blood
pollution. Green's August Flower
acts directly On the liver, cleanses
and enriches the blesd, purifies the
complexion It alss cures consti-
patton, bilieusness, nervousness, and
induces refreshing sleep. A single
bottle of August Flower has been
known to cure the most pronounced
and distressing case Of dyspepsia
and digestion. New trial size bottle

FINISHED BY FEBRUARY
Satisfactory Work Being Made on the
State Railroad In the Direction 4
of Palestine.

Risk, Texas, June 25.-All material
is assembled for the construction of
the bridge across the Neches river,
sixteen miles from here, for the state
rail soad Although nothing has been
said about the construction of the
state road, satisfactory progress has
been made, considering the limited
force, only 300 convicts being en-
plqEed, and the delay and ravages of
nigh water The bridge is to be
rather extensive affair, but not as
long as that already completed and in
use by the state railroad over Tales
Greek. 1t is 1000 feet in length,
which is longer than that to be built
5eser the Neches. With the compile
ton of the Neches river bridge con-
struction to Palestine will not be near
SO difficult. The building of the two
bridges were problems to be reckon
ed with, and now that the largest has
been finished, and trains running over
it every day, the completion of the
second and last large structure will
be the consummation of the plans for
direct connection with Palestine.
Once over the Neches river construc-
ton will be easy sailing, though some
months will be required to get into
Palestine because of the small force
of conyicts available for the work.
The sugar farms have drawn a large
number, leaving only few for the
Important iron industry at the prison

The state road is now in operation
