An Objection to Wedding Ceremony
That Was Overruled.

An Objection to a Wedding Ceremony
That Was Overruled.
A popular politician tells story
about one Of his electioneering cam
paigns. He had arrived about noon at
a certain small station He started out
after dinner for a walk about the vii.
lage. on the outskirts of which he
came upon a building thronged with
people.
The building was church, and q
wedding was about to take place. he
edged his way through the crowd until
he reached a spot where he had a good
view Of the bride and bridegroom and
the clergyman who was about to per-
form the ceremony.
The church was packed. with the ex-
ception of low, dark gallery near the
roof. This was apparently deserted.
The minister proceeded with the
ceremony until be came to the point
where custom required him to pause
and inquire if there was any one pres
ent who knew any reason why the
couple should not be made husband
and wife, A hush fell upon the as
semblage, and every one waited in
breathless suspense. Something Of a
sensation was caused when a voice
came from the upper gallery, saying:
Eyes, l do"
All eyes were turned to the gallery,
where seated all alone in the gloom.
barely discernible, was a meek looking
disheveled hair. After the clergyman
had recovered from his surprise he
said sternly. Estate your reason. sir"
The suspense was turned to merri-
ment by the little mans reply:
Il want the girl myself he said

Rest Your Eyes.

The moment you are instinctively in
clined to rub the eyes that moment
cease to use them Also it is time to
give your eyes a rest when you be-
come sensible of an effort to distin-
guish. Cold water is about the safest
application for infamed eyes. Never
sleep so that on awakening the eyes
shall open on the light of window.
Never read or sew directly in front Of
the light of window, the better light
being that that comes from above or
obliquely or over the left shoulder.
Too much light is an evil, just as is
scant light. 1t creates a glare that
pains and confuses the sight.

Why We Are Stronger.

The old Greeks and Romans were
great admirers of health and strength:
their pictures and statuary made the
muscles Of the men stand out like
cords.
AS a matter Of fact we have ath-
letes and strong men-men fed on
fine strength making food such as
Quaker Oats-that would win in any
contest with the old Roman or Greek
champions.
It's matter of food. The finest food
for making strength Of bone, muscle
and nerve; is fine oatmeal. Quaker
Oats is the best because it is pure, no
husks or stems or black specks. Farm
ers' wives are finding that by feeding
the farm hands plentifully on Quaker
Oats they get the best results in work
and economy. If you are convenient
to the store, buy the regular size pack
ages; If not near the store buy the
large size family package. IS

RoHNs CONDITION HOPEFUL.
Dr. Lse-keIson Believed to Be Hid ing.

Dr. H. M. Lee, who operated upon Harry Bohn, the seaman who was stabbed Friday night at New London, gave out the statement on Tuesday that there was reason to look upon the condition of the patient more hopeful ly, Tuesday. Some encouragement could be held out for his recovery, the doctor said.
 Late Tuesday afternoon Bohn was resting as we'll as could be expected. He has had a fair day.
 United States cruiser Olympia, flag ship of the midshipmen's practice squadron, remained in port until five o'clock Monday afternoon, to conclude the official Investigation being made into the stabbing of ordinary seaman Bohn of Friday night.
 Sam Nelson, the negro who stabbed Harry Bonn, is still at large, although every effort possible has been made to capture him. Nelson is believed tc have been hiding in the vicinity of New London. The police think that he will stay in hiding as long as he can. When he begins to try to get away they are confident they will get him.
 Nelson, who is described as being about five feet nine inches in height, is a mulatto. He, has a scar over the right eye and his general appearance is such that he would be easily rec ognized from his photograph, copies of which have been sent to every police department in this section of the coun- try The last seen of Nelson by anyone the police know anything about was when he was headed for the Fort Neck freight yard and was on Shaw street within three quarters of an hour after Bohn was stabbed. The police are practically satisfied however, that Ks1- son did not escape by means of a freight train leaving the yard. All along the railroad tower men watched for Nelson on trains and at New Ha- ven and Providence the police made a thorough search of every incoming train. With the increasing gravity of Bohn's condition the police and sher- ifs are making an increased effort to get trace of Nelson.
