How They Got Married.
. Youths Cnmnanion.

FROM tne 1Outh'S Companion.
The mountain region of east Tennessee
is inhabited by the descendants of the
pioneer families who retain something of
the spirit of adventure that led to the
first settlement. These people have held
to the traditions of the past and many
interesting survivals are to be found
among them. David B. Parker. "a chau-
tauqua boy Of 81 tells this story:
II stayed overnight once at the house
of preacher named Hatcher. who lived
near the point where Kentucky. Tennes-
see and Virginia meet. Elder Hatcher
was very noted as a preacher, and run
away couples from Virginia and Tennes-
see made his house their Gretna Green.
The old elder and his wife told me
many stories while we sat by their fire
in the evening. Mr.. Hatcher said that
within short time young couple. with
some friends, had ridden to his house
from the Tennessee side, pursued by
party of the brides relations. A heavy
the Virginia side of his house was corn
crib. they all climbed into that. and he
married the couple in the corncrib. in
the state Of Virginia Before long the
pursuing party arrived. and he and his
reconciliation At this point the old lady
broke in and said:
90 law. it's all humbug. These young
folks in Tennessee and Virginia always
did run away to get married
Now he interrupted, don't you tell
too much
"I am going to tell 1t ALL, said she.
They even set up the job to have them
run away, and a number of them. some
times her father among them. go riding
after them. carrying guns on their shoul-
ders. Why, the average girl in this sec
ton would think she wasn't properly
married If it wasn't a runaway match;
and if they ran away and were not pur-
sued by a good party, all the relations
would say that 1t was a good riddance
and nobody cared about the girl. So.
from all round they turn out and run
their horses after them. Old man. you
know how you and I got married?'"

Why Worry About Insomnia?
From the Atlantic.


A favorite dictum of the physiolo-
gists. empha sized in their latest works,
relates to the dangers of sleeplessness
sleep is more important to life. than
nutrition. and insomnia kills sooner
than starvation" to quote the exact
words of one. This has been kind of
tradition in medicine. and is reiterated
again and again in these books with
out any real evidence. so far as 1 know,
to support it. Taught to every medical
man of older generations and to every
medical fiedgling of today. it finds it's
way to general public acceptance. be-
getting in the lay mind terrors of in
sanity and death which haunt every
unfortunate victim of insomnia. The
fear of not sleeping is one of the COM
monest causes of insomnia. Yet 1 do
not know of any medical evidence any
where of disastrous results from in
somnia, and have myself never seen
any harm arise from sleeplessness.
apart from the harm done by the fears
and worries associated with the condi-
ton.

The Good Old Times.

From COllier's.
A keen observer tells us that very
seldom In the history Of the world had
the race for wealth been so keen. or
the passion for speculation SO univer-
sal, or the standard of public honesty
SO low" This is the verdict of Will
liam Edward Hartpole Lecky in the
thirteenth chapter of his History of
England in the Eighteenth Century,
and he Is writing on the condition or
what later became the United States In
the year 1878. The point Is of interest
to all of US who are too apt to think
that there once were good times. The
golden age of honor and of achieve
ment Is now and it Is ours.
