dozen times that they were capable of
 making a wise and judicious choice. What then, makes the happiest mar 1 riage? Those in which there is sympathy, forebearance, consideration between the | two. are undoubtedly the happiest to the eyes of the outside public, and it Is quite true that outsiders see most of the game. And what brings about that state of affairs? Can well-invested money do it.
 or the fact that both sides have known each other nearly six months and half,
 or have been engaged fortnight. or have been in love before, or both like sullivan's operas? Will anyone of these things. or all of them produce that state
 of domestic harmony, that mutual tolera- ton and understanding and friendship
 that alone make the wheels of marriage run smooth? No: it is absurd to suppose or suggest 1t; there is only one great promoter of this state of happiness and that is mutual love
 Then the marriages where love is are the happiest marriages? Undoubtedly: for nothing else helps to smooth away tha inevitable jars and jolts of the chariot of life, and makes it's wheels run with out a hitch.
 All lives have their trials and troubles, but only love can make them endura ble and help the sufferers to support their weight.
 No couple who love each other truly
 have ever been heard even to hint that
 marriage is failure. They would laugh
 at the very idea. They know that mar
 riage is not exempt from trials, any
 more than the other phases of this mor- tai life, But they also know that where love is, marriage halves ones sorrows and doubles ones joys.

of the founder of the winslow family

or the founder Of the WinSlow family in this country
 sFhe founder of the Winslow family in this country was Edward Winslow, who vas married in 161S to Elizabe Barker, who came over to this country with her husband with three servants in the Mayflower. It is down iu the records that he was a gentleman well connected' and "of the best family of any of the pilgrims" This is dis junction claimed by others of their Mayflower grandfathers. Aat any rate Edward has the distinguished prefix MT to his name in the compact. His marriage to the widow, Susanna Fuller White, mother of Peregrine White. the first child born to the oolonists, was the first wedding in Plymouth.
 The record puts it quaintly "Mr. Ed Winslow. his wife dyed, and he married with the widow of Mir. White, and hath two children living by her, marigable, besides sundry that are dead"
 To J. B. L.. who asks for the record of the Lanes in America.
 During the seventeenth century d dozen or more of thu Lane family joined the New Englahd colonisls. In Hingham, Mass, there was George. whose financial rating in 1880, when the meeting house was built, was f2 6s Sd. This is the oldest meeting house III tOIllIuOuS use III NeN flflS 1dlu.
 LanesVille, near Gloucester, was settled and named by John Lane, who moved there from Maine in 1657, A Capt. John Lane is mentioned as among the brave men of the garrison during Phillips war.
 Other pilgrims were William, who came in 1851 and settled in Boston; Deacon Joshut and another William. who both founded homes in New Hampshire, at Hampton. It is thero the Lane family hold their reunions.
 The Lanes have always been famed for patriotism, not shrinking from the duties of military life, as is evident from the number of soldiers in the family, John Lane of Hampton, N. H., and his three sons, John, Daniel and Jabez won renown in war the father in the Indian wars, the sons in the revolution. and each became captain.
 Job Lane, Jr, of Bedford. Mass. left home at midnight. April 19, 1775, and Joined the Minute Men under Captain Wilson.
 I've give you a cold breakfast boys" said the brave captain, but we will give the British hot dinner, and have every one of them before night" It was of the Minute Men at the Concord fight that Lord ercy said: T never saw anything equal to their intrepid ity." Lane was severely wounded, and in 1779 the town of Bedford voted to abate one-half of his war rates In con sideration of his wounds. The follow ing year the town voted to abate his poll tax fo revery year since the war began and he also was given f1t for his services in the army.

 He had been without food or water, and his only sustenance came from a small can of milk which he had put in his pocket when he started out.

LITTLE TRUCE ON THE FIRING LINE
 ABRUPTLY ENDED
German Corporal Began Reading Aloud in English From German Newspaper
 and Friends Parted

Boulogne, January 2S,-(Special.) )--Much of the personal bitterness between the Germans and French has disappeared at certain points along the line where the same enemies have faced each other for sometime This led recently to an ex- traordinary incident in a little village, few miles southeast of Ypres. My inform ant was a soldier sent home because he
 had developed congestion of the lungs
 Outside this village there was a hand ful of the enemy and even fewer of the allied forces
 Trenches had been dug, and for over six days the two enemies remained in- active. During the time the soldiers
 amused themselves by throwing things at one another, the trenches being but short distance apart
 After q week had been past and neither
 side had received any orders as to how to act, the Germans left their arms in
 their trench, and, flying a white flag, entered the allies trench. A short con- versation ensued, and 1t was agreed that they should all live in peace in the trench until orders reached one side or the other
 For a number of days all went smoothly The Germans mostly being able to speak
 
 their new comrades.
 Soon after a messenger was seen in the distance. In all haste the Germans returned to their trench, with a nasty farewell. The messenger, however, proved to be a bearer of letters and papers for Germans.
 Back came the Germans bringing their letters and papers to read with them. Some few hours later trouble broke out in the camp. A German corporal of fered to read the German newspaper in English. The allies gathered round and listened attentively. At last the Ger man started to translate the official com- munique. When he stated that "the gov ernment was pleased to state that 'Kates had been captured, and that an aviator had been successful in setting Paris and Rouen on fire,' the allies lost all respect for their comrades" and, owing to the Germans being unarmed, they drove them back to their trenches with their fists, instead of rifles.
 A strange thing about this incident was that my informant recognized the German corporal as late head waiter of the - Inn, Clapham Junction.
 An English captain, belonging to the - regiment has just told me how he was rescued from the middle of the bat tlefield by French marine near YI0es. The captain was lying in the middle of the field, between two fires. The projec- tiles were flying around in hundreds. Talk ing advantage of slackening in the fire two marines-aged 17 and 21-went to his rescue. On the way the younger boy was cut completely in two, but the other managed to reach the captain. After rendering first aid among flying bullets the marine carried the man back to safety. Two yards from the ambu-
 lance the Frenchman was hit by shrapnel, injurlng his face seriously.

WHEN THE TIRED !. MOTHER GIVES 0U1
What Then?-The Family Suf- fers, the Poor Mothers Suf- fer-Mrs. Becker Meets This Distressing Situation.

Collinsville, Ill.-"I suffered from a nervous breakdown and terrible head aches, and was tired all over, totally worn out and too discouraged to enjoy life, but as I had four in family and sometimes eight or nine boarders, kept on working despite my suffering.
 'tI saw Vinol advertised and decided to try it, and within two weeks l noticed a decided improvement in my condition and now am well woman. Mrs ANA BECKER, Collinsville, Ill.
 There are hundreds of nervous, run- down, overworked women in this vicinity who are hardly able to drag around and who we are sure would be wonderfully benefited by Vinol as Mrs. Becker was.
 The reason Vinol is so successful in building up health and strength in such cases is because it combines the medici- nal tissue building and curative elements of cod flyers together with the blood making, strengthening properties of tonic iron. We ask every weak, ner- vous, rundown man or woman in this vicinity to try bottle of Vinol on our guarantee to return their money if it fails to benefit
