WlSEACRES WERE ALL WRONG
Wife Could Afford to Smile in Latef
Years at Those Who Opposed
Her Marriage.

October %, 1854, there were united
in marriage pretty girl of twenty,
Abigail Smith, daughter of a minis
ter. to John Adams, young lawyer
without a practice, himself the son OF
rather poor farmer. The lady's
friends were not enthusiastic over the
match, as the girls ferefathers were
all of literary or professional caste.
while the young lawyer could boast
of no connection but with the soil.
The parishioners were Outspoken In
their disapproval of the match, it be-
ing based largely on their suspicion OF
lawyers in general.
The fiery old minister-father of Abb
gail promptly took exception to the
remarks, and the very next Sunday
announced his text as For John came
neither eating bread nor dri&kina
wine, and We say he hath devil" The
minister's faith I'm his son-in-law
proved well given, for the unknown
and clientless lawyer became the sec
-ond President of the United States.

take is absolutely pure and contains no
harmful or habit producing drugs.

and excellence is maintained in every

teaspoonful doses.

and overcoming kidney, liver and blad-
der troubles.

And He Didn't See the Joke.

The subway tram was swaying from

hadn't got strap TO hang onto was
