She was 21 years old, but did not thiuk 39 any too old for a husbgnd. This letter with two others were picked from the budget and answered. An- other mail came and in it a letter from Miss Richards. Correspond- ence was kept up between these two and photographs exchanged. Three weeks’ correspondence brought the two persons face to face at the Ridgeway house, Philadelphia, und after four hours’ courtship, both be- ing satistied, the twain boarded a ferryboat and went over to Camden and sought the . presence of Rev. Charles Mayhew, who made them man and wife. Going back to Phil adelphia a few purchases were made and the couple came to Bridgeton and stopped all night at the hotel Cumberland. Wilcox took his bride over to Mill- ville yesterday morning and intro- duced her to his mother, who had been kept in ignorance of his doings. His mother on receiving her new daughter in-law intermingled with her joy and welcomed Mrs. Wilcox into her home. Mr. Wilcox lives with his mother in Millville His father, who was the Rev.

The day turn- \ed chilly and he was obliged to fore- | g0 his visit to the fair. Toa friend who remonstrated with him for going away from home thus | unprepared, he said: “I thought it was going to be warm; my wife told | me to take my overcoat, but I would Women have more senee than men anyway.” A frank admission. Woman's good sense is said to come from intuition; may it not be that they are more close observers of littie things. One thing is certain they are apt to strike the nail on the head. in all the ordinary problems of life, more frequently than the lords of creation. “According to Dr. Alice Bennett, who recently read a paper on Bright's the Pennsylvania state medical society, persons subject to billious attacks and sick head- aches, who have crawling sensations like the flowing of water in the head who are ‘tired all the time’ and have unexplained attacks of sudden weak not. disease before ness, may well be suspected of dan- gerous tendencies in the direction of Bright's disease.” The veteran newspaper corres- pondent, Joe Howard, of the New York Press, in noting this statement, suggests: *Pessibly Alice is correct | but why doesn’ | she give some idea of treatment? know a man who has _ been ‘tired a the time’ for ten years. Night be- fore last he took two doses of calo- mel and yesterday he wished he hadn't.” A proper answer is found in the following letter of Mrs. Davis, wife of Rev. Wm. J. Davis, of Basil, O in her diagnosis, | June 21st, 1890: “I do not hesitate to say that I} owe my life to Warner's Safe Cure. I had a constant hemorrhage from | my kidueys for more than five months.

About 130 shoe manufacturers, representing all parts of the coun- try, met yesterday at the Metropoli- tan hotel and decided there must be | an advance the price of shoes. The decision was not reached until after a discussion lasting six hours, when an agreement was reached and in embodied in a series of resolutions | that were unanimously adopted. | The preamble notes an advance in | the price occasioned by the McKin ‘ley bill, which has caused an increase in the cost of manufactured goods. | The resolutions then go on to an- | | hounce that it is necessary, to ad- | | vance prices on all products manu- | | factured by the members of the con | ference. A committe of five persons | | Was appointed to see that the manu- i | factures adhere to the agreement | stated in the resolutions. It was | said that the price of shoes would | go up from 25 to 50 cents a pair, | and moreover the shoe manufactur- | er will hereafter refuse to guarantee | their products, the customers hav- | }ing to bear the loss on defective | shoes.—N. Y. Sun. Olivet, S. D., Oct. 29. —Last night | burglars made a_ hole through the | brick wall of the vault of the Hutch- inson county treasury at this place , and secured entrance. The outer | | doors of the safe which was in the vault had been left open and the in- | ner doors were opened by blowing | } the lock to pieces with powder. In| a small wooden drawer was $327 in | cash and $2,300 in warrants, which | | were taken. In another safe which | the burglars failed to was open | 36.000.

Mckinley and the Wobblers. The republican national commit- -| tee is sending out a wobbling cirenu- lar to republican weeklies to be in- serted in their last issue before the election, contending that the Me- Kinley tariff is a tax paid by foreign- ers and that it does not make goods higher'in the United States. But Mr. McKinley says it does, that its purpose isto keep up high prices and that cheapness is an evil. Here is hie exact language used last week in his speech at Kalamazoo: “Well, now, they say you would have things cheaper if you only had a democratic revenue tariff. Cheap! I never liked the word. ‘Cheap’ and ‘nasty’ go together, [Laughter.] * ° ° This whole system of cheap things isa badge of poverty for cheap merchandise means cheap men and cheap men mean cheap conntry and that is not the kind our fathers builded.
