XIow letter May JUi Recalled,
Many times people would' like to
recall a letter; after : it has been
mailed. This can be done, even if
the letter has reached the post office
at its destination. At every post
office tbere are what is called "with
drawal blanks?' 4 On application
they will be fnrnished and when a
deposit is made to cover the ex
pense, the postmaster will telegraph
to the post master at the letter'a des
tination asking that it be promptly
returned. The applicant first signs
tuts agreement : 4lt is hereby agreed
tnat, if the letter is returned to me,
I wil protect you from any and all
claims made against you for eucn
return and will fully indemnify you
for, any Jos--yon may sustain by
reason of such action. And I here
with deposit 4 to cover all ex
penses incurred and will deliver to
jou the envelope of the letter re
turned." In many cases persons
Have made remittances to fraudulent
parties or irresponsible firms, not
teaming their true character until
after the letter had gone, and have
succeeded in recalling them. There
is an instance where a Kansas City
merchant had remitted a dishonest
traveling man a draft for $175 and
by meaus of a withdrawal rescued
the draft just in time. Globe Democrat.

A Popnlar Society Conple Married in
Charlotte.
The Charlotte Observer gi?es the
following account of the marriage
last night, of Mr. Henry JN'eal Pharr,
to Miss Bertie Yates : ; 1
"The ceremony was solemnized at
9 o'clock in the Second Presbyter
lan church, by the pastor, Rey
John W. Stagg, m the presence , of
an assemblage of friends that com
pletely filled the large building.
The only decorations in the church
were the masses of ferns and palms
most tastefully arranged about the
chancel. The doors had been opened
half an hour previous to the time
set for the ceremony, and when 9
o'clock arrived the church was filled
to such an extent that the ushers
had difficulty in keeping a passage
way cleared for the bridal party
Then the lights flashed up, flooding
the scene with brilliancy, and as
Miss Nan Dowd, who presided at
at the organ, began the wedamg
march, the ribbon girls, Misses Ade
laide Oiarkion and Lizzie Faison,
attired in white organdie, walked
down the aisles and took their places
at the altar. lhey were followed
by the bridesmaid, Miss Berta Oa.tes,
who wore a gown of white silk and
carried la France roses. The bride
was dressed in . w bite brocaded moire,
and her veil was caught back with
a spray of pearls and diamonds
She carried bridal ro es in her hands
as she entered the church with her
brother,1 Mr. Will J Yates. The
groom entered with his brother, Mr.
John Pharr, joining the bride at
the altar. Around them were ar
ranged j the ushers, Messrs. Will K
Yates, W H Twitty, James Bell
and David Yates, of Charlotte; Pr.
H'M Stuckey, of JSumter, 8 C, and
M r. George. L Patterson, of Concord.
The groom is a prominent and
popular member of , the Charlotte
bar. -The bride is a daughter of the
late William J Yates, who was edi
tor of the Democrat, and is a great
fayorite in Charlotte -social circles.
Among the many handsome wed
ding gifta was a trup filled with
silverware, from the members of the
Charlotte? bar.J The county com
missioners gave testimony to their
good wishes in a silver tea set.

There j is no joy in this world
fqual to i the happiness of mother
nood. A woman's health is her
dearest poetession. Good looks,
good times, happinespj'Jove ! and its
continuance; depand on her health.
Almost all of the sickness of women
is traceable directfy or indirectly
to some derangement of the organs
distinctly feminine. Troubles of
this kind are often neglected be
cause a very natural and : proper
modesty; keeps women away from
physicians, whose insistence upon
examination and local treatment is
generally as useless as it -is com
mon, fir. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription wil do more for them than
90 doctors in 100. It will do more
than the hundredth doctor can un
less he prescribes it. It is a pre
scription of Dr. R V Pierce, who fori
30 years has been chief consulting
physician of the World's Dispensary
and Invalids' Hotel, at Buffalo.
