A grand daughter his found a mate and gone off with him. That is all tight. It is according to nature ind there is nothing to eft about when the . young folks have chosen wisely and well. There is no goodtter sight in all nature than.tease a good looking, healthy young man, who is making an honest living standing up at the altar, with a street) good-tempered, affectionate, industrious girl and the parents on both sides approv ing tbe match.

I won’t say what I have done all these fifty-three years of married life, but my wife has made over a thousand little garments with her own hands before ever a sewing machine was brought to our town and she found time to keep me iu plaited bosom shirts be sides. I bought the first machine that came—a Grover & Baker, fct W25. The next, a Wheeler & Wilson, for 5100, and so on down and now we have a Home & Para for $20, which is the best we ever bad.

Mraptala CtmmUUfpnL Nothing is more beautiful then a woman, end the qiost beautiful woman is the cheery, perpetually pleased Woman who •miles constantly sod who looks at you* inquiringly when she meets you on the. Mreet. There is,‘ perhaps, nothing more exquisitely painful end cordially humiliating to a man than to be told by a member of the fairer sex: "I bowed to you on the street two or three times, lately, end you would not •peak to me." Young men do not mind this much and they are seldom chided* for' such churlish delinquency, bat men who rush to. the barbershop fre quently rto be shaved—not be cause the stubble iq more irritat ing than formerly, bat because It u gray, and a gray stubble is a tattletale—feel that their native fallen try has been impeached by the infirmities of advancing years. One ia ten of these men can recognise'• woman on the •beet, or could recognise bis wife, aid tbs of his heart end homeebaagetfaemeauer of drees iag her hair, wear a bit of unusual color or exploit a ribbon or a rose in some unwonted fashion. Tbe result Is that he Is continually la misery, bowing and scraping to Woman whom he doos not know and who do sot know him, sad ignoring the salutations of woman whom he knows and who are Us friends. % It would be a great bleating if ,the woman who tmilea would refrain from doing so at long range and adopt the old revolutionary method of reserv ing hdr fire until she "can see the wnlte of the enemy's eyes."

Parsons who snore hsva no longer any excuse to offer for disturbing the slumbers of those who occupy berths above them in Sleeping can or rooms next to theirs in hotels. John J. Geraghty. who has supplied campaign buttons for nearly every candidate who baa been elected to office in Chicago, has discovered a preventive for ■aoring. His invention is a simple one. The device consists of a tortoise shell mouthpiece, which can be adjusted to at the month of any person. ‘ When the mouthpiece is placed between the teeth and the Ups, Mr. Geraghty declares, it la im possible for anyone who wears it to snore. He says there is no danger that the person who wears the mouthpiece will ■wallow it and that it does not discommode the person in whose mouth it is placed. In addition to its ability to prevent snoring the mouthpiece has other uses. It compel* persons who Have been making speeches or have been ia warm rooms to breathe through their nosea when going into the cold air. * Doctors have told ne,” Mr. Geraghty said, "that my inven tion ia an almost sure preventive for bronchial diseases. They say it is so simple they wonder no one thought of it before now. If they had. hundreds of Uvea would have been saved.” Mr. Oereghty has been of fered $3,000 for his right* in the invention, bet he prefers to manafnetare the mouthpiece himself.
