ATasJl Te IBeel Jt gala. The following Ittald to be eae of tba most brilliant artlelee ever written by the lamented George D. Prtnttee: But the Bat of nature It inexorable. There It no appeal for relief from the great law wbish dooms us te dint. We flourish aad ltda as the leave of the forest, aad the flower that bloom end wither for a day have ee Italltr hold upon life thaa the mightiest monarch that ever cheek the earth with bit footsteps. Generations or mea wll Appear and disappear at the grass and went. lew multitudes that throng the world to-day will disappear as the footsteps on Me there. Hen teldem think of the great event of death until the shadow fella etrots their ewe path, biding from their eyes the trace of loved ones, whoso loving smiles were the sunlight of their existence. Death It the great antagonist or life, aad the eeld thought of the tomb It the skeleton ol all basts. We do not want te go tbroegb the dtrk valley, although ill passage may lead to Paradise; aad with Charles Lamb, we do net want te lie down In the grave even with prtoort far bed fellow. Statittlct thow that marriage ooaducet to longevity In the male sex. Harried meo live longer, as a rule, thaa eiebelori. Thit rule holds good In many of the civilized eenntrles of the world. The theory, I part for the above fact Is that lo countries where women help by their industry, end economy end 'management te increase the family wealth, the busbsnds are not tebjecl te toe mental teation and strain at are sioglt men wao have 00 tuob aid. Wa tear, however, the statistics for thit country would vary the general rule, for it .would seem that wives consider it their mission merely to spend money. There ere a greet mtay thrifty wives, a great many to whom the pecuniary salvaton of their busbaadt it dne, but at a general rule do not American wives squsnder rather than , economise their husband's earnings! If this be so, wives, thongh not convicted el poisoning their husbands, may be bold responsible for their husband'! lives; the stallstleaabewlog that a frugal wife leogtbeas the lease el a hus bands lire also prevo that a thriftless wlf shortens the husband' life. And there is where the crimes o(murder comes In. Kememeer lee ureal Auction Sale or Books to-night at 7 e'eleck at Skull's old stand near Slmmoa's Drug Store.
