The wedding party was iu -trueied to walk into the parlor ana face the mirror a r the front, where I would wait lor them. But the groom, as he en tered the r-'om, got embarrassed aud com plete'/ lost his head. Bis arms hung stiffly by bis side and the bride bad bold of a little pinch of bis elbow. The poor felloe was dead to the world. He knew be bad to face the mirror, and tbat is about all be did know. Ho started ou a quick walk down the room, his head up, aud be pnshed his face plump against tbe mirror. And there be stood. Tbe bride tried to catch bim but couldn't,the attend ants got all tangled up, aud things were in alameutahle condition. Finally tbe bride got things straightened out and the cere mony began I used to begin the cere mony with asking the groom if any pre contract existed that would preveut tho marriage, but I have dropped that question now. Ou this occasion, however, as tho tug giootn laced tue. his wits anywhere but with bim, I asked, 'Does there exist any pre-contract tbat would prevent this marriage?' and he laitrtiis head back and roared out 'I will.' He had lorgotten everything but the answer to the question uf whetner he would take the vroman to be his wife, and be worked tbat in at the wrong time. I never wanted to langh so much in all my life as I did then, and everybody i the room was inclined the same way.

It is said there was a fight, but I didn't do any of the fighting. While I stood there daring him to knock tbo chip off my oboulder, and pushing my shoulder around to give him a y ood chance, he gave me a left-banded swinger on the noso aud fol lowed it up by back-heeling me. And when I fell, he jumped on mo and mauled me until I was sore. I never kuew what became of the chip. I missed all calcula tions after ho soaked me on the nose. That was my first aud last fijtht. Looking on is good enough for me." The Markets. BUTLER MARKETS.

RUPTURE Cannot always be cured, but a properly fitting Truss will do more tow ard curing you than any ; thing else. A small rupture is more dangerous than ;i lage one but is more readily held in place. Quite a number of ptn-ons who have been fitted by us have been entirely cured, but this is not al ways the case. The sooner we have them visit us After finding they are ruptured the more hope of a complete cure. We make a specialty of Trusses fur both ladies and gentlemen, and give di rections for private measurement for the former. Al! cases consid- ered strictly private. Buying 1 russes by mail from some person who says he can cure you is on a paralel! with the number of cure* there are for consumption. If you have had trouble in being fitted elesewhere let us try what we can do for you. C. IV, BOYD, Pharmacist, Diamond Block, - Butler, Pa. j'HE BUTLF.K 'WNTY NATIONAL BANK, BCTLRR, ,PA.
