Marriage essentially Is a partnership, tlio closest iKMsthl association known to human ity, and as such necessarily Implies commu nity of Interest bctwoeu man and wife. In all legendary myth woman I snld to hav been created as mate for nuin ; and In Getiesla we are told that the Inrd God, saying "la Is not good for man to b alone," made Eve as "an helpmeet for him." "And they twain shall be one flesh;" the halves of one harmonious whole. For which cause no marriage ran be happy one In which there la not complete aud thorough sympathy between the two who are Joined In the "holy estate." It Is cause for wonder that so ninny marriages turn out well, rather than that some are failures, when one re flects bow often a young girl stands at tlie altar to utter th words which Mud her for better or worse, for gins! 0 evil, with only the most superficial knowledge. If any, of her husband's past;' of his real character; his true dis position. If only women knew men as men know men, and If meu knew women aa women know women, ttiere might be fewer weddings, but marriage would cease to be a lottery, and be a pleasant game lu which all prises and no absolute blanks would be the rule.

The trader's brother, a London physician, happened to be building a bouse, and his brother suggested that the logs would serve for ceiling beams. Acting on the proposal, the doctor gave orders to his workmen accordingly, but their tools were not able to make a Im pression on the bard wood. The doctor ordered fresh tools to be made, and at length succeeded In finding Implements which would cut the timber. Delighted with his discovery he ordered a bureau to be made, and so beautiful was It that It attracted general attention. New York Tribune. K ' TORTURED WITH GRAVEL.

A curious story of loye aud revenge comes to us from the fur east and the fact that It Is the love aud revenge if a Javauese monkey doesn't abate the human Interest In the narrative. Nor should the further fact that th tale comes to. ns via the crew of a tramp steamer abate all cotifldene in Its truth. It appears that the sailors who manned this steamer had collected In Java a number of monkeys for spec ulative purposes and these were con fiued In the bold. Among them were two unusually In telligent simians whq were released during the voyage and permitted the freedom of the ship. Uuhapplly a sudden storm came up and one of the playful creatures was washed over board. The remaining one, who had not seen his comrade's sudden taking off, searched the ship fox hours and Anally betook himself to the rigging, where be remained three days, refus ing food snd avoiding all efforts to cap ture him. No doubt he held the sailors respon sible fur the death of his partner and It would appear that he was formulat ing a scheme for revenge. Anyway, the third night he released all the mon keys In the hold and for two duys the simians made life miserable for the sailors. They bit and scratched and fought and It was only after a number of tbem hud been flung overboard that the balance could be captured and se cured. And In all the forays and fierce charges the revengeful monkey was ;n the van. Whatever may be contended concern ing the reasoning powers of the brute creation, there have been many In stances recorded of their remembrance oX past Injuries. ADd this fact would seem to give the story of monkey ven geance some semblance of truth. Cleveland Plain Dealer. BEWAEE OF raST STEP ON DOWN GRADE. By E. Q. MlnnU k. Tlie "down grade" seems to me to be an apt expression. It means an unsuspected slipping dowu the hill In life. I Imagine that there are few people who hav not had a little ex perience of It.

The "down grade" to unhapplnea In the home Is found by thousands.

He lived In little works snd thoughts. Where little venture grow and plod. And paced and ploughed his little plots. And prayed unto his little God. Hut aa the mighty system grew. His faith grew faint with nmny scars; The Cosmos widened In his view Hut God was lost among his stars. Another boy In lowly days. As he, to little things was horn. Rut gathered lore In woodland ways. And from the glory of the morn. As wider skin broke on his view, God greatened in his growing mind; Each year he dreamed his God anew, And left his older God behind. He saw the boundless scheme dilate, In star and blossom, sky and clod ; And as the universe grew great. He saw In it a greater God. New England Magasine. AB BIJO'OD THE SOURCE OF ALL DISEASE Every part of the body is dependent on the blood for nourishment and Btrength. When this life stream is flowing through the system in a state of purity and richness we are assured of perfect and uninterrupted health;' because pure blood Is nature's safe-guard: against disease. When, however, the body is fed on weak, impure or polluted blood, the system is deprived of its strength, disease germs collect, and the trouble is manifested in various ways. Pustular eruptions, pimples, rashes and the different skin affections Ehow that the blood is in a feverish and diseased condition as a result of too much acid or the presence of some irritating humor. Sores and Ulcers are the result of morbid, unhealthy matter in the blood, and Rheumatism, Ca tarrh, Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison, etc., are all deep-seated blood disorders that will continue to grow worse as long as the poison remains. ' These impurities and poisons find their way into the blood in various ways. ' Often a sluggish, inactive condition of the system, and torpid state of the avenues of bodily waste, leaves the refuse and waste matters to sour and form uric and other acids, which are taken up by the blood and distributed throughout the circulation. Coming in contact with contagious diseases is another cause for the poisoning of the blood ; we also breathe the germs and microbes of Malaria into our lungs, and when these get into the blood in sufficient quantity it becomes a carrier of disease instead of health. Some are so unfortunate as to inherit bad blood, perhaps the dregs of some old constitutional disease of ancestors is handed down to them and they are constantly annoyed and troubled with it. Bad blood is the source of all dis ease, and until this vital fluid is cleansed and purified the body is sure to Buffer in some way. For blood troubles of any character S. S. S. is the best remedy ever discovered. It goes down into the circulation and removes any and all poisons, supplies the healthful properties it needs, and completely ana permanently cure3 blood diseases of every kind. The action of S. S. S. is so thorough that hereditary taints are removed and weak, diseased blood made strong and healthy so that disease cannot remain. It cures Rheumatism, Catarrh, Scrofula, Sores and Ulcers, Skin Diseases, Contagious Blood Poison, etc., and does not leave the slightest trace of the trouble for future outbreaks. The whole volume of blood is renewed and cleansed after a course of S. S. S. It is also nature's greatest tonic, made entirely of roots, herbs and barks, and is absolutely harmless to any part of the system. S. S. S. is for sale at all first class akug stores.
