He re solved to marry her, and twenty-four hottrii fif dourUhip ended in a visit to a minister on Saturday night, and Masker took his bride home. On Sunday they were the great attraction at clmtch.— 'When lie went hdmd he guv* his brido a present of 81,000 iu addition to the jewel* already bestowed.

Apples for Human Food. With its the value of the apple, as nu ar ticle of food, is far underrated. Beside, lprge smouut of siigisr, mu eilaf?e, and other nutritive matter; apples non tain vegetable acids, aromatic qunKties, etc., whioh act powerfully iu the capnoity of refrigerants, tonics, and antiseptics;and when freely used at the season of mellow ripeues*. they prevent debility, indiges tion, nvert, without doubt, many of ’ill* which flesh is heir to The operator* of Corawall, England, consider ripe apples nearly as nourinhtng as bread-, and fin more so than potatoes. In the year of 1851 —which was a year of much scarcity—ap ples, instead of being converted into cider, were sold to the pour, and the laborers as serted that they ewr.ld ‘stand th#ir Work' on. bakod apples without meat; whereas a potato diet required either meatgor some other Kubstaneial nutriment. The French and Germans use apples extensively, as do the inhabitants of nil European nations. The laborers depend upon t hem as an ar ticle of food, and frequently make a diu ner of slicod npplaa and bread. There is no fruit coofceif in ns many difTerent ways iu our country as apples; nor is there any fruit whoso value, ns an article of nutri ment, is us great and so little appreciated. Water Cure Journal. Buildixq Chahacttcr.— There is a atruoture which everybody is building, young and old, each one for himself. It is called character, hbQ i every act of life is a stone. If day Ivy day we be careful to build our lives witii pure, noble, upright deeds, at the end will stand a fair temple, honored bv (iod and man. But, as one hnk will sink a ship, ami one flaw break u chain, so one mean, dishonorable, un truthful act or word will forever leave its impress and work its mihieoce upon our character. Then let the several deeds unite to form a day, *i.i one by One the days grow into years, and the years, as they slowly pass, will raise at last a beauti ful edifice, enduring forever to our praise. rKKTiMKNT.— Suva the Irish Times, ''Why are the articles La' and - H’ left out iu the advertisements ol operas when play ed in Efigliah ? 'Sminnmbula' and *Tro vatore’ Wn written as if they were proper names. Would not 'The Somnambulist' and ‘The Troubadour’ be the proper des ignations when printed side bv side with ‘The Bohemian Girl,' and ‘The Lily of Killaruer?’ I wish somebody would lie enterprising cuough to get new transla tions made oft: Italian operas. The libretti are the ui—-t absurd,tiling possi ble to conceive— tt>o' much so, indeed, to be laughable.” *'A, Pikkt fob Torn Thoughts. "—lt is a common request; but how mauy pennies it would take to buy some thoughts ! How many blissful dreams would be dissolved could they be purchased and made known; how many hearts that now throb i>eueetul ly would be aching; how many sunshiny faces would lie clouded with gloom ? Ah! it is well our thoughts can not lie bought; wise would this merry bantering questioa sometimes prove the questioner's death blow. And vet there are two sides to ( this as well as to many questions. How ! much moic'than the offered "penny” is the kind thought 1 the eharituhle, *pal- 1 listing, forgiving though i Withhold not that !
