In a wedding writeup in a Nebraska paper appears the following: “It was a delightful affair for all and a relief for the bride s father, who is a poor hard working man. The groom is a tall, handsome fellow and should not be blamed for his brother being in the penitentiary for horse stealing. Miss Katie looked beautiful, wearing a large red hair ribbon In her locks, and the groom has whiskers. Nothing like being definite. It is downright nonsense to indulge the thought that the world is against you. The fellow with such a notion under his hat is paving the way for trouble. The •world is too big and too busy to be especially concerned with any one of us. So don-’t waste time pitying yourself. Fate has not singled you out for hard knocks. You’re get. ting yur share, perhaps: but so is the other fellow. Leadership of the success procession is never attained without a struggle. If you depend on circumstances to push you to the front you will never get there. The struggle is good for you so make yourself good for the struggle.

Cure for Nervous Disease. A Berne doctor has discovered that tea made with melted snow is a cure for nervous disease. The doctor declares that he has cured people with this elixir when all other remedies have failed. ’ He melts the snow over a alow fire, and then boils the water. Horse with Artificial Limb. The veterinary profession is much interested in a surgical operation which has been accomplished by Prof. Udriski, one of the staff of the veterinary school at Bucharest. Having amputated a horse’s limb at the fetlock joint, after several failures he succeeded in fitting a leather boot or artificial limb that enabled the animal to walk about and take exercise. Happiness and Hunger. “My idea of perfect happiness,” said | the seedy philosopher as he made his fourth round trip to the free lunch counter, “is to be in a position to go into the swellest restaurant, put my hand over the price list of the menu and order what my taste dictates, Irrespective of the demurs of a diminished wad.” Some Consolation. Distinguished Surgeon (to widow whose husband has just died from an operation he had performed)—At least, my dear madam, you have the satisfaction of knowing that your husband didn’t die under the knife of a medical bungler.
