It was rumored on our streets the first of the week that one of our prominent young gentlemen had been married on Saturday night to a pretty young lady of Linden, but any truth of the report has been denied.

The “Coontown 400" comic opera, an aggregation of thirty colored people, played to good audiences in Hollin's opera house on Tuesday and Wednesday nights of this week. They put up a most excellent performance for the small price of admission, and all who have seen them pronounce it to be about as good thing of its kind as they ever saw, decidedly the best that has ever struck New Richmond, the wonder is that they are able to give as big a show, with thirty people, band and orchestra, for so small an admission fee. The troupe travels in a special car of their own and wherever they show the car serves a double purpose of their hotel while in town. “Coontown 400" goes to Linden to-day for a one night’s stand; going from there to Monon and thence up into Michigan.

The marriage of Miss Carrie Andrews and David Cloyd took place Monday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock at the parsonage of the West Side (LaFayette) Methodist Church, Rev. George W. Switzer officiating. The principals in the happy event drove from Romney to the city and the announcement of their marriage will be a surprise to many of their friends. The bride is the only daughter of James Andrews, living two miles northwest of Romney, and is a charming and popular young lady. The groom has been employed for some time by Mrs. Lida Brown on her farm three miles west of Romney, and is an industrious and worthy gentleman. Mr. and Mrs. Cloyd will reside for the present at the home of Mrs Brown.— LaFayette Journal.

There are many causes of getting too thin; they all come under these two heads: overwork and under-digestion. Stop over-work, if you can; but, whether you can or not, take Scott’s Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil, to balance yourself with your work. You can’t live on it—true—but, by it, you can. There’s a limit, however; you’ll pay for.it Scott’s Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil is the readiest cure for ‘can’t eat,” unless it comes of your doing no work--you can’t long be well and strong, without somp sort of activity.
