Man and<lb /><lb />maiden, their courtship happily<lb /><lb />ended, simply join hands over a<lb /><lb />_ running stream, emblematic of<lb /><lb />: the wish that their future lives<lb /><lb />a eee Se ee<lb /><lb />oe it ey ee ae Ee<lb /><lb />a<lb />§<lb /><lb />shall fiow on in the same channel,<lb />and the thing is done. Among<lb />our other Indian tribes the mar-"<lb />riage cermony is equally simply<lb />and effective.<lb />ee<lb /><lb />There is every indication that<lb />the next election in New York<lb />State will wipe out last years<lb />150,000 Republican majority and<lb />substitute in its place a substan-<lb />tial Democratic vistory. The<lb />present contest between the Re-<lb />publicans and the Democrats in<lb />New York cannot fail to result<lb />advantageously to the Democrats.<lb />oA great change has come over<lb />the Democrats since last fall�<lb />says the New York Times, owhen<lb />the outlook was gloomy and the<lb />prospects for this year were dis-<lb />comraging. Where six months<lb />ago there was left nothing but<lb />the divided, defeated and dia-<lb />couraged party there is now a<lb />substantially united and hopefal<lb />body, seeking to . perfect its or-<lb />ganization and making a strong<lb />effort to win victory that shall be<lb />deserved.�<lb /><lb />ree<lb />Hot Weather Don'ts.<lb /><lb />Don't worry about the weather.<lb />Don't walk on the sunny side<lb /><lb />. of the street.<lb /><lb />DonTt work unless you have to,<lb /><lb />4 and then work slowly.<lb /><lb />Don't fail to carry an umbrella<lb />if you are exposed long to the<lb />punTs rays.<lb /><lb />DonTt drink anything to excess.<lb />Ice water is about as bad as any-"<lb />thing else.<lb />DonTt use a fan.

They stroll along with their<lb />husbands and look at the river, mar-<lb />vel at the statue of liberty and-won-<lb />der whether Governor's island could<lb />resist an invader, all with a delight-<lb />ful freshness that is restful to the<lb />sight of a nervous metropoiitan resi-<lb />dent.<lb /><lb />The policemen on the bridge be-<lb />come wonderfully softened in-sam-<lb />mer, for they have many colloquies<lb />with timid, blushing brides, who be-<lb />lieve the police know everything and<lb /><lb />And the<lb />policemen like the job of telling all<lb />about the points of interest to be<lb />seen from the bridge, and almost<lb />wish that ~~he�T and his bride had<lb />nothing to do save to be astonished<lb />on the Brooklyn bridge and store up<lb />memories to be turned loose on the<lb />community at Wayback or Spring<lb />City.<lb /><lb />One way that brides can be dis-<lb />tinguished from ordinary people is<lb />by their far-away look. They do not<lb />seem to see the people near by. They<lb />seem not to care what interest they<lb />themselves excite. They are simply<lb />ridiculously happy and New York is<lb />only agigantic pleasure ground to<lb />therm.<lb /><lb />The bridegroom? Oh, yes; he is<lb />there, of course, but. he is only an<lb />attendant of the bride and he doesnTt<lb />count for much on the Brooklyn<lb />bridge.<lb /><lb />| Glass Biicks.<lb />Hollow bricks of glass are being<lb /><lb />used in the construction of the walls<lb />of winter gardens and plant houses.<lb /><lb />They are so set that the hollows are<lb />Gilied with rarefied air, which is a<lb /><lb />non-conductor of heat. The bricks<lb />are laid in a cement that unites the<lb />entire mass firmly. It is thought to<lb />be possible to use bricks without<lb /><lb />j; any support, and experiments areT<lb /><lb />being made on roofing with this<lb />glass, which, put-ep in arch shape,<lb />it is hoped, be sufficiently<lb />strong to answer all purposes with-<lb />out the wood or iron frames ordinari-<lb />}| ly used in such buildings. Houses<lb />| of this material are said to be heated<lb />at much less cost than those ~made<lb />The light<lb /><lb />tra windows are not necessary.

The<lb />average profit of seigniorage on the<lb /><lb />coinage of these minor coins for the |<lb /><lb />past few years has been about six<lb />hundred and fifty thousand dollars.<lb /><lb />There is a profit, and a consider-<lb />able one, in the coinage of subsidiary<lb />Silver coin, but owing to the fact<lb />that the United States owns several<lb />mflion ounces of bullion which was<lb />purchased at the prevailing high<lb /><lb />rate of 1890, the profit in that speciés:<lb /><lb />of coinage is not as great as it would<lb />be if the government should go into<lb />the open market to-day and buy<lb />silver at its market value for this<lb />purpose.<lb /><lb />There is a big demand at the<lb />treasury department for bright new<lb />coins of all denominations. Almost<lb />every request that is received from<lb />banks in various sections of the<lb />country for subsidiary coins. ask<lb />that bright new ones be sent.. Every<lb />month the street car companies and<lb />banks of the capital city turn into<lb /><lb />the treasury large quantities of |<lb /><lb />nickels, dimes and quarters, for<lb />which they receive in turn paper<lb />money of large denominations... Of<lb /><lb />course the money thus redeemed is}<lb /><lb />not ~~new� and there is ro demand<lb />for it. The result is that there are<lb />large quantities of such subsidiary<lb />coin in the vaults of the treasury,<lb />and it is impossible to get it oho<lb />circulation.
