"Soldiers marching to war are
inspired by the sound of martial

braver hearts and without fear.
The martial strains fire the enthu

sweet striaus of that old, old song,
'Home, Sweet Homo,' have kept ma

reminding, him of the mother who
had always bidden him follow the

About a week or l wo ago we ran
across t he following account of a
poor Missouri editor's mistake and'
have clipped the same from the pa
per to prove to our readers that wo
have yet to hold a candle to the
editor of the Missouri paper for
imrking mistaken. The article roads
til us:
A Missouri editor who was full of
hard cider got a sale hill and a
wedding gloriously mixed and the
following was the published result:
"William Smith, only son of Mr
and Mrs. Josiah Smith, was dis
posed of at public auction at my
farm one mile east of hero to Lucy
Anderson In the presence seventy
or more guests to wit: Two mules,
seventeen head of cattle, fifty hogs
and six horses. Rev. Jackson tied
the nuptial knot, averaging 1,250
pounds on the hoof. The beautiful
homo of the bride was tastefully
decorated with a ditching spade, on
sulky rake, one feed grinder, one
set double harness, nearly now, and
formed Mendelsohns inspiring wed
Just before the ceremony was per
iling march was softly given by one
mileh cow f> years old, one Jersey
cow 1 years old in April, carrying a
bunch of flowers in her hand, look
ing charming in a gown made of
light spring wagons, boxes of apples
rakes of hay and other articles too
numerous to mention. The gown

of corn. The groom is well known
and a greatly popular man, has al
ways stood well among society cir
cle of twelve Berkshire hogs, while
the charming young bride is a tal
ented and accomplished teacher of
a splendid drove of Poland-Chinas
(pedigree if desired.) Among the
beautiful presents were two sets of
knives and eleven spring tooth har
rows, go-cart and a number of oth
er articles too numerous to mention.
The bridal couple left on their hon
eymoon yesterday with Interest at
the rate of 8 per cent from maturi
