THE LAbTES' HOME JOURNAL.
Over i,(,' woit, ,. in this
country alone now buy and read
each mouth the Ladies' Home
Journal, an i a study of the January
number, just to hand, shows at
once why the Journal is so popular.
It is in complete touch, with a
woman's best needs, and covers
everything iu her life. No maga
line covers its special field so
thoroughly, and in such a fresh and
capable manner. Mrs. Burton Har
rison, for example, is selected to
write of "Social Life in New York"
than which there could have been
no better choice. "Wine on
Fashionable Tables," whether its
use is increasing or decreasing, is
discussed by such royal entertain
ers as Chauncey M. Depew, ex-I'res-ident
Hayes, Madame Romero, Mrs.
ex-Secretary Whitney, George W.
Childs and others. In the series of
"Unknown Wives of Well-Known
Men" we have the first portrait of
Mrs. John Wanamaker ever printed,
and a skstch, while !Clever
Daughters of Clever Men" presents
Ethel Ingalls, the pretty daughter
of ex-Senator Ingalls. MrB. Henry
Ward Beecher reaches the call of
Plymouth church to her hnsbant!
and .'.heir removal to Brooklyn in
her eeies of pnpera on "Mr. Beecher
as I Knew Him," while the daughter
of Charles Dickens completes her
first story.' A very pretty page of
"Sofa Cushions" ia illustrated and
desreibed; Palmer Cox's funny
little "Brownies" are seen in a ludi
crous sleigh-ride, while Robert J.
Burdette begins his work as a
Journal editor with his new t"-prt-
ment "From a New Inkstand. Dr.
Talmage'a page is excellent this
month; Marin Psrloa's department
is full of good household ideas
Rider Haggard, Canon Farrar, the
, Countess of Aberdeen, Charles
Dickens and a score of famous
Kt'glish celebrities send New Year's
greetings to American women, and
all through the number there is a
sense of originality and brightness
which copes with honest practical
advice and helpfulness. The
Journal is only one dollar per year,
nd is, needless to say, fully worth
it Published by the Cttrti- Pi-
lishiug Company of Philadelphia.

Frank Cornelius, of Purcell, Ind.

whose wife had paralysis in the face
to buy a bottle of Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. To their great suprise
before the bottle had all been used
she was a great deal better. Her
face had been drawn to one side:
but the Pain Balm relieved all
pain and soreness, and the mouth
assumed its natural shape." It is

A capital story is told of a well known
judge who is noted for his fondness for
conveying to jurors in his charges to
them bis own opinions with regard to
the merits of the case. In one case he
had done so with great plainness, bnt to
his amazement the jury remained out
for hours without coming to an agree
ment. The judge inquired of the bailiff
what was the matter, and learned from
hitfl, that one juror was holding out
against the other eleven.
He siit for ths jury tt cscc. asd rtai

intimated how the case ought to be de
cided, said he tindertod the one juror
was standing out airainst tho oth.-r
eleven. lie proT-ded to rebuke the
juror sharply. The obstinate juror vat
a nervous little man, and as on as the
judge was done he riwe and said:
"ily lord, may I say a word"
"Y, sir," said ths indignant judge;
"what have you to say?"
"Well, what I wanted to say is, I sin
the only fellow that's on your side."

Just tiinU of it I One jewelry stot" en
the Bo,-ry claims to U over -tK) wed
ding rin0' a yeat. And yet we hear the
cry that "men are not marrying." If
one out of the many stores that supply
these golden fetters of matrimony can
aispose of such a number within a year,
what must the sales amount to when all
those that are ".pp!'ed by fth firms
are added?
Surely sotuelxAly's getting married.
Down on the Bowery, near Grand
street, there hangs a golden hoop large
enough to marry all the brides on that
tide of town. It is hung alsjve a jew
elry store, and can be seen as well from
the elevated road as from the sidewalk.
It was fruin the window of a down town
twin that I first caught sight of it. A
young country looking couple that sat
near by also noticed the giantlikeeinblem
of wedlock, and I heard the girl whis
per, "Un, W'liiie, there's where we "ot
our ring," But Willie didn't look until
the cur had passed the store; then ho
raised biseyehruwsa little and said, "I
see, ImlUIerently, and turned again to
the paper he had been ieriihi!,g. The
gin oit or vcd devrs it tlic
gold band nprni her ungloved hand.
At the licit station I left tiie train and
viMtl the stora where Willie had
bought the ring. One of the salesmen
said, in answer to a question, "There
isn't as much sentiment in the business
as ine might suprise. Hy the time the
ha; py couple arrive here they have got
lieyond the blushing stage of heart
di-e.v, and they buy tho ring ill the
most matter of fact way. Sometimes
tho una and woman come tf gether, but
usually the gentleman comes alone to
get the ring.
"Do women ever select and pay for
their own wi-d ling rings? So, very
often, although there whs a lady here
lat week who did so. When s couple
come in together the man picks out a
ring ind ask his 'friend' if it will do,
and she invariable answers 'Yes.' Then
he pa s fur it, hui that's si! there is
alsnit it."
"What siz of ring is nsnully re
quired:" I a-ked. "In this part of the
city," replied the practical salesman,
"from six an 1 a quarter to seven are the
usual sizes; but they run smaller up
town on Broadway."
Upon tlie counter he then placed two
trays containing wedding rings. Borne
of them appeared too large for any finger
but that of s giant; yet it happens some
times that these are not large enough for
a would bs purchaser. It is cus'omary
among the Germans f ir both the man
and woman to buy a ring and make a
mutual gift on the wedding day.
The price of a wedding ring on the
Bowery rang-s from eight to twenty
five dollars, the averags price being ten
or fifteen dollars. In style, the old fash
h.ned plain round circle is generally pre
ferred, because it is as comfortable in
the dishpan ss in the drawing room, and
ths sentimental little wife need never
take it off for fear of its being spoiled.
When ssked how long it usually took
to purchase a wedding ring, the sales
man laughed and answered that in his
fourteen years' experience it had never
taken a couple longer than half an hour
to select one, nsually ten minutes. The
woman se.-i.is to think it's best to hurry
in the buying, or her escort's mind may
change on the subject. .
"We have never," said he, "had a ring
that was bonght returned Wanse th
marriage didn't come off. Sometimes a
gentleman orders a ring made that is t
heavy for the slender finger that is to
wear it, and then he brings it Wk snd
we tako off some of the gold. Frequent
ly, too. people brilig us old rings to be
melted and made over, bit this we re
fuse to do."
"Why?" I asV-d. "D-canso we can
not promise to give them back ths same
go! J that they brought U," ) answered.
"Of course we send the article to Is
made over to the Workmen, hut it is
thrown into the same crucible as all the
other gold, and who known after (rat
