"I used to marry a good many folks when I was justice of the peace In Blooming Grove , " said Undo Ira ChrLstUan , the other day. "They generally wanted 10 get spliced on the Fourth of July or Ciriatmas. They'd come ! come in frotn the woodi , the fellow and his girl bith ruhii ? ona load of noop-poles or tan-bark , nnd Bomathnai holding themselves on to a three-foot log that a joke of cxe'J enaking in from a bark peeling. One Fourth of July I took for wedding fees a coouakin , two railroad tips , a pint of apple-jack , three dozen hoop- poles , 25 cents in pennies , two quarts of low-bush huckleberries anda prom ise to vote for me when I was a candi date. But that was an unusually g od Fourth for foes. The couples that I'd hitch , taking the average rnn of 'em , would most like say : " 'Well , now , 'aqniro , we'em much obliged. When you come 'long onr way , 'souire , drop in and we'll flip an extry slapjack. ' "But I never hankered after slap- jackn with ealt pork gravy and tno- lasses , so those fees are coming in yot. 'One day I was sitting In my office , in Moae's Mr-room thinking what I'd best do for a funny pain I had in my stomach , when in walked a big , ( trapping hoop-pole cutter and bark forager from 'way back o1 the Knob. Ho had his daughter with him. The girl's name was M g. I won't say what the last name was , but you all know the pirl ies. Mag was about 19 , bn * . stars alive ! she was blamed no-it six feet high , and I'll bet she could lift a barrel of whisky over a seven rail fence. She was nret'y good looking , for all tilt' ; . 11 ' Bnjy , squire ? ' asked the old man. " ' Nnt particular , ' I said. " 'Wall , squire. I s'pose you know ihit Jerry Elwme'a" got the best groun'-hpg dog they is in the hull Knnb kentry , don't you ? ' "I never heard of Jerry El wine or his grcun'-hojjdo" , ' said I partly mad on account of the pa5n in mystomach and plagued sight madder because Mag had pot down on a strar hat of mine that I wouldn't have taken a dollar note for. ' " . What ? ' never heard of that dog , 'aqufrei' said Mag. 'Novar heard o * ole Tobe ?

' ' "Ef Jerry Elwine sells that air -dog , ' said Mag , Til rattle the teeth cut'n him ; I don't care ef we beagoin' to git spliced 1' "I began to think that the old man and his girl had come in to get an order of court on Jery Elwine to ap pear and show cause why be shouldn't Jet Tobe hunt with any person who iranted him , and why a perpetual in junction shouldn't be issued forbid ding him to sell the dog over in Mon roe county. But I was wrong. " 'The fact o' the matter is , 'square , ' continued the father , 'that dog's too goldarncd vallyble to be wasted. Ha kin keep any family that ain't a passel o' gluttono in groun'-hogs from Sep tember to the time they hole np. Some folks think groun'-hogs is too rank to sell well , and I hcered Joe Atkinson s y onct that he'd as lief eat a teller dip BS the bsst part of a groua'-bog. But they ain't nothin' that goes to the spot with onr family as a skunk of that varmint. Is they " 'Dad , yor r.hontln'1 ! replied Mag.

That dog is gDt to be connected with our Hm'ly , an'we've jest come in to see when yon kin come out our way , 'sauiro , an' make the connection. ' " 'You're going to buy the dog , eh 1 and want mo to draw up the deed V I asked , madder than a hornet at all the pilwer about dogs and ground hogs. " N-va-a-w 1' said Mag , laughing about like .a horse might. 'Yerway off , 'squire.

Oorao any day , aquirn. Wo'm all ready. ' " 'That's about the heft of it'squire , ' said Man's father , 'Couldn't yo stand n Icetle liurbin on itl * "They both put a man's drink of aonrbon inside of themselves. I told 'em I'd be out in the course of two or three days. In the latter part of the week I took the buckboard and drove out. It was fifteen miles , over the cussedeat road you over saw I was over six hours on the way. I found he house. It was a clearing of about three acre ? , divided up into a turnip ptch , a cabbage patch , and a patch of potatoes. A man was milking a cow in the barn-yard. On a board by the front door lay the ugliest yaller dee ; I over saw. 'That's Tobe , I s'pose , ' I said to myself. When I stopped my home the dog cot up. I tied the horse to a fence and walked toward the house. Tobe walked to ward me. Ho only had one eye. He slnivrol his teeth and growled. I snapped my fingers , and said : 'Come here , that's a nice feller. ' He gave one spring , and had me by the pants in leas than no time. I yelled. The door opened , and Mag came out. " c Oh , it's you , is it , equire ? Git ont , Tobel He's only playin' , squire. Ain't he the boss ? ' You orto see him shake a groun'-hog. Come in , squire , come in. He ketched one to-day , and , by darn 1 we'll hev it far dinner. Goiiiu in , I'll call Jerry , and we'll git the thing right over , like pullin * a tooth. Git ont , Tobe , you ornary cuss ! ' 'Tobe left and I went in. I had a notion to put a ball in the dog first , thrugh. Blag's mother was peeling 'taters in a tin basin. Slag had been washing , and her blue hickory dress WAS as wet as a dish rag. Her sleeves wtiro rolled up to her shoulders , and h < > r hair was sticking over her head in all directions. " 'Mam ' she said ' ' ' , , 'h'yer's the equiro. Ill call John out in the barn yard , an' we'll fix Tobe in this 'tator pitch as solid as a pine-knot , in loas'n two minitsl Dad ain't here , but odd's ha ditference. " " 'Hold on a jiffy'said the old wo man. I wanter settle suthln' fust. Ye know , 'squire , Jorry'sgot considr'- blo property. ' " 'Has ho ? said I 'I didn't know It1 " La , bless ye 1 yes ; hoop-pole up'- long the creek , an" half a cord o' bark in the woods. Then he's got two bushel o' turnips ccznin' from old Grindy , on' a chare in that coon him an1 another feller kotched last Sun day. Besides , he's got a new pair o' 14-shillin' cnwskin boots and a pair o' patent Kentucky jane overhauls. Ye ae'e , 'squire , Jerry's well fixed , an what I want to know is this : Jerry ain't very wholesome. I think he's got the indigestion of the lungs. Anyway , in case he should drop off suddint without a will , I want to know kin his durned ornary brother Lije claim them boots an' overhauls , or will they go with the wst of the ihings to his sorrowin' widder V " 1 set the old lady's fears at rest. The widow would fall heir to the boots and overalls , I said. " 'Then call in Jerry,1 she and , 'and we'll hustle this thing through with bells on. ' "Mag went to the door. ' "Jer-r-e-el Jer-r-e-e ! You Jerry ! ' she called at the iop of her voice. " ' \Vhat-a yer want ? ' came back t from the . ' barn-yard. 'Yer allua a 5 vollin'artor authin. ' ' " ' ' ' f 'The 'squiro'a come , you biijlum- mix ! Come iu an'gic hitched ! " ! " Jerry came into the houseJ grumbling , and as cross ns a bear. " 'Might let a fhllar git his barn cleaned out first , ' he grunted. "He had on a hickory shirt and a pair of overalls. The latter were rolled up nearly to his knees , and his feet were bare. ' "Wall , I guess yer barn'll keep till this h'yer's over , " said the old woman. "The couple stood up and took hold of bunds. I was just about to begin the ceremony when the old woman threw both hands over her head and yelled : c "Dod rat yer ngly picter , Jerry El win ! Ef you ain't gone left the bars to that turnip patch down , and there's that pesky ye rlln' heifer a chawln * np half the winter's biliin't Grit out there and turn her out. , or 111 hiatyefeigher'n GHroy'skitel' "Jerry dropped Mag's hand tnd ran out to attend to the heifer in tne turnip patch. He came back puffing like a porpoise , and the ceremony was resumed and got through with without turther interruption. V You sell Tobe , now,1 said Mag. 'You dare think * ' to o seilin'Tobonow , Jerry , an' I'll make it warm around this plantation. "Jerry went out to the barn. Mag wont bask to her washing. I had no more business there , but I thought I'd hang around for my fee , which I im agined -would ba a tolerable gdod one. By and * by the old man came home from the woods. " 'Well , dad , ' said Mag , 'the jig is up , and Tobe is one of the family , sar- tain. ' ' "Tho old man called me ont in the road. " 'I understand , ' he said , 'that yer 'lowed four shillin' by law for splicin' people. Now , 'squire , that hits mo as being a lectio steep. Ye know I voted foryoumoro'n once , an' I think you orter csll this job throe-and-six. The recreation o' gittin here and back orter be worth more'n the extra six pence , 'squire. ' "I was so mad that I could have crammed my hat down the old man's throat. But I said I'd take the three and-slx. ' " Wall , squire , ' said the bark- pealer , 'I ain't sold nohoop-polea yit this season , bnt I'll be down 'lection \ day or Thanksglvin' , an' hand yon t them figgers. Or say , sqnire , if you i kin use some groun * hog ' "That was about all I cared to hear just then. I rattled my buck-board away from there as fast as I could. I met Tobe about half a mile down the road , slouching along the edge of the woods. I heard afterward they never saw him again , and that Mag charged Jerry with selling him on the sly , and went to Milford to see if that wasn't ground for a divorce. But they never charged mo with shooting the dog and throwing it in the woods , as some folks have said they did. " HONEY FOR THE LADIES. Bonnet strings are immensely wide.
