MeCabr. are on their way to Milan to be married In the ca thedral. They are not rich, but they are determined to be married In thin costliest hour of worship In the world, which also la on of the lamest. Neither a religious feeling- nor a desire to be married In a famous place caused tliem to dc'de upon It as the spot for exchanging- vows, says the Chicago Tribune. It was because on the roof of the cathedral Klngery saved Mis Paxton, perhaps, from a death which would have been one of the oddeat deaths on record. For Miss Paxton waa lost In the forest of spire and statues that cover the three acres of roof, lost In a petrified forsst of rare marble. Separated from her friends with whom she waa travel ing, with darkness coming on, the girl, who had waited entranced by the beautiful sun set view, grew alarmed, and. In panic ran up and down stairs and ladders of rock un til, when near the foot of the great spire on which the Image of the Virgin stands, she slipped and fell. Half an hour later, when the last rays of light were causing the rare marble to glow red, the girl recovered her senses to find herself In the arms of a handsome, sun browned young man. The man was Klngery. He, being among the last to descend from the tower of the Virgin, had heard her cries for help, and, running; through the forest of sculpture and the mase of towers on the roof, had found her unconscious at the foot of a flight of stairs down which she had plunged. Klngery, half carrying, half supporting the Injured girl, had managed to reach the stairs that lead down Into the Interior of the vast cathedral, only to discover that they were left alone and that to escape that night was out of the question. The night fell, a perfect Italian night. with the stars hanging like ripe russet ap ples In a field of deepest purple. Below them they could see the lights of the Plaaa del Duomo. To the north, outlined In black against the night rky, rose the Alps, and to the south, stretched miles and miles of plain, dotted with lights of villages and hamlets and farmhouses. The noise of the city, the hum of night life, came up to them like the hum of bees. They were alone, together, surrounded by ghostly Images, aplres of most delicate marble. Aa fellow-countrymen In distress they became friends, and during the night, while she slept wrapped In his coat to shield her from the dew, Klngery watched and, when she awakened, they talked In whispers, overawed by the beauty of their surround ings. When early In the morning they climbed to the upper gallery of the center spire, he helping her because of her sprained ankle, they had an experience which few, if any, ever have enjoyed. The two, hand in hand, as If they had known each other for years, descended and astounded the guide who came to open the roof doors, by their appearance. Instead of upbraiding the guide for locking them upon the roof for the night Klngery pressed money into bis hand silently and descended. Klngery saw her afterwards at Venice, and then in Paris. In fact he changed bis route and before they parted in Paris he had received permission to call on her at her home on the North Side in Chicago. That was three years ago. Klngery, who is the manager of a big mercantile house In Syracuse, lost no time In traveling to Chicago, and after his first visit they were engaged. Lonely Woman Nabbed. The first romance and the first wedding to take place on the Minneapolis & St. Louis railroad has occurred at Florence, la. Not only is It the first wedding, but it marks the marrying off of the only woman In the town of Florence, the culmination of a spirited rivalry for her hand among the pioneer residents of the booming town. There were great doings in honor of the event, the entire town, including the re jected suitors, joining in the celebration Little Cupid carried on his machinations to the accompaniment of rattling dishes and the Incense of ham and eggs, but his arrows were none the less deadly. A few days ago Emma Bheppard was the only woman In Florence. - 6 he still claims this distinction, but now signs herself "Mrs. W. P. Austin." When the town was first started and a horde of men thronged there, living in tents and whatever they could get to shelter them, the cry waa for food. Miss Sheppard saw her opportunity. She was an eastern woman, delicate and with cultured associations. The rough conditions daunted her for a time, but back in Iowa were parents dependent upon her parents who had ex pended their means in giving her an edu cation. iWa result was that the delicate artistry of her cuisine was so attractive that the denizens of the boom town flocked to 'her table with an enthusiasm that would have put to shame the sated diners at expen sive city restaurants. Dodged the Rice Throwers. A young couple married the other day in New Jersey disappeared in very spec tacular fashion from the gaie of the guests who had gone out from New Tork to view the ceremony. As they were preparing to depart two beautiful horses were brought to I ho front of the house. The happy pair appeared In Immaculate riding dress, mounted the horses, which were wedding presents, and rode away at a gait rHpld enough to avoid the usual delay that attends such departures made In a carriage or a motor. In spite of tho general Impreealnn among the guests, the two did not ride far. They changed the horses for a motor a short distance away. Bride with Ominous Vamr, The dreams of wedded bliss '.list have been making happy Mitchell Jasper, an Indian living In Delta county, Michigan, will be rudely disturbed If his fiancee makes good her name. To the county clerk she meekly confided that she Is Miss Mary Kick-a-lIole-ln-the-Sky when Jasper appeared to procure the murriage license. To make matters worse, the name of Jasper's mother-in-law to be is Afrald-of-No-Man, and judging by her countenance and determined manner of speech, this is no misnomer. The date' of the wedding has not been set, and since Jasper has becomo more thoroughly acquainted with his fiancee's mother bis friends say that he has de cided to learn the art of self-defense be fore lie leads the redoubtable young Indian girl to the altar. Wife Cheaper Than Dinner. "Oct married or treat," was the edict of the Mask and V;7 club of Vinetand, N. J., to the club president, Ernest Smith, mem ber of the firm of C. H. Smith 4k Sons, jewelers and optometrists. At the annual meeting of the club last fall Smith pulled the "fatal straw," which meant a wedding for him or a banquet for the members at his expense. Now news comes from Cali fornia that he has escaped through the bonds of matrimony. When Miss Corerta Lush left for the Golden state Smith soon followed, and the wedding took place September 20 in River side, Cal. It Is now up to the club to prepare a banquet for the couple on their return. Belgian Marriage Mart. Two thousand bachelors from all parts I of Belgium, many from France and some from Germany, swept down on the village of Ecaussines-Lalulgn to find brides, says the Brussels correspondent of the London j Express. It woe the fourth yearly marriage mart, as established by the maids of Ecausslnes, and as there are only ninety-seven mar riageable young women in that quaint lit tle place the supply of matrimonial part ners fell deplorably short of the demand. All the same, the proceedings were a great success. The men began to arrive early in the morning, but it was toward noon before tralnloads of them appeared. There were all sorts and conditions of men. One man of 72 had traveled all the way from Lux emburg to find a wife, to whom he prom ised a dowry that would place her beyond want. There were tradesmen, clerks, me chanics, miners, laborers; Indeed, no branch of trade appeared to be unrep resented. Oay banners of welcome, triumphal arches with mottoes of encouragement for prospective husbands, figures of Cupid and hearts pierced by arrows were to be seen everywhere; but the local authority had not accepted the young women's proposal to name the main streets, "place de Flau callles," "Place Conjugale" and "Place de la Concorde." At noon the bachelors were formally welcomed at the gates of the village by the spinster committee. Last year's presi dent and several members of the com mittee are now married aa the result of the festivities twelve months ago and others bad been elected in their place. All marched to the "Grande Place' where there was an open air concert. The bands played nothing but nuptial marches and love songs. At the close an adjeurn-metH-was made to the town ball, where the young women took their places at ta bles, on which stood bowls of pink roses with such mottoes as "Hope On," "Love," "Be Trusting," and "Have Faith." A vacant chair was left - beside each girl and at a given signal the men with matrimonial Intent made a rush to secure the seats. Then coffee and a sweet cake were served, followed by a bonbon tasting of licorice. When this was over the woman president made a speech on "The Art of Pleasing Man," which was wildly ap plauded. Dancing In the open air ended the program of the festivities. Hundreds of letters, many of them very amusing, were received this year from in tending husbands. A railway official from Paris anxiously inquired whether In the event of not finding a girl to his taste he could refuse to marry and would be al lowed to leave quietly. Some bachelors from Qilly (France) ex plained that they were young, good look Ink and earning 12 a month' and were anxious to find wives from Ecausslnes, where the girls are renowned for their good looks and quiet domestic life. , Two friends, a butcher and a hairdresser, asked to be recommended to two nloe girls by the president, but so mixed up their qualifications that it seemed as if the butcher shaved his animals with anti septic treatment, and the hairdresser slaughtered his customers humanely.

How many weak, nervous, drowning, 6lnklng men are grasping at straws today to get cured of their aliments (diseases), which are dragging them down to the bottom of the sea of despair and misery t Why not awaken to the realization of the fact today that boasting promises of quick cures, misleading statements and unbusinesslike propositions to the afflicted are but straws that will sink you deeper and deeper Into the sea of despair.

SUCCESS If we could see and treat all men when the first symp toms show themselves there would soon be little need for so-called specialists In chronic diseases, and there would be few men seeking a rejuvenatloiuof their physi cal, mental and vital powers, and there would also be few marked with the stamp of Constitutional Blood Poison, and the sufferers from 8TKICTIRE, VARICO CELE, EMISSIONS, NERVO-SEXUAIi DEI1ILITV, IMPO TENCE, 11ECTAL, KIDNEY and URINARY DISEASES and their complications would be reduced to a minimum. But aa long as men continue to disregard the golden adage, "A stitch in time saves nine," and continue to neglect themselves or to exercise Indifference or poor judgment in consulting the right specialists at the outset, just so long will there be multitudes of chronic sufferers. iou BQouia careiuny avom an uncertain, experimental, dangerous or half-way treatment, for upon the success of the first treatment depends whether you will be promptly restored to health again, with all taint of the poisonous disease removed from your system, or whether it will be allowed to become chronio and subject you to future recurrences of the disease, with the various re sulting complications, etc. TD I in cncfi a v Don't allow disease or weakness to take away all the pleasure of living.

STATE MEDICAL INSTITUTE 1308 FARNAM STREET, BETWEEN 13th AND 14th ST. OMAHA, NEBRASKA N "TUe Fortune Teller, a musics comedy that was popular some seasons ago, one of the come dians remarked that he had a 1oke and that he wanted a comic opera written to put the Joke in. Judging from some of the submerged musical come dies and comic operas that have fluttered a little while and then took wing since tnai day some librettists have achieved the task nf wrltlnir a niece without Hrst having even one Joke. The problem of getting more than one Is serious, ana tne question 01 comedy for the stage, its derivation and history, is one of the most interesting side lights that the stage furnishes. Comedy, of course, is something that makes the people laugh, and In their efTorta to make the people laugh comedians have gone to strange lengths. They have fallen downstairs like Francis Wilson, lumoiea out of airships like Joe Weber and Lw fields, slapped and been slapped In the fact, been belabored with bladders and slapsticks nd generally have adopted almost any ex- say, "you can't get the laughs." There cer tainly is nothing refined or parlor like in the comedy of the Rogers brothers, for In stance, who talk into each other's facea and kick each other in the stomach. Tet the ; Rogers brothers are at the head of their cwn show and are coining money. A comedy line Is nothing In Itself. Its ef fectiveness all depends upon the context and upon the manner of its delivery. There are some parts regarded aa "actor proof that Is, they are supposed to be so good that no actor can fall in them. Closer study of the stage, however, reveals the fact that the number of these actor proof parts is much smaller than Is supposed, and that, after all, the laughs come only to him who can make the lines get them, and that they do not lie In the tines themselves. strangely enough, the sketch which he Is now playing to the best audiences In the country Is the same sketch with which he amused his rough admirers more than twenty years ago. niiiiit that would win a guffaw from the audience. snicker or a When Shake speare told the players to escnew mow tricks, that while they tickled the ears of the groundlings they made the Judicious gTleve, be was not talking to the come dlaos. - Ask any Arst-class comedlsn to give you his opinion of the mental standard of the average audience and he will answer that the average audience loves horseplay better than It loves finesse; that It wants Its ef fects thrown on with a trowel instead of placed on deUcately with a brush, and that the comedian who gets the laugns is tne milii.n whoaa conduct ubon tne stage is not governed by the highest sense of re finement. "It you are toe refined." they, Ko! Much of the comedy that Is heard over the footlights comes from the race track. Much more comes from the bar room. There are In the theatrical business many clever actors- who are bar room or dressing room comedians rather than stage come dians. They are full of invention and the stories they teU tn bar rooms and In their dressing rooms are plenty good enough to go on the stage. Some of the comedy that is seen and hraid on the stage today guee back to the mining camps. Iadville, Unite and Crlpplu Creek In the early days had music halls In which rough and ren-iy vs'lety perform ances were given. Borne of the funniest comedy, that the stage in this country has seen sprang from those unpromising sur roundings. Cheap burlesque houses In Ban Francisco were the green houses in which many good strokes of comedy came into life. June McCrca. one of the funniest comedians in vaudeville, got bis start In a Baa Francisco burlesque house and. Stories told around hotels are softened and twisted Into such shape that they can be used on the stage. The average actor la a great story teller and a good audience for a good story teller. Out of this fact come many of the beet pieces of comedy on the stage. Comedy that Is premeditated, worked out and rehearsed In cold blood not always Is a sure Are hit. For Instance, one of the greatest lines that every waa beard In a Weber and Fields show was an Im promptu by Pete Dalley. It was upon the occasion of IJlllan Russell's first appear ance at the Weber and Fields muslo hall. She appeared on the stage wearing a glit tering tiara. "I am sorry," said Dalley, as soon as the actress came upon the stage, "I am sorry that you are 111." Taken aback. Miss Russell stammered out: "What makes you think I am 111?" "I see," said Dalley, "that you've got a lot of cracked Ice on your head." While that little Jest was unpremeditated, there waa another Dalley "wheexe" that seemed Impromptu, but that was the result of long rehearsal. Dalley used to enter Jus,t after a burst of laughter in the wings. Ilia entrance lines were: "Jolly dogs, these stage hands." It seemed to everybody that he thought up those lines on the spur of the moment. As a matter of fact. Edgar Smith, who wrote the libretto, had them in the first draft of his work. gome of the comedy comes from the old masters. Sheridan has been plundered freely. Bo baa Oliver Cold 8 has Rabelais, and so have ,any ancient masters of wit and humor. The comic papers help some and the almanao has been used. Twisted a little, some of the old time jests keep reappearing in the most modern offerings and the comedians who know that people always will laugh at what they have laughed at before, but that they are chary about laughing- at new things, have no hesitancy in using the old material in the new way. Good Shoes For The Army "Uncle Bam keeps well in mind the say ing, 'A man is not well dressed unless he wears a good pair of shoes,' " suld a gov ernment Inspector, "for he takes care that the army is fitted out with the most com fortable and nattiest of footwear. "To be sure, be does not go in for upper jawed, flaring soles or twisted, ugly toes, but he provides the finest of leather and In sists that the boot for bis soldiers shall be well made. Ills Inspectors look after the shoes at every process In their manu facture and any short cut of leather or negligently placed nails that might result Id corns or sore feet are pointed out with condemning fingers and the boots are thrown aside. "Once In a while the style In army shoes changes and then a biff batch of shoes will be thrown on the market, which merchants eagerly gobble up. The man who buys those shoes will not get a new style army shoe, but he gets the finest shoe on the market for high-grade leather and good workmanship. "The United States army marching shoe of today has a cap and Is a shoe for a man to be proud of. The cap la not only over the toe, but across the heel, and It gives Just that touch of ornamentation which the well-dressed man likes. "Its sole Is only moderately heavy and the leather is the best box calf. It is eight aud a half Inches high. It has five eyelets at the bottom of the lacing, then five hooka, and at the top of the shoe is an other eyelet, a combination of fastenings which has been tried out and found to hu the best for getting the shoe on quickly and for strength. "The garrison shoe Is built on similar liru. only it Is six and a half inches high and has a plain toe. Borne ef them have caps at toe and heel, but for the most part they are plain. "Contrary to popular belief. Uncle Sam does allow Ills soldier boys to wear a low shoe or oxford, although It Is never worn on the march. They are more for undres and are made of dongola kid and are called gymnasium shoes."
