The following is from the Gladwin
Eecord:—There is a physician in Clare
county who has been practicing for
some years and, as much of his work
is among the poorer classes, he has accumulated many unpaid accounts.
Some of these he long ago gave up as
uncolleetable. When his. wife learned
of this state of affairs, she put on her
thinking cap, and, as a result, she
leased a tract of land, sent word to
all her delinquent debtdrs that they
would be allowed to work out the a-
mount of their delinquent accounts in
lieu of paying cash, and then awaited
developments, She didn't" have to
wait long, for most of them responded
promptly. She sent them to work in
squads during the season, and as a
result had a good harvest of every
thing set out. Her little scheme saved her husband something over $800,
and he is correspondingly proud of her
ingenuity.

Here's one that's going the rounds
of the state press,said to have originally appeared in the Soo Sews: An
editor who died of starvation was being escorted to heaven by an angel
who had been sent out for that purpose. "May I look at the other .place
before we ascend to the eternal happiness?" '-Easily," said the angel. So
they went below and skirmished
around taking in the sights. The
angel lost track of the editor and went
around hades to hunt him. He found
him sitting by a furnace fanning himself and gazing with rapture upon a
lot of people in the fire. There was
a sign on the the furnace which said,
"delinquent subscribers." "Come,"
said the angel, "we must be going." "You go on," said the editor,
"Pm not going. This is heaven \
enough for me." J

• Thursday evening of last- weQk when.
Bev. S. A. Long returned from prayer
meeting, he found a couple anxiously
awaiting his return to the parsonage-
Thepaiir had by previous arrangement;
met in this city to be united in matrimony, The groonij' Jonathan Beemer,
was a young man from Yassar, age ®5
years, and the bride} Mrs. Caroline
Grimmy, age 66 years,- was from near
Marion, The ceremony was duly performed after the most satisfactory ey-
idence was furnished that they had
not run away without their parents5
consent. The happy couple then returned to the Calkins and. next day
took the train for Marion, where the*
bride has a farm and where the couple
willlive, and those who. know them
w^sh them a long* happy life. * The
wedding is all the more romantic from
the fact that they knew each other in
childhood. But each married som^
one else; and after many long years
one became a widower, the other a
widow, with the result that in almost
their second childhood they again met
and were united, "to go the way of aE
fleshj5' -eta.
