As is generally kuown, Embser was united in marriage to a respectable young tors by the score of 0 to 5.

The lady of this town last February, the cere- mony being performed by Rev.

The affair has caused consid- orable talk throughout the town. Emb. ser's second wife was not ia court.
A Waste of Time.
Tbe folly of spending strength and time iu the patchiag up of old thlugs to make them look like uew goods is caus- tically criticised by a correspondent of the Congregationalist iu this manner:
No other popular delusioa bas doae so much harm in the home Ilfe of America as the "packing box cupboard," unless it be the "barrel chair," Scarcely & week passes in which some woman does not rush into print and give minute in- structions bow to convert an empty flour barrel into aa easy chair, with the aid of a little chiutz and some excelsior; or a soap box into a parlor cabinet by the ap- plication of sandpaper and abellac. The amount of time needed for theee traas- actions is never taken into account. Of course the author never did it herself, and no one contradicts her in print, for the women who have tried it under ber direction are too exhausted by sawing and sandpapering to hold the pen.
