The lady who is such a pronounced authority on matrimony, is a brisk, blooming creature of 39 summers. She divorced five husbands; other two died; No. 7; whom the Courts lately released, says she was the sweetest, most fascinating woman before the wedding-quite too impossible for words. After she has had eight you may be pretty sure she'll have eight more."

Her own matrimonial' recipe is as follows: "I woo by flattery of every soit. I have found from a woman of thirty a man can land any amount of it. All she must be careful about is

to make it seem sincere."

Meanwhile the newspapers publish.á por-

trait of the all-embracing bride surrounded by pictures of the eight husbands, and wishing her the happiest of honeymoons" with the courageous Englishmas.

RAFFLES LIGHTHOUSE:

The light has been installed. and the work has been carried out by an expert

AFFAIR EXCHANGE.

Large sums of money are no doubt realized from simple speculation, but the great fortunes are derived from legitimate and honest business where the goods furnished, are worth the price they bring. Certain famous business men have accumulated their millions wholly in this way. Prompt and faithful ig, overy con- tract or engagement they enjoy the confidence of the public and command a class of trade that is refused to unstable or tricky competitors. In the long run it does not pay to cheat or deceive others. Even a child or a dog soon learns to distinguish between real friends and foes in disguise. A humbug may be advertised with a noise like the blowing of a thousand trumpets, but it is sond detected and exposed. The manufacturers of

It aids digestion, drives im- purities from the blood and cures Anemia, Scrofula, Debility, Influenza, Throat and Lung' Troubles, and Wasting Complaints. Dr. Louis W.
