NOVEL MARRIAGE CEREMONY
The latest novelty in marriage ceremonies is narrated by a report in the London ‘Daily Telegraph’of June 29, from Chattanooga, Tennessee “ Robertson, the rifle shot and rider of bucking broncho horses in Montana Bill’s Wild West Show, was married to Miss Cynthia Henna on Sunday. The couple took their places in the car of a balloon for the marriage ceremony, and when it was concluded the balloon was released. It had only risen 100 ft when the bride became frightened and jumped out. Fortunately, sbe fell into the Tennessee River, otherwise she might have been killed outright; as it was she was nearly drowned. Robsrtsou remained in the car of the balloon, which ascended to a height of about I,oooft, and then gradually descended. When the bride-* was sufficiently recovered and the bridegroom had been rescued from his perilous position, and they were once more together, Mr and Mrs Robertson held their wedding reception.”

Mr Charles Juuor, Australasian Press Association, Melbourne, Victoria, who writes on May 16, 1896: —“ Some six months ago I was seriously alarmed over the condition of my legs, one of them having become afflicted with varicose veins, the other showing similar developments. My work (newspaper correspondence) being of a sedentary nature, I was recommended exercise, cold water bandages, elastic, electricity, and fifty other alleged specifics, bob there was no- change—in fact, I became worse. On- a previous occasion I had tried Clements’ Tonic with surprisingly satisfactory results for insomania, so I decided to place my faith in it again. To my exceeding delight I found the dangerous and unsightly veins disappearing after the first few bottles. I persisted with it, and am nowin the very best of health, mentally and bodily. I owe this present condition to Clements’ Tonio only, and will be glad if you will add my testimony to your already long. list.—Yours faithfully,- Charles Junob, Australasian Press Association, Melbourne, Victoria.”— Witness: M. Sheahan, J.P.— [Advt]
