The Fatal Kiss.
By b. P. sHILLABAR.

Serena Lowell was one of the prettiest sis
ters that attended the Sunday evening class
meeting of our church, as we call it at the
boarding house, and was an object Of much
admiration from the devout, and those who
were not so hopefully pious among the out
siders. Her amen was the sweetest, and her
singing of the hymn was the divnest that
could be conceived.
And so the summer wore away. Along
towards the fall of the year it was observed
that a young thick-headcd member of the
class. coarse and uncouth, was peculiarly and
aggravatingly sweet upon her-iixug her
cricket for her to knecl upon, finding the
place in her hymn-book, responding when she
did, and going home with her at the end of
the meeting-wheh latter was considered by
our side as being direct interference with
their rights. No one knew where she lived
though she had been seen in the vicinity of
Sumner street, and it was conjectured that
her home was somewhere in that vicinity.
About this time | was in company with
a party of young female friends, one of the
best looking of whom-it was strange how
my young fancy took to good looking females;

ground than that they were good looking |

the farthest way round was the nearest way
home, for she led me through streets that
seemed to double upon each other In most
abarynthine manner Once we thought we
had got lost and went away back, and then
we found that we had been right all the
while, and walked the street again. There

sensible and as kind as her appearance had
indicated. She was charming gifl, with
the most delightful fund of fun, and sparkling
with refined aud brilliant fancics, but she was
only a nursery maid Our acquaintance
grew to a pleasant intimacy-a a brotherly
and sisterly sentiment, such as boys and girls
may indulge in with innocence and delight,

" Good and Better"

A father sat by the chimney post
On a winters day, enjoying roast;
By his side maiden young and fair,
A girl with a wealth of golden hair;
And she leases her father stern and cold,
With question of duty, trite and old:
"Say, father, what shall maiden do
When a man Of merit comes TO WOO?
And, father, what of this pain in my breast?
Married or single--which is the best!"
Then the sire of the maiden young ond fair,
The girl of the wealth of golden hair,
lie answers as ever do fathers cold,
To the questi.n of duty trite and old
"She who weddeth keeps Gods letter;
She who wcds not doeth better"
Then mcelly answered the maiden fair,
The girl with the wealth Of golden hair
II will keep the sense of the Holo Letter,
Content to do WE'LL without doing BETTER"

A laughable circumstance occurred the
other day on a railroad. A young gentle
man was travelling to town. and when he
arrived at Waterford, prim, sedate gentle
man of the older school got into the carriage
As soon as the train had started, without
asking the old boy whether he might or not,
the young one pulled out his cigar, and be-
gan to puff away, on which old Squaretoes
violently demonstrated, and said he should
make regular complaint to the authorities
when he got to town. Nothing daunted, the
youngster continued his cigar till just before
he got to Euston Square, when, jumping out
Of the carriage, he called to policeman and
begged him to take his friend into custody,
as he had been smoking in the carriage con-
trary to his express wishes. While the al
tercation was going on our young friend mix
