A bachelor editor out West, who had receiv-
ed from the fair hand of bride a piece of ele
CANT wedding cake to dream on, thus gives the
result Of his experience:
We put it under the head Of our pillow, shut
our eyes sweetly as an infant blessed with any
easy conscience, and soon Snored prod igiously.
The God OF dream gently touched us, and pres
emily in fancy we were married. Never was a
little editor 50 happy. 1t was my DEAR dear
est ringing in our cars every moment. 0, that
the dream had broken off here! But no, some
evil genius put it into the head o our ducky to
have pudding for dinner, just to please her lord.
In a hungry dream we sat down to dinner
Well, the pudding moment arrived and huge
slice obScured from sight the plate before us.
"My dear" said we londly, did you make
this"
"Yes love, amt it nice?"
"Glorious-the best bread pudding ever tas-
ted in my life"
Opium pudding. ducky," suggested my wife.

of 'em."
Call that bread pudding?" said my wife,
while her lips slightly curlcd with contempt.
"Certainly my dear--rcckon I've had enough
at the Sherwood House to know bread pudding,
my love by all means"
d" Husband this is certainly too bad plum
pudding is twice as hard to make as bread pud
ding. and IS more expensive, and great dea
better l say this is plum pudding, sir" and
my pretty wite'S brow flushed with excitement
My love, my sweet my dear love- eXclaim
ed we soothingly, "do not get angry. am sure
it's very good, but it is bread pudding"
."You mean, low wretch" fercely re-
piled my wife in higher tone, you know it's
plum pudding. ...
"1hen, maam it's so meanly put togethe,
and so badly burned that the devil wouldn't
know it. tell YOU madam, most distinctly
AMI cmphatically, and will not he contradc
ted. that it is bread puddng-and the very
meaneSt kind at that"

she hurled a glass Of claret in my face
the grlasS itself tapping the claret from my
nose.

! last, and grasping roasted chicken by the left
leg s.
"Plnm pudding rose above the din, as we haG
distinct perception of two plates smashed
across our head.
"Bread puddingn,, we groaned in rage, as the
ch icken LETT our land and fl, ing with swift wing,
acr s. the table, landed IN nadamS bosom
! "Plum pudding resounded the war cry from
the enemy and the gravy :Sh took me where
we had been depo>itiug the first part OF our din
ner, and plate Of bcets landed upon our white
vest. ....
Bread pudding for ever!" shouted we in de
fiancc, dodging the soup turecn, and falling be-
meath its contents,
"Plun putlding!" yelled the amiabie spouse
as noticing onr misfortune she determined tC
keep us down by pulling dishes on us with n,
gentle hand Then followed in rapid succession
the war cries. "Plum pulling"' she shrieket
with every diSth.
"Blead pudding!' in smothcred tones, came
up from the p'lc.-Then it was Plum pudding,
in rapid succession. the last cries growing Zee
ber-tiIl just as can recollcct, it had growr
to a whisper. opium pudding" resounded lkt
thunder, iolowrd bya tremendous crash. rs ou

feet, commenced jumping up and down--when
thank heaven we awoke--and thus saved on
| life. We shall never dream on wedding cak
again."
