ASARATOGA OLD MAID.

She wore a robe of muslin
The night that first we met
Her little feet were housing
Beneath her coattipet;
Her dress had all the ightness,
Her air the stylish tone,
That mark belle at twenty,
With fortune all her own.
A skirt of rustling satin,
When next we met she wore;
The spread of hoops and whalebone
Was greater than before,
And standing near her side were men
Who wooed, but wooed in vain;
She sent them all to Coventry,
And they went-on train.
Yet once again saw that form
No signing swains were there
A Summer rose had faded.
Shut out from sun and air;
l saw her but a moment,
Yet methinks l see her now.
With poodle in her carriage.
And wrinkle on her brow.

How TO CHOOSE A WIFE-"A place

ter. "Select wife, my son, who will
never step over broomstick." I" The son
was obedient to the lesson. "Now,"
said he, pleasantly, on gay May day
to one of his companions, Il appoint
that broomstick to choose me a wife.
The lady who will not step over it shall
have the offer of my hand" They pass
ed from the splendid saloon to the
grove; some stumbled over the broom
stick, and others jumped over it. At
length young lady stopped and put it
in its place. The promise was fulfilled;
she became the wife of an educated aud
wealthy young man, aud he the hus-
band of prudent, industrious and love-
ly wife. He brought fortune to her,
and she knew how to keep one. 1t was
not easy to decide which was under the
greatest obligation; both were rich and

Booth and the Lords Prayer.

In the palmy days of Booth, the faith
er of Edwin Booth, the great tragedian,
together with several friends, was in-
vited to dine by person who was op-
posed to theatres aud theatre golngs-
and yet had curiosity to wish to see
something Of the lion of the day. Dur
ing the evening, some one requested
Booth, as particular favor, to read the
Lords prayer. He expressed his will
lingness to afford the company this
qualification. and all eyes turned ex-
pectanlly toward him Slowly and rev.
erently he arose. All were astonished
at the play of emotions that convuised
his countenance His face became
deathly pale, and his eyes. trembling,
turned upwards, were wet with tears.
The silence could almost be felt; it be-
came absolutely painful before his rich
toned voice from the death hued lips
indescribably sylIabled forth, "Our Fa-
ther Who art 10 Heaven" etc. Every
heart was filled with the pathos and sol
emnity of the occasion. After he had
finished, the silence continued, until a
sudden sob from the corner of the room
broke the spell. The host stepped for
ward with streaming eyes, and seizing
Booth by the hand, said, "Sir, you have
afforded me pleasure for which my
whole future life will feel grateful.

boyhood to the present time, | tn ught
had repeated the Lords prayer, but I
| never heard it before, never"
Booth replied "To read that prayer
as it should be read, has cost ME the Sc
verest study and labor for thirty years,
and l am far from being yet satisfied
with my rendering of that wonderful
production. Hardly one person in ten
thousand comprehends how much beau
ty, tenderness aud grandeur can be con-
densed in space so small and words so
simple. That prayer of itself sufficiently
illustrates the truth of the Bible, and
stamps upon it the seal o: Divinity"
So great an effect had been produced by
the reading, that after a few minutes of
subdued conversation, the company
broke up and retired, for the time, at
least, with full hearts.

fact:
There is rule at Oberlin College

where prayers are not regularly made

the prayer proviso. Not being pray

one who was. At length he found one
