There are many persons, says an ex-
change, who would do almost anything
rather than introduce persons to each
other. Many are so embarrassed in the
attempt as to suddenly forget the name
OF one or the other party, oftentimes of
both. There are certain rules of eti-
quette in regard to introduction which,
If studied, would lessen in great de-
gree the embarrassment consequent
upon the performance Of the ceremony.
TO Introduce persons who are unknown
to each other, is to undertake serious
responsibility, and always involves the
Endorsement to each of the respectable
ity Of the other. This responsibility
should never be undertaken without
first ascertaining whetherit will be ac-
ceptable to both parties .tol become ac-
quainted. Always introduce the gem
tleman 10 the lady--never the contrary.
This rule 10 to be observed everywhere,
socially or, otherwise. The chivalry of
etiquette assumes that the lady Is invaril
bly,, the superior by the right Of her sex,
and that the gentleman Is hpnored by
being presented. Where the sex cs are
the same, present the younger to the
elder, the unmarried to the married, or
the inferior In social rank. or talant to
the superior. A gentleman should
never be introduced to q lady without
first asking her permission, -,

1.-THE heart has memories TINT never
die. The rough rubs Of the world can
not obliterate them. Feeble age, trem-
bling on the brink of the grave has them
whenever everything else has fled and
been forgotten. They are memories OF
hone-of early hon,e---the time of gay
dreams, and sunny hodrs, and gcloudless
skies, and visions of bliss and glorious
happiness. The traveller ,clim hing the
mountain of a land not his own, will,
amid all his tolls and all discharges, re-
vert, ever and anon, to the time when,
youth of school boy, he roamed the
fields and hills on his own native home.
The mariner rocked by the storms of
the sea, or resting htsome forei91 port,
will run through the long lapse of years,
when with brother or sister, he frolick-
ed the hours away. Neither change nor
time, neither age or years, neither dis
tance nor disease, neither guilt nor pas
sion, can ever eflace or blot from the
heart these memories of spring time of
life. The very criminal in his cell, or
the culprit with but one more night to
sleep before he ascends the scaffold to
expiate his crime, will have these MEM
ories coming to- him; not, however, as
enemies TO accuse but as ministers to eX-
hort not as demons to scoff, but as an
gels to compassionate and entreat.-
There will be thoughts and dreams, not
of his disgrace and earthly agony, but
they will be thoughts such as prudence
on the verge Of eternity, the freshness
of emotion, of life, and desire, which
existence on earth began.

Under the violets. Z
ny OLIVER WENDELL HoLME.


Her hands are cold; her face is white;
NO more her pulses come and GO;
Her eyes are shut to life and light;
Fold the white vesturc, snow on snow,
And lay her where the violets blow.
But not beneath craven stone iIa Nua
To plead for tears with allen eyes,;
A slender cross of wood alono ~ 81rot
Shall say that here a maiden lies,
In peace, beneath the peaceful skies.
And gray old trees of hugest limb .. al9,o
Shall wheel the evening shadows round,
To make the scorching sunlight dim -
That drink the greenness from the ground
And drop the dead leaves on her mound.
When o'er their boughs the squirrels run,
And through their leaves the robins call,
And ripening I'm the autumn's sun
The acorns and the chcstnuts fall,
Doubt not that she Will heed them alf.,
For here the morning choir shall sing,
Its matin from the branches high,
And every minstrel voice offspring
That thrills beneath the April sky,
Shall greet her with its earlicstsky.
At last the rootlcts OF the trees
Thall find the prison where sire lies;
And bear the buried dust they seize
In leaves and blossoms to the skies;
So may the soul that warmed IL riseI
II my, born Of lkindlier blood,
Should ask: What maiden sleeps below?
Say only this: A tender bud,
That tried to blossom, in the snow,
Lies withered where the violets blow

and sweetness of her nature.

GOOD CORN BREAD AND PUDDING
The sams money will buy two or three

matter of economy to use as much of the
former as can be made palatable. OF the
hundreds of corn bread recipes we have

teaspoonful of cooking soda, one teacup-

four teacupsful of fine corn meal, and
three or four teacupsful of wheat -four
Mix all well together, and bake slowly
for an hour or more. 1t keeps moist
for several days, and Is relished by most
persons. The proportion of flour and
meal may be varied TO suit the liking
The above preparation, cooked in a
steamer, makes good pudding, to be
eaten with cream or milk and sugar, or
