A Marriage Maker.

When Professor Aytoun was making
proposals for marriage to his first wife
daughter of the celebrated Professor
Wilson-the lady reminded him that it
would be necessary to ask the approval Of
her sire.
Certainly said Aytoun 'sbut as l
am little difident in speaking to him on
this subject, you must just 60 and tell
him my proposals YOURSELF
The lady proceeded to the library, and
taking her father afectionately by the
hand, mentioned that Professor Aytoun
had asked her to become his wife. She
added: Shall accept his offer, papa -
He says he is too difident to name the
subject to you himself
''Then," said old Christopher, Il had
better write my reply and pin it to your
back"
He did SO and the lady returned to the
drawing room The anxious sutton read
the answer of his message, which
was in these words, with the authors
compliments.

gallery. What passed there let not the
historian say but let it be known that
during the remainder of the evening, Mr..
Williams and Miss Wallace were rather
loving. 1t was evident that Tom was the
fayoriCe.
You must call and see me-" she said,
as Tom bid her good night at the door,
He did visit her. 1t was generally known
they were soon to be married; in fact the
wedding day was appointed, and Tom was
in ecstacy over his victory.
1t was the evening before the ceremo-
ny was to take place that the lover turned
his steps towards his intended's dwelling.
She was sitting in the parlor conversing
with tall, dark man. With curly hair and
sparkling eyes, whom she introduced as
her cousin, Mr.. Dousinbury
Tom was somewhat annoyed at Mr..
Dousinbury's familiarity with Miss Wal
lace, but she quoted him by saying as he
bid her good night, Don't mind my
cousin; he's singular follow
cousin or no cousin thought Tom,
''Ill stop him after tomorrow.
That night our hero slept but little, and
long before the sun had gained his regal
seat his steps were turned to ward his aft
anccd's dwelling. He rang the bell A
strange servant opened the door, and to
his astonishment, handed him letter and
closed the door. He read:
Dear Tom: Now don't cry; please
don't. [ know it's hard, but the truth is,
| am married woman-a married firt
Mr. Dousinbury is no other than Mr..
Wallace, my husband. Do not weep but

THE RIVER OF TIME.

Oh a wonderful stream is the river of Time,
As it runs through the realms Of tears,
With faultless rhythm and a musical rhyme,
And broad dining sweep and surge sublime,
That bends with the ocean CT years,
How the waters are drifting like fakes Of
snow,
And the summers like buds between,
And the year is the sheaf-so they come and
they go
On the rivers breast, with its Gibbs and flow,
As it glides through the shadow and sheen.
There's musical isle on the river of Time,
Where the softest of airs are playing;
There's cloudless sky and tropical chime,
When the Junes with the roses are staying.
And the name of this isle is the long ago,
And we bury our treasures there;
There are brows of beauty and osoms of
There are trinkets and tresses of hair.
There are fragments Of song that nobody sings,
And part Of an infants prayer
There's lute unswept, and a harp without
strings,
There are broken VOWS and pieces Of rings
And the garment that she used to wear.
There are hands that are waved when the fairy
shore
BY the mirage is lifted in air;
roar
Sweet voices we heard in days gone before,
When the wind down the river is fair.
Oh F.. remembered for eye be that blessed isle,
All the days of our life till night
When the evening comes with its beautiful
smile,
Aud our eyes are closed to slumber awhile,
May our greenwood of soul be in sight

A young blood residing not hal-doz-
en- miles from this place. was the victim
of rather a good joke one Sunday night
recently. He was trying to be particular
ly sweet to young lady, and had paid
her a number of visits at the residence OF
her parents. The old folks had somehow
got an idea into their heads that the chill
dren were too young to "keep company,
and conveyed the desired hint by calling
the girl out Of the room and sending her
to bed at nine o'clock, the lady Of the
house astonishing the young gent by
bringing into the parlor huge piece OF
bread and butter, nicely spread with SUI
gar, which she presented TO him, saying,
in her kindest manner, "There, hubby,
take this and run home to your mother ;
its time little boys were in bed" The
would be gay young beau HASN'T felt as II
he wanted any more sweetness from that
source since.

Reading Aloud i'm the Family.

Books and periodicals should be angels
in every household. They are urns to
bring us tie golden fruit of thought and
experience from other minds and other
lands AS the fruits of the trees of earth's
soil are most enjoyed around the family
board, SO should those that grow upon
mental and moral boughs be gathered
around by the entire household. No
home exercise could be more appropriate
and pleasing than for one member to read
aloud for the benefit of ALL If parents
would introduce this exercise into their
families, they would soon see the levity
and giddiness that make up the converse
ton of too many circles given away to re-
fnement and dignity

Mothers and Daughters.

1t was judicious resolution of father,
as we'll as most pleasing compliment to
his wife, when, on being asked by a friend
what he intended to do with his girls, he
replied, 81 intend to apprentice them to
their mother, that they may learn the art
ofimproving time, and be fitted to be-
come wives, mothers. heads of families,
and useful members of society" Equal
ly just but bitterly painful, was the re-
mark ofthe unhappy husband of a vain,
thong htless, dressy woman. 1T is hard
to say it, but if my girls are to have
chance of growing up good for anything,
they must be sent out of the way of their
mothers example"
