The Paris journals have dressed up an old
American joke, which seems to give them great
pleasure, thus;-

The driver, thoughtfuly, Seven francs

THE Figaro has wit who says of a comedian
that "he has but two happy moments in his

in which rival is hssed."
The Gaulois announces that "a young man
about to marry wants to meet man of expert

POLITICAL EQUALITY OF WoMEN.-It is as
great consolation to young woman as it is to
an old politician to have "a good cry"

HISTORY or A HONEYMOON.

From the Diaries the Bride and Bridegroom.
sbe-Monday, London-The most important
entry ] have ever madel The greatest, the
xrandest epoch in my life; at 1890 A. M. was
married Boulonne white tulle. (Vail given
by Aunt Jane) Cried a deal, but so happy!
Dear. darlingest John, and looked so noble in
his blue coat!
He-Monday. Was tied up at 1890. Shocking
dull affair-crying-chu and bad champagne.
Glad stuck out about the settlements.
she-Tuesday. Tenby.-Beautiful morning;
punshine-birds singng-Dear John-happy as
the day is long.
He-Tuesday Came dove here last night.
Bad hotel. bad dinner. Place looks better by
daylight; but should say dullish. Poor Nelly!
not much to say for herself.
She-Wednesday. Dear, darlngest John! so
kind and thoughtful. After breakfast went out
exploring all the ruins; so Interesting, and lean
ing on Johns arm-so nice.
He-Wednesday. Tolerable breakfast. Went
ont with Nelly to see "the ruins" and she quite
walked me off my legs. Awfully stupid things
"ruins" are to be sure Had no idea before
that Nelly weighed so much; took my arm all
the way back.
She-Thursday. In the morning went out
driving with John. After lunch saw some more
rnins.
He-Thursday. Driving. Beastly, sluggish
sort of pony. Ruins again; really can't stand
any more of 'em. Beginning to rain.
She-Friday. Raining heavily. Nothing to
do. Dear John seems 1idgety, poor fellow.
should think this is dull place when it rains.
He-Friday. Raining like the deuce. Dread
fully dull, Nelly hasn't word to say for her
self; and the wine is even worse than the cigars.
She-saturday. Still raining. John is quite
duh, and doesn't seem to talk to one much; it
really seems as if he were getting tired of me
already. What is to be done?
He-Saturday. Can't stand this any longer.
Nelly is quite tiresome sometimes. Suggest
going back to town by so train. She agrees at
once. Hurrah, what an escape!

ODDS AND ENDS.

A LEssoN.-It is stated that man at Mont
real, to play trick on fellow-lodger drank of
good deal of a bottle of whisky which the lat
Ter had strongly impregnated with morphia. He
died in consequence. Let this be warning, not
merely against taking morphia, but against
taking more -than-is good-for-ye.
A JUVENILE DELINQUENT.-It is sad to wit
ness the propensity evinced even by the very
young to break the laws of nleun. and htum.
We saw a little rogue the other day, barely two
years OF age (ah you may stare), who had his
fathers eyes and his mothers nose and chin.

MARY JANE.

A SOLEMN WARNING.
"Vclocipedes are all the rage"
Said Tomkins, II will one engage,
And on it scour the plain.
I'll make the wondering public blink,
And with my grace, rather think,
Astonish Mary Jane !"
He hired the swift velocipede-
lie mounted on his twO-wheeled stccd
To charm his Mary Jane.
Unhappy Tomkins, luekless john
For he no sooner had got on
Than he was off again.
They picked him up, and brushed his knees,
And he recovered by degrees,
Though sorely racked with pain.
He calmly thought the matter DER,
And thought he'd wait bit before
Astounding Mary Jane.
And then he set himself to learn
The way to mount, and run, and turn,
And labored might and main
To master that unruly beast,
Intending, when he'd learnt, to feast
The eyes of Mary Jane.
But days went by-weeks- months-and still
He had a tendency to spill
His struggles were in vain
Meanwhile chap who took no heed
OF q two-wheeled velocipede
Went courting Mary Jane.
He got on quicker with his suit
Than Tomkins with his two-wheeled brute
And did such speed attain,
That on the day our Tomkins strobe
Bicycling to his loves abode
He'd married Mary Jane!
MORAL.
Now, lovers, by this tale take heed
Remember, velocipede
To Cupid is q fool for speed;
For Love the race will gain.
While you are figuring about
On bicycle-great swells no Doubt
A swell may come and cut you out,
And win your Mary Jane.
