The Lawyer and the Irisnman.

While number of lawyers and gem
tlemen we're dining at Wiscassett, few
days since, a jolly soul from the Eme-
raid Isle appeared and called for dinner.
The landlord told him he should dine
when the gentlemen were done.
Let him crowd amongus, whispered
a limb of the law, and We will have
some fun with him"
The Irishman took his seat at the la
bic.

How WE GO TO SLEEP-f the phenomena
of sleep were not so common they would be
regarded as among the most marvellous of all
our experiments. In sound sleep all volun-
tary motion is suspended. The muscles re-
lax, beginning with those which move the
body, the large muscles of the legs, then the
muscles which keep the head erect, then
those which support the jaw, and last Of all
those which keep the trunk in an upright po-
sition. Of the senses, that of sight is the
first one to surrender. The muscles which
draw up the upper eyelids loose their power,
and the eyes close, but the retina looses its
sepsitivepess to the light even when the lids
remain open. The sense of taste disappears
next; then the sense of smell, and that of
hearing, and last Of all, the sense of touch,
which disappears only in the most profound
slumber. When person is to be reused
from slumber, touch is the first sense to re-
spond, then hearing, then smell, then taste
as the last, the sluggard of all the senses.
Sound sleep, and plenty of it, is indespensa-
bic to health. 1t is the great restorer of the
waste which takes place during our waking
and our working hours, and is indispensable
to long and happy life.

THE OLD MANS DREAM,
An old man sat before the fire,

An old man sat before the fire,
On a windy winters night
And dreamed of the time in the ''long ago."
When his life was young and bright.
He dreams that le stands at the altar now,
With the loved one by his side,
And whispers the words of the marriage VOW,
In the ear of his fair young bride.
And now they are wandering happily,
AS they did in the long ago.;
He does not think she has slept for years
Where in Summer the violets grow.
And so it was as he dreamed that night
Cold-handed messenger Death
Came in at the chime of the midnight hour,
And silenced his struggling breath,
And his soul passed in at Heavens gate,
Where his loved ones passed before,
And lo they have met on the Plains OF Peace,
Where sorrow is known no more!
They found him dead when the morning dawned
And they said, " 1t is well he sleeps!
For we know that his name is written down
In the book that the angel keeps"
They bore him forth, and the drifted snow
Was cleared from the frozen plain,
Where, years ago, in her grave robes clad,
His beautiful bride was lain.
And, lo as they followed the narrow bed,
The sunlig' t around it shone;
And they said, ."Tis sign that in peace they rest
Till the trump for the just is blown,

LITTLE THINGs.-The preciousness Of little
things was never more beautifully expressed
than by B. F. Taylor in the following
"Little words are the sweetest to hear; little
charities fly farthest, and stay longest on the
wing; little lakes are the stilest; little hearts
are the fullest, and little farms are the best
TILED. Little books are the most read, and
little songs the most loved And when ma
ture would make anything especially rare and
beautiful, she makes it little-little pears,
little diamonds, little gems, Everybody
calls that little which he loves best on this
earth"

WIFE, MISTRESS, LApY.-Who marries
for love takes wife; who marries for for
tune takes mistress; who marries for posi-
ton takes lady. You are loved by your
wife, regarded by your mistress, tolerated
by your lady. You have a wife for yourself,
mistress for your house and friends, and a
lady for the world and society. Your wife
will agree with you, your mistress rule you,
your lady will manage you. Your wife will
take care of your household, your mistress
of your house, your lady of your appear
ance. If you are sick your wife will nurse
you, your mistress will visit you, your lady
will inquire after your health. You take a
walk with your wife, ride with your mistress,
and go to party with your lady. Your
wife will share your grief, your mistress youl
money, and your lady your debts. If you
are dead your wife will weep, your mistress
lament, and your lady wear mourning
Which will you have?

FRENCH thieves seem possessed of fertile
invention. The other day, says Frencl
paper, lady went into a haberdasher's shop,
Rue Richelieu, and bought pearl gray silk
dress, The shopman had noticed toleraLly
well dressed man standing at the door after
the arrival of the lady, and seemed to watcl
all her movements, Stepping to the cashiers
desk, the lady drew a bank note from her
purse. At that moment the man outside
rushed into the shop, gave the lady box
on the ear, and tore the note out of hei
hands. / had forbidden you to buy that
dress" cried he, =" but watched you and
you shall not have it." With these words
he FASTENED away, the lady tainted, and the
persons employed in the shop, supposng the
intruder to be an offended husband, made nc
remark and let him so. When the lady re-
covered, the proprietor of the establishment
expressed his regret at this violent scene,
and pitied her for being dependent On 50
brutal husband, "Nly husbapd!" cried
the lady, eagerly; "sr, that man is not my
husband; l do not know him, and have
never seen him. The pretened husband
was daring thief.

He DID NOT MARRY This anecdote Of
John Randolph is related by writer in a
Virginia papcr can old man told me that
he lived near the residence of Miss -, to
whom it was said that Mr.. Randolph was
engaged TO be married. On one occasion he
had been at her residence a short time and
had left; and as it was said that the mar
riage would take PLACE shortly, he thought
he would go and inquire of the old lady. She
said Mr.. Randolph had left in great haste,
and told him to go and see where, in his
hurry, lie had cut the rops of his lridle in
stead of untying them. 1t appears that it
was proposed that he should make mar
riage settlement whereupon he said 1t ia
not my purpose to purchase, When desire
to purchase shall go to the cheapest market
i shall! go to Africa. With this remark
he left the house, went to where his horse
was tied, cut the rens and Immediately de-
parted.

The DATE OF THE CRUCIFIxIoN.-Her
kalb, the German savant, in work recently
published, shows that there was a total
eclipse of the moon concomitantly with the
earthquake that occurred when Julius Caesar
was assassinated, on the 18th of March, B..
G. a. lie has also calculated the Jewish
calendar to A. d, Il, and the result of his
researches fully confirms the facts recorded
by the Evangelsts of the wonderful physical
events that accompanied the crucitixion.-
Astronomical calculations prove, without the
shadow of doubt, that on the 14th day of
the Jewish month Nisan (April 6th) there
was a total eclipse of the sun, which was ac-
companied, in all probability, by the earth
quake, "when the vail of the Tempel was
rent from the top to the bottom, and the
earth did quake and tie rock rent" Matt
xxxvii, 51) While St. Luke describes the
eclipse in these words: "And it was the sixth
hour az o'clock, noon), and there was dark
ness over all the land till the ninth hour
(three o'clock p. NJ. and the sun was dark
ened." Luke xxi, A.
This mode of reckoning corresponds per-
fectly with the result of another calculation
our autnoF maQe ny reasoning packWaru
from the great total eclipse of April, 1918,
allowing for the difference between the old
and new styles, which also gives April 6 as
the date of the new moon in the year a. ID.
81. AS the vernal equinox of that year fell
on March 25, and the Jews ate their Easter
Lamb, and celebrated their Fr'ib Pass0h, Or
feast of the Passover, on the following new
moon, it is clear April was identical with
Nisan IA, of the Jewish calendar, which,
moreover, was on Friday, the Parasheree,
Or day of preparation for the Sabbath, and
this agrees with the Hebrew Talmud. Thus,
by the united testimony of astronomy, archie
ology, traditional and Biblical history, there
can be but little doubt that the date Of the
Crucifxion was April 5, A. d. 81.

PROVERBS Here is a valuable bunch Of
proverbs
Borrowed garments seldom fit well,
Haste often trips up its own heels.
Men often blush to hear what they ars
not ashamed to do.
What is not needed is dear at any price.
He Who buys too many superfulties may
be obliged to sell his necessaries.
A fool generally loses bis estate before he
finds his folly.
A man that boards his riches and enjoys
them not, is like all ass that carries gold and
eats thistles.
That man who knows the world will never
be bashful, and that man who knows himself
will never be impudent
Success rides on every hour-grappe it,
and you may win; but without grapple, 1T
will never go with you.
Work is the weapon Of honor, and he who
lacks the weapon will never triumph.
1t was saying of Socrates that every man
had need of a faithful friend and bitter err
emy-the one to advise, TO other to show
his faults.
