The Wife's Lesson.

"Where is Meta always the last
always to be waited for" said Mr.. Paul
Gerard, bachelor of some sixty years Of
age. as he stood on the steps OF his own
finely placed mansion, waiting for the
appearance Of said Meta, with no very
placable mieD.
"My dear brother, you are so savagely
puDctual," demonstrated Mrs. Monkton.
"You really cannot expect from young
girl the same exactness as from mature,
retired merchant aud Meta is so devo-
ted to her favorite pursuits she forgeis

"Yes: / heard her singing when she

Mr.. Gerard gravely. "If Meta does

But after awhile the BRIGHTEST and nnat

But after awhile the brightest and most
engaging couples tire Of receptions, thea-
tres, concerts, and the like. The appetite
ior excitement becomes sated. The relish
for artificial enjoyment gets cloyed. The
desire for comfort and quiet takes the
place of the feverish craving for active
pleasures. To sit down at home over an
entertaining book to break the monotouy
OF an evening by pleasant chit-chat,
few touches of music, or an amusing
game to be warned off to bed by vel
vet-footed dreams, stealing over the
senses and filling the fancy with drowsy
delights-these things invariably come in
time. And then comes a yearnine for
something the heart has not, a looking
for what the room does not contain.

painful need Of that sympathy, affection

but a child can supply. There may be

nod and grunt, to the furried occupants
of the room. He walked to the hat.rack
and after depositing his hat went to a so

his umbrella in safe place. The ex-
citement was still going on, when Wade.
after learning the cause of the trouble,
without entering into the furry OF the

umbrella hooked up an uncertain-looking
black bundle. Seeing it was the long
looked-for robe, he held it toward Mr..
Chase with, "Here, Chase-here's yer

the Mexican Congress. He soon rose to
the leadership Of the liberal party, and
was particularly effective in breaking

For The Palladium

Mr.. EDIToR:-Whilst the CITY
Treasury is to be retrenched /" to
procure photographs of its old
chiefs and braves, who have taken
the final departure" 1 suggest
that the pictures of William and
Ruth Cox be also provided for in
the same way, to ornament the
Young History" of men and
things hereabouts. If these pic.
lures cannot be had in any other
way, l would suggest, and l do it
with due reverence, that either of
the figures on the north or the
south side of the pulpit in Grace
M. +. Church, be selected by
competent artist to represent the
parties above suggested. Either
would probably answer the pur-
pose, and serve as a resemblance.
Should my suggestion be adopted
by the Council, I shall feel amplv
repaid for the trouble of inditipe
