Lately, when the body Of George Kirk

looked in at the body lying in the coffin.

"Yes, SIR shortly answered he who

Fidgetting little, the stranger tried

"Hungl All hung himself y %
sNo; he was hung by the Vigilantes

whence Come fhe Roses.

There is an old legend that there were
in the Garden of Eden no roses but
white ones until Eve tasted Of the for
hidden fruit. When the roses saw her
do this, they blushed for shame, from
the faintest damask to burning red; and
ever since there have been all the lively
tints that we see.laA bn0e iQ. {
A different story, however, is told,
which denies there were ever any roses
al all in the world until, on certain
time at Bethlehem, there was a beagtl-
full young girl who was charged with g
crime, and was sentenced to be burned
to death. They led her to field, and
piled fagots around her, and then set
them on fire. But she being innocent,
prayed, while they were burning, that
some wonderful thing might take place
to show that she was innocent. And
this is what happened all the tagotss
which were already on fire were changed
into bushes full of red roses, and those
which had not kindled were turned into
white ones, also full of flowers. And
these says an ancient writer, were
the first rose trees and roses, both red
and white, that man ever saw. And
the country where this was done abounds
with them to this day.

. A Cbanter ON kissing.

The following is clipped from Ken
lucky paper: When lark attempts to
steal kiss from Nantucket girl, she
says, Come, sheer off, or I'll split your
mainsail with typhoon." The Boston
girls hold still until they are well kissed,
when they fare up and say, " | think
you ought to be ashamed" When a
young chap steals kiss from an Ala
bama girl, she says, " / reckon its my
time now, and she gives him box on
the ear that he don't forget in week.
When clever fellow steals kiss from
Louisiana girl, she smiles, bushes
deeply and says nothing. When a man
is smart enough to steal this divine lux
ury from them they are perfectly salts
fed. In Lynn, Massachusetts,, when a
female is saluted with buss, she puts
on her bonnet and shawl, and answereth
thus 81 am astonished at thy assn.
rance, Jedediah; for this indignity |
will sew the up" New York ladies re-
ceive salute with Christian meekness;
they follow the Christian rule-when
smitten on one cheek they turn the
other also. And when Barry girl gets
kissed she very calmly remarks, Hans,
dat ish goot. "
