man, once like you. The vicissitudes of life
have silvered his hair and changed the round
merry face to the worn visage before you.
Once the heart that beat with aspiration
was crushed by disappointment, as yours.
perhaps, is destined to be. Once that form
atalked promptly through the gay scenes Of
pleasure, the beau ideal Of grace now the
hand of time, that withers the flowers Of
yesterday, has bent that figure and destroy
ed that noble carriage. Once at your age,
he possessed the thousand thoughts that pass
through your brain, now wishing to accom-
plish deeds equal to height in fame; anon
imagining it to a dream that the sooner he
wakened from the better But he has lived
the dream very nearly through the time
to awaken is very near at hand /; his eye
never kindlcs at old deeds Of daring, and
the hand takes firmer grasp of the staff.
Bow low the head, boy, as you would in
your old age be reverenced.

A Much-Married Widow.

A writer contributes to the columns Of
the Chester (Pennslyvania) Repr5lica,' an
article on Ebony Weler's Widow" from
which we extract the following:
"Another very courtable widow was a
young lady of Washington, Pennsylvania.
She became engaged to young man named
Robert --, in 1886 Her father, how
ever, objected to this match with one of his
clerks, and when the young girl received q
tempting proposal from wealthy sutton the
parental influence soon affected marriage
despite the previous engagement In less
than three months her husband was killed
by kick from horse. Robert was Sec
ond time sutton, but delayed the important
question until fifteen months had elapsed,
when to his horror, she informed him that
she was engaged. In three months thereaf-
ter she was married. Two years elapsed,
when the married couple removed to SYRIA
cuse, New York, where, among the victims
of the cholera, when the pestilence swept
that city, was the second. Robert again
sought her hand, and when year passed

received an invitation to her wedding. Her
late husbands business was found in such
state that to avoid immense losses she mar
ried the surviving partner. Shortly after
she removed with her third husband to De-
troit, Michigan. A few years elapsed when
herself and husband were on steamer that
was wrecked near Buffalo. The husband
persisted and the wife escaped, solely through
the exertions of friend who was on board.
His gallantry inspired such sentiments in
her breast that she married her brave pre-
server few months after her third widow
hood. The happy pair removed to Pitts
burg, where the husband was engaged in
mercantile business. Thither Robert, still
eheerishing his first love, followed them
One day as he was passing the door Of her

A Tough Story.

A smart yankee was one evening seated
in bar-room Of a country tavern in Canada
whiting with jack knife. There were as
sembled several Englishmen, discussing
various matters connected with the pomp
and circumstance of war. In the course Of
his remarks one Of them stated that the
British government possessed the largest
cannon in the world, and gave the dmen-
sions of one he had seen. The Yankee
would not let such base assertion pass I'M
