WEDDING BELLS

Sweet pulsing through the air of Spring j
hear the Wedding chimes a ring.
see them pass-the smiIing bride,
Tho laughing lover at her side.
The world, now-dressed in rosy hues,
Stands still to hear the fond adieus;
And, glad in youths gay overflow,
Alone ON happy ~ays they go.
Two Two doves let loose from narrow cotel
Two butterflies that skim aud float,
And idly sip life's royal wine,
And know not love ike thine and mine!
Dear heart, our wedding bells are dumb,
The wedding morning does not come,
Tho patient years between us staud,
We speak NO word, We clasp no hand.
Each doing what he finda to do,
With cheerful zest and purpose true:
sweetet our loves deep hidden pain
Than all the joys that others gain.

The man who cheats the printer
Out Of single cent,
Will never reach the heavenly land
Where old Elijah went.
He viii net gain admittance there,
- BY deyiIs he'll be driven,
- And made to loaf his time away
Outside the walls Of heaven.
Without man to greet him,
Without a pleasant grin,
The happiness that he vii! reap
Will be almighty thin.

He'll have to buck arouud right smart

told of a man who had an iufrmity as well as

up his character for honesty, even while max

and when his back was turned the honest
buyer slipped Goldfish up under his coat tail.
But the garment was too short to cover the
theft, and the merchant perceived it.

this article was great, and large
fortunes were made by those who
had purchased the d exclusive
right to vend it. This, among other
NOR opolies, was set aside BY the Psrlis'

Ancestor OF the stOve-Pipe Hat.

The ancestor from which our present
chimney-pot hat takes most of lite
characteristics is the broad brimmed,
low.crowned hat, with an immense
plume falling down on to the shoulder,
which was worn during the reign OF
Charles II. At the end Of the seven
teenth, and during the eighteenth CEN
fury, this hat was varied by the omis-
sion OF the plume, aud b. giving Of the
brim various cocks" That these
cocks were formerly merely temporary
is shown by H"garth's picture OF Hudi'
bras beating Sdrophel and HE man
Whacum, where there is q hat. the
brim OF which is buuoned up in front
10 the crown with three buttons This
would be hat Of the seventeenth cen :
fury. A forwards. during the eighteenth
century, the brim was bent up in two
or three places, and, notwithstanding
that these coc!ts" became permanent,
vet the hats still retained the marks o
their origin iu the button and strap on
the right side. The cockade, | imag-
Inc, took it's name from its being a
badge worn on one Of the cocks"
The modern cooked hat, apparently
Of such an anomalous shape, proves, on
examrnatio to be merely a hat OF the
shane above referred to; it appears,
further, that the right side was ben,
,,p at an earlier date than the let, Tor
the hat is not symmetrical, and the
cock" on the right side forms straight
crease in the (quondam brim, and that
ON the let is bent rather over the
crown, thus making the right side OF
the hat rather straighter than the left
The hat band here remains in the shape
OF two gold tassels, which are just s'si.
BILE within the two points OF the cooked
hat. ... ..., o.. -r--,, -.
A bishops hat shows the transition
from the three cooked hat to our pres
emit chimney pot; and because sixty
wears ago beaver far was the fashions-
Bile material for hats we must now
needs wear q silken~ imitation, which
could deceive no one into thinking IL
fur. and which is bad to resist the
effects OF weather. Even in Q ladies
bonnet the elements OF brim, crown
and hat band may be traced.-Georgt
H. Dr,oin, in Popular Science Monthly
