Garlands have continued to consti-
tute an essential part of bridal array
in all countries, though the flowers
selected for this purpose vary. In
Normandy roses are in favor. When a
man has little or no dowry to give his
daughter, it is o saying there that he
will sglve her chaplet of roses. In
Italy the jasmine is the flower select
ed. In Germany the myrtle wreath
prevails, as in the classic days of
Greece and Rome. It is q frequent
practice for a young girl to plant q
myrtle and to watch and tend it until
the time when she requires it's delicate
blossoms for . bridal wreath. Should
she die unmarried, tho same myrtle
tree furnishes her ss zodtenkranz." In
the northern provinces of Germany and
in Scandinavia the bridal crowns are
composed of artificial myrtle, orna-
mentcd in a manner more showy than
tasteful, with additional flowers in gold
and silver. These crowns are often q
foot or more in height. In the evening
the garlands see "objetQntz" danced
of. A lively tune strikes up, and the
bridesmaids and other girls dance
round the bride, who il blinafolded.
Suddenly the music stops, when the
bride places her crown on the head Of
the girl who happens to stand before
her at tho moment. OF course the
maiden thus crowned will be the next
to be married. These bridal wreaths
are kept as cherished mementoes, often
under glass. Should silver wedding
day arrive, after TWENTY-FIVE years Of
married life, silver wreath
is worn. Should tho venerable
couple survive to celebrate the fiftieth
anniversary the matron Is crowned with
q golden garland. German ladies of
high rank have low, however, like the
English, almost universally adopted
the wreath of orange blossoms. The
first idea of wearing this flower in
bridal gar2ands seems to have been de-
rived from the Saraeens. amongst whom
the orange branch, from the sircum-
stance of its bearing fruit and flowers
at the same time, was considered an
emblem Of prosperity. By the Saracens
not only the orange itself but its
symbolic moaning was introduced into
Spain, and thence 10 France. Thus the
fashion Of wearing the blossom trav-
eled northward to ENGLAND.

attompte0 20 enter the burning build
ing again. The intense heat, however,
drove her back and she stood in front
of the crowd with fierce, hopeless
glare in her eyes, while every few
seconds she uttered q horrible CRY, half
groan. half yell, which made even the
most whisky-hardened men shiver and
turn pale.
"a hundred dollars for whoever1l
get that baby - shouted the major.
Nobody stirred. There were plenty
of impecunious men at Spurtip; but
none seemed inclined to earn money in
exactly this manner.
"TwO hundred !" cried the profess
sor.
"Three |" roared the deacon. "It's
a little heather, an it runs a double
resk."
"'Tain't no use tryin'," remarked
Seventeener, ex-member of an eastern
fre.department. "No feller cud live
in that there fire more'n half a mint.
He'd hev to breathe, an then 'twould
be all up with him.
"That you a-yellin' over yer loss.

into the crowd, and patting the unfor-
tunate bar>keeper on the back.
Its 1njin Mary; her baby's in the
loft. OLord, just listen to the poor
devil!" said Jim, as Mary uttered
another cry.
Joe picked up bucket of water, and
poured it over himself, and an instant
after dashed into the flames, and up
the blazing ladder which led to the
lift Mt ~n>rn c,>oho.
no one breathed for a moment. The
deacon closed his eyes and his lips
were seen to move rapidly; and manv
men, though unused to such exercise,
followed the deacon's example.
Suddenly y a mighty rosr broke from
the crowd as Joe Backsey, hatless,
hairless, beardless, and almost black,
emerged from the blazing building
with dirty bundle in his arms. He
had nearly crossed the street, when
suddenly he stopped, screamed, "Catch
it !" threw the child, and dropped face
downwards, on the ground.
The deacon was by his side in an
instant, shouting for water and oil, as
he tenderly turned the insensible form
over.
No Co." said Seventeener, giving
Joe's face a critical glance. "He's
breathed the fire; !; know it by his lips
in else.'
"Joe, joel" cried the deacon, while
big tears fell from his rugged face.
"God hev mercy on yer sou1l"
From beneath the cruelly-singed
eyebrows and lashes, Joe's good-na-
tured eyes opened; his cracked lips
parted and smiled; he tried to speak !;
but suddenly he gasped, shivered and
then the deacon knew by the way
Joe's head hung over the kind old arm
that supported it, that his partner had
drawn his last dividend.
For some moments the crowd stood
in respectful silence then Jim Slipson
invited the crowd to open his few re.
naming bottles, and drink deep to
Joe's good luck in the next world. A
stretcher was then improvised; and
} Joe was carried to tho Office of the
Quickledge Company. There was nc
formal lying -in-state; there was not 8
single flower placed on the rude
catafalque: but men of all degrees
crowded to see what remained Of thu
hero and many of them when the1
, went away showed the first indication
of soul that had ever been seen in thei
faces.
The three partners sat down to sup
! per, and gazed sadly at the empt,
chair. The major finally broke th'

jim BACKSEY'S BURNING.

As the saloon was of unpainted
boards, and upholstered, the flames
made rapid progress so that Jim
Slipson, the proprietor, had barely
time to save two or three armfuls Of
bottles. With these he retired to the
opposite side of the street, where the
spectat tors stood and he was mourn
fully contemplating the effect of ca
lcric upon alcohol, when he suddenly
started, and exclaimed
"Good Godt Injin Mary's in the
loft over the saloon!"
"Who's that Z" asked the deacon,
who had joined the crowd.
"She's-well, not exactly one of
your kind, deac'n," replied Jim. ssShe
come las night with her young 'un, an
wanted to sleep thar till mornin'."
"Some poor, depraved creature,
s'pose," sighed the deacon.

ties, 81 reckon Injins, in general, was

deae'n; an Mary amt no better'n the
rest. But any6ody's too good to be
roasted-leastways in tsis world" con-
tinued Jim Slipson, remembering the
deacon's ground-works of belief, and
treating it with polite Difference.
"She don't intend to risk it nosv, at
any rate" " exclaimed the major, as a
dark figure dashed out of the flames.
and, rolling on the ground to extinguish
its flaming clothing, disclosed the
coppery, dull, heavy. impassive fea.
lures Of Indian Mary.
"Hooray!"s shouted the crowd. Mary
had been seen very often at Spurtip ;
but never before had Spurtip felt itself
called upon to exhibit any respect for
her.
1t was very evident that Mary had
been asleep or drunk, or both; for she
stood stupidity rubbing her eyes tor
several moments.
"Didnt you say she brought child
with her2" asked the Professor of Jim
Slipson.
"Good God, yesl" exclaimed Jim,
seizing Mary BY the shoulder, and
shaking her violently. ssMary, Marv /
