Mr.. Walmsl-y, Treasurer OF the Mary

ior all sorts, of coincidence with the poor

will indulge in no such hackneyed themes
1t will simply say with T%ennyson:
1.-THE year is going-let him go"
The truth is, people will go On and do in
1875 pretty much as they have lone this
year and years before. New resolutions
will he mad. and broken hargain-dri'ins
will still 20 on; politicians will still be
blatant and still try to deceive the people;
people will still fuss over matters un"or,
thv of serious attention; courtshlp ana
marriage will still claim thonsht' cn''ore"
will be born and they will die; and sun
sbins and cloud will enter into the lives
of us all. Smiles and tears. grief ana JOY
