 A gentleman living in the northern part of the county has been so unfortunate as to have lost five excellent wives. He lately determ- ined to erect tombstone at the head of each commemorating her virtues, and has only been deterred from so doing by the expense attending the carrying out of the design. Yes terday he came to the city, a happy thought having struck him, and arranged for the tomb stone. The five wives were buried side by side in the same graveyard. This is the hap py thought: The Christian nac1e Of each wife to be on a small stone-Emma, Jane, Mary, Margaret, Eizabeth-a hand, cut on each stone, pointing to a large stone in the center of the lot, and under each hand, "For epitaph see large stone."

ATrade in Loaning Finery.

A new trade has sprung up in Paris.
Furs are the fashionable wear this winter,
and it is now business to hire them out
by the day, or even by the hour. This
industry hourishes principally in the
quarter of Notne Dame de Lorette, which
abounds in "brasseries" where games of
chance may be INDUCED in, and in lend
ing-shops where luckless gamesters can
raise money on their apparel at mo-
ment's notice. ..
1t is 50 common for man Tor woman)
to rush from the brasserie to the nearest
'lending-shop," and there deposit his (or
her) furs as security for a trifing loan,
that the business Of fur-hiring has grown
quite naturally out Of practice. The
pawnbroker always retains possession ol
the pledge for "a hours at least, and
often for weeks at time; and while it Il
in his hands he does not scruple to lend
it out to persons in momentary want ol
fnery and not able toindulge themselves
otherwise. Thus, trading in stock moi
actually his own, he gets double return
for his money-namely, an interest o.
33I per cent, on Che original loan and thu

An Oxford College Story.

An Oxford graduate was showing his
sister over his rooms in college, when
some one knocked at the door. Suppos-
ing that it was one of his friends, and
not wishing to be chafed, he hid her be-
hind the curtains and admitted an elder
ly gentleman, who apologized profusely
for his intrusion and excused himself by
saying that it was many years since he
had been at Oxford, and he could not
leave without paying visit to
his dear old college and the old
rooms he had occupied as stu
dent. "Ahw cried the old gentleman,
looking around, "the same old sofa! yes,
and the same old carpet-everything the
same" Then, walking into the bedroom,
he remarked: "Yes! and the same old
bed! and the same washstand! Yes
everything the same" Presently he
stepped toward the curtains and re-
marked: "Ah! and the same old cur
tains!" Looking around he beheld the
Young lady, and, turning around ht
said: "Ah, you young dog! and the
same old gamel' "But," hastily replied
the Undergraduate, chat young lady il
nv sister," To which the reply came
eyes, know; and the same old story"

That friend of the household had at

The lady was in a state bordering on
