= A PROPER MATE.

When we come to marriage as an ele.
ment of happiness we arrive at what some
consider as the proper object of life's
journey. married and not happy -
lady said to complaining welded sister.
Impossible coach stops there; does not
go any further" In looking at the win
dow of a jeweler the reader may have
seen figure of Cupid with bunch of
wedding. rings, an| as he looked he may
have specialized on the future lot of those
who were to wear them. Were the loving
bonds they typified to be dissolved prema.
turely by death, broken in Court OF law,
or were they to issue in a golden wedding
after fifty years of happy life? The
answer is given to such an inquiry in the
following story: A lady on the eve Of her
saw on table some bunches of wedding
rings. Various persons made their selec.
tions from these lunches. One bunch
represented rings taken by those W no mar
ried from thoughtlessness another, rings
selected by those who married from pride
third, rings chosen by those who married
for Esarey fourth, rings picked out by
those who married from principle and true
affection. Tnen the finger of time ap-
peared on the scene; as he touched
one bunch of rings they were
found only 20 be copper. Another
bunch changed into curling vipers, and it
was only the rings which had been selected
from esteem and affection that stood the
test and proved to be pure gold. At a
edding at which we we're present when
the health of the bride and bridegroom was
proposed, and they were about to start on
the hymeneal tour, the young couple were
compared by speaker to shallop with
gay streamers, impatient to be liberated
from its moorings and sail onwards on the
mystical journey o. life. Examine care.

to take in your boat. Here comes Beauty:
place for her smiling face by all means.
A place for Love? Yes, ard one
of the best. Another, and a
good one, for Health. Make room
too for Thrift and Prudence. Let Culture,
also, that lady with the stately step, be
admitted If she wish. Above all, keep
good place for Sweet Temper, and the best
| in the boat for Pretty and Principle. That
naughty dame, Self.will, with the last word
in her mouth, we cannot admit on any con-
| sideration. We do not object to Dame
Money her parcel is rot large one, aud
it can be added on the voyage. Nor will
we exclude these two good natured ami.

pleasant one. "-[Exchange.

SPELLING REFORM"

English spelling is, more than that of any
other living language, beautiful history,
as is now stands, of the rise and growth of
the language itself. In our apparently
awkward assemblsges of now silent conso-
nants, IN many of our Theoretically useless
double letters, we recognize the delicate
threads by which we can trace hosts of
words back to their origin our spelling is,
IN itself, practical and living treatise on
etymology. To know the meaning of
word thoroughly, one must know its deriva-
ton, its past history. Now, which is the
better, spelling that can be easily mas.
tered by the veriest blockhead, or one
which epitomizes, as it were, the whole
meaning OF word, its history, its subtle
affinities with parent thoughts? Our spell.
ing Is dltficult, you say well, what of
that ? Most good things are. We no
longer pronounce words as they are spelled?
The more shame to US Here lies the real
and most grievous fault in cur language.
We spell right enough for the most
part, but we pronounce badly. The Eng
disappearing race has done its utmost to
bedevil its own language by slip-shod hab-
its of pronunciation. But, because our
spoken tongue has unworthi!y drifted away
from its honorable beginnings, shall our
written language follow it, cut loose from
its fellowship with the other great Ian
guages OF antiquity and modern times, and
so throw away the last trace of its pater-
nifty? The man who first stopped pro-
nouncing the Oh in daughter, and began to
sound the same couple of consonants in
laughter as if they were single I, did
most slovenly, lazy and utterly contempt.
BILE thing. 1t is wholly incomprehensible,
to the present writer at least, how people
can point with admiration at such infantile
barbarisms as the Italian fLoSofa, tdntasma,
and the like. Such spelling is spelling for
ignoramuses and commercial travellers it
is written baby.tal So far from pho
netic spelling of this sort being a
REFORM" it is a devastating into
the vulgarest and cheapest medi-
ocrity. A true "reform" would be to
reinstate worthily chronological spelling
wherever time and carelessness has OBJ.

to put two ms into amount, so that its deri-
walton from dd and mons shall stare read
ers in the face to put two Is in literature,
as the French do, 60 that one may be ab-
solutely cure that the word does not come
from the past participle of Hnere, to be-
smear. It may be said that such etymolo-
gical spelling is of advantage only to cult
waited people, who "know Latin and
Greek" as the phrase goes. Admitted !!
But, in heavens name, who are to govern
language-the educated or the vulgar? Is
a spelling which speaks volumes to the
educated man, which is surprisingly rich
in the most pregnant associations, to be
ousted by system which tells him nothing
whatever, and the only advantage of which
ia that foreigners and stupid pumpkins can
learn it in one year instead OF six Is the
