from the quiet couples who unostenta-

the stylish and fashionable wedding
with its retinue of bridesmaids and
grOOmsmen, its costly array of rich
presents and its succession of magnili

intrudes itself. 1t is not the "corrcc
thing" to have as many bridesmaid.
as formerly. In some instances a soil

Underground telegraph systems are
becoming SO popular in Europe that
they are laid in many directions, and
one is nearly completed on the long
route between Paris and Marscillcs.
The pipes containing the wires are
buried about five feet deep; and at
distances of a little less than a third of
mile there are cast iron receptaclcs
through which the pipes pass, their
covers giving opportunity for getting
at the cable for repairs. At intervals
of about a hundred yards, also, the
pipes are coupled 50 as to allow easy
access to the wires. America, which
is noted for progress in many matters
of mechanical ingenuity, is behind in
this respect. Unsightly poles, even in
city streets, are its best devices for
telegraphic lines.

A STAR DREAM.

A STAR DREAM.
There was night when you and
Looked up from where we lay,
When we were children, and the sky
Was not so far away.
We looked toward the deep dark blue
Beyond our window bars,
And into all our dreaming drew
The spirit of the stars.
We did not see the world asleep
We were already there!
We did not find the way so steep
To climb that starry stair.
And faint at first and iitfully,
Then sweet and shrill and near,
We heard the eternal harmony
That only angels hear;
And many hue of many gem
We found for you to wear,
And many n shining diadcm
TO bind about your hair;
We saw beneath us faint and far
The little cloudlets strewn,
And become Il wandering star,
And you became my moon.
All! have you found our starry skies?
Where are you all the year?
Oh, moon of many memories
Oh, star of many tears }!

THE home atmosphere generally de-
termines the character of the young
raised under its influence. Where Il
worldly, selfish spirit controls the pa
rents, the children are quite certain to
partake of the same. Where Il cruel,
censorious and domineering spirit pre-
walls, the young arc certain to mani
fest the like. Where a jealous, fault
finding and self-righteous spirit is pre-
dominant with the heads of the family
the other members are quite certain to
become imbued with it. And where
love, pOliteness and tender affection
uniformly govern the parents in their
daily life, the younger members are
quite certain to initiate them.
