PECULIAR EpITAPHs IN FRANCE, "A writ
er in the Boston Commercial Bmlefia'
speaking of French cemeteries, says; No
inscription can be placed on tombstone
in French cemetery till it has been seen
and approved by the mayor Notwith-
standing this fact some of the epitaphs are
quite as peculiar as could be found in less
careful lands. As, for instance the fol-
lowing from Pere.Lachaise
"Died at the age of eighty-iiye years,
Pierre Tassier, blacksmith. Heaven
counts ode angel more
An epitaph on French tombstone that
made no reference to sDgels would be look
ed upon as just no epitaph at all. But the
author of one epitaph in Ivry has far sur
passed all competitors in this respect.
Having given the age of the deceased and
the time of his death, and enumerated
few of his most prominent virtues, he clos
es with these words:
"He was a little angel here on earth

D, born on the morning of June 2,
1862, died on the afternoon of the same
day. Oh! why couldst thou not have
been born one day later?'
The idea here seems to be that by being
born one day later he might have escaped
the day on which it was fated he should
die, and so might have lived on indefinite
ly
In the same cemetery we read;
''Sacred 10 the memory of my husband,

loud. He is not dead but sleepeth.

which the good lady may have quoted
this line from scripture in country where
there is no divorce save death.

He hal a wife and twelve sons solid,
chunky lads all Of them. and be himself,
though his hair WAS Erizfling, was straight
as apoplar
In the year Of grace no matter what, bis
wife presented him with thirteenth boy

You are as thin as cat in May, poor

you have drawn an unlueky number IN the
lottery Of life; but there is one way to con-
jure evil fortun. away from You and that
is TO give you JUS. and honest man for
godfather That will be easy enough TO
do
But when he sat down to run over the
list OF his friends and neiahbors he found
tha, the task was not such an easy one al.
ter all One man had tried TO swindle
him out OF four feet of land; another had
killed his hens; third had cheated him at
cards on Sunday as they were playing at
the tavern after yespers. SO he rejected
all the hamlet, and then all his acquaint-
ances at Conde and the notables thereof;
yea. even the Justice Of the Peace and the
priest, the former because he had decided
against Jean Philippe in case about a
fence, lthe latter because in the catechism
lie gave the first place in the class to the
burgo- masters son, who, saving your
presence, was not only not so bright as
Jean Philippe's own boy, but was indeed
an ass.
