How Mendelssohn Won His Wife.

London Society.
This pretty story is told of the found
er of the Mendelssohn family. He was n
humpback, and n young Hamburg
maiden rejected his love suit in conse-
quence. When wishing der adicu she
said: ..Do you really think that mar
riages are made in heaven, as they
sayp" Eyes. indeed" he replied; "and
something especially wonderful hap
pened to me. At the birth of child
proclamation is made in heaven that he
or she shall marry such ana such a
one. When ! was born my future wife
was also named, but Mt the same time
it was said, Alas, she will have n
dreadful hump on her back! oh,
God,' I then said, "a deformed girl will
become embittered, whereas she should
be beautiful, Give me the hump, and
let the maiden be well favored and
agreeable. ," This sophistry had it's
reward; they were married.

which the stock growers expressed themselves
to be In hearty sympathy with the movement to

ed by the stock growers present.
