And after many heart-wfung sigh,
My love was given duly.

And though { the sunlight dim beside
Her blight eyes irridescence.

In many gilt-edged sonnet.
No sweet1r girl than she on earth,
Had worn shOe-or bonnet.
took her out to ride and walk
And sure rs I'm sinner

went without my dinner.
] hated every man saw
Who CHANGED to come anlgh her,
And vowed if she should smile on him
His fate would be most dire.
And then ut last one happy day,
With many obs the story
Was stammered forth and | was placed
Into q state Of glory.
She said was her "dear gaEelle,'
Her "darlin /, dearest ducky;"
And - kissed her vie ding lips.
thought myself most lucky.
So this went on month or more,
In spite Of ''pa" or mother;
The sun, We said, might fail to rise,
But We would love each other.
Ours was the very strongest love,
>ince loving had been started;
We vowed We never more could part,
And then of cOurse-we parted.
And rs the other day saw
Her, mar ried, fat and greasy;
Laughed and thought when one is young,
To be feol tits easy.

fact in connection with the $50, 900 transaction
OF Lawrence Brainerd, referred to In this pa

note given by the Norwood Lumber Company
for that amount had been discounted by the
Vermont National bank, and at the time men,
toned heretofore the trust company paid the
money and took up the note, thus coming into
possession of it. From this II would appear
that Brainerd didn't get cent Of money out Of
the transaction, as might be inferred from the
previous item in regard to It,"

A Chinaman's Moral Ledger.

The idea of posting ones good and bad
deeds in ledger so as to be able to
strike balance now and again with
view to determining ones chances in
the next world, is one that would be
hardly likely to occur to any one but a
Chinese. In the last numuvT of the Chi
nese Recorder, Mr.. Scarborough, the
author of the interesting work on "Chi-
nese Proverbs" gives US an extract from
the running account kept with the gods
by one Li-Chun Tsung, which we may
safely say is unique in the annals of
bookkeeping o. the debit side we fine!

numbers indicate, of course, so many
