The IRON KING.

''My dear, pray what shall we dor
Once asked my loving wife;
We have no cook, you know, now
To stem the kitchens strife;
This STOPPING and cooking
Over fires large and hot,
Is perplexing and vexing,
Oh! who has ielt It not?
THE Iabors of the kitchen,
Since our negroes went away,
Were both toilsome and irksome,
And still are so to-day;
Can't you tighten and brighten
This load of heavy care,
That distresses, Expresses,
And drives me to despair?"
Said I, "Tll go to FULToN's
And there a stove I'll buy,
No matter what the price is,
An Iron KING Eli try;
Then roasting and toasting,
Will not wear away your life,
Bat a pleasure and treasure
Be to you my angel wife,"
So down to town ] hurried,
Almost as quick as thought,
And there from JOHN A. FUTON,
An Iron KING | bought;
And now broiIing and boiling
Are the sweetest works in life,
No more caring, despairing,
Distresses now my wife.
Farewell, We dirty negroes,
I'm Independent now,
For wife can do the cooking,
With a smile upon her brow;
No whining, no repining,
No angry threatenings ring,
But my meals now, reveal now,
How cheap is IRON KING.
So now if you'd appease
A weary, suffering wife,
Her kitchen trials set at ease,
Secure a stove for life;
It'll warm you and charm you,
Drive discomfort away,
Both your wife then, aud life then,
Prove sweet as flowers of May.
The above are the sentiments Of
at least one hundred men, in thi:
and adjoining, countiessto whom
(and II. s. Lee beforeme) have SOLD
the celebrated Iron King Stoves. |
am contident-and they all agree
with ne that they are the best
Stoves in the world. l remember
the names of a few parties to whom

was decided that other covering

will not be any discrimination
against cotton covered with any

of reasonable strength. However
if the material is very light, then
must be one or two extra

The Monks of chartreuse.

A correspondent gives a doleful &C.
count of a visit which he had just paid
to the monastery of the Grand Chartreuse.
He and two companions were greeted
with damp beds, f~ollowed-so he writes
by maigre soup, timed fish, bread and
eggs and sour wine. After their firing
journey they not unnaturally retired
somewhat early to bed, where it is to be
presumed they enjoyed a first sleep; but
if their expectations were that this sleep
was to be of long duration they We're dis
appointed. Just at midnight the unfor-
tunate travellers were compelled, nolentes
volentes, to get out of their damp sheets
in order to attend the midnight mass, at
which the solitary illumination was the
tiny lamp carried by each monk. The
mos trying part of the whole experience
seems to have been the dreary three
hours performance which followed and
which may be realized by the fact that
every visitor was compelled to listen
from midnight until 8 next morning to a
litany and songs. AS if to crown the
misery of the visit, the next day proved
to be a fast day, when even coffee was
denied to the visitors, who had for re-
past dry bread and a tiny glass of char
treuse.-Vanity Fair.

1t is difficult to imagine anything more
horrible or revolving than the spectacle of
a woman hanging by her teeth to the car
of a balloon until the machine has risen
out of sight. / think it is a disgrace to
our age that, while we legislate for the
protection of life and limb in all kinds OF
industrial ~employment, no check should
be placed on shows the only attraction of
which is the danger to the performer.
The evil will, however, I suppose, always
exist as long as there is free competition
between managers and free competition
between the poor creatures who risk their
lives to earn their living, but that is one
reason, at least, why the law ought to
step in and put a stop to such disgraceful
shows.-London Truth.

The Young Ladies' Journal is an Gle
giant miscellany which I have frequently
observed in the possession of the bar
maid. In a lone house on a moorland I
was once supplied with quite a consider
able file of this production and the
weather being v~iolent) devoutly read it.
The tales were not i'll done; they were
well abreast Of the average tale in a cir
culating library; there vas only one diff
ference, only n thing to remind me 1
was in the land of penny numbers instead
of the parish of three volumes: Disguise
it as the authors pleased (and they showed
ingenuity in doing SOY it was always the
same tale they must relate-the tale of q
poor girl ultimately married to a peer of
the realm or (at the worst) a baronet.
The circumstance is not common in life,
but how familiar to the musings of the
bar maidl The tales were not true to
what men see; they were true to what
the readers dreamed.-Robert L. Steven
