The Common Law.

Not all the law under which we live
has been passed by legislature, A
large part Of the law originated in the
decisions of judges and has no. other
authority than that so obtained.
How it has grown upmay be illustrat-
ed by an actual case.
Many years ago in England, q man
named Coggs wanted a cask OF wine
moved from one cellar to another.
Al friend named Bernard, o truckman
offered to do the job for nothing, but
by his c~arelessness the cask was brok
en- and the wine leaked out.
Coggs sued Bernard for damages.
Bernard's lawyer contended tAat his
client could not be ma1r NJ Gay 8ny
thing, because he had undertaken the
job az a favor and not for pay. There
was no lawcovering the case, and the
point had neyer been raised beiore
Th6 judge alter careful study, decidea
that Bernard must pay for the Wine,
His reasoning was so xtrong ana
convincing that the { Coggs against
bernard, became q famous case, and
all suits, bothln England and America
in which the same point was at issue
have since been decided In acc9rdance
with the principle then laid downs

SONG OF REST.
EroRENCE TYLEE.

o weary nandsI that, all the day,
Were set to labor hard and long,
Now softly fall the shadows gray,
The bells are rung for even song.
An hour ago the golden sun
SanK slowly down into the west;
Poor weary HanII.your TOLLS done;
IT'S time Tor rest!-'tjs timefor rcst!'
o Q Feet! that many a mile
Have trudged along a stony way,
Al last ye reach the trysti ,stile;
No longer fear to go astray.
The gentle bending, rustling trees
Rock the young birds with the nest,
And softly sings the quiet breeze;
''Tis time for rest!-'tis timefOr rest.'
o weary Eyes! from which the tears
Fell many a time like thunder rain
o weary Heart that through the years
Beat with such bitter, restless pain,
Tonight forget the gloomy strife,
And know what Heaven shall send Ii
best;
Lay down the tangled web of life;
IT'S time Tor rest!-'tis time Tor rest!

IN SCHOOL DAYS.

Still sits the school house by the road,
A ragged beggar summing;
Around it still the sumachs grow,
And blackberry vines are running.
Within, the masters desk is seen,
Deep SCARED by raps official;
The warping floor, the battered seats,
The jack. knife's carved initial:
The charcoal frescoes on its walls;
It's doors worS sill, betraying
The feet that craping slow to school,
Went stormlng out to playing.
Long years ago a winter u
ShOne over it at setting;
Lit up its western window panes,
And low caves icy fretting.
1t touched the tangled golden curls
And brown eyes, full of grieving,
Of one who still her steps delayed
When all the school were leaving.
For near her stood the little boy
Her childish favor singled;
His cap pulled down upon a face
Where pride and shame were mingled
Pushing with restless feet the snow
To right and left, he fingered;
As restlesslv her tiny hands
The blue checked apron fingered
He saw her lit her eyes; he felt
The soft hands light caressing.
And heard the ucmble Of her voice,
As if a fault cOnfossing.
I'm sorry that I speIt the word;

Brown doesn't know how she has low
cred herself in my esteem by marrying
such a d-headed fellow as Glenn Wes-
ton. I wouldn't have believed it other.
But the decd is done; she really has
married MIN; here are her wedding
cards, Janet" aud she tossed them
across TO her friend. "No, indeed. " she
went on, leaning back in her comforta-
bic lawn-chair, my mind is made up,
mark my words, Janet. I never shall
marry a man with red hair" Janet
laughed most provokiugly.
Don't be too sure," she said in a
warning tone, there's no telling what
you may do before you die; as old Miss
Gaylord is always saying, we're born
but we're not buried"
Bessie laughed and then asked seri-
ously, 'But why shouldn't I be sure ?
/ never could marry a man with red
hair, because to begin with, I never
could fall in love with him. Think
how unromantic it would be. In novels

come across any endowed with my pet
adherence, red hair.

sic" said Janet, coolly; ''but l feel it
my duty to tell you that you are maxi

friend stared at her in a mixture Of
surprise and indignation, she continued
calmly TO begin with, you are not in a
novel, so you can hardly expect young
men with auburn ~tresses, and Jet locks
flying to the wind, to be always hang

be the aim Of the impossible romances

unromantic life, like all the rest of us,
until some kind creature with black or
red hair, / don't know which, shall take
