The humorous will Of Dr.. Dunlop, of
Upper Canada, who died in the last CEN
tury, is worth recording, though there
is spice Of malice in every bequest it
contains. He lett the following be-
quests:
To my eldest sister Joan, my FIVE
acre field, to console her for being mar.
ried to man she is obliged to henpeck.
10 my second sister Sally, the COT
cage that stands beyond the said field
with its garden. because, as no one is
likely to marry her 1t will be large
enough to lodge her.

Thirty Reasons for Drinking.

Some drink because they're hungry,
And some because they're drv;
Some drink to keep them in good health,
And some that they may die.
Some drink because they are too hot,
And some because they are too cold;
Some drink to strengthen them when young
And some when they are old
Some drink to keep them wide awake,
Add some that they may sleep
Some drink because they merry arc,
And some because they weep.
Some drink because they money gain,
And some because of loss;
Some drink when they are pIcased,
And some when they are cross.
Some drink when they are hard at work,
And some when they do play:
Some think it right to drink at night.
While others drink by day.
Some drink for sake of company,
While others drink on the sly;
And many drink, but never think,
About the reason why.
Some drink when they bargain make,
Some when money they pay;
But when they buy and when they sell,
They drink good health to-day.
some say they drink for pleasure,
And some they drink for pain;
Some say tits good, some very bad,
But never once refrain.
Yet all must own the provcrb true:
"When irons hot to strike it
I've just found out the reason why
All drink because they like it
