For girls to look like lilies white,

Their weary souls possessed.
To-day tho timos are altered,
And pretty Kate and Nell

They climb the mountain side,
And with oars that feather lightly
Along the rivers glide.
II they've not been to college,
They are going BY and by.
To shake the tree of knowledge,
Though its bnnches reach the sky,
For all their Greek and Latin,
And porting over books,
With faces smooth as satin,
They'll keep their dainty looks.
Do you want a happy comrade,
In study or in fun?

Mid the girls of ninety-One,
She'll keep that bright head Stead2
Unframed by any whirl.
And not q lad viii love her less
Because she is a girl.

There never before was a more COM
plotely surprised couple than were Mr.. and
Mrs. Geisr, of 523 Broadway, on Wednesday
evening. The clock had already struck ten
and the entire household was wrapped In
slumber, from which they we're uncers-
monioualy aroused by the sound of music
at the window Of their sleeping apartment.
The friends of this worthy couple remem-
bercd il WINS tho fifth anniversary Of their
wedding and they wanted to make sure
they would remember that dayof all others
for years to come, SO, coming together at
the home Of Miss King, on Broadway, they
started from there in a body to surprise
Mr.. and Mrs. Geier. Mr.. Geier, on hearing
tho noise without, leaped from his bed,
Heizsd his coat and started to put his feet
into the sleeves, then having his senses re-
called By his wife he rushed through the
house. exclaiminq: What shall 1 do?"
After a short TINA he succeeded in attiring
him self sufficiently SO that he could open
the door and lot the crowd in. After a
brief period of conversation the couple
were escorted to the Broadway din
ing parlo1, whore a n elegant supper
was served. The BRIDES table was
adorned with a most inviting wedding
cake. deliberately frosted, looking good
enough to tempt the appetite of anyone.
4 All clamorsd for a piece of the BRIDES cake
\ to take homo with them to put under their
\ pillow for the purpose of invoking the
\ spirits to cause pleasant dreams. Mrs.
Geicr was given an immense bread knife
with which to do the cutting of the cake.
Alas, the point Of no knife was made sharp
enough to penetrate a cake whose COM
ponent parts were wood. The bride saw
the game they were playing on her, but not
before all appreciated her effort to cuts sake
made of wood. After the refreshments had
been partaken Of the party returned to the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Geier and the parlors
were cleared for dancing. Those present
were: Mesdames d. l.. Nelson, Schmidt,
Oblander, Gabisch, Opp, Lehman, Opel,
