MANY odd and amusing stories are

pleasing or more to their credit than
one In which Janin, Theodore Burette,

composer, author and critic, figured.
one OF Janin's best friends was an old
aunt, who sent him to school when he
was boy, kept house for him and took
good care of him when he, young
man, was making his reputation, but
not much money, in literature.
1t was perhaps In memory of her that

The rightful owner of the watch, as 1t
happens, lives neighbor to the Jeweler,
and when be went home to supper that
night he called and asked them if they
had sent the watch to the shop for re-
pairs. They said they had not He
asked them if they had lent the watch
to any one and the answer was In the
negative.
They were quite sure the watch was
in the case where they had left it. Al
the request of the jeweler they looked
and to their great surprise the watch
was not there. The jeweler then pro-
duced the property and told OF the boys

Mince Pies and wedding Anniversaries.

Miss Jane Strickland is good enough to
tell us that it was formerly the custom in
England for married people to keep the an
niversaries OF their wedding day, and on
these occasions as many small mince pies
were placed in one dish on the table as
corresponded with the number of years that
the husband and wife had enjoyed conjugal
felicity. In families where olive branches
were numerous this pleasant custom must
have proved the sweetest of boons for the
juveniles and their friends. We have
grown too grand in these days for such
modest mince pie anniversaries, which
have been superseded by silver and some
times by golden weddings.

Leaving aside the evident animus OF
