transpired that the bridegroom had
written to the sexton of the church re-

that William Wisher was the name of

Iheard a story the other day that may
be new to most of you. An active young
woman entered a large shop recent
ly and seeking out the silk department
camped there for real pleasant time
The salesman was amiable and glad to
show her the different shades and quail

had not calculated upon the staying
qualities of his caller. For fully one
half hour she compelled him to hop up
and down a ladder, laden with rolls OF
silk, but none coul she find that suited
her. At last he ha, taken down all but
two rolls, and, as he leaned against his
ladder and wiped away the beads of
perspiration, he said "Well, really,
madam, l don't see that we can suit
you. Excuse me for saying it, but you
really don't seem to know what YOU
want.
To which she responded: "Well, 1
don't want to buy anything to-day. 1
was just looking for a couple of friends
and"
Here the exasperated clerk broke in:
Looking for couple of friends? Well,
madam, if you think they're in those

DULL AND COMMENTED.
Graphic Sketch of the People In Well
Gorcrned Erench. Canadian VILLAGE.

Graphic Sketch of the People In Well
Governed French-Canadian Village.
In the quiet village, where the good
cures word is law. there is likely to be
little brawling and less drinking, for
the French-Canadians are neither
quarrelsome nor Incorporate. There
may be tavern, or perhaps two tav-
ems, where not only guests are re-
ceived, but where liquor is sold, but
the cure sees to it that they are closed
very early in the evening. Long before
midnight the streets of the place are
deserted, and late wanderer need
have no fear of drunken hoodlums. A
well-governed French-Canadian vii
lage, where the cure is thoroughly re-
spected because of his wisdom and
piety, affords decided contrast to
many rural communities in English
Canada and on our own side Of the bor-
der.
The people are not enterprising. At
least this seems to be true OF all but a
few exceptions. They are content to
take what comes in their way, with
the happy faith that the morrow will
bring with it it's daily bread. They
are averse to breaking in new lands,
and, as the families are large, the
division of the farms generation after
generation finally results in such small
portions that some of the children
must seek employment elsewhere If all
are to live. Very few of them are
willing to go to the new lands of Man
itoba and the northwest, but they find
congenial occupation in the cities.
They are admirable mechanics and
are most loyal and devoted servants,
says Henry LOOMS Nelson, in Harper's
Magazine.
The Scotchman OF Englishman who
is at the head of a great establishment
prefers the French-Canadians to his
own countryInen as subordinates. He
will tell you that the Frenchmen will
remain with him all their lives; that
no such thought as seeking new en-
ployment or leaving the old for the
purpose of engaging in ventures for
himself will ever enter French-Cana-
dams head. He will stay by his old
employer all his life, and his son will
succeed to his own or a better place in
the service of the house. On the other
hand, the Englishman or Scotchman
will take the first opportunity to go
into business for himself, and will use
his employment as stepping-stone to
something better.

A FORBIDDEN SONG.

The Only Tune 1t Was Not Permissible
to Play in the Dance Hall
recall an interesting scene in Ar
bour's old dance hall in Silver Cliff in
the winter of 1S7s-79, writes Denver
correspondent. The Silver Cliff excite
ment then ranked only second to that
of Leadville, and thousands were rush
ing to the new Eldorado.
The great dance hall was crowded
with miners, prospectors and tender
feet. Two sets of dances had been on
the floor all evening. Two long rows
of gaming tables had also been run
ming at full blast, and at midnight
there came a lull in the dancing for
lunch. Some of the boys took posses
sion of the platform, and a young fell
low dressed in jacket and overalls
threw his SLOUGH hat back on his head
and struck up some familiar tune on
the piano. There were about dozen
in the party who joined in the singing
Suddenly one of the boys started up
"Home, Sweet, Home" The young man
at the piano struck in with an accom-
paniment, and that old-time song of
loved ones and home association began
to fill the great hall HPop" Arbour
was soon seen rushing toward the or
chestra platform. He had no objec-
ton to Gospel hymns, but entered a
protest at Home, Sweet Home"
Don't, boys; don't sing that song
here"
"Why not?" asked ,ne of the boys.
"You will make al of the girls home
sick and break up the dance hall.
Sing any song you want to, but not

Americans are not the only people
who show az undue reverence for a

visit to Stanley. Falkland islands, the
southernmost town on the globe,
where an incident convinced him that
a name sometimes equals an event.

Gath February, 1874"
Knowing that many nations had at
different times claimed possession of
these islands, and that several con-
flicts had resulted, it was but natural
to suppose that this proud pile dis
tinguished the spot where some British
Horatius Coolies had, single-handed, re-
PEELED the landing cutters of several
French or Spanish men-of-war, and
that his appreciative countrymen had
thus made the fact known to such of
the great world as might by accident
stray thither.
The very first citizen met begged
to tell me more of this brave, this
doughty Alfred, apologizing, of course,
for memory defective in matters of
historical Detail. And my blood al
most CONCEALED within my veins and
my heart stood still with awe as
learned that here, here on this very
spot, real live" English prince had
once set his foot, on coming ashore to
pay visit to the governor.
My informer stood solemn and seri-
GUS, but there is no use in denying that
was profigate enough to laugh.
