happiness.

Oh, where ia this wonderful joy to be
found; this "pearl of great price?"
Who is happy? And after all, is not
happiness but an idle delusion OF the
brain? A mere shadow that all are
pursuing yet none ever fully grasp!
For like mist before the morn, 1t van
isheth away ere we realize it ia in our
possession.
Sometimes our hearts are fixed on
certain things, and we vainly think in
them we would certainly tiud the tickle
goddess. But, alas! if our desires are
granted, it comes 10 us with dead sea
fruits, and our joy soon falls, and again
the hungry heart, like the daughter OF
hOrse-leech, cries out, Give! Give!
The feeling OF hope deferred is forever
there, and the lOngiugs of the human
heart are never satisfied, and, though
volumes have been written on his sub
| iect, it remains to be written where one
human soul has found perfect happl-
ness.
And yet people say, ave might be
| happy" Oh, what a world Of meaning
! conveyed in that word "mignt." 1t il
the death knell to many fond hopes a
dagger To the bleeding heart; misery
untold; tears unshed; anguish incon-
ceivable! Eve in the Garden of Eden
"might" have resisted temptation, hut
alas! she did not, and the trail of the
serpent Is over everything.
! Take love for instance. The crown
ing joy If life, the grandest emotion
that hearts can feel. It rules with a
rod of iron, and sways the stOntost Will
it cheers the darkest pathway, ano
while it lasts, makes all things bright
or and better. But alas, alas! is no
the serpent there? Does not the fears
jealousies and suspicious, rob love of i'll
happiness, and prove to us that IL II
nothing more than a mixture of smile

the position and prospects OF the two
great parties Senator Henry Cabot

Hat Legislation In olden Times.


Hats were subjected to good deal Of
arbitrary legislation in England. Henry
VII had an act passed which fixed "the
maximum price of hat at 20 pence and
a cap at five times that sum-" During
the reign of Elizabeth capmaking was
protected" by statute in which it
was provided that ION Sundays and
holidays all the males were to wear on
their heads caps Of wool, knit, thicked
and dressed in England, made only by
capmakers residing within the realm"
The clergy were disposed to follow the
fashions Of the day, but in the middle
ages they were ordered not to wear any
hat but the cornet-the square cap of the
doctors of divinity.
A similar 4-eornered hat is worn by
the university men in England, and when
there is gold tassel on the center it in
dicates that the wearer belongs to the
nobility. The bishop of Dol, in the
twelfth century, permitted only the can
ons to wear square hats, and enjoined
that when any other persons wearing
them entered the churches divine serv-
ices should Immediately cease.-Phila-
delphia Ledger.
