have seen at last q happy
man, the happiest l ever knew.
He is perhsps' As years old, and
his Happiness has been unbroken
for two years or more.
Hear his story. He is gentle
man in every sense Of the word
He has means, social position, and
large circle Of devoted relatives
and friends. He has a fine physi-
que, handsome face. But we
did not call him happy man.
"such : happy man" until two
years ago, when q great change
came. He never married, and
the Miss x. Of whom / tell yon
was no more to him than his life
long comrade, his best Of friends
an old neighbor, related to him in
many ways, but never BY q tender
tie.
Perhaps he had been more Of an
invalid than he knew Of or than
his friends dreamed. One sum-
mer day he went to.a little lake
not far from his native village,
popular inland resort, and spent
what he called upon bis return
that night "a perfect day" Skies
were never bluer, he said, nor
flowers fairer nor the lake so lovely
to him as upon that day. Only he
had expected to meet Miss X. there
and to have had their usual sail
together. NJ
He would 60 again on the NOR
row, take her with him and so
double and increase the JOY. He
went to her house that evening to
play whist as usual. 1t was Sat-
urday. She had gone to spend
Sunday at the lake. He was very
glad she had gone, he said; he
would join her, the next day. Dnr-
ing the game he alluded many
time to the happy day he had
passed. And what is there in life
after all like q tomorrow full Of
promise? 4.
That night after reaching his
room he had paralytic stroke-
not severe one, onlvea slight
shock, but it clouded his brain, if
we can call that clo'ld which
fixed forever in his mind the hap.
piness reigning there when it came.
Every day since then has been
that happy Saturday to him. He
has inst returned from the lake.
No matter if the snow 10 drifting or
the rain is heating the windows, i
has been q perfect day, everything
is divine harmony. He will 60
over 10 KS for . game Of whist.
Even if Miss x. meets him he asks
if she is at home; as il he we're adj
dressing some one else; then be Is
90 glad be 10 up at the lake; be 10
going back tomorrow; there i
every sign Of perfect weather, ETC.,
all in his old time charming way.
Then he takes up his cards and
plays . capital game and goes
home in the sweet expectation Of q
happy tomorrow.

SONGS or YESTERDAY.

Some OF tho Popular Airs Which We
Havo Sung nnd Tired Or
A western paper has complied n sort
of history of the catchy popular airs
which have been sung during our time
or when our parents were young. Tho
list Is interesting.
a few weeks! ago, says the writer,
the favorites in the way Of songs were
''Ta-Ra-Ra-Boom-De-A," Comrades
and The Bogey Man" 1t is u curious
fact in connection, with 'Ta-Ra-Ra-
Boom-Dc-A" that some months ago
the writer sailed away from Liver
pool, England, and the last thing ho
heard was that song, and o N reaching
New York harbor the first thing to
greet him rs n welcome TO his own
country was tho same song, sung by n
coal HEAVIER on tho dock. lie might
have alluded herc T. the run OF "My
Swcethcart'g the Ma In tho Moon
and "Aftcr the BALL"
Prior to the advent Of tho before
mentioned songs, he continues, we had
Q long siege of Little Annie Rooney"
and Maggie Murphy's Home" Then
we Ind before these n lengthy attack
of Down Went McGinty," and before
this q number of IIGrrigan &c Harris
thcatcr comique songs, such as "Mulli-
gan Guards" maj. Gilfcather' Gud
others similar in style. Then proceed
ing this era we had ''Pceli-a-Boo' and
"La-di-Dah." Before this whoa, En-
mai" champagne Charlie" capt.
Jinlis," 'Shoo Fly" and Not for Joe,"
pretty we'll mixed up with sentimental
songs of the Put Me in My Little
Bed and SILVER Threads Among tho
Gold" ''Norah O'Ncil," "Lillic Dale"
and Come Where My Love Lies Dream
ing" type.
During the n of the rebellion how
we'll the writer remembers the songs
he heard, being then n boy. He saw
the soldiers marching by the house
where he lived, md listened with
bated breath to the songs they 6unG, of
Tramp, Tramp, the Boys Are March
ing" Rally Round the Flag" John
Browns Body" and Marching Thro'
Georgia." and then the different style
of songs sung by the women folk at
home, such as "Bravc Boys Are They
Tie Vacant Chair" "Mothcr, Dear,
Your Boy Is Woundcd," or ."Tcntirg
Tonight" or when ThisCruel War Is
Over or the EloIe humorous ones of
The Captain With His Whiskcrs Took
n Sly Glance at Me" or "Thc Bold Sol
dier Boy"
Tho songs before that period were
different from any since. Tho names
of some of these werc, Roll on Silver
Moon" Ben Bolt" THE Old oakcn
Bucket" 1.-THE Indian Boys Lament
THE Irish Emigrant's Lament" and
Hard Times Come Again No More
These must have been rather dolcful
times. There was another song quite
popular ut that time, called Cruel
barbara Allen" go the writer has been
told. But this is about the extent OF
his knowledge on the song question.
