It is interesting to note th@t thi caskct so planned had square ends and perfectly straight sides and enGs. 1l fact, in shape it wus precisely the same as the present most advanced stylo of modern burial caskct, which was lot introduced until some years uftcrward.

Seven of my girls had been betting on Throstlo against Ladas tho other week and won. This week thcy lave been losing, the bookoy,' as they called him, having failed.

The Wedding Ring.

The ring was considered Il badgc of serv- itnde by some and was for that reason given by tho man to his wife, likc our foro- fathers, who were accustomed to give tho future son-in.law one of the brides shoes Us n sign of authority over her. It was re- puted to be accompanied by tap on the head of tho bride with the said shoe by the husband in order to assert his prerogative. The ring was used in ancient times as q sign of contract, and from that fact &C., cording to tho antiquary Brand, it was nearly abolished by the Puritans of Crom- well on account of it's hcathenish origin. Butler, in his "Hudibras, refers to it;
 Others were for abolshing
 That toolof rlGtrimons-. a ring,
 With which the unsanctiied bridegroom
 Is married only to a thumb.

An old Latin writer thus describes the ring "Q) It is circular, because its form importeth that mutual love and hearty affection should always exist between the givor and wearcr (2) Its Totundity cxemplifleth that the loving joys of courtship and matri- mony should be forever, their continuity remaining as unbrokcn as the circlct it. self Chambers Journal.
