M OF THR HOUR.

Years ago there lived in a Massachu
setts town a justice of the peace known
as Square" Simmonds, a man noted
for the shortness of his memory. He
carried about with him a slip of paper
on which was written the brief mar
riage form which he used when called
upon to unite a pair in the bonds Of
matrimony. He never trusted him
eelf to begin the ceremony without re-
ference to this document.
One day at a county fair in q neigh.
boring town he was approached by an
elderly couple, who expressed their
wish to be married then and there.
After some conversation the ''equare'
agreed to perform the ceremony on the
spot, and the three, accompanied by a
grown up daughter of the man and a
sister Of the prospective bride, stepped
into a convenient horse shed.
There the square" began a fruitless
search for the important paper, grow
ing o and more perturbed as each
succeeding pocket played him false.
At last he abandoned the search.
Are you willing to marry this
woman8" he asked the man, who re,
piled with a prompt Yes"
"And you want to marry HING
asked the ~lstice, turning to the bride.
II do" said she with promptneea
equal to the bridegroom's.

most impressive tone, 81 hereby pro.
