ments before by herself and older girls,

born at period when every household
was a general mandatory, and hand
work the order Of the day, industry and
thrift were necessities, and she grew gp
in the full exercise Of these virtues. Her
home was her kingdom, csrkened once
by death, when Luslla, her eldest. passed

left, Paul c., at whose home the last five
years of her life were spent, and WIN. A.,

THE BACHELORS DEFENSE.
(By the eight remaining bachelors)
In the little town Of PethyiIle,
In the old Green Mountain state.
There were nine jolly bachelors
And now there are but eight.
And though We've lost one member
Who II eating wedding cake,
We are all Of Us decided
Twas a fearful jump to take.
We are all OF us attractive,
And our manners they nice,
But alas among those dear old maids
We do not cut much ice.
But our lives stili have their pleasures,
And we also have our rights
We don't have TO pay for bonnets.
We don't have 10 stay in nights.
And so. a IL - leap year.
We must rise in defense.
And pray that no fair lady
viii snatch any OF Us hence.
May our ranks remain unbroken.
Though the ladies' admire:
We must not leave the frying pan
To jump into the fire.

John Augustus O'Shea used to be In
considerable request as a lecturer on
his military experiences. Once, at
Dumfries, he came upon the platform
wearing in his buttonhole a daisy,
which he quietly removed and held up.
Ladies and gentlemen" he began,
'T hold In my hand a wee modest
flower I plucked this evening from
the grave Of Robert Burns" The au-
dience was interested and became In
thralled as the lecturer went on to
speak of the national poet. Then,
suddenly recollecting that Burns had
nothing to do with his subject, be
stopped abruptly. "And now" said
Mr.. Oshea, II will proceed to relate
my experiences in the war"
But by this time he had thoroughly
engaged the sympathies Of bis listen
ers. who would not hear Of another
subject. Never min the war, sir, /"
they vociferated; gle US Robbie
Burnsw And he did. This extempore
grafton afterward became one OF the
most popular Of Mr.. O'shea's lectures.

"a railroad that was notorious for Its
