weddinR superstitiOns.

In spite of all her sound good sense
a German girl cherishes certain SUI
perstitions which she likes to observe
on her wedding day. For instance
the moon must be increasing, neither
at the full nor on the wane, for a wan
ing moon foretells that marriage, love
and luck will dwindle, while a full
moon denotes but stationary luck at
the best but a waxing marriage moon
will bring an increase Of nuptial hap
piness. health and prosperity, says
Woman's Life.
Neither will any German bride, OF
whatever rank, wear pearls, for she
firmly believes in the forbidding old
adage, "The more pearls a woman
wears upon her wedding day, the more
tears she sheds in after life" In the
Fatherland, too, If it rains upon the
bridal day, the bride will wisely look
upon the best side of the matter, and
regards the glistening raindrops not
as her English sister does-as pro-
phetic Of tears, but showers Of bless
ings," while If she weeps at her mar
rage, she laughs after, saying she has
spent her tears beforehand, so that
she will have none to shed in her new
home.

the minute hand, for 1t is longer than
the hour hand.
The clock has neither feet nor legs
but 1t runs just the same. 1t may
be fast or slow, but 1t does not walk
1t always runs, and it never runs up,
1t runs down, unless 1t Is kept running
round. Providence wisely did not give
feet to the clock.
The clock has key, but no lock
and for that reason even the most
ignorant person never tries to open
clock with the key.
Some clocks strike and some do not
but no clock ever strikes with Its
hands. Just why clock should be 50
peculiar Is no affair Of ours.
(Of course this is no joke. The
striking of a clock may be an affair
of hours, but it is not spelled the same
way. We are not trying to be funny,
This is a dignifled article. Please 90

0od-night, dear papa; hope you
sleep WELL"
Goodnight" he answered, cheerfully,
"and give my love to Missile"
Alison felt strangely happy as she left
her fathers room; it seemed to her as
though they were coming closer to each
other. There had been a look in her
fathers eyes and a caressing tone In his
voice that told her that she was becom-
ing very dear to him. She said to herself
In her young gladness that Providence
had accepted her sacrifce-her fathers
heart was no longer closed to her, and
Mabel was beginning to love her. ASK
and 1t shall be given to you," was abun-
dainty realized in her case-so true it is
that love begets love, that the Divine seed
of charity sown broadcast, even over bar
rem hearts, will still yield some thirty
fold, some sixty-fold, some hundred-fold.
Alison's tranquil rest that night was
only preparation for a most trying day.
Missile had left her bed for the couch
that afternoon. When Alison had placed
her comfortably, she had gone down
stairs for a few minutes to speak to
Anna, leaving Miss Leigh In charge. Anna
detained her longer than usual-she had
so much to say on the subject of Eva g
approaching marriage, and while Alison
was still talking and listening, Miss Leigh
hurried down stairs with very pale face.
81 wish you would come" she said, in
much agitation; mabel is SO very hys-
terical can do nothing with her. Per-
haps have been incautious, but she ques-
toned me so closely as to what the ply
sicians said about her father that could
not avoid telling her."
"Oh, dear, what pity. l meant to
have told her myself when she was bet
ter" observed Alison, somewhat reproach-
fully.
Miss Leigh's tact was often at fault,
and she had chosen an unlucky moment
for breaking the news to Missie-just
when she was weary with the fatigue of
dressing.
Alison found her in a sad state-sob-
bling bitterly, with her head hidden in
the pillows-and for long time she re-
fused to allow Alison to raise her into
a more comfortable position. To her re-
lief, Roger entered the room and asked
Immediately, in his downright manner,
what was the matter, and why Missile
was making herself Ill.
This brought on fresh burst
"Oh, Roger what shall do7 Poor
papa I"
ut is poor Mabel, think" observed
Roger, kindly, and he raised the sobbing
little figure In his arms and brought the
wet face into, view. II declare, child,
you are a perfect Niobe. Allie, what are
we to do with her?"
HE will not get up for months-per-
haps for years-and 1t is all my fault p
cried Missile, passionately.
Perhaps so, my dear, but do you sup
