Tho Skeleton at tho Wedding.

A. G. c. Liddell was once best man
at a wedding at which one of the
presents was. to say the least, uncon.
ventional. This is his story in "Notes
From the Life of an Ordinary Gentle
man." considerable excitement was
raised among the spectators when it
was rumored that tall oak box
placed against the wall contained a
skeleton. and all sorts Of rumors were
rife as to the significance of such a
curious wedding gift. The real ex-
PLANTATION was simple An eccentric
old gentleman had once found the
bride, who was fond of drawing, max
ing study from skull and had
vowed that he would give her whole
skeleton when she was married. The
result was that after protracted nego-
tiation he secured the framework OF
an Austrian grenadier. which, be-
lieve. 1t was found most difficult to
import. This was not the sole trouble
connected with the gift. as when the
young couple set up house the serv.

The Ancient Oracles.

Herodotus mentions between seven
ty and eighty oracles Of one sort and
another. There is no reason for think
ing that the people who patronized
the oracles had other than the liveliest
faith in them. The two great oracles
were those at Delphi and Dodona.
though there were several others that
stood we'll with the people. The pre-
dictions were. of course. nothing but
predictions. since it Is now generally
understood that the promoters OF
those famous institutions were only
ordinary human beings like those who
patronized them. The deliverances OF
the oracles belong to one OF two
classes-first, those founded on secret
information and, second. those II
which the oracle had absolutely nj
ideas on the subject and took refuge
in sheer vagueness. 1t was the faitf
of the people rather than the infalli
bility Of the oracles that kept then
up so long.
