correspondent who has required some
thing along this line will find the need
supplied:

May they cystalize as they fall,
And become pearls, so in after years
To be worn in memory of those whom
we have loved.
Here's to the merry old world
And the days. be they bright and blue
Here's tothe Fates-let them bring
what they may
But the best of them all--hat's you.
To the old, long life and treasure;
To the young, all health and pleasure.
Here's to her who halves our sorrows
And doubles our joys.
"Our sweethearts: May they never
grow less.
Turn failure into victory,
Don't let your courage fade,
And IL you get lemon,
Just iaake the lemon aid.

Geoaraphical Doubles.

The doubles" of geographical no' menclature are endless. They may be partly accounted for by the tendency of all people to assimilate place names to something with which they are Ia miliar. Galicia takes its name from the town of Halicz, but the Hungarian king who annexed the region at the end of the twelfth century called him. self "Rex Galatiae"-presumably re- calling the country in Asia Minor known to us through St. PauPs Epistie
 And now we call this country by the same name as the northwestern corner of Spain once inhabited by the Caliaici or Gallaeci. And close by are the Car pathian mountains. which have no con nection with the Carpathian sea, the part of the Mediterranean near Rhodes named after the Island of CarpatLus.
