It wasn't hardly tile fair thing that the boys did to Joe Thomson the night he was married, but the temptation was ir resistible. They could not have helped it to save their lives, I'll tell you how it was. Joe was about the most fancy dressed buck in town-over-nice and particular a perfect Miss Nancy in manners,-al ways putting on airs, and more dainty ~ and modest than a girl. Well, when his wedding day came he was dressed, trunk empty,and his pants, especially, titled him as candle-moulds, and his legs eau dies nm inti? them. Tight was no nattie for them. Th-ir set was immense, lind h.; was prouder thrum half a d zen pea cocks. " Aren't tht-y-nice, boys ?" he asked of th-3 two b> y's who were lo be groomsmen,' and see that he threw himself away after the most approved manner. " Stunning !",4.'-Gor*goous !" replied Tom I?^nuett. , " Xever saw anything equal to thom. Biff',''? say, Joe. aren't they thp least 1>tt too tight? lt strikes me that y?>u wirf ha vu some difficulty in bending. w<?ut }tni f " lv>h:iw, ii-? ; they ar?: as easy as an O?d gli.Ve. See !"' To prove ita ti tatter. be bent down sn as lo toueh-his patent leathers, when, erick ! crack ! followed like twin reports of a revolver. "Thunder !-5 exehifnied Joe as he put his band behind and found a rent in the cassimero from stern to stern. "Thun iler,-t??? pants have burst and what shall I do !" li 1 should rathec think, they- had," ans wered Tom getting purple in the fice, as Ire endeavoredwto ^control his laughter ; M bu.t thete is bo thae .to get another pair. lt only .want* half an hour to thc staud iug up-time,-and we have gota mile to iro"-carnage waiting, too." " ? What shall I do, oh what shall I do?" " I tel] you,.what, if mine would fit you, yon shalfv haye them and welcome, hut they are about a mile too big ; they would' set Hke a shirt on' a bean pole, r see no way bolto have them mended." - * Who cen I get to do ir, Tom ?" " Well 1 am something ?>f a Uti I or, and can lix them so they won't show. Hold oil a ' ni mute, arid P?1 get a needle and thread." Can you 1 May'heti'ven' bless you !"' "Off with your coat," commanded Tuui, as he cause back. " Now lay yourself over on the bed. and I'll lix you in short order." The c<w?mapd was. obeyed; tho"pants mended"; the cost tails carefully pinned, over, s?) ai to conceal the " distress for rent," and all went merry as the marriage bell, until So? followed thc bride to the nuptial couch. There was only a dim light in the room, but it en ibled Jo?, ? as h \ glanced bi-hfuliy armin IT to se.e th.V sweetest face in the world, the rosy cheeks and bright lips;.the lovely and loving blue 'eyes, and the golden curls Jtst peeping from out lit? snow y sheets, and he-extinguished it ajtogellier and hastened to disrobe him self! Off came coat, vest, fancy noetic and collar, boots and socks in a hurry, but somehow tlje pants stuck. Thc more he tried the more they wouldn't como, and he lugged vainly for half an hour. 11 Thunder !" muttered Joe. '.What'd the matter dear ?" came in the softest accents front the bed where somebody wa; wondering.if he was ever coming; and forgetting his nccustomned bashfulness, he blurted out: "Mil!, that cursed Tom Bennett has sewed my p.nits.drawers, shirt and under shirt all together ! ' " k is too had ! Wait a moment mv dear." A little stockingless foot peeped out first, then a ruffled night dress, the lamp was lighted, a pair of scissors found, Joe released, and uhhongh he denies it, Tom l/*tine|ti.wJL?ars tha?us wadding shirt w:i <>f the shor;e-: possible exrenr, reasoning a posfc,\>:"i ..- ? ? ? - 41 ?.KT JUEM?S Go."-Th?

Wurlie thar? By gum, he wur.

An orator, who had raised his audience to a great height by his lofty soarings, exclaimed, " ? will now close; in the beautiful and expressive language o? the poet-? forget his name-and and-1 forget what he said, too." i Think of the Poor? How much of true religion is con nected with tho poor! Christ seems to luve rake? theiii under Iiis s'peVial charge. His Gospel was preached io thc poor; and this waa ono of thc signs which be sent to John the Baptist in prison. With His own blessed bunds He fed the poor by a creative act, having companion on them when they fainted. Iiis miracles, we have reason to think, ".ere, in a ma jority nf instance?, wrought upon the poor'; and," the common people heard him gladly." The apostles at Jerusalem were anxious that Pani should remem ber the poor. And when Christ shall sit, on his throne of judgment he will make inquisition concerning all we have done, .or tailed to do, in regard to the hungry, thc naked, the stranger, the prisoner, and the'sick, and will regurd us as having done, or failed to do, all this to Himself. There are powerful motives to make us think of the poor. When it is well with us, we should remember them ; when wo hear the storm beating-upon our habitations, and yet are securely shel tered, warmed, fed, sitting over our books or among our children, we should think of the poor; when God has sent us some large or unexpected gains, we should think of the poor, if at arty time, for a short period, Ve are made to experience cold, or pinching want; or hunger, or re pulses from the proud, let us consider it au occasion for sympathizing with thou sands who aro suffering something of this ali their lives. Reader, have you made this a part of your religion, or divine service, kl tri visit I he fatherless and widows ?" Or is this part of your Christian character defec tive?-Milwaukee Church Register. Beginning to Believe. "Bubbles," of ihe-Cdilbrnia Golden Era, gtd.-; off the following: I begin to believe, now-a-days money makes the man, and dress.the gentleman. I begin to believe that the purse is more potent thaii^ the sword and pen to gether. I begin to believe that thone who sin the most during the. week are the devout est on Sundays. I begin to believe that honesty is the best policy-to speculate with until you have gained every body'sconltdeuce - then line your pockets. I begin to believe in humbugging peo ple ont of their dollars, k is neither stealing nor begging; and tlnne who are humbugged luve only themselves to blame I begin to believe that a man was not made lo enjoy life, but to keep himself miserable in the pursuit and possession of riches. I begin to belive that the surest reme dy for hard limes and a tight money market is an extravagant expenditure on the part of the individual-to keep the fnoney moving. I begin to believe that none but knaves arc qualified to hold office under Govern ment-with the exception of a few natu ral born fools and lunatics. I begin to believe that a piano-fort? is more nscessary iii a family than meat and potatoes. I begin to believe that a boy who doesn't swear, smoke and chew tobacco, may be a very good boy, but naturally stupid. , I be^in to believe that if the devil shoidd die, one half of the world would be thrown out of employment. : LIVELY PROSE.-The following para graphs Jiave. snell a. jingling sound that some people, who didn't kuow any better, might think it was poetry": ? There isa blithesome maiden that lives next door to me; her eyes are black as midnight, and handsome as can be.

And then she. put her face, friends, as near mine as she could, and with the sweetest smile, friends, said sim ply that she would-escort me to the door, if I was ready to depart.
