In Java, as a part of the marriape cere- mony, the bride washes the feet of the grown. In Servin and Bulgaria the groom gives the bride a tap with the heel of her own shoe. The Greek Church: employs two rings in the marriage oeremony-cue of gold, the other of silver. The wedding ring has at one time or another been wore on the thumb end every finger. Four rings were used in the marriage ceremony of Mary Stuart to the unfor- tunate'Darnley. The use of the wedding ring is first noted in Egypt, wbeu the ring was the emblem of eternity. Among the New Zealand natives the most important part of the oeremony is a terrific mock scuffle. In Samoa the bride wears a wreath of flowers, a dress of cocoa matting, and has her fade colored with turmatic. Among the Tarten8 a marriage is al- ways attended by a sham fight between friends of the groom and bride. Freru !lids Richard's Almanac. Have many acquaintances and few friends. Pity promptly ; you will save intermit thereby - Never oppress the poor; even thejpoor have votes. Never orftieise your neighbor ; he may be a fighter ho disguise. Lend your friend money at a fair rata of intereet, but indorse for no man. Aseooiate with the rich ; a man ie mi0. taken for the company he keeps. Look after the dollar and save time, for every dollar contains ten dimes. A haughty marriage oonoealeth an emp- ty pocket, often from impertinent 00rio0- ity. Do not pay dear for your whistle, you May never have a ohanoo to make it dear- er to some one else. If you must he oharitable, be charitable in public. It seta a good example and you get awns return. Do not form habits of extravagance. If you aro not extravagant yourself you will be better able to profit by the extrav- agance of others, A private in the Garrison Artillery, Montreal, was fined $10 or 20 day's im- prisonment for selling his uniform by Judge Dugas.

Mrs. Davidson though not kinked by the borne, received quite a severe shook to her nervous system, from which she has not fully recovered.
