"Well, the handle bar was trying to
saddle the affair onto me," remarked the
wheel, with a trifle of resentment in its
tone.

the handle bar.
"Was your headlight ?" responded the
wheel viciously.
"It may have been but there are no

"May I axle a little question ?" meekly
inquired the chain.

MARRIAGE ODDITIES.
At Romau marriages the wedding ring
was placed on the thumb.
In Spain water in which a wedding
ring has been dipped is good for sore eyes.
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.

A private in the Garrison Artillery,

prisonment for selling his uniform by
Judge Dugas.
Rod Davidson, Mrs. A. J.Davideon and
daughter, and Mise Lily Woods, a young
girl from Rothsay, were driving at Galt
the other day, when the horse suddenly
aommenoed to kick. Tbe first kick de-
molished the dashboard, which mused
Miss Woods to look around. As she
turned the animal made another kick,
one of his hoofs striking her a fearful
blow in the fade, breaking in the bone of
her nose and cutting bee badly. Rod
Davidson was also kicked on the hand
but be pluckily held on to the horse and
managed to pull him up and quiet him.
The injured girl was taken to the Galt
hospital. Her Injuries though severe,
will not prove fatal. Mr. Davidson had
ono or two fingers knocked out of joint
and some of the bones in his left hand in-
jured. Mrs. Davidson though not kinked
by the borne, received quite a severe
shook to her nervous system, from which
