"1 oeimot ask you up, Ben Blend
To dine with Kate and me ;
Thus spoke a drummer to his friend,
And sighed right heavily,
know I promised to, bat then"
A. tear stole from his eye,
"The cold, frost bitten foot is, Ben,
My Bate has nude a pie."
"Tho pie is not so deadly when
An export wields tho plata ;
But that's a different pie, door Ben,
From pins oompoeed by Kate.
She's not an artiste with rho hour,
The spice, the lard, so I
Cannot invite you to our bower,
For Kate has made n pie.
You aro an honest bachelor, Ben,
Let mo some truths unload ;
Some little facts to ponder when
You're out upon the road,
Our honeymoon was filled with joy,
No cloudlete swept the sky ;
Things might have thus continued, boy,
But Kate, she made a pie.
"A parody upon the pies
My mother used to make
A thing to breed a wild eurprieo
Mixed up with stomach ache.
A. pie to eenjnro spirits up
From Sheol's sulphurods stale
On which might Maoboth'e witches sup—
That pie first made by Kate.
"What strange fatality attonds
The young wife's pio-us art?
Pro -matrimonial pastry blends
Not with the wifely heart.
Before the orange blossom fades
Wide opens many an eye ;
E'en usophisticated maids
Should make a better pia.
"And so I cannot ask you, Den,
With us to come to dine ;
Some other day --some Sunday when
My wife has ceased to shine
As Empress of the Kitoben Bongo—
Grown more discreet—and iiy—
So,Ben, old boy, don't think it strange,
But—Kato has made a pio."

(.hick response, my temperance comrades,
to the ringing trumpet's call,
In the cry of saddened millions, drinking
wormwood mixed with gall ;
Pleading with you not to falter, not to
let the banner fall ;
For death still marches on.
Gamins.—
Glory, glory, hallelujah 1
Our canoe will win we do assure.
Glory, glory, hallelujah !
For God is leading on.
Don't you hear the clank of prison chains
and shriek of maddened brain ?
Have ye pity none for victims who re-
demption sock in vain ?
We must stop this desolation of our world
for cursed gain,
That good may march along.
Glory, &o.
In this conflict for the freedom of our
!tomes, and church and state,
We contend with those whose human love
this trade has turned to hate,
To this wo give no quarter ; push the bat-
tle to the gate ;
And peace shall march along !
Glory, &c.
Lot the brewer and distiller, (Ind all
drunkard makers hear,
That their day of retribution swiftly,
surely draw eth near ;
While their cup. of compensation brim -
moth o'or with wrath and fear.
For justico marches along I
Glory, &a.
They say our "Legislation" does not do
the good required.
Our answer is, "All laws am weak" till
people's hearts are fired
With conviction strong, and purpose true,
and zeal that's never tired ; [along.
Then the law goes marching
Glory, de.
Some are asking' compensation" for re-
pression of their trade,
Well, they'll got it when they've settled
for the ruin it has made ;
With the balance left (?) we'll bury the
late jubilant "Victualler's Aid,'
As rho world goes laughing along.
Glory: to.
IIo I yo heirs of "Magna Marta," rouse
to fame of knightly deed,
In
tho Bate of "Human Suffrage," the
modern Runnymede,
Be yo barons all for Jesus, for His scrut-
ineer doth read,
How your vote goes inerohing
along,
Glory, &o.
Be ye brave of heart, my brethren, and
behold the dawning bright
Of the better day that's earning with the
triumph of the right,
When human life shall taintless be, from
drink'e accursed blight,
That day is marching out
Glory, &o.
Let the bannored hosts of temperance
keep the goal of faith in view;
"Prohibition" bo our watchword, for the
love of Christ bo true;
Till the promiee is fulfilled, and alts
"Heavens and earth mode new."
For Christ 10 marching on I

A3'ashioea Noteel.
Seal skim will bo more in demand
than over.
,'Trains will bo worn at rooeptiono
and churoh weddings this winter,
htit dancing•dresses will bo made
°bort.
Beaded °paalete aro still faehion-
ably employed for giving ti drossy
offset to the bodice, as well as abort•
1 ening the length between the high
collar and the top of the eleevee.
There ie hat little °hangs to note
as yet in the fashion of fere, The
most important this season is the
introduction of a pelorine, with long
square.panelled fronts, after n fash-
ion in vogue over a hundred years
ago.
A revival among the season's
fashions is the making of eleovos of
a different material from the bodice,
those very usually of a fabric match-
ing the vest and panels. In point
of economy this is an excellent ar-
rangement. In point of good taste
or artistic offset, the fashion le not
a success.
Importations of French millinery
reveal tho fact that there le but
slight difference iu the effect of
trimmings, there being no radical
change either in the general style
and contour of the new models.
Tho,, garnitures are placed but to
trifle lower upon the bonnet, and a
bit more of breadth is given at rho
sides.
Now velvety felt bonnets are daily
brought out in very handsome fall
shades. Those are ehaped with
coronet fronts, pointed brims, much
reseinbling the Tao -Peep model of
last spring, and also the brim toque
so becoming to oval faces. The
felts are trimmed with row upon
row of pinked felt, cords of velvet
with loops to match, embroidery,
and changeable and watered velvet.
Hoods aro again added to every
sort of wearing apparel upon which
they can appropriately be placed.
Clerical booth' aro worn upon the
backs of the olose•fitting English top
coats of tweed, as well as upon many
other models. Though most hoods
are ornamental, some are designed
to be useful as well. Bounded, at,
pointed, shirred, pleated and even
heart - shaped they appear upon New -
markets, pelerines, visitee, ulsters,
tea -gowns, matinees, waterproofs,
and B'rench-made night-dresses, of
Chinese washiug, silklaoe-trimmed.
All the cbanges having been rung
en basques, bodies and jackets,
polonaises will receive a large share
of favor this winter, and the soft
eamole'-hair goods, melonta, and
suitinge of various kinds will be
utilized for the long stately reding-
otes to be worn over striped, plaid-
ed, or plain velvet skirts. One of
the new wool etuffs has heavy lines
woven in triple rows that are so
wide and so prominent that they re-
semble Soutocbe braid applied in
bias rows. This is tho result of the
furore for braid trimmings that so
widely prevailed.
Pale almond and delicato rose,
combined with dark green velvet,
arc throe colon which aro to be ox,
ceedingly fashionable this winter in
evening toilets of various elegant
kinds. Different shades of these
exquisite hues aro equally becoming
to blonde or brunette, and their
beauty will bo euhanoed by silk em-
broideries and garnitures of a new,
beautiful lace, whose weblike mesh
and intricate designs closely re-
semble the daintiest patterns In real
point, but, being executed by ma-
chinery under a new and wonderful
progress, the lace costs less than a
fifth of the value of the real.
PROVERi1S. MOH CENTRAL
AFRICA.
Some of our miesiouaries have
collected a number of Central' Afri-
can proverbs. Many of them ap.
pear as old friends in a new dress,
but most have a freehnoss of the
soil about them. Others, again,
aro as prosy as—well, as provorbe
ought not to be. A fete of them are
as follows :—
Ito that injures another, injures
himself,
He who forgives le victor in the
diepute.
We should not treat othere with
contempt. '
An inmate that cannot be tamed
(said of fire).
The sword does not know the
head of the blacksmith (who made
it).
A misohief•makor will not do to
tell secrets to.
If the whole assembly of the town
convene, they find no sacrifice to
make against Borrow.
Though many poste be absent,
it is the cheerful mal wo miss.
He who horraseos one teaches
him strength.
Tho pig has wallowed in tho mire,
he is socking ie clean person to rub
against (said of disgraced persons
Who wish to koop good oompany).
A strongman without economy is
the father of laziness.
H,olp to the end is the help we
muet give to at lazy Ulan.

Would you pure or kill en evil

A man who strives earnestly and
perseveringly to convince others at

It is humility to think, not that

The aspirations of the race for

Nothing but the right can ever be

fice a greater good to a less.
Confucius said : To know that

If you should over bo betrayed

There would not bo half the dif-
ficulty iu doing right, but for the
frequent occurrence of oases where
the lesser virtues are on tho side of

Jealousy is said to bo the off-

We now no longer Damp as for a

How vigilant we are 1 Determin-
ed not to live by faith if WO can
