John leIassall; the well-known Eng- lish. lisb artist, has included stories of our country in his reaniniso('nces. Here are dome of Ills amusin' tales: Before I suceeeeed as an artist I roua'hea it in the wilds of panedti. . One Christmas I 'had a strange die - appointment, My nearest neighbor and I had devoted much time to the fattening up of an excellent goose • for ,our Christmas dinner. 1 enjoyed my walk to his raneh, for. I had great aiatiei- Pations and a greater appetite. He wasver3 pleased5ed when I axxiY- -ed. I was glad, too, particularly w.ben I saw the a -i el tet goose n c y ' trussed e the d on tl e tab waiting w� ng to be popped into the oven. My friend took me inside and wished me a merry "Christmas. He drank my health and made a speech. " Then T. drank his' health and made a speech —a longer one,. Then we drank the goose's health and made more speeches. We 'thought that by this time she was due to be popped into .the oven, But there wasn't going to be any goose. Two hungry collie dogs own- ed hy wn-ed''by my friend had rnacle good use of the time we had spentproposing healths. They had just finished the. goose when we went to find•her— bontheye. hadn't' even left us the .'wish- • Diaries •are very useful things in their way, but you certainly must be very careful with them or trouble is sure to result sooner or later. If` you'. write the real truth in them you should keep them under lock and key. Over one of be studios where fellow -artists and I used to meet was a fiat occupied by a middle-aged lady, who tried, to pass herself off as a pretty young flapper.' Occasionally she was kind enough to invite us to her "at homes," and one time 'she wished to make a splash,. . But a geanastyred, hitch occurred when° we aP- Siiniehow or other she had. obtain- ed possession of my diary and bad been inquisitive enough to 'open it and glance at the contents. Strange- ly enough, the first page she opened contained this jotting; "Miss Interesting study for sketch, but oh! her nose!" Canadian winters are very severe. Consequently' I `was not very pleased when, one Christmas Eve, I was knocked up, and requested in agitat- ed tones to "come at once!" The culprit was a new servant en- gaged by 'a neighbor. He was super- stitious, and apparently had been looking' put for ghosts. I ran to the house, thinking that at least murder was in the air. - , My friend had not been home that evening, no .. • h house,- butand when one peepedwasthrough e the .door I saw, by the light of the moon, a rather 'uncanny sight. The sheets on tire bed were bobbing up and down, and I heard very peculiar noises. As for the servant, he almost fainted with 'fright. I pulled myself together, approached the bed, and stripped off the clothes. , -- I discovered two little 'pigs, very much alive and kicking. Their moth- er had died, but my friend, who was passionately fond of pork,, had been looking after them and had put them in the bed to keep them warm, Whore Tout Should Marry. Snobbishness is always very objec- tionable, but it .should' form an in surmountable. barrier in the path of matrimony to this week's girl and J:young•man. They must on no ac- count seek a life alliance with . any- one who has the reputation for being a snob or over -fond of show., The intended one. of this week's girl and man should be very broad- minded, genial, frank, unselfish, full of arguing; not inquisitive, or cur- ious of other people's affairs. They should be better listeners than.talk- ers,, fond of but not over indulgent with children. --The intended one of this week's girl and young man sbould . not be very much younger tixan_.theeaseives. He or she should be'clever with their fingers, and yet, at .the same time, be able to calculate well, and should have -a shrewd knowledge of business. It would never do for this week's girl or man, to marry anyone who had no worldly wisdom, and who was easily taken in. Theintended ono should prefer- ably hail from some district other than that in which this week's girl or man was born, „theanorth rather than the south, and from a flat rather than a, very hilly locality. They should have no marked hat- tirai defect, such as a withered arm or very crooked eyes. On the con - Crary, this week's intended one should be essentially normal in every respect, It is necessary that they should be sensitive to color: influence and that mauve or primrose should be their luelty color. Their significant number should also be six,.., to tee .Long Kea)?
