reasons for this rarity. • it is possible to
produce a dozen or two, but the. most
otriking of all is that there are net Many
people to marry. The - coont4 is
sparsely populated, the peasants are
carefal and thrifty, the young people
are gravely brought up„ and they have
usually too much to do to let the

A Norwegian wedding is a very sig-
nificant incident. .There is realty so
nureh that precedes it. To the map it
means that he hasattained a certain
position. There must be 0.0 doubt of
his ability to keep a wife. If he is a
boder, or freehold farmer, he must
have succeeded to the farm, or his par-
ents- must be willing to retire from
active work and leave him supreme.
ff he is a housem,an, or laborer, he most
also have succeeded to the allotment on
the skirt of the bo•nder's farm, consist-

he must have. ottained his allotment in
some ether way. He pays rent, does
work for the bonder at fixed wages, and

Betsy Patterson's Mule Ride.
Springfield was daid opt by William
Patterson,the great Baltimore merchant,
so faonous for his commercial affairs in
the early part ot the present century. It
was in Springfield that Elizabeth (or
Betsy) Patterson first heard of the arri-
• val id Prince Jerome, the brother of the
great Bonaparte, M America. She was
Irving out. there with her father when
the grand ball was to be given ireBalti-
more to the young Prince and his associ-
ate.-. She begged her father to be al-
lowed to go to town for the ba 1, but he
not tody refused to take her, but locked
up al the horses and het dresses. Her
di emnination to captivate and marry
the young Prince, with the aid of her
matchless beauty, was too well settled
to he prevented by her father's orderso
and, mounting a mule in her common
Jettlec -dress,and aecompanied-by a color-
ed eervant, who carried her bail -dress on
auother mule, she set out after dark on
her tWenty-mile ride over the Liberty
rood for Baltimore. While the ball was

heort, and brought upon herself a 1 the
seveuty years of woe and trouble that

in defiance of the Pope's decision, to
recognize her as his sister-in-law. The

his wife, and married again. Mme.
Bonaparte returned to Maryland, and,

lature of her native State, she lived in

The Closing of the Year.
Another day and the year which to
-some has brought happiness and to
others misfortune will be added to those
which have passed before it. Many will
during the present month sit in retro-
epeetive thoughts over the events which
hot e marked the year in their lives. To
the young the years speed not fast
enough ; to the old they are all too short.
1 tie young man employs the closing of
°he year in preparing for the next, the
aged man rouses over the events of past
years, and contemplates the mysteries of
the future. In the, lives of many the
yeor has proved a memorable one, while
in those of ethers it has been marked with
special events. The hopes of one
hove reached fruition, the aspirations of
a tether have fallen short of success.
And thus the last day of December will
bung alike pleasant and sad memories.
1 here is a lesson to be drawn from the
eltee af every year that- may well teach
ue of the opening -of the new one. It is
by deriving profit from the past that we
Can improve the future. If we have
undertaken enterprises during the pres
ent year that have proved unsuccessful,
we can now, on looking bacje over the e
the ground, see more clearly what our a
rnietake was or wherein we failed, and a
by having uudergone such experiences e
we are by far the better off. 1.Ve have t
been taught lessons which we might
otherwise never have learned, and in e
our future undertakings the great va1e p
of them will be apparent to .us, if now
they yet seem unnecessary and i.mpro- - p
ductive of geed. There is a lesson in a

them in the proper light. So long as we in

year now rapidly drawing to a close, it , w

What the People say about the
Columbus Watches
-SOLD AT_
Papst's jewelry store,
No. 1 Campbell's Block, Seaforth.
To C. L. Papst, jeweller, Seaforth: Dear Sir:
I feel it my duty to tell you how pleased I •am
with the Columbus Watch I purchased from you
some eight months ago: it has kept time accur-
ately, beyond my most Sanguine expectations;
I fully believe it will not vary a minute iii
year ; it will run fully 36, hours with one wind-
ing; I have no hesitatiote in recommending it
to any person in iOed of a Watch as a correct
timekeeper; I tild not part with it for any
other make I kn v of. Yours truly, JACOB Mc -
Gas, retired far- ner. Egmondville, November
5th, 1886.
Mr. Papst, Jeweller, Seaforth. Sir: The Col-
umbus Watch that I purchased from you about
a year ago is a beautiful timekeeper, and I am
well pleased, as it has given me entire satisfac-
tion. I have had other watches, but found none
so good and perfect as the Columbus, which I
now wear. Respectfully-, PATRICK KEATING.
'C. L. Papst, Jeweller, Seaforth. Dear Sir:
The Columbus movement I purchased from you
some time ago, in a Boss filled case, is as repre-
sented, and I don't think there is any watch
made in the world that will keep better time, as
mine has never varied since I purchased it, and
I would tell everybody- to get a Columbus move-
ment when wanting a good watch. Yours truly,
Jona PARKER, Windsor, Ont.
C. L. Papst, Jeweller: When you said take the
Columbus watch if you want a timekeeper, I
fel a little indifferent, but I must say my °pin -
was agreeably changed, as I can find no
netter watch as a timekeeper than the Colum-
bus ; so say I, take the Columbus movement
every time. Truly yours, L. MISRPHY. October
28th, 1886. ,
C. L. Papst, Esq.: The Columbus watch which
you reeommended nie to take, is a first-class
tiinekeeper, and I think there is no better. I
am well :satisfied with my bargain. ROBERT
