It is said that the practice of the wife Itsawntng the husband's nae at marriage originated from. a ,Roman custom and.became the common cus- tom after the woman occugatitin. Thus Julia and Octavio, married to Pompey and CU•ero, were called by the Romans Julia of Pompey and Oc- tavia of Cicero, and in Etter tenses married worsen in most European countries signed their ;(arses in the sanait manner, but omitted the of. Against this view may mentioned entioned that during the sixteenth and even the beginning of the seventeenth Century the usuage seems doubtful, since we find Catherine. Parr sti. signing herself after she had been twice married, and we always hear' of Lady Jane Gray (not: Dudley) and, Arabella Stuart (not Seymour). Sonne persons think that the custom originated from the scriptural teaching gnat husband and wife are one.

When the stove pipe season has pass- ed, and the bruises and abrasions of football are forgotten, when the mo- ther-in-law joke is so; well worn that - its further use has been tabooed, then does mankind tarn to the dude for amusement; for the dude is a large tangibility, and he has his uses. Amus- ing the gamin is one. Good News says that he was walking along the streets and met a little boy who asked him the time. "Ten minutes to nine," says the dude. "Well," says the boy, "at nine o'clock get your hair cut," and he took to his heels and ran, the dude after him, when, turning a cor- ner, the dude carne in contact with a policeman, nearly knocking him down. "What's up?" said the policeman. The dude, very much out of breath. said: "You see that young 'archin running along there? He asked me the time. hild. I told him ten minutes to nine, and he said, "At nine o'clock get your hair cut." "Wil," says the policeman, "what are you running for? You've eight minutes more yet." A Good Showing: The following in reference to the Do- minion Life Assurance Company is clipped from The Bulletin, one of the leading Insurance and financial journals in Canada, and one which can be 'relied upon as good authority:— "The year 1893 was another twelve months of good thiugs for the Dominion Life Insurance Company. The card in this issue shows that not only has steady progress been made in the amount of busi- ness in force, the number of policies issued, amount „of premiums, interest, •and_ gross assets, from year to year from the com- pany's birthi n .1888, to present date, but that the death claims have been few . and small in a remarkable degree, showing l/cssible "good luck" but positive careful &election of risks. The total cash income of the year 1893 amounted to 543,830.07; the death claims only 52,000; groes assets $139,005.7.5, and what is remarkable in so young a company is that it has a surplus of 84,300.00 over all liabilities, capital stock paid up included. It is a very hand- some showing and one that does great credit to the management." R. D. Stan - or ley, general agent for Huron and Perth CLIIlIATICINFLUENCE ON HEALTH.

In welding together into noble form, whether in the book of Genesis, or in the Psalms, or in the boob. of Job, or elsewhere, the treat conceptions of men acting under earlier inspiration, whether in Egypt, or Chaldea, or India, or Persia, the compilers of our sacred books have given to humanity a possession ever becoming more and more precious; and modern science in substitut- ing a new heaven and a new earth for the old—the reign of law for the reign of oaprioe, a` id' the idea of evolution for that of creation—has added and is steadily ad- ding a new revelation divinely inspired. WHY HOOD'S WINS. President Lincoln said, "You cannot fool the are two quick to recognize realle a second tmerit or lack of it, and cling only to those things which they find to be what is claimed for them. It is especially gratifying that the sale of Hood's Sarsaparilla increases most rapidly in_ those sections where it is best known. The inference is plain. Hood's Saran - ilia has proven that it possesses genuine merit. It maintains a high standered, which others cannot even approach. It is the people's favorite blood -purifying and building up medicine, and is more popular this. year than ever before. All this be- cause Hood's cures. WHO JOKES, PAYS. The Emperor Nicholas of Russia was in the habit of travelling about incognito', ac- companied only by one of his generals, in the diIligence.

Instead of punishing bis conjugal neglect by the loss of seven years of contributions, the magistrate ordered the authorities to repay the full sum, "Bacteria do not occur in the blood or in the tissues of a healthy living body, either of roan or the lower animals." So Gays the celebrated Dr. Koch. ,Other dootors say that the best medicine to render the blood perfectly pure and healthy is .flyer's Sarsaparilla. It is good to hear that Mr Laurier's lofty and eloquent appeal to -the people of Cana- da against intclerance and race strife, and for brotherliness and patriotism, is finding its way to'the hearts of the people of On- tario. Never was an appeal more timely made. Mr Laurier is a party leader, and his address. was delivered on a party occa- sion. It was rot, therefore, free from par- tisan sentiments, but these were all of the better and higher kind, and the greater part of the speech w1.s so disinterested and lofty in tone that it is clear that the speak- er, in his earnest and patriotism, was con- sidering his country's needs rather than those of his party. --Montreal Witness.

"Then, is there no way acroas?" "No—only through the water!" "Well, I'll give you 10 rubles if 3 ou'Il carry me over."

The peasant stood still in perplexity. "Five hundred rubles to carry me to the bang!" "Eight hundred rubles to drop him!" The peas- ant began to slip him off his back, but the general clutched him tightly and tcried; "A thousand rubles— ---you! to put me on the bang!"

JAPANESE TYPES. 1 There are two totally distinct types in -- 1Japan, which way almost bo said to be each other's opposites. The first, which the Japanese themselves call the Chineestl or Lorean, is the more common. Those belonging to it have round faces, Hat noses, full cheeks, rather thick lips—very pretty ones often—and very good white teeth. Those belonging to the second, or true Jap• anese type, have long and, comparatively pale faces, noses arched like'Ybe beak of a bird, thin lips, large eyes with not very strongly marked eyebrows, teeth mostly good, always very white, but often long and irregular. This is the aristocratic type, which when at its best is really worthy of admiration. To be called handsome' a Japanese must belong to it,. whilst those of the Chinese cast of countenance aft never more than pretty. Strange to say, the moral character of the sections of the community differs as much as does their appearance. I have noticed that, as a general rule, those with Chinese faces are gay, laughing and rest- less, full of careless good humor, whilst the others, are silent, indifferent, melancholy. sometimes even dismal.

Canada' e•;cpatu.pearffive .tildes as much hay to Greht' itaiif' at year •aleshe did the year before. We are not sure that she is to be congratulated on the extra- ordinary increase in this branch of her trade. Those who have made a study of the science of agriculture agree in saying that to grow hay for sale is one of the most uneconomical eLbusinesses for the farmer who owns or hopes wn his own land. Hay takes a great deal out of the soil whicb is not easy to return to it again quickly, unless the hay be fed to animals on the farm. If fed to cows, and the product shipped in the shape of cheese,some valuable elements will be exported that will need to be return - ern if iu the shape of butter, very little, in- deed, is lost. 'Butter,' said it prominent agricnitnrist, 'is almost pure sunshine, and of sunshine a Canadian farm need not be parsimonious.' It is to be hoped that as the years go on the farmers of Quebec and C..:tario, and of all the Dominion, will seek the greater pgoflts that lie in the conversion of grass into butter and cheese for export, and will become more and more reluctant to impoverish their farms for the compara- tively small profits which can be obtained from the sale of bay, a profit which is rather a realization of the eapit'tl contain- ed- in the land, than a return in the shape of interest, which leaves the country.—Mon. treat Witness. «EurEF IN Six Hotrns.—Uletressung Hid ney and Bladder diseases relieved in six hours by the "NEty GREAT SOUTH AMER/CAN KIDNEY CURE." nice -mew remedy is a great surprise and delight, to physicians on account of its exceed o,g promptness in re• having pain in the bladder, kidneys, back and every part of the urinary passages in male or female.
