Virginia Houghton as Nell Armroyd, Job's err- ing but remorse-stricken wife, was received with cordial and deserved approval.

The young lady, who was deeply interested in the pathetic history of the hero and heroine, could not refrain from tears.

Old England mourns the heroes orave,— Her sons who sleep in a soldier's grave. Still beats the Nation's heart with pride, To think how bravely some have died. The summer sun was shining upon the Transvaal plains, As lameson's little band marched on towards Johannesburg. No warning cry was there to tell o( the enemy so near ; They marched along, six hundred strong, with hearts unknown to fear. Nor dreamt the Boers were there. Face to face with death, and fearless, they the fateful Boers defied,— Carved a story full of glory by the gallant stand they made,— Won for Jameson greater glory, more than he had e'er attainecT.— Bravely kept the Old Flag's honor,— kept it glor- ious and unstained. The gallant band were fighting all through that fearful night. Hemmed in by foes on every hand, till they were forced to yield. The last shot fired, with strength o'ertas''':d, the dying all around,— They yielded, where each noble boy had bravely stood his ground— The gallant soldier boys. And may He who always loves all brave deeds hereuelow. To the Mothers of those heroes His grace and comfort show. For they died like British heroes, never yielding till the last: The glorious Flag of a thousand years, its honour they held fast. J. C. LOCKHART. London, Ont. •# Mr. Sutherland Edwards tells the following story of Vivicr, the famous horn-player, who was an incorrigible practical jnker. On one occasion. In an ou)nll)us, he alarmed his fellow passengers by pretending to be mad. He indulged in th<- wildest gesticulutions, and then, as if in despair, drew a pistol from his pocket. The conductor wa« called upon to interlere, and Vivier was on the point of l)eing disarmed, when suddenly he broke the pistol in two. handed halt to the con- ductor, and hei{an to eat the othe' nlf. It was made of chocolate. One business man met another In the street. The second man seemed downcast, and had a look as if he were somewhat ashamed of himself. " What is the matter ? " asked the first man. " Well, to put it brieflv," said the other, "1 have been speculating in stocks." " Indeed ? Were you a ' bull ' or a ' bear ' ? " "Neither— I was an ass." A boy walked into a merchant's office the other day in search of a situation. After being put through a catechism by the merchant, he was asked, " Well, my lad. and what is your motto ? " "Same as yours, sir," he replied ; "same as you have on your door, ' Push.' " He was engaged. Man overboard-" Help I Help!" Stranger—" Why don't yez swim ?" " I don't know how." " Be gorry, y've got an illigant chance to learn.' A man went to a solicitor, laid before him a case in dispute, and then asked him if he would undertake to win the suit. "Certainly," replied the solicitor, "I will readily undertake the case, We are sure to win." "So you really think it is a good case ? " "Undoubtedly, my dear sir. I am prepared to guaiantee you will secure a verdict in your favor." "Very good, sir ; I'm much obliged to you, but I don't think I'll go in for law this time ; for, you see, the case 1 have laid before you is my opponent's." Oyapaniiteed J. H.
