Love op Pupil fob ,Tjeacheb.—Passing one of the city schools yesterday, we listened to the scholars singing "On, how I love my teacher dear." • There was one boy with a voice like a tornado, who was so enthusiastic that he emphasised every word, and roared " Oh, how I lore my teacher dear " with a force that left no doubt of his affection. Ten minutes after,' that boy had been.stood on the floor for putting shoemaker* .wax on his teacher's chair, got three demerit marks for drawing a picture of her with red chalk on the back of an atlas; been well shaken for putting bent pins in another • boy's chair, scolded for whistling out: loud, sentenced to stay after school for drawing ink moustaches on his face and blacking another boy's nose, and sonndly whipped for slapping 339. chewed paper balls up against the ceiling, and throwing a big one into a girl's ear. You cant believe half a boy says when he sings.—Ameri- : can paper. - .•• ' ■-•"'' "■ ■'■- >:~ A Soul Tbagedt.—He led - her to the "altar—-it was in a Winsconsin churchrbut just as she was.' about to plight her virgin faith, she saw a discarded lover in the gallery, gazing: down upon her with a mixture of sorrow and anger extremely piteous to behold. She did what she could under such embarrassing circumI stances—she fainted away." Remorse and anguish had very properly taken possession of her soul; for she had on at the moment of collapse some l.SOOdol. worth of jewels which that wretched man in the gallery had given her. Still, don't suppose that she gave up the bird in her lily-white hand."' They brought ker to,, and made them one.—- New York Trjbune. When is a Eiveb Like aDqob.—« When it has a lock and quay.
