Some Curious Marriage Vows. A graduate of the University of Matrimony has lately published in Eng land a hand-book of marriage,in w hich he tells some amusing stories of mar- riage vows, He tells of a nervous bride groom who, confusiog the baptismal and marriage ceremonies, replied, when asked if he consented to take the bride for his-wife: “I renonnce them all”; fa Hampshire rustic, who, when given the ring, said sa@ig@ianly tO, the bride, “With my body I thee wash up, and with all my hurdle good I thee and thou”; of another who,when asked whether be would taxe bis partner to be a wedded wife, replied,with shame- ful indecision, Yes, Tia willie’; but td a mouch sight rather have her ister”; and of e Scotch lady who, on ens occasion of ber dau zhter 8 wea ding, was asked by ana old friend whether she might congratulate her on the event, and answered: “Yes, yes, upon the whole it is very satisfactory ; it is true Joanie hates her good man; but then ibeve’s —— a something !” -_- - The Wisdom of Jozh Billings.

While some people in America call | horses imported from France Normans, it isa fact that there is no breed in France called by that name by the Freach people; the name, Norman, therefore, is purely Ameri- can. The p ‘incipal breeds of France are known as Percherons and Boulanais, The Percherons are the most highly prized of ail French races, and ail departments of France go to the Perche for stallions to improve their local breeds. The Percheron stud book of France, published under the anthority of the French government, is the only stud book of draft horses that is or ever has been published in France, and now contains the pedigree of about 5,000 animals, Bas importers are Offering certificates from. France of Norman draft horses that may mislead some people who do not understand the French langaage ir believing these records of origio. Not one of them is- sued contains a pedigree. They are tarnished afthe request of Amvrican buyers by the secretary of one of the Preach age iculcural societ es, who say there is no inteutiou of pablishing them in stud book form, as they have uo pedigrees and are of no valus whatever. It is a well known fact that what e man gives for a horse over from $500 ‘o 3800 ~ th e price of a good grude—is pai i for pur ity of blood ; and where the seller is not able to vive thé reco: ded pedigree of the avima! sold as evidence of add itio~ = Value, be bas no right totfsk it, With these facts before bim, no intelli.
