not, are standing up for peace
and quiet, upon the day of cele-
bration, that day of noise and
jubilation. The memory with
them ever lingers, of broken
bones and flying fingers, and
mt and salve and healing mix-
tures, and saws and knives and
surgeons fixtures and screams
and groans and futile curses,
and nodding plumes aud mov-
ing hearses. And so the wise
reformer screeches for picnics
and denatured speeches, and
other joys that cannot maim us
amusements sane, that will not

our pleasures slowly; he'd have

snorting with quite a host of
wise old backers, a-scaring
folks with cannon crackers!—
