LL RON STOUT, ii Da 2 A ROT [From * Douglas Jerrold’s Wit."] St. Patty.—St. Patty was an orphan, and dwelt cot with a sour old aunt. tte 1» it being bitter cold, that three hunters came and craved for meat and drink. Pack!” said the sour aunt, ‘neither meat nor drink have yehere’”’ “Neither meat nor drink.” said Patty, “but something better.” And she ran and brought some milk. some eggs, and some flour. and beating them up, poured the batter in the pan. ‘hen she took the pan and tossed the cake over; and then a robin alighted ut the window, and kept singing these words— One good tura deserves another. And Patty tossed and tossed the cakes: and the hunters ate their fill departed. And the next day the hunter baron cawe in state to the co! and trumpets were blown, aud the heralds cried— Oae good turn deserves another; in token whereof Patty became the baron’s wife, and —— Were eaten on Shrove Tuesday ever alter Sr. Salty —St. Sally, from her childhood, was known for her innermost love of truth. It was said of her that her heart was in a erystal shrine, and all the world might see it. More- over, when other women denied, or strove to hide their age, St. Sally said. “I am five-and- thirty.’ Whereupon her next birthday. St. Sally's husband, at a feast of all their friends, gave her a necklace of six-and-thirty opal beads; and on every birthday added a bead, until the beads amounted to four-seore and one. And the beads seemed to act as acharm: for St. Sally wearing the sum of her age about her neck, age never appeared in her face. Such, in the olden time, was the roward of simplicity and truth. Se. Betey —St. Betsy was wedded toa knight who sailed with Raleigh and brought home to- bacco ; and the knight smoked. But he thought that St. Betsy, like other fine ladies of the court. would fain that he should smoke out of doors, nor taint with ‘baceo-smoke the tapes- try. Whereupon the knight would seck his gerden. his orchard, and in any weather smoke sh Jore. Now it chanced as the knight smoked. St. Betsy came to him and said, “ y lord, pray ye cowe into the house.” And tze knight weut with St. Betsy, who took him into a newly-cedared room, and said, “I pray my lord, henceforth smoke here; for is it not a shame that you, who are the foundation and the prop of your house. should have no place to put your head into and smoke?’ And St. Betsy led bim to a chair, and with her own fia- & filled him a pipe; and from that time the night sat in his cedar-chamber and smoked hie weed. SM. Phillis —St. Phillis was a virgin of no- ble parentage, but withal as simple as any sbepherdess of curds and cream. She married a wealthy lord. and bad much pin-money. But when other ladies wore diamonds aud pearts, St. Phillis only wore a red and white rose in her b. Yet her pin-money brought the best ry in the happy eyes of those about her. St. Phillis was rewarded. She lived un- til fourscore, and still carried the red and white rose in her fuce, and left their fragrance in her memory. Se Phabe —St. Puw!e was married early to a willfal, but witha! a good-hearted husband. He was a merchant, and would come home sul- jen and sour from ‘change. Whereupon. after touch pondering, St. Phwbe mm her patience. set to work, and praying the while, made of dyed lambswool! « door-mat. And it chanced from that time, that never did the husband touch that mat that it didn’t clean his temper with his shoes, and he sat down by his Pho-be as mild as the lamb whose wool be had trod upon. Thus gentleness may make miraculous door-mats St. Norah.—&. Norah was a poor girl, and came to Eugland to service. Sweet-tempered and gentle. she seemed to love everything she spoke to, gm she prayed to St. Patrick that he would gi¥e her a good gift that would make her not proud. but useful; and St. Patrick, out of his own head, taught St. Norah how tu boil a potato—a sud thing. and much to be la- mented, that the secret has ceme down to so few. St Becky—A very good man was St Becky’s husband. but with his heart a little too much in his bottle. Port wine—red port wine—was his deiight, and his constant cry was—bee's wing. Now as he sat ti arbor, a wasp dropt into his glass, and the Wasp Was swallowed, stinging the man inward- ly. Doctors crowded, and with much ado the man was saved. Now St. Becky nursed her bushand tenderly to health, and upbraided him not; but she said these words, and they reformed him: “‘My dear, take wine, and bless your heart with it—but wine in moder- ation; else, never forget that the bee's wing of to-day becomes the wasp’s sting of to-mor- row. Se. Lily.—St. Lily was the wife of a poor man, who tried to support his family—and the ebildren were many—by writing books. But in those days it was not ag easy fora man to find a publisher as to say his paternoster. Many were the books that were written by the husband of St. Lily ; but to every book St. Lily gave at least two bubes. However. blithe as the cricket was the spirit that ruled about the bearth of St. Lily. And bow she heiped her helpmate’ She smiled sunbeams into his ink- bottle, and turned his goose-pen to the quill of adove' She made the paper he wrote on rg white as her name, and as fragrant as her soul And when folks wondered bow St. Lily man- aged so lightly with fortunes troubles, she al- ways answered. that sho never heeded them, for troubles were like babies, and only grew the bigger by nursing. St. Fanny —St. Fanny was a notable bouse- Mer house was a tewple of nestness Kings might have dined upon her staircase! dow ber great delight was to provide wil thiags evnilortable for ker husband. » hard-working merchant, much abroad, but loving his home. Now one night be returned tired and hungry, and, by some mischance, there was nothing for supper. Shops were shut; and great was the grief of St. Fann Taking off a bracelet of seed-pearl, she said: * 1d geve this ten times over for a supper tor my husband!” And every pear! straightway became an oyster; and St. Fanny opened—the husband ate—and lo! in every oyster « pearl xs big as a hazel nut; aud so was St. Fauny made rich for lite St. Dolly —Atan early ageSt. Dolly showed the sweetness of ber nature by her tender love for ber widowed father, a baker, dwelling at Pie corner, with w large family of little chil- dren. It chanced that with bad harvests brea! became 30 dear. that, of course, bakers were ruined by high prices. fhe miller fell upon Dolly's tather, and swept the shop with his golden thumb. Not a bed was left for the baker or his little ones. St. Dolly slept upon a tlour-sack, having prayed that good angels would help ber to help her father. Now sleep- ing. she dreamt that the oven was lighted. 2ud she felt, talling in a shower about her, raisin: currants, almonds, lemon-peel, and flour, with heavy drops of brandy hen in her dream she saw the fairies gather up the things that fell. and knead them into s cake. They put the cake into the oven, and dancing round and round, the fairies vanizhed crying: “ Draw the cake, Dotly—Dolly, draw the cake!” Aud Dolly awoke and drew the cake, and, be- hold, it was the first twelfth cake, sugared at the top. and bearing the images of Faith, Hope, and Charity. Now this enke, shown in the wiudow, came to the king's ear; aad the king boaght the cake, knighted the baker, and married volly to the grand faleoner, te whom she proved « taithful and loving wife, bearing hum a baker's dozen of lovely children St. Jenny —St Jenny was wedded to a very poor man; they had scarcely bread to keep them ; but Jenny was of so sweet a temper that even want bore a bright face, and Jenny al- ways smiled. In the worst seasons Jenny would spare crambs for the birds, and sugur fur the bees. Now it so happened that one au- tumo a storm rent their cot in twenty places apart; when, bebold, between the joists, from the basement to the roof, there was nothing bat honeycomb and honey—a little fortune for St. Jenny and her husband, in honey.
