"Then why complain dear bird Has not
Providence bestowed on you the qualities which
thou valuest more than all the gaudy adorings
you admire. And art thou discontinued still"
A tear started in the eye of the dove, at this
mild rebuke of her guardian spirit, and she
promised never to complain.
The beautiful GIRL who had entered into the
story with deep and tender emotion, raised her
fine blue eyes to meet her mothers gaze, and, as
they rolled upward, sullnscd with penltental
tears, she said in a sudden tone, with smile
like that assumed by all nature, when the bow of

A Parable for Ladies.

Naomi, the young and lovely daughter of Sa-
lathiel and Judeth, was troubled in spirit because
at the approaching feasts of trumpets, she would
be compelled to appear in her plain, undyed
stole; while some Of her young acquaintance
would appear in blue and purple and fine linen
of the land of Egypt Her mother saw the
gloom that appeared on the face of the lovely
girl, and, taking her apart, related to her this
parable.NA dove thus made her complaint tC
the guardian of the feathered tribe:
liking genius, why is it that the hoarse voiced
strutting peacock spreads its gaudy train to the
sun, dazzling the eyes of every behoder witt
his richly FURNISHED neck, and royal crown, t.
the astonishmcnt of every passer-by, whilst |
in my plain pumage, am overlooked and forgot
ten by all? The ways kind genius, seem no
to be equal towards those under thy care ant
protection"
The genius listened to her complaint and thu
replied;
81 will grant you train similarin richness tt
that of the gaudy bird you seem to envy? ant
shall demand of thee one condition in return"
"What is that" eagerly inquired the dove
overjoyed at the prospect of possessing villa
eemed to promise so much happiness

There were Giants in those DAYS."

Professor Silliman, in one of his lectures,
mentions the discovery of an enormous animal
OF the lizard tribe, measuring eighty feet in
length, from which he infers that all animals
have degenerated IN siza; and this suggestion
IS fortified by reference to the history of giants
in oden time, It appears from the list furnish
ed by the Professor that we of the present day
are mere Tom Thumbs" when compared with
the huge Municipalities an antiquity. Here is
the list:
The giant exhibited in Roucn in 1745, meas
ured over eight feet
Gorabus saw girl who was ten feet high
The body of Grestus was eleven leet and a
half high!
The giant Gabara, brought from Arabia 10
Rome, under Claudias Cesar, was near ten feet
Funnam, who lived in the time of Eugene IL,
measured eleven feet and half high.
The Chevalier Scorg, in his voyage to the
peaks of Tenerfe, found in one of the caverns
of That mountain the head of Guance, which
had eighty teeth, and it was supposed that his
body was not less than fifteen feet long
The giant FeTagus, slain by Orlando, neph-
ew to Charlemagne, was eighteen feet high
In 1914, near ST. German, was found the
tomb of the giant Isoret, who was twenty feet
high
In 1870, near Rouen, they found skeleton,
whose skull held a bushd Of corn, and whose
body must have been eighteen feet long.
Paterus saw at Lucerne, the human bones Of
a subject nineteen feet long!
The giant Buart was twenty-five and half
feet high; his bones were found in 1705, near
the banks of the river Moderit.
IU 1913, near castle in Dunphine, a tomb
was found thirty feet long, twelve wide and
eight high, on which was cut on a grey stone the
words Keutolochus Rex" The skeleton was
found entire twenty-five and a half feet long
ten feet across the shoulders, and FIVE feet deeE
from the breast bone to the back
Near Mazarine, in Sicily, in 1916, was fount
the skeleton of a giant thirty feet high Hi:
head was the size of a hogshead! and each o
hig teeth weighed FIVE ounces.
Near Palermo, in Sicily, in 1913, was foun
the skeleton of giant thirty feet long, and a

A Tame Fox.

1t has always been supposed by most moral
lists that fox could not be tanned, but in one in
stance at least Raynard has been known to be as
well beloved and attached to his master, as any
of his canine cousins.
A farmer in Connecticut dug out of its ken
mel very young fox and took it home. There
was about the house cat with family Of young
kittens, and it was decided to destroy the objects
of Pussy's particular care, and constrain her to
adopt nurseling which she evidently regarded
as an interloper and an enemy. 1t was some
time before his relationship could be adoped,
but finally it was done, and the cat bestowed as
evident marks of maternal care and attachment
upon her adopted child, as she had previously
upon her own offspring.
In few weeks the fox became sufficiently
grown to sport with his foster mother, and really
! ludrcous were the antics he made. Sometimes
he would worry the cat to that degree, that she
had to climb the weil-curb to keep out of his
wav. At such times he would sit by the hour
watching her very intently and when she ventu
red down, it was in evident fear. Lucky wa!
she if she reached an open window before HI
had seized her with his teeth. When she me
with such disaster, claws were put in active ex
ercise, while her cries complained OF harsh treat
ment Not content with thus worrying his fe
line nurse, Raynard tried to royster with tn
young poultry about the door, when ganders
gobblers, and ROSTERS with their no less pugna
cious mates set upon him in earnest, feather
and fur flew about, and battle royal ensued
was evident that no quarter was to be given
asked. Teeth, beak, spur and wing, did thei
effective work, till Raynard the fox had to max
good his retreat to the great exultaton OF his an
tagonists.
From that day he concluded that he wOul
leave them alone, if they would him, and the
on the other hand arrived at as imilar determine
ton.
He had freedom to range where he pleased
He gave manifestations Of regard particular
for his master, whom he always accompane
when he went abroad He followed in the flu
row when he powed, and amused himself
catching crickets and other insects Sometime
he would 90 down to a shallow pond and anus
himself by trying to catch little fish.
Under the house was hole through which
