FACT roR NAruRALrsrs.-A Norwegian
fable satisfactorily accounts for the short tail
Of che bear. The bear, it seems, was once
met BY fox, who carried load Of ash, and
Who, 10 answer te the question how he had
obtained them, replied that be had caught
them BY angling. The bear expressed Do
sire TO know an art 90 useful when the fox
informed him that he had only 70 make .
hole in the Toe and insert his tail. "You
must stand long enough, and not mind IL il
hurt you little, (said tie friendly adviser
for sensation OF pain Ii . sure Sign that
you have bite. The longer the time the
more the fish. Nevertheless, when you have
. good strong bite, be SURF you pull oat."
The crsdulous bssr followed the instructions,
and kept bic tail 10 the hole until IL vs. FRO
sen fast. When he pulled, the end OF bis
tail came Oh; and hence the shortnsss Of the
sppendAge at the prssen. day.
REFLECTION yoR raE PEw.-The subjoiosd
statement 10 made by the corresposdsnt Of q
Bristol paper: "Selecting book Of common
prayer in . stationsr's shop in Bristol few
years ago, saw some prayer books having .
looking glass inserted in the inner side Of the

lies merely ~ the door Of some sntsrprising
bookseller. There 10, moreover, something
to be said for looking & lssses in ladies' pray
or books. IL 10 little better TO contemplate
the reflection Of ones own face ct church,
than 70 be looking about ut the reality Of
other faces. Besides, . young lady may
sometimes even make better use OF her eyes
BY employing them in looking glass than
