During the school hours singing sometimes employ

Jane you have good voice, and you may lead the

She frightened up, and from that time her mind
seemed more active Her lessons were attended to- and
she made steady progress One day. the teacher was

"WeI, Jane" said She you are getting on very

Il do not know why it is," replied Jane.
Il know what she told me the other day." said her
companion who was with her.

Yes there was the secret-she was encouraged. She
felt she not dull in everything she had learned self
respect and thus she encouraged to selfimprove

their counenances. had been present not long before
at an execution in France which thousands had assem-

with the reports had heard of the indifference of the
natives to human life asked the driver of the wagon
If such silence USUAL and learned from him, half
native himself the reason The Arabs are followers OF
Mahome and believe that their bodies, after death, will
by means of the tuft of hair they leave their other
wise shaven heads be conveyed by their prophet into
paradise Now the head, which is completely separated
from the trunk by the action of the guotine, can alone
according to their belief be placed IN paradise and as
the body must be left earth, they conclude what
perfectly natural seeing the nature OF their paradise
that this arrangement will not contribute much to the
owners qualification have since heard that when the
native chiefs executed man by cutting Oft his head
the executioner invariably left it attached to the body

brought on the scaold together, but led up at

Indifferent to his fate So rapidly he bound to tht
plank and thrust under the axe that had barely time
to insert the plate-hoder and get the instantaneous
