We are treated to a picture of the land
leech, a ferocious little animal, that at
tacks both man and beast at every chance

COURTESY TO A SYRIAN PRIEST.

The Syrians are noted for kindness
to their priests, but occasionally sharp
tongue and quick temper seek out weak
joints even in priestly armor, as the fol-
lowing story from De Forests Oriental
Acquaintance, testified.
A certain priest named Aasa Shedoody
was famous for his glut,ony, as priests
are apt to be. One day, being in appe-
tite as usual, he came upon poor peasant
woman who was baking bread at an out
of-door oven by the way-side.
God bless your morning, daughter
said the holy and hungry man, stopping
short at the sight of the thin, fresh
loaves.
May He prosper your morning good
father replied the woman. Honor the
baking. Please eat some hot bread
God increase your bounty, daughter,
mumbled the priest, with his mouth full.
And as the last morsel went down bis
throat be added The bread is good
God make you always pleased with
u.s. said the fattered woman. Take
another loaf
A blessing on your hands, daughter!
calculated the man, finishing the second
loaf, and reaching for third one.
Your hands be blessed, father
an glad you have come to-day, said the
alarmed housekeeper, as ste saw heI
family store disappear SO rapidly into the
capacious stomach of her spiritual shep
} herd. And so eating and compliment
sat cheek-by- -jowl, until the priest hat
swallowed the whole baking, except /
} single loaf. He then rose, excusinI
; himself from eating any more BY reasol
of an engagement.
But sad the woman, your reverence
2 will bless the baking before you go
Certainly, daughter. o Thou wh
g didst multiply the few small loaves uni
! thousands were saliaied and baskets G
e fragments remained
Lucky for Him you were not there
burst in the indignant woman. 70
would have put him to the blush for wal

THE VAMPIRE.

Captain Sieadman. in bis Narrative
OF Five years Expedition against the
Revol,ed Negroes of Surrinam, relates
that, on waking about four o'clock one
morning in his hammock, he was extre-
mely alarmed at weltering in congealed
blood, and without feeling any pain what
ever.
The mystery was, continued Capt 5.
that had been bitten by the Vampire
or Spectre of Guiana. which is also call
ed the flying dog of New Spain, and by
the Spaniards, Perovahdor. This is 40
other than bat Of monsirous size, that
sucks the blood from men and cattle
while they are fast asleep, even seme-
times til they die. and as the manner in
which they proceed IS truly wonderful,
shall endeavor 10 give distinct account
of it.
Knowing by instinct that the person
that they intend to attack is in sound
slumber, they generally alight near the
/ feet, where. while the creature continues
/ tanning with his enormous wings, which
keeps one cool, he bites piece out of
the tip of the great toe, SO very small
indeed that the head Of a pin could scar
cely be received into the wound, which
is consequently not painful yet through
this orifice he continues to suck the blood
until he is obliged TO disgOrge. He then
begins again, and thus continues suck
ing and disgorgihg until he is scarcely
able to fy; and the suffered has often
been known to sleep from time to eter-
nifty
Cattle they generally bite in the ear,
but always where the blood flows spon-
taneously. Having applied tobacco ashes
as the best remedy, washed the gore
from myself and hammock. | observed
sey eral small heaps of CONCEALED blood
all around the place where had lain
on the ground; on examining which,
the surgeon Judged that ! had lost at
least twelve or fourteen ounces during
the night.

A CuILD's ArrKAL.-A mother Of
this city came to the Rev. NJ. Guinness,
as an anxious inquirer after the way OF
life. lie asked her wha, made the fret
impression upon her mind, when she re-

Her little girl Of only Eve years was
dying. The mother was weening wiIh
the little one folded 10 her heart. She
looked upward, and fixing ber gaze right
on that dear mothers eye, said with the
lisping simplicity Of her little heafi

No COMPLIMENTS IN PRAYER.-We
have heard some prayers which were
designed to affect the hearer rather than
to reach heaven. The following cbarac-
teristic anecdote of John Randolph is a
keen rebuke of tie practice:
In one of his spells of repentance and
sickness, he was visited by a minister
who at his request prayed for and with
him. The minister began on this wise
Lord, our friend is sick. Thou knowest
how generous he was to the poor, and
what eminent services he has rendered
to his country, and how he is among the
honored and great men Of the earth
Stop, stop said the impatient Ran
dolpb,-'no more Of such stuff, else th'
Lord will damn Us both

A NEGLECTED DUTY.-Riding in the
ears from New York to Philadelphia,
amid the noise, and confusion, and hustle
heard the name OF Jesus mentioned.
All, thought !, will this conversation
continue when the cars stop and the
racket ceaseS | waited 10 see. The
conversation still went on, and | felt
grateful for the lesson which the example
iaugh; me. How many Christian trav-
ellers are ashamed to let il be known on
whose side they are enlisted, even though
they do not openly deny their Master in
the presence OF Strangers

FACTS ABOUT TUE KoRAN.-The
Koran was written about A. ID. Clio. Its
general aim was TO unite the professors
of idoIatry and the Jews and Christians
in the worship Of one God who Sc unity
was the chief point inculcaled-under
certain laws and ceremonies, exacting
obedience to Mahomet as the prophet.
Ii was written in the koreish Arabic,
and this language, which certainly pos
sessed every fine quality, was SAID to be
that of paradise. Mahomet asserted
that the Koran was revealed to him,
during period Of twenty-three years,
by the Angle Gabriel.
The style of the volume is beautiful,
fluent, and concise, and W lere the majesty
and, attributes of God are described, it
is sublime and magnificent. Mahomet
admitted the divine mission both of
Moses and Jesus Christ. According TO
Gibbon, the leading article of faith which
Mahomet preached is compounded of an
eternal truth and a necessary fiction,
namely, that there is only one God. and
that Mahomet Is the apostle of God.
The Koran was translated into Latin in
lIl43. and into English and other Europe
an languages about 1908. It is a rhap-
sody of 5000 verses, divided into ia
sections.
