~ Bear and the Tea.KettIe.

The Gait reporter says: "The bears
of Kamskatka live chiefly on fish, which
they procure for themselves from the
rivers "A few years ago the fish became
veryscarce Emboldened by the f. inc
and consequent hunger, the bears, in
stead Of retiring TO their dens, wander
cd about, and sometimes entered the
villages. On a certain occasion one of
them found the outer door of house
open, and entering it, the gate aeci-
dentally closed after him, The woman
Of the house had Just placed kettle of
boiling watert tn the court Brnin smelt
it, but burnt bis nose. Provoked at the
pain, he vented all his fury on the tea
kettle. He folded his arms around it,
pressed II withhis whole strength against
bis breast to crush it, but this Of course
only burnt him the more, The horrible
growing which the rage and painforced
upon the poor animal now brought the
ueighbors to the spot, and bruin, by q
few shots, was put ont of his misery.
To this day, however, whenever any
body ihiures himself by his own vio-
Ie1co. the people Of tho village call him
tho bear and the tea-kettle." I"

The excavations at Pompeii are going
on with an activity stimulated by the
important discoveries made at almost

A TALK ABOUT DRESS.

So long as aorong exists, from the per-
version of right, so long will moral and
social evils be in existence, and the advo-
Gates of new basis for the principles of
society, find a cause for work. The con-
sideration Of the great evils which threat
en- our race, [ leave to mightier minds
than mine. But there are certain things
in our domestic economy that seem to me
subjects for earnest and serious thought /;
evils which we as women have to do with
either to eradicate or to encourage in
growth. [ mean in regard to dress, as it
affects our health We know that health
is boon most priced when lost, but how
few of us know how to secure it. To you
girls am going to talk most especially.
[ may shock you, but I think a little
mental electricity may serve to wake you
up. In how many Of our prevailing fash
ions do we see the least regard for the
