ing: On Thursday, team belonging
to Bowers, Pratt & Co., heavily load
ed with iron, while passing through

the snow. The humane driver, in
stead Of lashing his horses, procured
shovel and cleared away the snow
from the runners, then stepping up to
the shaft horse he, said, Now, Billy,
we are in bad fix; do all you can,
will you?' The horse, apparently
understanding the appeal, rubbed his
head against the driver, as if in as
sent. The team was successfully star
ted without a blow being struck. A
well known gentleman in State street,
having witnessed the scene, was so
pleased that on returning to his Office,
he Immediately addressed note to

bill, with request that it be given
a to the driver who treated his horse
so kindly. Boston Traveller.

MEDIEVAL TRAVELS IN CHINA
Some ancient books of travel in China
have lately been republished in Lon
don. They contain very curious mar
ratives. Friar Oderic, who spent 3
years-from 1929 to 1881 in North
ern China-sayS the Khan's palace at
Pekin was of vast size and splendor,
supported by twenty four columns of
gold, and that its walls were hung
with skins Of red leather, said to be
the finest in the world In the mid
die of the palace there was great
jar, more than two PAGES in height,
entirely formed of precious stone
called merdacas, and so fine that its
price, he was told, exceeded the value
of four towns. 1t was hooped around
with gold, and fringed with network
of large pearls. Conduits from the
palace court filled it with drink, and
beside it were many golden goblets
for the use of those who thirsted.-
When the great lord,' he continues,
wishes to make an entertainment, he
has fourteen thousand barons, with
coronets on their heads, waiting upon
him at the banquet; and every one of
them has a coat on his back such that
the pearls on it alone are worth some
fifteen thousand forms. In short the
Court is truly magnificent, and the
most perfectly ordered that there is in
the world, with barons, gentlemen,
servants, secretaries, Christians, idol
aters and Turks, all receiving from
the Court what they have need of. -
In the Khan's menagerie were horses
with six legs, double headed ostrich
es, giants twenty feet high, and "wo-
men all hairy with long gray hair"
Ibu Batuta, who visited the celes-
tial empire twenty years later, de-
scribes a Chinese magician as fol-
lows:
He took a wooden ball with sew
eral holes in it, through which long
thongs were passed, and laying hold
of one of these, slung it into the air.
: 1t went so high that we lost sight of
it altogether. There now remained
only little of the end of thong in
the conjurer's hand, and he desired
one of the boys who assisted him to
lay hold of it and mount He did so,
climbing by the thong, and We lost
cirht of him alSo The oonjurar tban
: called to him three times, but getting
: no answer, he snatched up knife, as
if in a great rage, laid hold OF the
e thong, and disappeared also. By and
a by he threw down one of the boys
Y hands, then a foot, then the other hand
e and the other foot, then the trunk, aud,
+ last of all, the head Then he came
). down himself, all putting and painting,
a and with his clothes all bloody; but
f presently he took the lads limbs, laid
o them together in their places, and gave
o a kick, when, presto there was the
h boy, who got up and stood before
l. him.

Drops--An Allegory.
BY REV. A. C. THOMAS.

l stood upon the sounding shore
In still and dreamy awe,
And gazed upon the Ocean wide
In its harmony of law,
The ailegory touched and claimed
The water.world saw.
Far ont beyond the hoary surf
The heavy mystery lay,
And when I asked, Whence contest thou
- Inquire in yonder bay
The waves gave answer, and turned
My footsteps up that way.
Tracing the land-locked narrowing waste,
Its sources to descry,
asked a river whence arose
The floods broad sweeping by,
And wild cascades with joy sent forth
A chorus of reply.
asked a creek from whence it came
On-shouting to its rest;
And voices from unnumbered scenes
In wealth of beauty dressed,
Proclaimed that gleeful rivulets
Were flowing to its breast.
Through many valley green pressed,
Winding among the hills,
And when l asked a rivulet
What its own bosom fills,
l listened, but could only hear
The trickling of the rlls.
By fowery margin Of a wood
When fancy dropped her wing,
asked a rill from whence it came,
But it would only sing,
And, seeking for the music-heart,
l found It in a spring.
Alone and silent, in that dell
I bent the reverent knee,
And drawing moss and leaves aside
As gently as could be
saw the water bubbling up
That forms the mighty sea.
And all around heard strain
OF angels in the air,
Bidding my inmost thought behold
The child heart symboled there's
And if I lifted hands and voice
In fervency of prayer:
Great God, who holdcst in thy palm
The ocean as it rolls,
And whose alI-searching, spirit will
The stream of life controls,
o guide Alright the hidden drops,
The fountain in our sOuls

Those who climb highest in the
world are not always the happiest-
Genius and talent sometimes raise
men to such a giddy hight that they
find themselves above all earthly joys
and yet below all heavenly ones.
