beer Of which the monkeys are passiOnatelv
fond. Aware of this. the natives go to the
parts of the forest frequented by the mon
keys, and set on the ground calabashes full
Of the liquor As soon as the monkey sees
it and tastes it, he utters loud cries of JOY,
that soon attract bis comrades. Then the
orgie begins, and in short time they show
all degrees ofintoxication. Then the negroes
appear. The few monkeys that come too
late to get "fuddled" escape. The drinkers
are too far gone to distrust the negroes, but
apparently take them for large specimens
Of their own species. When negro takes
one by the hand to lead him off, the nearest
monkey will cling to the one that thus finds
support, and cndeavor 10 g off also. An
other will grasp at him, and so on, until the
negro leads staggering line of ten or fifteen
monkeys. When finally brought to the vii

House and Garden.

vcnturcd to sayat Halifax the other even
ing, that | had understood from scholars that
the best translation Of those divine words,
''In my Fathers house are many mansions, "
was this, "In my fathers house are many
rooms" If that is Sd, We get fresh truth
from this text, because it tells Us Of one
great home, with a great many different
rooms, each room opening into the other, the
children living in the room they ike best,
and letting the rest live quietly in the others.
Your Methodist prefers to live in a noisy
room he likes to be where there is a great
racke5. Your Calyinist prefers to live IN
rather shady room: he does not like over
much of the pure sunny light of heaven.
Your Unigersalist likes the sun blazing night
in through the windows all the time, and he
will not have any curtain down 10 hide it
away. They say the Unitarian prefers
rather cool room. The Quaker wants a
quiet room, and Brother Spurgeon over
thcrc-well, they say he prefers the bath
room. We must understand, dear friends,
we cannot make men or women Other than
they arc. You may tell a man who is a
Methodist that ne ought to be ashamed of
himself, that be ought TO come to the Unita-
rian meeting, that it is a disgrace to man
with a great level head to be a Methodist
he does not understand you, and he is not go
ing to be anything else than he is unless
vision comes TO him, as it has come TO some
that know Of, and shows him that he cannot
stay where be is any longer and then he
has to say, ''If thy presenes 90 not with me,
carry me not up hence" But the presence
gees with him, and he goes.
Now, there is one thing more | want to
say. While We have this great heart with
regard to other denominations, that docs not
mean that we are for a moment to neglect
the great privilege of being ourselves Unita-
rians. Of being pioneers in every way We can
in this great movement upward toward the
perfected man on the earth. When YOU 90

he wants is that the fruit should taste accord
Ing to its nature, that an apple should be a
real apple and grape a real grape. So
say that we. growing in this great garden Of
God, are no better for being Unitarians, and
tasting at the same time very strongly of
Orthodoxy. We want the real favor of
Unitarianism right down TO the heart. That
is the sort that the Lord approves best.
Though, as we walk down vistas of this
garden of God. we shall see that some how

branches of the apple tree, and the plum

The World gives an extract fr0m q Kan
sas paper on the death Of Satank, an Indian
chief, sentenced to death by hanging. for
some depredatiOns. The Indian hated to die
the death Of a dog, and when in the wagon
on his way to the place of execution set upon
his guards and wounded one. lie was sum
marily shot down. The rest Is best told in
the extract
\ carbine bullet broke his right wrist, and
two or three more tore through his old red
blanket. lie grinned and clenched his teeth
and still tried to press back the lock with
his wounded hand, glaring on his tormcutors.
\ more carefully aimed carbine lodged bull
let in his head, and with ringing whoor he
fell back IN the wagon, covered with his own
blood. \ messenger sent back to the fort
met on officer with a squad Of men approach
ing, the firing having been heard. lnquir-
ing what was the matter. the messenger re-
Piled that, 'Old Sltank got on the rampage
and they had 10 shoot him. Wen throw
him out Of the wagon, said the officer you
don t want to tote him to Texas Saauk
was accordingly tossed out in the dusty road,
and the trtin went on. Hardly a glimmer
of life rems ned in the resolute old savage,
hut that spark he used in preparing himself
for bis reception into the happy hunting
grounds. Wrilhing with pain, covered with
blood and dust. he twisted his body some
distance from the road and party from the
fort that went out several hours afterwari
found it decently composed with head and
feet due east and west, according to the 4bo-
riginal idea Of dec0rous dissolution.
This account of brutality and barba1ism
in a United States officer with i1rtitudc and
decency in a savage, is singulariy enough
