Carrying Babies.

The Asiatic Indian woman carries her
baby in blanket hanging in front some
thing below the waist; the BeRgalese
woman, with the child astride low down
upon her left hip, and her left arm sup
porting its back. The figure seems quite
Indifferent as to the difficulties in this
style of carrying, which must be highly
artistic performance If done so cleverly
in reality.
The Egyptian woman carries hers / o a
stately manner, the child sitting astrlde
her shoulder, with its hands upon her
head, and without any clothing to speak
Of.
The Brazilian woman carries hers in a
somewhat similar manner, also in full
undress, it sitting astride her neck.
The Chinese baby is carried upright
upon the back, in blanket; and the
South African in bag in front, formed
by a blanket round the hips of the
mother.
The Lower Australian woman carries
hers by swinging it in blanket over one
shoulder upon her back; while the North
Australian woman carries hers bound
upon a board after the style of candy
models in confectionery stores.
The Lspland baby is carried in a
sled9e-shaped cot, made Of leather. 1t
seems to have been chucked in feet fore
most, and then a frame tied over the
opening for its face, whether to prevent
it from crawling out, or to keep the dogs
from kissing it, is more than can be i'm
agined.
The most unique style Of all is that OF
the Esquimaux woman. who wears wide,
hieh-top boots, and puts the baby, right
end foremost, down in the outside of one
of them, and doubtless, according to DR..
Kaues description Of her style, carrying
her cooking and eating utensils in the
other.
The North American woman carries
her papoose strapped to a board, and
that strapped upon her back by band
over the forehead.

met with misfortune which cost one OF
me party his life The party arrived in

around the fire, which had been built in
the cleft OF some large quartz rocks, and
Ill were soon fast asleep

movement startled the reptile, which old.

sleeping with him The snake passed
from his breast to his brothers face wbon
in a fatal moment, Henry Straley raisad

fierce rattle and loud cry from the hale
awakened boy, and the monster buried its
iangs in his right hand and second time
IN his cheek. There was a loud scream
from Henry as the poor boy Jumped to his
feet. while the snake glided from tha
blanket to large fiat rock near the EN-.

Poor young Straley was soon SUFFERING
the most intense agony. His brother. at
his request cut out a large part of the

hand, which was bathed in cold water
But nothing the Mortified young men could
do availed TO save the poor boy. He died
in less than two hours in the most terrible
agony. Had the party been supplied with
a plentiful supply of whisky his life might
have been saved, but they had none with
them. The body changed color within
three hours after the accident. The youno
men conveyed the corpse to Fort Steele
