A HEROINE AS an evidence that the
qualities of nerve and downright pluck
are not confined exclusively to the hero
ic men Of creation, there is herewith Of
fered the narration of a circumstance
wherein a young girl bore herself brave
iy under such trying circumstances as
would have severely tested the most
dogged determination of the genus iho.
mo. This young lady was at church,
when, during the sermon, she suddenly
became aware that something of crawl
ing nature was making an expeditions
journey up her leg. startled, as may
we'll be believed, she was for the nonce
bereft of the pawer of action, and there
forthwith chased each othes through her
rAind extremely lively and fearful appre-
tensions touching snakes, rats and
host Of disgusting creatures; but with A
determined effort she recovered her pres
ence of mind, and by the time the thing
had got short distance above her knee,
she clutched it through her dress with
a vice-like grip. and held on like
grim death. Since the first revel-
alton of the distressing circumstance,
she had not uttered q sound, nor given
any outward sign Of the mental torture
she must have suffered, but sat rigid
and composed, firmly grasping that hor-
rible thing. which she knew was some
living creature, when upon being clutch-
ed it gave forth squsaling sound. For
full three-quarters of an hour the brave
girl sat there, as composed as ever, still
retaining her hold to the close of the
