4 Cat Sucking a Mans Breath In
Missouri.

Mr.. French, q member of the Thorne
Dramatic Troupe, playing an engage
ment in this city, retired to rest at an
early hour, and soon fell into deep
slumber. After the lapse OF an hour or
two he was aroused by q feeling of over
powering oppressiveness and suffocation.
and was horrifed to find that huge cat
was sitting on his breast, and had its
head to his mouth sucking away his
breath. ea
He found bimself in an almost ex-
hausted condition; so much 80 that he
was unable to shake off the vampire
6end attacking him. Struggle as be
would. the cat only fastened It's claws the
deeper in his chest, and went on. at its
horrible feast.
His groans and cries of agony, how,
ever. fortunately brought some neigh
horing dodgers to his relief, and he was
rescued frem his frightful position. Even
then they were compelled to turn him
out of bed and roll him over and over
before the cat could be made to release
its hold and abandon its purpose.

rsgTbe iovs of religion are the {

The joys Of religion are the en-
couragement of youth and the prop of
old age. Without them we sicken even
in the midst of prosperity; and with
them adversely loses all its terrors. They
sweeten our slumbers, they soothe our
waking hours at home and abroad, in
private and in public, they are our con-
slant companions, our richest treasures.
The vigor of youth and the blush of
health are transitory blessings; the pride
of rank soon wearies, and riches make
themselves wings and fly away; but the
joy of Christian, though it walks upon
earth, hides its head in heaven. 1t is
the Gift of God, and God alone is able
to deprive him of it. -Faber on the Holy
Spirit, (, sng

Needs work that he is skilled in, "
