His New Catechisni.

Bobby was sitting quietly in the shadow OF
the well-house reading dime novel. His
mother called out to him five times to bring
some stovewood, but he was so absorbed in
the tale that he imagined he heard only the
Indians calling for more wood to pile around
the "White Lily" about to be burned at the
stake. But his father came aroud under the
well.house shadow and demanded to know;
what book is that, sir?'
Bobbie remembered that the old man
couldn't read and that he was awtully down
on dime novels to boot, so he replied
at is my new catechism, sir"
Exactly" said the old man, and pointing
TO the picture on the back; "Wha's that pic
ture thar, sir:'
"Why, that's tic angel IN the turning bush
pa. thought you'd u know'd thTt.'
"Irs nasty, sinking dime novel, that:
what it is" lnierposed Bobbic's ma. AnC
the next minute Bobbie was spinning arounC
| like fellow hung with II shirt-coIlar and the
old man was tanning hlm with slipper ant
asking BObbie all these hard conundrumS;

II is very certain that mans intimate
friends are often the last TO suspect his pos
session of unusual abilities. This is trlte
observation, bat is constantly being surprised
at some new proof Of its truth. 1t was moi
long ago that gentleman told US that he did
no. believe that a certain celebrated poet had
any real genius, because lie once lived i'll the
same town with him, and knew that his fam
lily were no better than they should be. He
had never read any of his books, however. II
was the old story over again. "IIe q great
man! Nonsense knew him when he was
only that high"
PEAISING THE WORK or FRIENDS.
There is another matter about which we
are apt to be unjust in our friendships We
are so sensitive 10 the charge of overestimat.
ing the value of friends work through pre-
judice, that sometimes we let a stranger get
the better OF VI in the expression of apprecla.
tion and praise. This Is a small and damna-
BILE selhshncss. Why should we not praise
the sermon, The picture, Tie story, the poem of
our friend? How did he yet 10 be our
friend IN the first pladey Did we not choose
him, from among Ten thousand, because of
those very qualities which attract Us anew in
his art?

4 sly Old Eo&.

The Reese River New ReteiLie tells The
following: There was one old fox which
for period Of several years had continually
Ievaded the tlcetest and kcenest scented
hounds, the scent invariably beng lost in the
vicinity Of house situated in the woods and
far removed from any habitation and which
was used as a storehouse for pelts. At last
one day the hounds started the old fox, and
away he went in the direction Of the house
with pack Of young hounds IN full cry after
him, but on nearing the house he disappear
ed, leaving the hounds and hunters nonpluss
ed as usual. While the hunters were gather
! ing in and around the house discussing th'
| frequent mysterious disappearance the fox
veteran hound came limping up, and, en-
tering the door, set up vigorous barking
and tried to jump up on the wall. His sin
gular action attracted The attention Of th'
hunters, and an examination being made, TIT
old fox was found suspended by his tail to ;
nail in the wall, keeping perfectly still, anC
looking, unless closely observed, like th'
peits with which the walls were hung Thi
plainly showed that the old fox, when TO-
closely pressed, had taken refuge in In
house and hung himself up on the nail b.
his tail, which was the reason for the dog
always losing the scent at that particula

an authentic fact, TO when hundreds can
bear testimony:
About forty years ago young man named
Wilson, residing near the town ol IeIth, CON
ceiyed the lunatic idea OF leading hermits
life. The youth had from his early age snow
ed SYMPTOMS of arrangement, ana this pro,
ceedine on his part was not considered
strange by his friends. The chosen place OF +
his hermitage was about three quarters OF
a mile from his parental homestead, In the
recess of dense bush, where he erected
small boycl, and furnished it with an 0lc log

people cross his path he invariably begs for

until his request is granted. His hair is
long, gray and Hnkcmpt, falling far over his
shoulders, and his beard, which is similar,
reaches down below his waist. He is now
between sixty and seventy years OF age, and
is possibly the only living being ever known
to have lived year after year perfectly naked
and exposed to all the inclemencies OF wealth
or which mark our Canadian winters
