On the 9th OF January we camped at

many spurs of The Kabuga, we obtained
q passing glimpse of the king of noun

altitude OF between 1900 and 5000
feet above the ocean. Snow is frequent

the other three were comparatively un-

was stricken down sense.ess, and almost
lileless for time. He revived after a
few minutes, and soon seemed to have
regained all his strength, but was dumb

The lightning had set fire to his clothing.

This is true story The happy cir
cumstances occurred on last Sunday
evening He escorted her 10 and from
church, and upon arriving at her home
their discussion OF the sermon and the
extreme heat suggested an invitation,
readily accepted By Charles. that they
step into the house and partake of q
cooling glass of lemonade. She led him
to the dining room and there found
naughty brother Ben about to squeeze
the last lemon in the house for his own
individual benefit. Calling him aside
she induced Ben by sundry hint. and
promises to dissect that lemon and make
Charley and herself glass. A self-sac-
rihcing thought struck her. No, Ben"
said she, "put the juice OF the whole
lemon in Charley's glass and bring me
glass OF water. He won't notice it
there i. no light IN the parlor
Ben was making one good strong
lemonade. as directed. when Charles
quietly slipped ont and remarked 81
say, put the Juice of the entire lemon in
your sisters glass and bring me some
ice water-Lhere is no light in the parlor
and she won't notice it!'
Ben's forte is in obeying orders.
With q merry twinkle in his eye he
drank the lemonade. then carried them
each glass OF water. which they drank
with much apparen! relish. asking each
other between sips, "it it was sweet
enough" And naughty brother Ben,
with the taste of that lemonade in his
mouth. stood out in the hall and laughed
till his sides ached, TO hear them assure
