n FALUABLE CAT.
Here is a story which is almost par
allel to the story Of Elijah and the IA
vens:
1t appears from the Suffolk WAY
Herald that some time ago the wife of
Mr.. Alfred Davis (who was drowned
with his two sons i'll \ ansemond river)
was confined to her room with protract-
ed sickness, and such was the poverty
OF the poor man that he was unable to
procure the necessary nourishment for
her; indeed, as Mr.. Davis related the
case, the wants of the family must have
been of the severest and most irving
nature, the family subsisting for sever
al weeks Oh potatoes and salt alone.
During the sad indisposition of Mrs.
Davis, and her pressing want for food,
common house cat went into the field
and caught II young hare AID brought
it in to the house. Mr.. Davis took the
hare and made it into soup for his SUIT
fering wife, which caused rapid i'm
pr0vement in her condition. The day
following the same cat again set out on
its mission of charity, and succeeded in
catching a partridge, which was like
wise brought to the house and deliver
ed as was the hare; and thus it was.
through the instrumentality of this
cat, the life Of this unfortunate lady
was saved from absolute starvation.
The facts of the above can be substan-
tiated as correct, and are given as re-
lated ny Mr.. Davis in person.

DIR NEW RAITR0AD

Minneapolis will soon shake hands
with st. Louis. The last rail of the
iron band which is to unite the two
places will be laid in few days. and
then the metropolis Of the upper Miss
issippi and the 'Qneen City, will be
within 264 hours time of one another.
The mythical line projected over the
prairies of Minnesota and Iowa. 5C2
miles in length, will be an accomplish
ed fact, and morning trains for St.
Louis will run daily from Minneapolis,
and return. A new outlet for business
will be opened and another inlet added
to the many already laid Tor bringing
the products of the country to our
doors.-Minneapo]is Tribune.

n DISCOVERY.

A copy of a newspaper was recently
discovered in the library of the Uni
versity of Heidelberg, bearing date 1909.
It was weekly paper, published at
Strausburg. The Florence correspond
ent, under date of Sept. 4, writes:
The government of Venice made a
considerable present to Slgnor Calico.
of Florence, Professor of Mathematics
at Padua, and increased his annual
stipend by 100 crowns, because with
diligent study he found out rule and
measure by which it is possible to see
places thirty miles distant as if they
were near. and on the other hand near
objects to appear much larger than they
are before our eyes.

CROOUET.


He took the first downward step at
croquet. He cheated playing that in
nocent game and from there he went
on till he landed in the penitentiary
But we will let correspondent of the
LIE Mars Sentinel tell it himself:
You have spoken of me as being fond
of the game of croquet. l 0n fond of
it, and for more reasons than one.

alton where character that IS, and char
acter that for life is to be, CAN be more
plainly seen, and more profitably stud
led, than on the croquet ground. The
player that will slyly, with his foot,
move his ball an inch, to gain a more
advantageous position, ecill bear ecatch-
ing. l knew such a one, 1 watched
him. He was soon convicted of pen

believe: that while we as parents de-

amusements, that our Heavenly Faith

engage in such cheerful out door recre-
ations, as are calculated to superin-
