he discovered two large cats lying ou

There was something of a disap-

instead Of running away. spraug at

around, while the cats squalled,

was almost toro in threads. Seiziug
one Of the cata by tho hind legs, be
attempted to beat it to death against
the wall, but the animal doubled
around aud began tearing bis arm.
Shaking the feline Of, he ran to the
ladder leading down. Tho animals
followed him. Just as he reached
the ladder, he discovered monkey
wrench lying on the door. Seizing
1t, he turned, dealt the foremost cat
blow between the eyes, and before
it could recover mashed its head.
The other animal was not rendered
less ferocious by the death of its
companion. but fought with fury
With a heavy Llow tue boy stretch, d

"A Prodigy.

There are many persons who, if we
are to place full credence in their biog-
raphers, must have been extraordinary
marvels of precoeity and cleverness.
Annie Maria Schurman, for example,
who was the boast Of Germany, was one
of this description. At the age of six,
and without instruction, she cut in pa
per the most delicate figures !; at eight
she learned in few days to paint flow
ers, which, it should be added, were
highly esteemed and two years later it
cost her only five hours application to
learn the art Of embroidering with ele-
gance. Her talents for higher attain
ments, we are told, did not develop
themselves till she was twelve years Of
age, when they were discovered in the
following manner: ilBB II.'!d /
Her brothers were studying in the
apartment where she sat, and it was
noticed that whenever their memories
failed in the recital Of their lessons, the
little girl prompted them without any
previous knowledge of their tasks ex.
cept what she Had gained from hearing
the boys con them over. In her educa-
ton she made extraordinary progress,
aud is said TO have perfectly understood
the German, Low Dutch, French, Eng
lish, Latin, Greek, Italian, Hebrew, Sy
risc, Chaldean, Arabic and Ethiopian
languages. Her knowledge Of science
and her skill in music, painting and
sculpture were also extraordinary and
her talent for modelling was shown
BY the wax portrait she contrived tC
make Of herself with the aid Of a mirror
When il is added that her letters were
not only valuable for the elegance oi
their style, but for the beauty Of tn,
written characters, which caused th'
said spistles 20 be preserved as cabine
euiOsitiea, we may Judge what a prod
igy Of cleverness was foreshadowed BY
the talents she displayed as a child
