discovered that the place WAS already
occupied. After a little investigation he
discovered scouts had taken up their
quarters for the night IN the place, and
he therefore moved away. The sentinel
awoke with such vivid remembrance OF
the details that he asked permission to
go over and confer with one of the scouts.
When the log barn was described to TINS

Never Marry a Girl Of this Kind.

The settlement of Lower Oregon Is
going on at an unprecedented rate.
German couple has recently arrived with
fourteen children, the mother beng only
twenty-five years of age. They were
married in the fall of 1870, and the fol
following summer their married life was
blessed with twins, both girls. Less
than two years later, the woman, who
was then eighteen years old, gave birth
the latter living only a few days. In the
summer of 1874 three more girls regis
tered at that humble hearth, and in 1873
a boy arrived solitary and alone. Seven
years after marriage the arrival OF an
other cluster Of four, this time two boys
and two girls, was am event that created
some CONSERVATION, and two years ago
two more little fiaxen-haired girls came
to the fortunate couple.

The Beautiful Gates.

Speaking of the gates of Jerusalem, a

such as the Old Gate, Ephraims
Gate, the Valley Gate, the Prison Gate.
the Fish Gate, and others. At present
there are but four that can be opened,
although four others are distinctly seen
walled up. The gates now open are
those of Jaffa, of Damascus, of 81.
Stephen, and of David-one in each of
the four walls The Jaffa gate is north
west of Mount Zion, and is the usual
entrance for pilgrims from Christian
lands. 1t is composed of tall towers or
butiresses, evidently of great strength,
and easily defended against ancient
modes of warfare. The gates proper
consist of two large folding doors, in one
of which is q wicket called 1.-THE Needles

init n camel without any load on its
back, whence come, / suppose, the
scriptural adage about the difficulty of
a camel going through the eve of a
needle. | asked what significance the
natives attached to this. 0nd was gravely
told that, inasmuch as a camel can not
possibly pass through it while carry
ing any portion of load, similarly n
rich man can not pass through the
wicket of the heavenly Jerusalem until
he-has entirely unloaded himself of his
riches and his other earthly burdens.
The three other gates are of similar
construction, with. strong turrets. But
/ they are all wonderfully striking to the
eye, in their quaint and now useless
righteousness, albeit conveying pro
found impression of the ancient strength
of the city, and of the difficulty of its
capture by Moslem or Crusader. Now
