The November MeteOrS.

November is the most favorable
month IN the year for meteoric dis
plays. During this month the
earth may be expected to pass
through two especially rich meteorie
belts known as the Leonids and
Andromedes II. The fist named
belt has been identified by Prof.
Adams v it'll a little comet discov-
cred by Tempel in 1856; that is,
there seems to be some evident re-
lationship Of cause and effect cons
Meeting that comet with the Leon
ids meteors. They radiate from
a point west of Gamma Leonls
the first star in the blade of The
Sickle" in the CO oscillation OF Leo,
and should be looked for on the
nights of the 18th TO the 18th; the
maximum display being due on the
18th. Il will be useless to look for
these meteors until after midnight,
as Gamma Leonis does not rise till
about 11.3O pm. The Andromeda
meteors should be looked for be-
tween November oath and December
It'll; the greatest display may be
expected on the night of the 9th.
The constellation from which they
radiate~is directly overhead about
$50 pm.

A Benevolent Sparrow and
Canary

A lady living in Chelsea, England, was
extremely fond of birds, of which she
kept a considerable number in cages.
Amongst others she had a canary, which
was particular favorite but the loud
ness of his note often obliged her to put
him outside her window, in some trees
which were trained up in front of her
house.
One morning, during breakfast, when
the cage was placed there, sparrow was
observed to fly round it, then to perch
on the top and twitter to the bird within,
between whom and itself sort of con-
versation seemed to ensue. After few
moments he flew away, but returned in a
short time, bearing worm or small grub
in his bill, which he dropped into the
cage and Immediately flew away. SINH
lar presents were received day after day,
at the same hour, by the canary from his
friend the sparrow, with whom he at
length became so intimate that he very
often received the food thus brought into
his own bill from that of the sparrow.
The circumstance attracted the atten-
ton of the lady's neighbors, who often
watched these daily visits, and some of
them, to try the extent of the sparrow s
kindness also hung their birds out at the
window, when they found them also fed (;
but it was remarked the first and longest
visit was always paid by the kind-heart-
ed sparrow to his original friend, the ca
nary.

Can a Child Have Faith ?

Yes, child can have faith. There is
not one of our readers so young as not to
be able to believe in the Lord Jesus
Christ and be saved.
Every one knows how to believe in
father or mother, in an older brother or
sister. Children naturally believe We
say to all the boys and girls, that God
their heavenly Father asks them to be-
lieve Him in the same way as they be-
lieve their parents. When they promise
anything, no matter what, their children
expect them to keep their promise. So
when God promises anything, the small
est child may expect Him to keep His
promise. And certainly He will do it.
God never disappoints those who put
their trust in Him. The earlier children
can be taught to remember their Creator,
the better for them.
We once knew most excellent young
man at college. One day in talking upon
religious matters, we asked him when he
became a Christian. His reply was
Ever since / can remember, l have
loved God, and loved the Lord Jesus
Christ"
So it will be seen that children from
their earliest years may be Christians.
They can have all the faith that is re-
CURED of them. AS they live in this
world, and by degrees learn how to live
and act, SO by degrees they come to know
more and more about religious matters.
At first their faith may be small, but like
the mustard seed, it will grow and ex-
pand until it fills all their life.--PayiSh

Jack is the name of tame crow owned
by a lady living in Seekonk, Mass. All
the cats and the dogs in the neighbor-
hood fear Jack, as if he were wild beast
of prey, for his bilEis sharp, and his
pecks incisive. Jack begins his work
early in the morning, by clearing the
barnw windows of all spiders. This fall
six men were digging potatoes in the
field, and Jack followed them all day
long, in order to eat the white grubs they
turned up.
Jack is a frst-rate mimic. He will
initiate the bark of dog so perfectly as
to deceive the sharpest ear. One morn
ing, not long ago, Jacks owner heard
some one whistle in the yard. Surprised
that the whistle should remain so long
outside, she opened the door. to find Jack
sitting on a broomstick, and whistling
with all his strength.
A strange man came into the barn
few days since. AS he wore neither shoe
nor stocking, Jacks attention was at
tracted by his bare feet. He investiga-
ted them with such vigorous pecks, that
-aghsy pushed him away ssve-
raj times In few minutes the man
yelled, and jumped three feet in the air.

Having Some Fun.

CHOW boys, l will tell you how we can
have some fun, said Charlie to his COM
panions, who had assembled one bright
moonlight evening for shedding, snow
balling and fun generally.
"What is it?" asked several at once.
You shall see, replied Charlie.
"Who has got saw ?"

of the boys.
+" Get them and you, and Fred, and
Nathan each get an axe, and | will get a

The boys separated to go on their
several errands, each wondering of what
use saws, axes and shovels could be in the
play. But Charlie was a favorite with
all, and they fully believed in his prom

fun.

One or two Of the boys objected, and
couldn't see the fun, but the majority
went for it with the inward satisfaction
and Joy that always result from vell-do-
ing.
1t did not take long for seven smart,
healthy boys to split up that load of wood
and to shovel a good path from doorstep
to wood-pile. They felt great pleasure
and satisfaction over their fun, and then
all went to a neighboring carpenters
shop where shavings could be had for
carrying away, and each brought an arm

and joyful hearts.

Burial of the Chinese Baby.

Little Fung Oy, the 6ve-year-old
daughter of Wah Sing and his wife, who
died the other day was buried in the
Evergreen Cemetery, New York, where
the Chinese have a plot. The coffin
rested on the floor, and Cha Lee, another
little girl, stood at the head of the coffin
looking at her sisters face, which was
almost hidden in slips of white paper.
On the wall burned red candles which
emitted disagreeable odor, while Mr..
and Mrs. Wah Sing nailed the plate on
the coffin. In the first carriage was
placed the coffin and the clothes of the
child, and in the second were the rela-
tives and Gee Lung, friend, each car
rying large bag filled with scraps of
paper bearing few written words. In
China the devil has a habit of racing to
the grave and taking the body as soon as
it arrives, but the friends of the deceased
throw out these slips of paper, and the
devil, who is very curious, stops to read
them, so that the corpse generally reach
es the grave before him. There was no
exception to the rule yesterday, for it
the devil stopped to read all the slips
that were thrown out of the carriage he
would have only reached the ferry when
the mourners were returning from the
cemetery. At the grave a fire was
kindled and the girls clothes burned,
the relatives throwing white powder
into the flames which burned with a
blush light. A board was placed over
the grave, on which the name of the
child was inscribed

A Child's Prayer.

A little girl about FIVE years old lived
with her parents, who were very poor, In
a small cottage in a village of Prussia.
One day, when her father was out, little
Rosa was sitting by her mother, who was
INST recovering from an attack of fever
lad weakened her very much
.ne was singing little hymn, when the
door opened suddenly, and six soldiers
walked into the room. The poor child
was so terrified at first that she fell from
the bench on which she had been sitting
A few moments afterward, however, she
rose to her knees, and in her own simple,
child like words, while the big tears
trembled in her eyes, she prayed that
God would pity them and help them;
that he would make the soldiers kind to
her mother, and tell them to 60 away to
some other house where they might get
something to eat and drink, and ending
with these words, " For thou knowest,
Lord, that we are very poor.
One of the soldiers patted the child's
head kindly, and said, Who taught you
to pray so nicely, little one 2
Jesus and mother" was her simple
reply.
The soldier, tall, strong, rough-look-
ing man, turned aside his head and
brushed tear from his cheek, then put
ting a piece of money in her lap, he
kissed the little girl, and said to her
kindly, There is something for you
mother, my child. Pray for us soldiers,
also, sometimes, like good little girl,
for we need prayer very much
A few moments later little Rosa, who
had rushed to close the door after the
soldiers, was clasped in her mothers arm.
And how gladly that mother thanked
the Lord, who had SO kindly protected
them from harm and danger, in answer to
the prayer of her dear child.
