drinking As we settle down to the
dreary reality, we look ahead and per
ceive beautiful lake! There are its
waters spread out before us, its banks
are lined with trees, and on its farther
shore is seen village, or, perhaps, a
castle, which will afford us shelter and
rest.
We point to the lake, and our driver
smiles. He has seen the same thing be-
fore, and knows what it is. 1t is not a
lake at all, but a mirage. As we ap-
proach it the.waters disappear, the trees
melt away, the castle vanishes. and in a
little while we are walking over the spot
where the pretended lake made its APP
pearasce. Many traveller has been
deceived by the mirage, not only in
Africa but on the plains between the
Missouri River and the Rocky Noun
tains. A few years ago, when regi-
ment was crossing desert in the upper
part of Egypt, the men were suffering
greatly from thirst; mirage appeared
on the horizon, and the deception was so
great that the soldiers believed that they
were actually in sight of lake. Mad
dened by thirst, they broke from the
raks, the officers lost all control of
them, and one and all ran in search of
the precious water. In little while the
lake disappeared, and when the soldiers
realized how they had been deceived,
many of them fell to the ground and
were too weak to rise and join their COM
rades. If you want to know how to dis
tinguish a mirage. please remember that
it is always exactly the color of the sky
above 1t, while a real lake or river is
pretty certain to be of different hue.
And if you are riding camel you will
find that he will never be deceived; he
will scent water long distance and &C
straight toward it, but will never pay the
least attention to mirage. 4 ongrega.

SONG FOR THE DISCONTINUED.


Though your heart be very plain,
Do not, If you're wise, complaint;
Not home on earth is always glad;
But though it may have its care,
Homes full cup everywhere,
And you II know its value when you've lost
it, lad.
Though the wife may frown bit,
Though she has the ready wit
CIT to say word or two that makes you sad,
Yet, II she be good and true,
Bear with her whate'er you do;
You'll never know her value till you've
lost her. lad.
If you've got a trusty friend,
On whose love you can depend,
1t won't pay you, all his failings up to add:
Love, with gold you cannot buy;
Little faults pass kindly by;
fon IL never know his value till you've lost
him. lad.
o, it is a little mind
mat is always sure to find
Every gift and pleasure mixed with something
bad;
It is easy to complain,
Till all happiness is vain; =
But you know its value when you've lost
it, lad.
Best and wisest men go wrong,
False notes mar the sweetest song,
And the sunniest heart is sometimes dull and
sad;
But each blessing that is sent
Comes with sweet and kind intent;
II you slight the good, and only count the bad
You ii ind out their value when you've lost
them, lad.
