A Tiger in the Path.

The following extract from letter
from lady, describing an adventure
she lately met with, appears in the
Madras Mail: "We have been coming
through dense jungle for the past five
days, some of the scenery really quite
lovely, but three mornings ago Mrs.
NJ, the ayah, little and I got an
awful fright. My husband had ridden
on little way in front of us and we
were driving slowly along a rough
piece of road. Suddenly the bullock
driver said, "A tiger, a tiger I looked
out, and sure enough there was an
enormous tiger walking slowly through
the long grass toward US. When with
in a couple of yards of us, he stood and
stared at us. Little - got awfully
frightened, and cried so, poor little fell
low. The bullock man was afraid to
drive quickly; he behaved so well, and
went on driving quite slowly, and star
ing at the animal. When we got on a
few PAGES, to our horror the tiger came
after us at trot; and just then my
husband, who knew nothing of this,
turned round and got off his horse to
come and take me out Of the tonga to
walk over bad bit of road. He had
only his fowling- piece with him, not
his rifle. When the tonga stopped the
tiger stopped and crouched, and my
husband fred off his fowling-piece, the
only thing we could do to brighten it.
Thank God it had the desired effect;
the tiger galloped off to the jungles,
and you can imagine our delight at
seeing the last of the awful creature. !"

A MARROW ESCAPE.
BY MRS. NJ. L. RAYNE.

..Feyther,'' said Mrs. Stebbins, hold
ing up thick envelope. Here's .
letter for you. faint from Brother
Will, nor from Sile's wife. Whose
been writin' tew you, d. you Think"
Farmer Stebbins took off his warm
coon-skin cap, tied the ears together.
and hung it up; then he felt in each
pocket for his horn spectacles.
sThey're in the Bible where you left
them last night said his daughter.
Then she produced them, and he fitted
them over his nose and held the letter
out a good arms length before him.
.J-o-h-n Jacob S-t-e-b-b-i-n-s,"
read the old farmer slowly and in a
loud voice. THAT'S me for sure. Now
the question is, as you say, whose been
an writ to me-
'.For mercy sake, do open it, said
Mrs. Stebbins. II shall fly if you set
there and finger it any more 'thout
KNOWN what it MEANS
Eyes, pa, do read it, urged the
daughter. Maybe it's an offer Of a
school for me-
Like enuff! like enuff!'' answered
her father. ''Let's see what the post
mark is. Why, it's Bosting. Bosting
ez sure 'ez I'm a Twin man."
''Call me if you happen to need me"
said Mrs. Stebbins, with fine sar-
casm. I'm goin' out to set the salt
risin' for the bread. "
Gimme the stamp pop" said John
Jacob Stebbins, Jr. They're don't
nobody rite to us. only Hetty's beau,
and he don't send emmy thing but pos
tai keerds.'
By this time Mr.. Stebbins had slowly
and laboriously succeeded in getting
the envelope off the letter. A bank
check for $4,000 fell out. It was
beautifully printed in green and gold,
and Endorsed on it's back with the name
on it's face; not line accompanied it.
"G-r-e-a-t Jerusalem!" exclaimed the
farmer, ''here's windfall. Now who
do you 'spose wife ever sent me such a
heap of money!"
ssThe land knows said his wife
who had done nothing but stare at the
check.
'.D'ye 'spose Uncle Silas has come
back from furrin parts, and died and
left me the hull of his estate?''
''He never did such a thing before, y
said Mrs. Stebbins, innocently.
eve can move into town now,'' said
Miss Hetty, proudly.
$50 we kim" said John Jacob, Jr..
''and I'll have vlosspede and a bisik-
el and wear plaid close and bang my
hair, hoora;y! Won't we big apples
.'Stop your noise," said the perplex-
ed farmer, looking in the direction of a
birchen stick that protruded from the
clock-shelf. 'You needn't think you'll
git all you want COS I'm rich. | can
find lots of places for money, an don't
you forget it, young manr'
"Feyther,'' said Mrs. Stebbins,
.'there's only one thing I've allus
wanted to hev in case we ever got rich,
an now I kin hev it. 1t seems too
good to be true"
''Some fol-de-rol, l suppose; out with

But it amt silk gown, feyther,''
said Mrs. Stebbins bridlino.

Drifting.
oh, the winds were ali ALLOWING down the
And e;tidesW was outward flowing, and the
rushes fitted by.
All the lilies seemed to culver
On the fair and dtmpled river,
All the west was golden red;
In the pleasant autumn weather,
And merrily down we sped.
Oh the town behind us faded in the pale.
And We left the river shaded, and we drifted
down the bay,
And across the harbor bar,
Where the hungry breakers are
You and Grace and Tom and L.
To the Golden Land with laughter,
Where we'd live in peace thereafter,
Just beyond the golden sky.
oh, the winds were chilly growing DER the
gray, gray sea,
While white winged bark came blowing DER
the pillows on our lee,
Cried the skipper, all awonder,
'Mercy on us! over yOnder-
Bear hand my lads with me
Four young children all together,
In this pleasant evening weather,
Going adrifting out to scar
All our prayers were nnavailing, all our fond.
For our iuu Go d Land had vanished with its

And the gold had turned to gray.

Girls Book knowledge.

Think of an undeveloped brain get
ting up book knowledge on ten differ
ent subjects in one day, and this going
on day after day for several years! It
is altogether contrary to the principles
of sound psychology to imagine that
any sort of mental process. worthy Of
the name of brain thinking, can take
place in that brain while this is going on.
The natural tendency of good brain
at that age to be inquisitive and re-
ceptive is glutted to more than safety.
The natural process of building up q
fabric of mental completeness by hav-
ing each new fact and observation
looked at in different ways, and having
it suggest other facts and ideas, and
then settle down as part of the regu-
lar furniture of the mind, cannot posi-
bly, go on where new facts are shovelod
in by hundred day by day. The effect
of this is bad on boys, but it is worse
on girls, because it is more alien to
their mental constitution. - Popular
