Visible Stars.

The number of the stars visible to the
naked eye is commonly greatly overesti-
mated Let one begin to count the stars
and the false impression is soon dispelled.
The whole number Of stars down to the
fifth magnitude inclusive is hardly more
than 1900. Stars of the sixth magnitude
are the finest specks Of light, visible only
in favorable state of the atmosphere, and
these included will not bring the count
much above 1000. except for persons who
have extraordinary keenness of sight.

The Czpr's Domain.

One seventh part of the land surface of
the earth, and one twenty eight part of its
whole area constitute the dominion of the
Gar of all the Russias More than 100,-
600 people call him father, and are under
his absolute government In Russia a
child is born on an average every eight
seconds throughout the year, and death
occurs every eleven seconds. At the
present rate of increase the population
will double in about sixty years But
Russia is very far behind most civilized
nations in the care of children and in the
preservation Of life. Statistics show that
so per cent of all the children die under
the age of FIVE years. The average dura
ton of life in Russia is only twenty-six
years, which is much below the average in
the Western countries of Europe and in
the United States.

Every farmer has more or less ashes

Old bones, hats and shoes are allowed

The Candid Man.

1t is a curious fact that the wild ami
NAL known as the candid man is never
able to see your good qualities, but he
snaps at your bad ones like hungry
trout at a fly. He looks you all over
with his critical microscope, and if there
is something good in your life does he
take it gently in his hands, hold it up to
the sunshine, turn it round to get bet
ter view, and put it back in its place
with the remark, That's worth having,
and I'm glad you have it; try and get
some more of the same kind!' Never
We say it very emphatically; Never!
He is not candid in that way. But let
him catch a glimpse of a fib and he will
chase it as a weasel does a rat, and
when he has caught it he will hold it up
with an air of triumph, as though he
had no other business in life than TO
hunt for such things, and then deliver a
forty-minute discourse on the ultimate
destination of people who tell tibs, and
end by saving with an air of depreca-
ton, I'm candid, and always say what
l think. ~. Y. Heraid.

FRIENDLY LIONS.
Animals, Naturally Ferocious, That Can
BE Taught to Forget Their
WiIdness.


Every boy who has visited a menage.
RE knows that the lion is capable of be-
ing taught. A lion exhibited in Dutch
menagerie would leap through barrel
covered with blazing paper. He was 50
tame that the keeper took his food from
him several times, with no resistance
save slight clutch and growl.
If lion is captured when young, and
treated with kindness, he becomes at
tached to his master, and will follow him
like dog. Anderson, the Swedish natu-
ralist, saw, in the hut of an African
trader, one who was not only fond of
his owner, but lived on the most affec-
Tomato terms with the dogs, cats and
other domestic animals.
Layard says, in his "Neneveh and
Babylon" that the Pasha of Hillah, the
town built on the ruins of ancient Baby
Ion, had tame lion, who was allowed
TO stroll, unattended, through the ba-
Ears. He had only one bad habit; when
he was hungry, he would take possession
of butchers stall, drive out the butch
er, help himself to joint, eat it, and
then depart
If he had fancy to breakfast on fish,
he would go down to the bank of the
Euphrates, wait the coming of q fisher.
mans boat, scare away the owner, pick
out the largest fish, and break his fast
as his leisure.
The Pasha encouraged his pet to get
his daily rations by this method, as ii
relieved him from paying fisherman's
and butchers bills. When the lion had
appeased his hunger, he would stretch
himself in the sun, and allow the Arab
boys to play with him, as if he was a
large dog.
The captain of an English frigate kept
large huge pet lion, which he had
reared from cub, that was so tame As
to be allowed the run of the ship.

attached to his keeper than to his owner
One day the keeper got drunk, and the
captain ordered him to be logged The
grating on which the keeper, stripped
to his waist, was tied, stood opposite
Princes cage. While preparations
were being made for the flogging, the
lion kept walking around his cage, stop,
ping now and then to look at his friend
and at the boatswain, who stood, "cat'
in hand, waiting the word.
AT the first stroke of the knotted tail s
on the mans bare back, the lions sides
resounded with the quick lashings of his
tail. His eyes glowed with rage when
he saw the blood began to flow. With
a roar of thunder, he dashed himself
against the cages bars. They bent, but
did not give way; and the lion, finding
that he could not break out, rolled or
the floor, shrieking as if in agony.
"Cut down the mani said the cap
tain to the boat swain.
$50 to your friend!' said he to the
bleeding keeper.
When the man entered the cage, the
lion seemed to be beside himself for Joy
He caresssed him with his paws, licked
gently the mangled back, and then
folding him in his huge fore-limb, looked
as if he dared the whole crew to tax,
his friend from his embrace. - Youth

COVERING UP THE POISON.

How Reginald Was Taught the Difference
Between Being and Merely Seeming to

"Uncle, what are you doing?" in

Reginald did not quite know what TO

THE CATCHER CAUGHT.

he story of a Little Boy Who Went Fish
ing.
A little boy, one pleasant day,
Toward creek pursued his way;
He kept the school-house out of sight,
Looking behind ofttlmes in fright,
And in one hand, as on he STOLE
He clutched willow tishing-pole.
Down by the meadow swift he passed
Until he reached the creek ut last;
= Then, with no thought to mar of school,
He cast his line into pool
And, with a smile of calm delight,
He waited for the fish to bite.
The moments glided swiftly by;
The sun oerhead was getting high;
But not fish would delgn to look
The while at his seductive hook;
Though hungry insects DER his head
Bit condescendingly instead.
A frog upon lily-pad
Kept grinning at the luck he had.
The smile contracted to frown;
The little boy he sat him down,
And there, upon the streams soft brink,
HIS drowsy eyes began to blink;
Till, with his head upon his breast,
He sank back in the sedge TO rest;
When suddenly he heard a "swish,"
And from the water rose fish
A fish of such prodigious size ...
That it would make thousand fries
A fish off which a troop might dine
With gigantic rod and line!
And in gruff tones the monster cried,
The while the little boy it eyed:
BY no barbed hook can we be caught;
We're not so foolish as you thought;
"The tables have been turned on you,
And we can go a-tishing too!
This very night shall all enjoy
4 chowder made of little boy!"
And, looking hideously grim,
The creature cast its line at him.
The truant watched the hook descend,
While every hair stood up on end;
Till, with twist expert and neat,
1t caught him by his trousers seat;
And then, with juvenile despair,
He dangled wildly in the air!
And while, with a complacent grin,
His scaly captor drew him in,
A piercing scream the silence broke,
And then-the little boy awoke
And, though of fish there was no trace,
Fresh danger threatened in its place;
With look foreboding little good,
Before him his stern father stood!
