which supplied the thirsting nation as
freely and surely as it quenched the thirst

Blessed is he that giyeth cup OF water

badge of royalty for no one can buy or
receive one as gift, nor can fathers be-
queath them to children.
Each child is given tin dipper at its
birth, and only by purely unseltish acts
can the diamond one be wrought.
Some of the foolish people have not
yet learned its secret, and they go about
seeking to exchange their tin for
silver, by doing kind things. Some
times they accuse the Father of All
very bitterly, because they grow old pos
sessing only the tin dipper; for the secret
Of the exchange can no more be told than
the beautiful, flashing, sparkling diamonds
can be purchased.
Sometimes there are great surprises
when people give up the hope of such a
possession and forget Themselves for then
they often find the cast-away tin bearing
evidence in silver, gold or even diamonds
that somehow they have become royal
but by that time they have no vanity be
cause OF their fortune. Only modest
thankful, brave, happy feelings possess tn,

DRIVING WITHOUT HANDs.-A new
method of driving horses by means Of the
feet, so as to keep the hands warm in cold,
stormy weather, has been introduced re-
Gently. The method can be used either
with or without the ordinary plan of hand
driving, the latter being resortcd to in
genial weather if preferred. The feet rest
on firm board, and the horse is guided
by raising or lowering the toes, thus bear
ing on one or the other rein by means of
straps in connection with them, which
pass over the pulley mounted on the front
board of the vehicle The drivers hands
are quite free, and may be inserted in the
pockets of his great-coat. The apparatus
can be attached TO any vehicle in a few
minutes, and can be used by a very young
person. When the driver leaves the We
hicle there is a gentle bearing on the

A REMARKABLE MIST.

The cow-bunting of New England never
builds nest. The female lays her eggs
in the nests Of those birds whose young
feed like her own, on insects and worms,
taking care TO deposit but one egg in a nest
A cow-bunting deposited an egg in the nest
OF sparrow, in which was one egg of the
latter. On the sparrow's return what was
to be done? She could not get out the
Ngg which belonged to her, neither did she
wish to desert her nest, so nicely prepared
for her young. What did she do? After
consultation with her husband she fixed
on their mode of procedure. They built a
bridge Of straw and hair directly over the
two eggs, making a second story in the
home, thus leaving the two eggs below out
of the reach of the warmth Of the body
In the upper department she laid four eggs
and reared her four children. In the
museum al Salem, Mass, may be seen this
nest, with two eggs imprisoned below.

there was great alarm in the herd for a

the scene from the opposite bank, laughed.
"May know why you laugh, SIR" said
the old pig. Because" said the sage,
