WHY.

cannot tell why God should send into
my life
The bitter sweet,
Nor do know why toll and strife
My hopes defeat
know not why this weary aching
My heart should feel;
only know, in dreams or waking,
Life seems too real.
cannot tell why fond affection
Should soon grow cold,
Or why the friends we love and cherish
Are quickly told.
only know some hearts are trusting,
And fall to find.
The love which knows no change or
rusting-
Pure gold, refined.
All, weary heart, wherever hidden,
In age or youth,
Sad Marah comes to each unbidden;
But God is truth.
We know not why His wisdom sondeth
Each sorrow down;
But patient prayerful, calm endurance
viii win crown.
Trusting henceforth His love and mercy,
Our hearts will cry;
Dear Father, send us hope and strength
Thou knowest why.

FINED FOR KISSING His DAuGHT-

years ago been adopted by Mrs.
Mann, and the father lost sight of
her until yesterday, when on enter
ing saloon kept by Mrs. Mann he
saw his daughter and at once recog-
nizcd her. The girl, who is 10 years
years of age, did not know her
father, and ON his kissing her push
ed him roughly away and COM

arrested for assault, and, although
in court he proved his identity, he
was tincd.-N. Y. Times.

THE "ATLANTTc" EDITOR AND THE
Notwithstanding is one of
great many professional men here
abouts who are trying to renew their
muscular fibres by exercise on the
modern wheel. Younger and more
active men prefer the greater celer-
ity of the bicycle and enjoy the
flavor of danger that goes with the
uncertain poise on two wheels.
Some of our clergymen, those Of
the more liberal pcrsuasions, suffer
no loss of dignity in bcstriding the
spirited steed whose only fault is an
occasional kick-up behind, and
young lawyers and doctors are
thickly sprinklcd among the riders
who may be met any pleasant day
on the sand-papered roads about
Boston. Mr.. Alrich, the editor of
the atlantic Monthly" tells, with
much gusto, of his attempt to con-
quer the bicycle, and of the amaz-
ing cccentricitics that the beast dis
played at his attempted mounting.
The atlantic" editor is Il brave,
though modest, young man, and
the father of twins; but no man
knows that he ever made a second
attempt on the bicycle. He is one
of the few who have given up beat
en- on the first trial.-Minheapolis

A BEAR FIsHING FOR SALMON
One of the curious sights | saw in
Alaska was a grizzly bear fishing for
salmon. Long before we came to
the spot we saw his tracks in the
soft margin of the lake. The marks
of his feet measured sixteen inches
across and were nearly twiceas long.
Suddenly my guide made me a sign
and dropped down behind Il rock,
! did the same, and, looking ahead
not more than three rods / saw the
largest wild animal / had ever seen
in my life outside of Il menagcrie.
! knew it was a grizzly. The great
brute was lying on the top ola bank
in which he had scooped out chute
down to the waters edge, at a sharp
angle, The bears eyes were fixed
intently on the water, and he had
not heard our approach. Present
ly he slid down that chute with as
tonishing velocity and plunged
head first in the water. When he
arose and backed out he had in one
of his great paws an enormous sal
mon, which he took to the top of
the bank and proceeded to make Il
meal of it. He never finished it for
both my guide and myself sent two
rifle balls into his gigantic carcass.
He arose to his feet with roar like
a lion, turned about two or three
times as if to see whence the deadly
fire had come and then fell to the
ground and soon was dead. This
fishing for salmon is common
method of securing choice morsels
of food bv both the common bear
and the grizzly.-Sitka Letter to the
New York Times.

AN INDIAN DELIOACY.

The Indians scattered along the
foothills of the Sierra are a quiet,
inofl'cnsive people. They do not
appear TO be governed by amy tribal
laws, yet adhere to many Of their
old traditions. The tide Of indus
try and civilization sweeping over
and around las left them greatly
modified ly tie contact, and
although they retain the original
characteristics of the race, in some
respects they are much improved.
One or two men of superior ability
and industry form a nucleus around
which others less ambitious gat..rl.
Here they fence with brush and logs
tract sufficient for their require
ments of hay making, pasturage,
etc. They invariably build their
cabins upon the most slightly point,
even when the spring that furnishes
their water is halfway down the
hill. This habit has no doubt de-
scended from a warlikc ancestry,
and is no evidence of an aesthetic
delight in hazy valleys and misty
mountain tops. Their gardens arc
not an assured success when water
is plentiful and the weather propiti-
Gus. They cannot always wait for
maturity. Many of them are in
dustrious and find remunerative
work at wood-chopping, sheep-shcar-
ing, etc.
Although they often Indulge in
the food of civilized nations, the
acorn is still favorite article of
diet in every well-regulated wig
wan. The process of converting
this bitter nut into anything like
palatable bread is curious. Under
the branches of a grand old pine |
found them at work. They had
shucked and ground in the usual
manner large mass of the acorn
meats; number of circular watts
had been followed out of the black
soil, much the shape of a punch
bowl. Into these was put the acorn
pulp. At hand stood several large
clothes-baskets filled with water,
and into these they dropped hot
stones, thus heating the water to the
required temperature. Upon the
mass of crushed bitterness they
carefully ladled the hot water, max
ing it about the color and consist
ency of thin cream. Not Il speck
appeared to mix. A buXom muhala
stood by each vat and with a small
fir bough stirred the mass, skillfully
removing any speck that tloated
upon the surface. The soil gradually
absorbed the bitter waters, leaving
a firm, white substance, of which
they make bread.
asked to taste Of it, AZ which
they said something in their Ian

was handed a small particle upon {

move it, and so adroitly was this
done that but a small portion adj

it was fit for use. This, ! am told

A JUVENILE WARRIOR.-The wild
ow of General Custer relates that in
a Dakota Indian dance a 4-year-old
boy was brought to the circle by his
mother and left to make his little
whirling gyrations around the ring
of the dancers. 1t was explained
that he had won his right to join in
the festivities of the tribe. OF four
Indians of a rival tribe left on a
battlefield one, though MORALLY
wounded, was not yet dead when
the retreat took place. A squaw
melted the child to plunge a knife
into the wounded warrior. As a
reward he acquired the privilege OF
joining in all celebrations and the
right to wear an eagle feather stand
ing straight from the scalplock o
his tiny head. The mothers eye
cleaned with pride as she watched
the miniature warrior admitted
among the mature and experienced
brayes.-Chicago Tribune.
