a brunette, of graceful figure, with a
peculiarly animated expression of coun-

warm, her large gray eyes were rich and
merry, and her features would pass
muster among sculptors. At receptions
held in the armory of the Twenty-third
Regiment she was always observed with
admiring interest, and she had beaux bv

That take the lonely house of thought!
A restless rabble unsubdued;

A rainbowed figure glides about,
And from her brightness, like the day,
The whipping shadows stink away.

ated we could see that the sorrel had
been badly used, especially about the
legs.
When the horses wheeled for the third
time both were bent on mischief. As
they came together they reared up like
dogs and struck at each other, and for
five minutes they were scarcely off
their hind feet. Some hard blows were
exchanged, and our horse had the best
of the round. Indeed, when the sorrel
wheeled and ran away he had his head
down and he seemed to acknowledge
defeat. He ran off about twenty rods
before wheeling, and as he stood for a
moment looked at him through field

seconds. By its light caught sight OF

AS the first of the herd got through

entered the V-shaped space and others
kept them crowded in there. The
lightning was flashing and the thunder
roaring again, and the poor beasts were
appalled, at the situation. There were

STUDIES FOR SPARE MoMENTs.-It is
plainly impossible to learn everything
that deserves TO be learned, and on the
other hand, to give up in despair and let
all study go 10y the board Is, of course,
both foolish and wicked. The first thing
Is to select the three or four branches
most congenial to ones disposition and
capacity, and set ones self TO master
them thoroughly. The next thing is as
Emerson says, to ''lop off decisively ones
miscellaneous activities" Three or
four subjects of study are better than
one alone, because a devotion to one pro-
notes narrowness of view and q wrong
perspective. One Of these sujects will
naturally be the main subiect-the man.

OSTRICH FARMING IN AFMcA.-The
chickens feathers are first plucked at
nine months old, and look only fit to be
made into busting brushes. In the sec
ond year they are little like the ostrich
feathers of commerce, but stiff and mar
row, and it is not till the third year that
they have attained their full width and
softness. During the first two years the
male and female birds are alike; but at
each Noting the male becomes darker,
until the plumage is all black, except the
wings ard tail, which are white. In
each wing there are twenty four long
feathers. During the breeding season the
bill of the male bird, the large scales
on the fore part of the leg, and some
times the skin of the head and neck, as
sumo a deep rose color. After a good
rain ostriches begin Ia make nests. st

their booming is heard in all directions
The bird initiates its neck like q cobra,
and gives three deep roars, the two first
short and staccato, the third prolonged.

profession Of veterinary surgeon Is an
excellent one for young men. IL is a
profession that is not overcroWdcd. and
the young man who has the necessary
capabilities and the requisite amount of
push needed in any vocation will almost
always fnd plenty TO do. Our govern
ment IS, however slower than it should
be III recognizing the value of this class
of professional men. In the regular
army veterinary surgeons are clas-ed as
faJriers and taken il the ranks as enlisted
men. Their pay is from $75 to 800 q
month. In private practice the rates of
the veterinary surgeons are the same IS
those Of the medical practitioner. The
need Of skilful men who know how to treat
intelligenty the disease of animals is
shown by a few statistics giving the
number and value of some of the dome s.
tic animals in the United States. These
statistics were taken four years ago.

traordinary cases cited in the histories OF
other wars. Take, for instance, the
charge of the Light Brigade at Balaklava
the charge OF the Six Hundred. Lord
Cardigan took 673 officers and men into
that action; they lost 113 killed and 134
wounded; total, 247, or 36.7 per cent.

Pennsylvania lost IS per cent. at Gettys-

FAeCINATING BUT DANGEROUS Sport
The most intensely fascinating and by
far the most dangerous way OF hunting
the Bengal tigers is the way most Of the
natives do It. They collect in tbror8s CT
hundreds and go to the woods, with half
bred bull and terrier dogs, rifles of 40
caliber and innumerable spears, and
drive the tigers out of their jungles.
The vicious dogs go in ana hound them
and snari and howl threateDingiy. The
tigers are gradually driven from point to
point by the bowling dogs and shrieking
natives, and are finally worked into
gigantic and strong netting nine or ten
feet high and with interstices seven or
eight inches square. Then the chetties,
as these queer natives are called, range
themselves along the sides, and when
the tigers iunge at them they are met at
every point by cleaning spears. Such
bowling and snarliDg, combined with the
shouts of the natives, sounds like the
wailing of the damned. The native
women are here, too, and lend their aid,
and when the government officers join in

4 QUEER SAVINGS BANK.-There is a
certain young student at the Boston
School of Technology whose method of
regulating his personal expenditures is
50 strikingly original as to be worthy of
description. Like many another youth
Of salad age, he fluids it impossible to re-
frain from squandering his money. 1t
simply burns hole in his pocket No
matter how much he is supplied with, it
Is all expended in frivolousness as soon
as lie gets it. This weakness Of his has
given much pain to the young gentle
mans relatives, ard to himself has been
source of no little embarrassment. So,
10 get over the difficulty, he he has hit
upon the following plan:
Upon receiving the check for fort
nights allowance, intended to cover his
living expenses, be first liquidates any
Indebtedness that may be outstanding to
his lodging house keeper and washer
woman and converts the whole Of the
balance into 80 cent silver pieces. Then
going to his room aud closing the door,
he takes the coins by haudfuls and seat
tered them broadcast about the floor. A
few Of those which remain in plain sight
he puts in his pockets. When they al e
spent he picks up a few more, and so on,
as necessity requires. After week or
SO has passed lie is compelled to hunt
about pretty sharply for the cash, and
the last days of the fortnight find him
grabbing under the wash, stand and the
bureau, poking beneath the bed and
squirting down the register in the hope
OF discovering a stray half dollar that
has Glued previous search. But, though
occasionally impoverished, he is seldom
reduced to absolute penniIcssness. The
landlady looks cut for his money, lest q
dishonest chambermaid absorb the eur
rent two weeks allowance, and thus his
pecuniary affairs administer themselves
