THE A OF LIFE.
How Abraham and Sarah Regaled Their
CelHBtlal vigltUrs.

Four thousand years ago Abraham.
the father of the faithful. said to his
angelic visitors: Rest yourselves
under the tree and l will fetch bread
10 comfort your hearts" It seems to rs
now hat bread would be a very simple
and unworthy repast with which to
regale celestial visitants. If such un-
wonted guests were to honor US. but
In those days Of grand simplicity
meat seems not 10 have been so highly
esteemed as the fruits Of the soil.
Bread was her the staff of life. and
when Abraham wished to offer it to
the angels he called Sarah, his proud
and beautiful wife, to kindle a fire

of note, too. by modern honsekeepers.

not find it beneath her dignity to make
and bake the bread for her
husbands visitors. The table OF
Northumberland. the Babylonish
King. was furnished with meat and
wine, but Daniel at his court. asked
for ''pulse." u name for vegetables of
any kind that grow in pods. and water
TO drink. And after ten days, the
Bible tells us. the c~ountcnances of
Daniel and his companions were
fairer and fatter in flesh than all who
ate of the Kings moat. Vegetable
food seems to have been thought
amply sufficient for the food of man in
ancient days. and the pyramids were
built, it is said, by men who lived SOLE
ly on %lentils. which are seed plants OF
tho nature Of beans or peas, from which
4 sort of meal called pulse is made. In
the time Of Noses n dish Of lentils was
considered u dish worthy Of royal
tables. Our present way of living

OUR %CouMrRY's NAME.

Csa There Not He Found coms Othss
Title Than Tho United statssS"
Probably the worst name for a coun.
try known to history is tie United
States OF America 1t Is ambiguous,
may mean either a nation or a con-
fcderacy. and has two senses in the
Constitution. It is not so trivial as
New Found Land. but it is longer, and
does not admit of shortening as does
the name of our neighbor island to
Newfoundland. New South Wales is
almost as bad. and all three are awk.
ward beyond redemption.
The test of the name Of a country is
In whether it admits Of a ~deriyatiye
gentle noun and adjective. Europe
gives us European; Britain, British;
Cyprus. Cypriote. and Siam. Siamese.
These are good as names. But no
man a bring himself to say that he
Is a New South Welshman. or that he
is n United States of American. And

ginian, from South Carolina a South
Carolinian; but how does a man from
Massachusetts, pronounce his name?
Only Yankee. which is no less absurd
than for Enroughty to spell Darby.

New Hampshirep Still a Yankee, al

torted by calling Cass a Micbigander.
Men from Maine can still be only YAM

we believe. being called Maniacs. Tho
later names adopted by our States are
generally musical and disable, although
Ohioan is q disagreeable derivative OF
Ohio. The gentle word ought to be
Ohiote, like Cypriote, but perhaps the
people of that great State do not care
to rhyme with coyote. Wisconsin re-
fuses rs st%renuously as Michigan to ac-
cept a derivative. rs the only one pos
sible would be a Wisconsinner.
OF the present Territories Idaho has
a very sweet name, but what could its
citizens call themselvesp We suppose
the people of Utah might be Utes, but
II the Territory were to take the pro-
posed State name it would be hard to
call them D.scrctters. What we
chiefly seek in a name is thatit be easy
to pronounce and be flexible. lis
mc2ning is Of little consequence. An
aboriginal name. well built up OF

A HOME IN WEST TEXAS.
icy NED BRACKEN. I


Away from the Ice King, whose mantle of snow,
Falls to pieces as he spreads it meath your warm,
sunny glow;
Forest, prairie and mountain refusing his sway,
As they wave their green mantles to the bright
god of day.
Yes; home; Oh home in West Texas for me,
On its wiGe-spreading prairies that reach to the
sea.
Where streams, bright and sparkling, Cash mer
rily along,
And mingle their chorus with the wild warbler's
song
Here nature is faiEer, the skies are more bright,
The season more genial, the zephyrs more light.
The birds sing more blithely, throughout the long
day.
And the dun deer bounds lightly, md the flowers
at play.
And kere the Gun pauseth, he hangs in the weet,
To battle in his radiance the land he loves best.
Stream, mountain and ioweret, rejecting his ray,
As he coseth behind him, the portals of day.
My soul here grows larger, feel nearer God,
AS gaze on The footsteps, where Deity trod.
For surely He paused here; yea, rested awhile,
And your beauties sprang forth meath the Creators
