hours after her supposed death Mrs
Collins showed signs of animation.
Two hours later she was sitting up

lated a martelous experience. She
said that her soV had left her body

didn't you let me alone2 / don't want
to live here now, knowing what un.
speakable glories are up there" Mrs.
Collins is 3S years of age and of more
than ordinary intelligence. She told
her remarkable story calmly and
earnestly, and honestly lamcnted that
she had returned to earth again. Mrs.
Collins is positive that it was not a

was transported to heaven. Franklin

II Is quite remarkable how much
originality Of character, or nature, is
left to dogs, when we take into &C.
count that they have for more than
5000 years been domesticated, and the
companions of man. The same curious
fact is observable in the case of the Es-
quimau dogs, which have been trained
and used as draught animals for SO
many generations. In his journal
DR.. Sutherland tells how the instinct
for the chase interfered with the dogs
travelling over the ice.
There were several cracks in the
foes, in which few dovekies were
swimming about The cracks were
crossed very easily; but the dogs were
eager to go after the birds. and were
not restrained without great difficulty.
We used sort Of drag made Of
rope, which we threw on one OF the
runners OF the sledge at its fore part,
DO increased SO much, by one leaning
with all his weight upon it, that the
sledge could be brought TO stand in
short time, in spite OF all the efforts
Of the dogs going at galloping pace.
All control over the Esquimau dogs
is lost in a sledge the moment they
see an object Of pursuit. Mr. Petersen,
the native driver, says he rarely sue
ceeds in bringing them to- stand with
the whip alone, ii once they see q
black object on the ice. when they are
in high spirits.
The young dogs, which had been
accustomed TO see hardly anything cx-
traneous upon the ice around the ships
or elsewhere during the whole winter,
became very much excited on seeing a
few birds or seal on the ice, and
could hardly be kept back by the
driver and myself leaning with all
our weight upon the sledge; while the
drag underneath the runner was leav.
ing broad and rough groove in the
hard crust of snow which covered the

In person Elizabeth was little over

that were capable Of rapid changes of
expression, as her hazel eyes flashed
With anger or sparkled with merri-
ment Her portraits appear to have
been all more or less ''idealized; !"
their number is so great that it is to be
wondered that no monograph has yet
been attempted dealing with them at
all adequately. By far the most i'm.
pressive picture of her which has been
engraved is Mark Gerards portrait at
Burleigh House; it forms the fronts
piece to the first volume of Wright's
elizabeth and Her Times" The
daughter Of Henry VIII and Annie
Boleyn could hardly have missed in
heriting some of the personal beauty
OF her parents, but she was emphati-
cally her fathers child. From him
she got her immense physical vigor,
her magnificent constitution, her
powerful intellect, O frame which
seemed incapable of fatigue, and q
nervous system that rendered her al
most insensible 10 fear or pain. Her
life was the life Of man, not Of wo-
man; she could hunt all day, dance or
watch mosques and pageants all night,
till the knees Of strong men trembled
under them as they YEARLY waited in
attendance upon her person; yet she
never seemed to suffer from the inn
mense tension at which she lived.
With her amazing energy, her want
of all sympathy for weakness, her
fierce willfulness and self assertion,
and q certain coarseness Of fiber, il
was inevitable that she should be un.
feminine. Dictionary Of National Bi-

What He Needs.

What is needed to help the average
dairyman is the information how to
improve the herd already in his hands.
He needs to be taught to test each COW
separately, both for quantity and for
quality, and to have the nerve to dis
pose of the non-paying ones, while
building on those which turn him a
profit. He needs to know that like
produces like in the animal as we'll as
in the vegetable world; that good ami
mails produce good offspring, and poor
ones as certainly bring forth poor pro
geny; that the male is half the herd in
breeding. and that he cannot expect
to improve his herd without a good
sire; that although grade male may
be better than u scrub, pure bred
male is better than either; that the
greater and moro rapid improvement
which he produces makes him cheaper
in the end at n good round price than
either the scrub or the grade as gift;
and that il is ONLY by wedding utpoor
cows and breeding from his best ones,
from pure blood male of individual
excellence and good pedigree, that he
can in few years bring his herd up
to an average yield of 800 pounds 81
butter per COW. Prairie Farmer.

Cyclamens are in full bloom, the
seeds OF which were sown in Novcm-
Der. 1887. fourteen months from the
time the seeds were put in the ground.
AS soon rs large enough to handle,
the seedlings were transplanted about
an inch apart in shallow pans, where
they remained until they had pro-
duced several leaves, after which they
were put singly into two inch pots
and shifted into larger sizes rs their
need required, until August, when
they were given their final shift into
five and six inch pots, according to
size. The soil used was two parts

added sufficient sand to insure the free

Fanny Davenport says she has never
passed a day without pain since she
attempted to correct nature. Whcn-

actresses would rather suffer and be
shapcly than DO healthy and fat Isn't
