LEGENDS ABOUT THE ROBIN.
The Little Bird as n Pfophet-HOw He Got
His Red Breast.
Scottish American!

pcoLtlsh American.
A good many superstitious ideas are pre-
valent in different localities with reference
to the robin. In some parts of Scotland
the song of this interesting little
bird is held to augur no good for the sick
person who hears it, and to those supersti-
tiously inclined much anxiety is sometimes
caused when its notes are heard near q
house where anyone happens to be i'll.
There is legend connected with the robin
which / have somewhere seen. 1t is said
that far, far away there is land of woe,
darkness, spirits of evil and fire.
Day by day does this little bird bear in
his bill drop ofwater to quench the fame.
So near the burning stream does he fly that
his feathers are seorched, and hence he is
named bronphuddu (burnt breast). There
is also legend which attributes his red
breast to his having tried to pluck spike
from the crown of thorns with which our
Lords head was encircled.

A GRATEFUL PUPIL.
He Confounds His Master by Thanking Him
for Thrn shinR,

Lewistown Journal.l
1t is related of an old-time Bath school
boy that after the master had given him a
good stiff waling, one day, the youngster
said to the teacher in melancholy and Sc
rious tone of voice:
''I thank you SIR"
'Thank mel what are you thanking me
for, you young rascal?" replied old Master
MILESTONE.
''I thought you did it for my good, sir, :"
replied Joshua.
The tone, manner and the words made the
school roar; while the stern old pedagogue
could take no exceptions to the retort and
had to, acknowledge its righteousness as
we'll as Its wit.

TINES GREAT PAGEANT.

Among the gay and romantic figures in
the shifting scenes we are contemplating are
the pioneers of the New World, Sir
Humphrey Gilbert, Sir Walter Raleigh,
and the rest, trooping by in gay apparel to
see the Queen about their perilous ventures;
before them comes Sebastian Cabot, up
from Bristol, dressed in silks and with cap
and feathers, to receive money and commits
sions from the King; and following on in
Times great pageant there shall enter gal
liant crews of sailors fresh from adventures
in the Spanish main, soldiers from daring
exploits in tine Lowlands, bronzed, strong
men in every kind of costume under the
sun, and with crowds of Londoners follow
ing in their train, men and boys Offering
themselves as recruits for service on sea and
land. Contemplating the crowd in gen.
eral way, with the eve of imagination, and
yet under the influence of current expert
ence, the people look as if they were going
to or coming from some wonderful fancy
dress ball; the men in doubtlet and hose,
the women in farthingales and diamond
decked stomachers, troopers in fantastic
garb, servants in flashing iveries, gas
conading swash-bucklers, beIted and
spurred ard with clanking swords, and
noblemen, in purple and fine linen, ogling
the professional beauties of the time. As l
said before, you will see your own ghosts of
Merrie England at Charing Gross; but 1
hope these may be among them.

be sure to cOnjure up for you Lady Jane

THE SONG OF THE Galley.

A song current in France during the
seventeenth century portrays the suffering
of the young man who wrote it, he having
been condemned to the galleys for life.
Without preserving the spirit Of the orig
inal verse, the sense is conveyed in the
following close translation:
Naked, fainting, in my shirt,
Must ever row,
Night and day, or well or hurt,
On this stormy sea?
Ceaselessly with rawhide thong,
Beaten well am ],
Ever friendless in this throng,
No one cares for me.
Bread of oats and coarsest rye
Eat ever must;
Vllest water only they supply
While labor so.
Vermin foul upon my body creep,
Ny poor flesh devoux.

Very Risky Indeed.

To tamper with symptoms Indicative Of grow
ing kidney disorder TO negl ect for brief time
needful stimulation Of the renal organs when
their inactivity points, as II always and unmis-
takably does, TO their evmtful permanent dis
ease, IL certainly very risky indeed. This Is
however, a risk that many persons perceptibly
drifting into Brights disease, diabetes, catarrh
OF the bladder, &C.. constantly incur. SO those
who read, reflect and heed the lessons Of re-
corded experience, the advisability Of using
Hostetter's stomach Bitters as q diuretic, need
scarcely more than suggestion. No fact IL
more generally admitted by the medical pro-
fession and the public than Its efficacy for the
prevention of serious renal disease. The unmed-
icated excitants OF commerce, no matter how
pure, bear in mind, react rreludicially upon
the kidneys when inactive. xrhe Bitters sub
dues malaria, constipation and rheumatism.

his wife and three children. Farbell pur..
chased tickets fer his wife, Mary E., and
