God Gave the Baby.

A lady walking along street came
upon a little girl wheeling baoy-car-
riage. .,
the lady as she discovered a punk face
done up in oream-colored shawl
"Whose child is it 2"
"Mine." the little girl answered.
"Oh, you mean that it Is your little
brother or sister ?"
"No; mean that he is not my
brother. but is mine-my child.
"You are very young mother.
81 amt no mother" =,
"Then why should you say that the
baby is yours 2" the lady mischievously
asked. =.
"Cause God sent IL TO me. MY
mamma asked mo IL didn't want III,
tie baby in the house. an l said yes, an
she said if l prayed for one God would
send it, an then said would pray Tor
a little sister, cause [ like girls better

All Watches Compasses.


A few days ego / was standing by an
American gentleman, when | expressed
q wish to know which point was the
north. He at once pulled ont his watch,
looked at it, and pointed TO the north.
/ asked him whether he had compass
attached to his watch. "All watches,
he replied, "are compasses. Then he
explained to me how this ives. Point
the hour hand to thesun and the south IS
exactly half way between the hour
and the figures XII on the watch.
For instance, suppose that it IS
4 o'clock. Point the hand indl-
eating to the sun and III on the watch
is exactly south. Suppose that il Is
s o'clock, point the hand indicating 8 to
the sun, and the figure Y on the watch
is due south. My American friend was
quite surprised that l did not know this.
Thinking that very possibly l was igno-
rant OF II thing that every one else knew,
and happening TO meet Mr.. Stanley, l
asked that eminent traveller whether he
was aware of this simple mode Of discov-
ering the points of the compass. lie
said that he had never heard of il. l
presume, therefore, that the world is in
the Same state of ignorance. Amalh is
proud of having been the home of the
inventor of the compass. / do not know
what town boasts of my American friend
as a citizen.

The Underfcd British Soldier.
TThe Nineteenth Ceutury.l

Recruits when they join the army first
cannot be too well fed, because, coming
as they DO from q class which, as rule,
is irreg ular in its habits, after undergo
ing a regular system Of drill and a
regular manner of living, they are moro
hungry at meal times than they other
wise would be- In fact, they are always
hungry, and OF this state they are often
reminded while on drill; for it is a
favorite saying OF every drill-ser-
geant, when he is instructing the re-
cruits how TO stand, "a soldier should
always have a full chest and an empty
stomach" .Begorra, said vivacious
Irishman tome one day, "Sergcant,
there's no use on him remindin' me o
that for since / listed me chest has
always been fuller than me stomach,
glory be TO God an if / thought the
Queen was so hard up, wouldn't have
taken her shillin I'd given one." That
witty remark really epitomized the feel
ings Of all the recruits after they first
ION, so badly are they fed. /, however,
as an Englishman, though | appreciated
the mans mirth. said to him
seriously: "Tben you didn't enlist from
want p" " Oh, no, Sergeant. " he replied,
al bad lasbin's O. that before / joined
the army" This quick answer also ex-
plains why it Is these poor fellows are
slow to complain; for, as a general rule,
a man chooses the army as last re-
source, when he has suffered all the
pangs Of hunger and oil the miseries
consequent either on poverty or i'm
providence. still. if it is the desire OF
the nation to have fine soldiers, 1t must
not hesitate TO feed them as men who
work hard, and who should be made ca
pablo of enduring, in time Of war. great
uriyations.

Lions Leave n M-nsgerie.

The African Diamond Fields Adrer-
tier contains an account OF the ecene
witnessed after all the animals in Fills
menagerie had been allowed to escape
by come person who ia supposed to have
had q grudge against the proprietor.
This person was evidently well acqueint-
cd with the construction of the cages,
and chose the day and hour when the
supervision was most relaxed, and made
good his escape. The four lions. on
bounding from their cages. attacked the
jumping horse, aud the animals screams
avoke the four attendants.
Hastily arming themselves with stable
forks, they rushed to the scene Of the
disturbance, evidently ignorant of the
numerical strength Of the foe they had
10 contend with. These four gallant
fellows met fearful death. From the
last few dying words Of one Of the Caffre
boys to Mr.. Fills when he arrived upon
the scene, it appears that he and his
mates, when endeayoring to beat back
the lion Pacha, were attacked in the rear
bv the three other lions and one OF the
cheetahs they were then literally torn
LIMB from limb by the ferocious brutes.
and the scene Of their death is one Of
indescribable horror. Having tasted
blood. the lions (male and female), the
cheetahs. the wolves, and the leopsrds
seemed to regain all the ferocity of their
class, and Mr.. Filis's four Hungarian
horses and the performing horses fell
yictims
The elephant, frightened at the noise,
in It's endeavor to escape, burst through
tine heavy iron gate and rushed into the
street, followed by nearly the whole of
the animals, who appear to have been
startled by something while engaged IN
their work Of carnage in the stables. A
cabman residing at Beaconsfeld-Nel-
sOn-had n narrow escape. Hearing the
noise. he drove down from Main street
TO see the animals rush out. he likened
the scene TO the exit from Noah's ark.
An elephant came first, and a few
seconds aftervard tumbled ont q
confused mob of lions, wolves,
hyenas, balloons, leopards, cheetahs,
and jackals. The wolves, with the instinct
of their race, Immediately rushed upon
Nelson's horses and two of the lions at
tackled them also. Strange TO say, they
left the man himself unmolested, aud be
managed to climb up a post at Glovers
Athletic Car and secure his safety IN one
Of the rooms When last he saw his
horses they were galloping madly down
the road snorting and screaming with
fear and pain, followed by the wolves
and two Of the lions. The remainder OF
the animals. Nelson says, dispersed IN
all directions. But few Of the animals
had been recaptured at the time the mail
was dispatched, but ono Of the lions and
o jackall had been shot.

Having His Own WAY.
fTawaa GffffrUa

"Why did you run away from
homer" asked Joshua Whitcomb of the
ragged young tramp.
because wanted to have my own
way"
"Well, you look as though you'd had
IT," is Whitcombs sententious reply.
The boy who is eager TO have his own
way is continually met with, and many
times it is an extremely hard way. The
tyranny OF the home Is OF the mildest
sort, he finds, compared with what he
has TO undergo in endeayoring to have
his own way. Many times he falls into
evil company, and in initiating their
way and making it his own he discovers
himself on the way to reformatory or
prison.
Ask the wretched old tramp whom
YOU find sitting on the park bench how
he began his downward career, and if he
be candid he will tell you it was by try
ing TO have his own way.

A total of thirty-fve days, SIX hours !
Rut these calculations include slow
stages of travel. Forty miles an hour
on the two great trans-continental roads
will reduce the time by more than five
davs: and such time will certainly be
made in answer TO commercial necessi-
ties Already steamers swift as the great
Atlantic vessels are being constructed
for the great Pacific run.
Thus by mechanical suppression OF
time the planet Is ever being made
smaller for us.
Perhaps when it shall have begun to
seem too small man will turn more readily
70 the study of that vaster world within
himself. whose deeps are yet unsounded
and untravelled, whose only horizon Is
the infinite.
