A Child Victim.

An incident reported by Missionary r.
Darby, who is laboring on the Congo,
shows how inhuman heathenism is, and
how remorseless are its cruelties. He
says: GA man died near the station
where | work. The people, as usual,
concluded that some witch had caused
his death by her spell, so they gathered
together to try to find the witch. They
came to the conclusion that the wife Of
the deceased was the guilty woman.
They took her, cut her head off, threw
her body into the river, buried the head
in the ground until the flesh decaycd,
and stuck the skull on the roof of the
house. Fathers, listen mothers, listen
and then think of the darkness of Africa.
That man and woman had little baby
that could scarcely walk. There was
not man or woman in all these towns
that would give the child bit of bread
or drink OF water; not a soul would
allow it to come into their house. They
left the poor little thing outside, and |
saw it wasting away. | said to one of
my boys, Whose child is that 1T

Flowing In Peru.

The land in Peru is plowed in the follow
ing manner: From six to a dozen teams
of oxen are put to work on single field
of twenty or thirty acres. The oxen are
"yoked" by tying heavy beam across
their foreheads. To this beam the plow
is attached all the force being applied by
the head instead of the shoulders. The
plow is crooked stick or branch of a
tree, the point faced with iron. The He
brews, when they titled the soil in the
time of Moess had a plow made in the
same way. Intelligent Peruvians contend
that they do not need to pillow more than
two or three inches deep--simply enough
to loosen the soil so as to enable the seed
to take root. The water used in irrigating
is said to be rich in plant food, further
obviating the necessity of deep plowing.
1t may also be added that improved
plows, suitable for this country, are now
manufactured in Europe and the United
States, but it goes without saying that
they are very different from the plow used
by the American farmer. They are light
and small, having close resemblance to
the original crooked stick. Another pecu-
liarity of every Peruvian plow is that it
has only one handle. The driver carries
IN one hand large goad twelve or fifteen
feet in length, with which to touch uo
his team and he manages the plow with
the other hand.

Curious Race.

An interesting paper was recently read
at a meeting of the China branch of the
Royal Asiatic Society, at Shanghai, by
DR.. Macgowan, the well-known scholar,
on the aborigines whom the Chinese
found on the Yellow River in arriving
from Akkad. These people, unlike the
Chinese, were destitute of civilization.
The Chinese invaded their country before
the invention of the cuneiform writing
of Akkad, and used knotted cords or
"quipos' in keeping records. These
quipos, according to DIR. Macgowan,
were the basis of the archaic annals, and
from them the earliest form of Chinese
written characters was developed The
prae- Chinese race had several curious
customs and practices of reformation,
such as drinking through the nostrils,
and substituting dogs teeth for their
own front teeth. They also tlattened
the head like the Chinook Indians of
British Columbia, and they attempted to
raise a polydactylous race by destroying
all children born with the usual number
of fingers and toes. The result was
tribe with twelve fingers and as many
toes. Amazons also existed among them,
and "gynarchy," or political state, in
which women were dominant over men.
To this day among the original tribes
the chieftaincy belongs to women Lon

The killing and skinning of the seals
is altogether performed by native Aleuts,
who are paid 40 cents a skin for their
work. From the fat of the seal an oil is
obtained which affords a most brilliant
and beautiful light. The seal skins are
taken to London in their salted state, and
are there delivered at an establishment
which is one of the two great fur mar
kets of the world, the other being at
Leipsic. TO these two emporiums all the
furs Of the world are brought by the pro-
ducers and sorted out by experts accord
ing to quality and colors. Once year
each of the two great establishments has
an auction sale to which fur buyers come
from everywhere All the furs are cata-
logued so that merchant can procure
anynumbcr of any sort of skins, perfectly
matched, without seeing them at all be
fore he makes the purchase. All the
seal skins of the world go to the London
emporium, because nowhere else than in
! England is the art of preparing them
understood. In the British metropolis
there are many big factories, employing
| thousands of workmen, devoted to this
industry. - Washington Star

SUNSET CALM.
The dying sunbeams softly play

The dying sunbeams softly play
On fields of tawny grain;
The rabbits housed beneath the bay
That skirts the scented lane.
No breeze the leaf to music wakes
In bowers green and cool;
No swallows wing in circles breaks
The mirrors of the pool.
No sheep-bell tinkles from the fold
And In the lilac glow
That steals o'er natures cloth of gold
The shadows longer grow,
And melt into the silence deep,
Unbroken as dream,
That settles like wreath Of sleep
On crimsoned mead and stream.

Hettsr rhan an A1ibi.

1t was a murder case. A young gen
tleman of large property was accused
of poisoning an enemy by s~trychnine.
The poisoning occurred at a hotel, IN
q bar-rooIn, with many persons in the
adjoining room. From the time OF
the death it was apparent that the
strychnine must have been receiyedl IN
a glass of beer at half past elght
o'clock in the evening. The counsel
for the defence called as his last wit
ness a young and attractive lady, who
testified that she was engaged to the
defendant and hoped soon to marry
him; that on the evening in question,
at nine o'clock the defendant came to
the house where she had been spend
ing part of the evening for her, but
arrived about two minutes too late,
and she saw him coming out OF the
house as she was turning into her
own. The Judge who presided at the
trial called the defendants counsel,
and in n whisper asked him whether
he supposed that the testimony
proved an alibi for half past eight
o'clock, as the points of location were
but a moments walk apart; II not,
what on earth did he give this testi-
mony for. Counsel replied:-sI do
not suppose it is an alibi, Judge, but
do you suppose that any jury on earth
will believe that this young man Went
with murder on his countenance and
murder in his mind from the body of
his victim to the girl he loved?" The
defendant WaS acquitted.
