after the occurrence she was attacked
by aches and pains, and had to take to
her bed. At first her jaws commenced
to stiffen, and then each muscle in the
body, one by one, became rigid and USE
less, the teeth clenched firmly. She lay
on her back for many days, paralyzed in
body, but sound in mind. Her hands,
with fingers clenched, were drawn up
over her shoulder, and every other
limb was perfectly rigid. During
the many long weary days and
nights, while she lay facing

was fed my means of clay pipe, tho

functions. She became enabled to take
proper nourishment, and now is on the
road to recovery. She was attended by
Dr. Phelan, who says that the case is q
most unusual one.

he Active IN Christ.

Christian life in our day is full Of
activity. 1t finds pleasure in plan
ming, giving and working for the
growth OF Christs kingdom. The
spirit OF conservation gives JOY TO all
Christians who recognize IL and as
pires confident hopes in the aggressive
movements OF the church. But 1t con-
ccals, also, a great peril. All Chris
tian power springs from communion
with God, and from the indwelling of
divine grace. One can do good TO
others only as his own heart pulsates
with love 10 Jesus. and has a present
experience OF his love. We can inn
part only what we receive. Any
Christian labor will be fruitless. and
Christian zeal be like sounding brass,
unless the soul waits daily upon God.
and finds new strength In prayer and
in the study OF the Bible.

Feathercd Pirates.

A pair OF robins, as has been their
custom for several years past, recently
commenced building their summer
home in an elm tree on the sidewalk in
front Of my house. says contributor
TO Forest and Stream, and the work
went bravely on. with song and rapid
nutter Of wings. Suddenly the songs
ceased and work on the nest stopped.
But it was not left alone. for a band OF
miserable sparrows attacked, and, IL
possible. were more active in its de-
struction than the robins had been In
its construction.
A few days later the robins began
another nest in tall maple tree near
by. and the work was pushed rapidly.
But few days since il was evident
that something was wrong again.
There was a great cutlery on the part
Of the robins, and an unmusical
chatter by pugnacious sparrows. The
latter were again victorious. and Mt
once began To demolish the nearly
finished nest, which work they soon
completed-strings. grass. feathers,
etc. being scattered promiscuously
about.
HIS WAS nOl ulls iOi lut NOloAt lOi
the male robin was seen hanging by a
cord fastened TO its neck and one wing
dead, and not more than ten feet from
the place where the nest had been.
The sight attracted the attention of
passers by. but IL was so high that
none cared TO ascend the tree to get the
bird.
Being anxious TO know the facts as
TO the reason Of the birds death.
spliced my stiff trolling rod, with a
knife attached TO the tip. TO n long
pike pole. and with the help of n neigh
Dor / succeeded in cutting the string
above the bird.
An examination showed that a string.
common wrapping twine, was passed
through the wing quilts. around the
neck. and knotted SO tightly that con-
siderable patience was required to re-
move IL, SO that death must have been
soon affected.
The male being dead and the nest
destroyed, the female has departed, so
that we are no longer favored with
their sweet morning and evening songs.
The question now is: "Who killed
cock rohinp" Was Il suicide from TO
peated defeats. or was ho accidentally
caught in the string9 Or was II pre-
meditated murder on the part Of
piratical sparrows?
