months illness, aged "a years, IL

Our mother now has gone to rest
Beneath the tree OF life;

So Tree from pain and strife.

Their pain dsturbs no more;
But Jesus In his arms At last

And shall forever be;

Well meet again, In answer To our prayer.

voice we loved Is stllled;
A place is vacant in our home,
Which never can be iilled.

We have all heard Baron Munchau-
sens story of how he killed two lions
at one shot. Sir Samuel Baker had a
similar experience with buffaloes, al
though not in the same way as the
noble baron. He says: upon two oc-
casions on the plain Of Minneria l
killed two buffalSes with one bullet
from the deadly three-ounce rifle.
discovered that fight was going on
between two very large bulls, which
were far too engaged to notice my
presence. Seeing the opportunity 1
fired exactly through the shoulder Of
the nearest and 1t dropped dead upon
the spot, thus unlocking the horns
and releasing its antagonist This ran
for short distance, and then hating
IL faced about, reeled to and fro for
about minute with bloody foam issu-
ing from its mouth, and rolled sudden
ly upon its side, dead" Upon another
occasion he fired upon a herd passing
by at a gallop. The ball passed COM
pletely through two buffaloes running
side by side and they both dropped

CARRIAGE TALK.

The popular hanson derives its distin-
gushing title from a certain Mr. Hanson.
The brougham, which was first used by
the famous Lord Brougham, took its title
from that nobleman.
Landau, n city in Germany, was the To-
cality in which was first made the style
of vehicle bearing that name
Hacks originally termed hackney coach
es, because they were drawn by hackney,
a name applied to easy-going, safe pacing
horses
William ", who prior to becoming
king of England had been the duke of
Clarence, gave the latter name to his
favorite mode of conveyance.
The old fashioned gig was given that
name from its peculiar jumping and rock
ing motion, the word being taken from the
French gigue, signifying jig, or lively
dance.
The term coach is derived from the
French coche, diminutive form of the
Latin conchula shell, in which form the
body of such conveyance, was originally
fashioned.
Coupe is French in origin. being derived
fro,u the verb copper (coopay), to cut.
This was considered an appropriate desig-
nation because it greatly resembled .
coach with the front part cut Off
The word sulky, as applied to a wheeled
conveyance, had its origin in the fact that
when it first appeared the person who saw
it considered that none but sulky, selfish
man would ride in such an affair, which
afforded accommodation to but one individ-
ual The strange title was never changed.
Seldom, If ever, is the full term omni-
bus applied to those numbering vehicles
With the characteristic breviY of English
speaking races the title has been changed
to bus. These were first seen in Paris in
1897, the original name being nothing
more than the Latin word signifying ''for
all"
Cab is an abbreviation of the Italian
capriola, which is changed to cabriolet,
cabriolay in French. Both words have q
common derivative, Gabrielle, signifying a
goats leap. The exact reason for giving
1t this strange appellation is unknown, un-
less 1t Is because of the lightness and
springiness of the vehicle in its original
form.
