Gazelles and Human Sentiment,

In the Jardin DIES Plantes, at Paris,
in fine grassy inclosure, is a groop of
tiny animals, the smallest antelopes
known. They will come, about the
| size of so many cats, close behind
| their low wire grating, and stand and
doubtfully gaze at you with erroneous
liquid eyes. And such is the effect of
their littleness, their timorousness,
their almost absurd delicacy-so
small, so delicate, those little, little
hoofs, those little tender limbs, those
fragile fawn-colored sides, that little
humid twitching muzzle; so small, and
yet so keenly, TREMENDOUSLY perceptive
and so intensely sensitive; so little, vet
al alive and quivering with nerves; so
small, so weak, SO helpless, and appar-
emily SO untitled for aught except to
apprehend; such minute atoms and
specxs Of sentiment being. so lost amid
universe's vast incomprehensilGlitv
that my heart has been smitten to
look upon those miniature living things,
with the quite inordinate frailty of
Their body and the disproportionat
blgness of their eyes.
symbols or suggestions of human
lty's every aspect may, one fancies, be
discovered in animal creation. And
think those antelopes are symbols of
a state of soul rare enough
among men, aud yet too freuuent.-

How to Drink Milk.

Some complain that they cannd
drink milk without being "distressa

milk is not well borne is due to ths

forms i'll one solid, curdled mass, diff.
cult OF digestion. If, on the other hand,
the same quantity is slipped, and tbrss

stomach, it is, so divided that when
coagulatcd, as it must be by the gas

instead OF being in ono hard CONDENSED
