Away IN the sea- oh, wonder where,
Somewhere, somewhere in the waters blue,
Where the winds are soft and the skies are fair,
In mystic country no man ever knew,
Ny ship rides safe in Z dreamy calm;
Perhaps by an isle where the lotus Grows
Perhaps by az Isle OF the spreading palm,
Perhaps-who knows2 All, yes, who knowsi
But her cargo IS safe where'er she be,
And her crew will tire Of the lazy life,
And her Prov will cut q course through the sea

The law of Denmark now gives to
every Danish subject, man or woman,
the right to pension at sixty years of
age, except in cases of convicted crimi-
nails, of those who have fraudulently
made over their property to relatives,
of those who have brought themselves
to distress by extravaganza, or who
have during the preceding ten years re-
ceived relief from the parish, or who
have been convicted of mendicity. The
parish examines each case and reports
the amount of relief to be granted 1t
NAV be withheld if the beneficiary be-
comes ineligible through misconduct or
improper expenditure of his pension, or
if he marries. The state contributes
half the expense of the parish in dis
tributing relief provided the expendi-
ture does not exceed s270, 900 each year
from 81 to '95 and $3.50, 600 in subse-
quent years. There is no appeal from
the decision of the parish authorities

How the Infants of Certain Ebony Tribes
Take Their Morning Bath.

Take Their Morning Bath.
These Africans are very hardy race,
and think it is no doubt owing, TO a
very great extent to the Introduction
they receive at very early age TO the
strengthening effect OF cold water bath
ing. Every morning, as soon as they
leave their huts, the women file down
TO the rivers edge to give their babies
bath. The mother walks knee-deep
into the stream; then catching the half
awakened infant by the wrist, she dips
him into the chilly wafer, and holds
him firmly as ne wriggies beneath the
surface. 1t always happens that sew
eral women are so occupied al the same
time and they naturally engage in con-
versation, when the discussion is often
of so interesting a character that the
infant in the water Is almost forgotten,
till his frantic struggles and Juggling
warn the dusky parent that he Is not
amphibious- The child is then hauled
out, but before he has time 20 recover,
his violent choking and spluttering are
again lost IN the depths of the muddy
