How the Char unbend..


 He and his wife are never happier than when they can leave all state cares behind them, throw off the yoke of etiquette and live for their children at Gatschina, at Peterhof, or, best of all, in Denmark, in which country the czar untends in man ner never seen elsewhere.
 There is not so great a romp as he among all his nephews and nieces. He is master of all the childish revels. To these princes and princesses the autocrat of all the Russias IS simply "Uncle Sasha, and cries of Uncle Sasha. Uncle Sashar resound all over the place. A favorite pastime of his is to stand amid the merry throng and challenge them to pull him down They never succeed, either separately or unitediy.
 The czar has wonderful strength of muscle. He can bend horseshoe by mere force of hand. Once in Denmark, while a conjurer was showing his skill, the czar offered to produce specimen of his own abili- ties. He took a pack of cards and tore them through with the greatest ease.
 At Gatschina he loves to go fishing with a harpoon by torchhght Like MT. Gladstone, he is fond of felling trees, but rnlike that gentleman, he equally enjoys saving them into lengths. and Courts of EIrrope.

A Bird That Is Feared,

The elster (pica candata) is a bird that is respected and feared through ouI south Germany It belongs to the raven tribe and is about the size of a dove, with black and white feathers and long pointed tail. It builds it's nest in orchards and its fife Is sacred. If 1t is seen three t1mes in succession on the same house top in place remote from its home, it is believed to be a sure sign of death in that house If it flies ever a house where any one Is ill and gives it's peculiar cry the sick person is sure to die, but if 1t does not scream the patient may recover. Itis better for the sick person if the bird does not come near
 No one could be hi->ad to bother these birds for fear they might seek revenge, and if by chance one of them should die, it is sign of bad luck to the owner of the property Eiarz was found. The bird is a valuab3e insect destroyer, and in this way probably more than compensates for the fear 1t occasions among the farmers-Philadelphia Ledger.

rsld Dogs fin the North.

Tn the Lake of the Woods country, waich may be described as wilder ziess of forest, rock and brushwood, 6 race of wild dogs have established themselves and are increasing in numbers so rapidly that fears are en- teTtained that the animals will yet become troublesome. When the Canadian Pacific railway was under construction the camps of the work men had of course to be frequently moved. and dogs were often left be- l'ind, and eventually, like wolves and foxes, found means of sustaining themselves.
 The animals are large, lean, short haired and generally red or red and white in color They are exceeding ly wild and fly on the first approach of man. In winter they live by catching rabbits that abound in the wilderness of brushwood; in summer the wild dogs catch fish that crowd the smaller streams that connect in- land lakes. The Indians detest the wild dogs, as they pursue game and take the bait from traps and are a general nuisance. Sometimes wild dog is taken in a trap that has been set for ether animals, but the beasts are exceedingly cunning, swift and watchful-Plot Mound Sentinel

The River of King Midas.

If Ceres left the Old World when the worship of her went out of fash ion. it must have been to the valley of the Red river that she came But if mythology is suggested at all by a study of this marvellous region, 1t is in the recollection of the fabled river Pactolus, wherein King Midas washed of his power to turn into gold all that he touched. That may well have been the stream that once swelled from side to side of this val ley, for truly it's sediment retains little less than Midas power.-Julian Ralph in Harper's.

A Brave Soldier. but Not Warrior.

A Brave Soldier, but Not a Warrior.
 ''The soldier is always more or less brave" remarked the veteran, ''and even when he is not at all inclined to heroism he will, when the tug-of-war comes, rise superior to himself and do great deeds of valor. It's funny to hear a man you know, who will go right up to a cannon's mouth when 1t Is loaded to the muzzle and a man standing at the vent ready 10 pull the string, express his feelings when the spirit isn't moving him. Once when we were down there before Petersburg, when the shot was tear ing up the ground in forty places at once, I was lying in a safe corner with a man who had only a few hours before come through a perfect rain of fire, carrying the flag to a point where he could shake it in the enemy's face. We got to talking about war in general and this sort of fighting, and said to him:
 "If you had your choice, would you have war this way, or out in the open, face to facel'
 There's only one way I'd have war; he said sharply.
 'How's thatf Iasked.
 Have it over, and that blamed quick, he replied, and ten minutes afterward he was doing deed that won him his shoulder straps. De troit Free Press.
