overlooked by any neighbours win.
aow' 1t was the family custom to
ieave the curtains up in the evening,
and let the CHEEKY light OF the student
lamp which stood on the large reading
table shine out.
one evening, as the lady sat on the
step, she saw large toad hopping on
ehe grass toward her. When he had
come within about eight inches of the
window, he suddenly settled himself
INTO the long grass, having selected as
his resting place little hollow, SO
that only the very top OF his head and
ms cleaning eyes showed above the
grass.
There he sat, without moving, until
the dampness sent his observer into
the house. The next evening she found
that the toad had already taken his
place when she seated herself on the
step and on several successive even
lngs he was sittlngin exactly the same
spot by the time the sun had fairly
set.
The lady's curiosity was by this
time aroused to such degree that she
determined to defy the dampness. and
stay in her position on the step until
she saw what the toad accomplished
In his hiding place. The next evening,
therefore, she provided herself with n
thick shawl, and took her accustomed
seat, a little later than usual.
As the light faded the toad rose
from his position and hoped towards
her a little way; then, after solemnly
and anSiously regarding her for some
moments, he returned to his hollow,
evidently deciding that she was n
harmless person, not bent on making
trouble for him, as he had at first
feared.
When the lamp in the window was
lighted, it seemed to her that the
toad raised his head little and
took on an attitude OF great Wig
lance. The cause was soon appar-
ent.
After a few moments q large moth,
attracted by the light, dashed against
the window in n vain endeavor to
gain entrance. After fluttering wildly
against the glass, it suddenly dropped,
blinded to the ground, and the toad
sprRng forward and secured it.
This was only his first victim, and
at the end OF half an hour the watch
er went into the house with her Curl
osity fully satisfied. Some one to
whom she told the story suggested
that the toad might have happened
on the favorable position the first
night; but his friend persisted that he
had discovered it by his own unaided
intelligence.

have not tried skating, however limit

a story of a Flood.

A pathetic story is associated with
the little village OF Suss, in the Lower
Engadine, n wild bleak valley OF Swift
erland. Que day flood caused by
the melting of many glaciers, came
roaring down thevalley. The pastors
duties had taken him into the village,
and his wife, fearing that he might be
over taken by the terrible flood, hur.
ried down to the bridge that separated
them from the village, inst as her hus-
band reached the opposite side.
Without n thought OF her own dan
ger, she called out: stay, ulrich; l
will come and help you to cross over"
Just as she reached the middle pier
the flood came rushing down the gorge
in great force, and in a moment swept
away the two side piers, leaving her
standing alone on the tottering bridge.
The brave woman clasped her hands
for moment in prayer, and then
those on the mountain side perceived
an expression pass over her lace as
though she had suddenly remembered
something. They saw her hurriediy
tear away the keys from her girdle and
fling them ashore to her children, who
followed her down to the bridge; and
they heard her voice sound above the

A second later, and the devoted
mother had disappeared down the
ravine. Even in her own terrible dam
ger she had recollected that the keys
OF the cupboard were in her girdle, and
she knew that the children would want
their evening meal.-Little Folks.

The tcronq soay,

The acrong sody,
with Catarrh, is to stop it without
curing it. The poisonous, irrita-
ting snuffs, strong caustic solutions,
creams" balms and the like may,
perhaps, palliate for a time. But
they may drive the disease to the
lungs. The wrong way is full of
danger.
The right way is q proved one.
It's with DR.. Sage's Catarrh Rem
edy. 1t cures, perfectly and per-
manently, by its mild, soothing,
cleansing and healing properties,
the worst cases of Chronic Catarrh.
1t has proved itself right, thou

else has failed.
And this makes its proprietors
willing to prove that it's the right
thing for you, no matter how bad
your case or of how long standing.
If they can't cure your Catarrh,
they'll pay you $500 in cash.
They mean it.
They're certain of their medi-
