Approaching the Country.

1t is said that we never learn to appre-
ciate any blessing fully until we have been
deprived of it. A boy who had been accus-
toned from infancy to the pure spring
water from the granite hills of New Eng
land was sent to school at a distance from
home where the water was impregnated
with minerals and had brackish taste
He said that he had never realized before
that there was any real pleasure in drink
ing glass of cold water, but he suddenly
came to the conclusion that it was the
greatest luxury in the world, and that for
months he used to wake up in the night
and lie awake thinking how he would
drink when he got back to his fathers well.
He felt as if he could spend two or three
days on his first return doing nothing else.
People who have always lived in the
country have little of that keen relish for
it's pleasures which one experiences who
has been for months or perhaps for years
shut up in the city. The inhalation of the
pure air, the chance to walk on the soft
ground instead of the unyielding stone
pavement, the songs Of the birds, the shade
and the blossoms of the trees, the hum
ming bees, the piping frogs, all the myriad
forms of life and beauty peculiar to the
country-it is only the tired, long confined
denizen of the city who fully enjoys and
appreciates them. When he escapes into
the country, he feels translated as it were
to a new and delightful state of existence

The Hundred and E'ifty-first Psalm

Your Bible, if it is of the regulation sort
closes the book of Psalms with the one
hundred and fiftieth. In the Greek Bible
however, there is another, entitled "A
Psalm of Daniel after he had slain Go
Hath" Athanasius praises it very highly
in his synopsis of the Holy Scriptures ;
1t was versified by Apollinarius Alexan
drius, A. D. 800, and Latin translation OF
it may be found in the works of Fabrcus
The English translation is by Barring
Gould, the well known antiquarian:
PSALM Gil.
First-I was small among my brethren, and
growing up in my fathers house, kept his
sheep.
Secondly hands made the organ and my
fingers shaped the psaltery.
Third-And who declared unto my Lord. He
the Lord, he heard all things.
Fourth-He sent his angels and they took me
from my fathers sheep. He Amounted me In
mercy from his JUNCTION.
Fifth-Great and goodly are my brethren
but with them God was not well pleased.
SIXTH went to meet the giant stranger
and he cursed me by all his idols.
Seventh-But l smote off his head with his
own drawn sword, and | blotted out the re-
proach of Israel.

TAKEN FOR THE MURDERER.
Julian Raiph's Narrow Escape From q
Dangerous situation.


Once, when | was investigating the hor-
rible and even yet mysterious murder Of a
young girl in New Jersey village, was
taken for the murderer by her relatives
whom could not blame, for they were ig-
norant, wrought up to an ugly pitch and
suspicious of every stranger who came upon
the scene. The girl had been buxonl and
pretty, and yet it must have been stranger
who slew her, they thought, for none who
knew her could find 1t in his heart or in
his nature to attempt to wrong her. In
the course of a search of the neighborhood
l visited the home of the afflicted family
more than once, and on the last occasion
was invited in to see the body. AS | could
not judge what manner Of girl she had been
without seeing her, / went in. Her three
grown up brothers were there, and as
stood beside the coffin one returned to the
door of the room, closed it and put his back
against it, The Others then attempted to
carry out project they had cherished, but
concealed, which was to have me touch the
body in order that they might see whether
blood flowed from the wounds, according
as an old superstition holds that such
dumb mouths will accuse murderer At
the moment would not have done as they
wished for a fortune.
PUT your hand on her." said one.
81 will not"
"Touch her with your hand. You must,
tell you," said another.
You cannot get away. Touch her"
They were terribly in earnest.
81 will do nothing of the Sort" said,
| and then | made very short, but very
earnest speech in which l explained who
was and how easily they could satisfy
| themselves about me. And now" said |,
advancing to the door, stand aside and
end this folly-quickr'
He obeyed and in an instant the air of
outdoors tasted almost as sweet as any
thing that / ever drew down my throat

An Honest Gas Meter.

The penny-in-the-slot system has been
applied very successfully to gas meters in
several large English cities. In its lates,
form the meter has three dials, marked
re. S. and D." and no sooner has a penny
been dropped into the slot than the hand
of the I'D" dial records it, When II pen
MES have been dropped in, the ID" dial
stands at 80" while the hand on the so
dial records that one shilling's worth Oh
pennies are in the drawer, and so on until
ECO worth of gas has been paid for. The
hands can only move one way, so that the
householder practically gets an indispu
table receipt for the pennies he puts into
the slot and the total amount he has paid
for his gas An indicator shows how many
feet of gas are paid for but unconsumed. .
