covered with wild flowers, and here and
there the sides of the monster hills had
been touched by the frost, transform

early in the afternoon. She gathered
the flowers as she went along, and al
most every step revealed some new
beauty of the floral kingdom. Her mind
was not so much upon the flowers as it
was upon him-big, bearded, honest,
manly "Chihuahua" Brown. She had
received letter from her mother that
morning, in which a remittance of S100
was acknowledged. The letter to her
mother had been sent by Chihuahua"

She started back to the trail; but,
alas! there was no trail where she
thought it should be. Again she located

Exasperating Days.

Aren't there some times in your life
when everything seems to go wrong no
matter how hard you try to have them
go right? Those are the trying days
when you want to blame all the trouble
on the way you got out of bed in the
morning or on other people instead of
looking the matter squarely in the face
and saying, Its one of my exasperating
days, and if can only keep my temper
until night comes tomorrow will be diff
ferent."
The trouble is when we feel ruffled
ourselves we somehow impart the feel
ing to others, and nine times out of ter
we either get into a quarrel or do some
ugly, horrid little thing that we wouldn't
think of on other occasions If you can
on these hateful days, manage to thinl
twice before you speak once it will say,
lot of worry on the morrow. In fact
that is good rule to go by at all times
for of all the unruly, mischief making
members the tongue is the most prom
inent.-Philadelphia Times.

the principle that warrants the tax is
faulty in any particular, it is in the fact
that the tax is not graded according to

Memories OF 1871.

On the last week in May each year the
French socialists are accustomed to cell
citrate the "bloody week." which wit
messed the downfall of the Paris COM
mune in 1871, the killing of 1000 Of the
inhabitants and the exiting of $4,000
others. AS early as 1890, under the lead
ership of Gambetta and the moderate
Republicans, general amnesty was
voted with only five or six exceptions,
to the participants of the commune. 1t
is significant also that many of the mu-
nicipal regulations which the commu-
nists demanded were afterward granted
by the chamber of deputies.
Bloody week" began on Sunday, May
81. when the Versailles troops entered
Paris by breach in the fertilization
wall which the national guards had neg
lected to defend. They came in by the
Bots de Boulogne. and terrible street
fights continued daily until on the fol-
lowing Sunday, May 2s. Marshal Nc

On May 80 the Versailles troops cap

threatened General Bergeret, who was
stationed at the Tuileries. He was
forced to retire, blowing up and burning
| the Tuileries as he left, but managed to
save the Louvre. which some of his fol-
lowers wished also to destroy. The
fighting was mostly done by national
guardsmen against heavy odds and re.

Frfendships of Snakes.

There is a certain GOODNESS almost to
be called a positive want Of cordially
between snakes and human beings.
More, the snake is never a social favor
lite among the animals called lower. No
body makes an intimate friend of a
snake. Popular natural history books
are filled and running over with anec
dotes of varying elegance and mendac
ity, setting forth extraordinary affec
ton and cooperation between cat an6
mouse. a horse and hen, pig and g
cockroach, camel and lobster, COW
and wheelbarrow and so on, but ther,
is never a snake in one of these quaint
alliances. Snakes do not do that sort OF
thing, and the anecdote designers imag
nation has not yet risen to the feat OF
compelling them, although the stimulus
of competition may soon cause it.
The case most nearly approaching one
of friendship between man and snake
known to me is the case of Tyrrell, the
zoo snakekeeper, and his ''laidly worms.
But then the friendship is mostly Oh
Tyrrell's side, and, moreover, Tyrrell il
rather more than human, as any on,
| will admit who sees him hang boa con
strictors around his neck. OF course
one often hears of boys making pets Of
common English snakes, but boy il
not human creature at all. He is 8
kind of harpy.-Arthur Morrison il

A Girl in a Bears Den,

A highly respectable Indian gentle
man, member of the Bombay An
thropological Society-Mr. Sarat Chan
dra Mita-has come forward with ar
apparently well authenticated story of :
girl who has been discovered in Jalpai
guri in the den Of bear. The young
persons habits were decidedly bearish
for she tried to bite and scratch those
who came near her, went down 'on all
fours" for locomotion, and "growled al
meals. The orphanage of the New
Dispensation Church in Calcutta could
make nothing of the ferocious found
ling, who has consequently been re-
moved to Bas Aram, refuge founded
and supported by Brahmo gentlemen
in that city. Nor is this all A Baghal
Zemindar has captured in the jungle a
wild boy, whose only approach to
speech is the utterance of chattering
sounds like those of monkey. Col
onel Seeman and the Mr. Lewis of
the Secundra Church Mission have
vouched for similar stories. Mr. Mira
is of opinion that when, as sometimes
happens, an infant child is abandoned
in the bush, there is nothing absurd in
the idea that it might be adopted by a
female wild animal that had lost her
young. London Nslss

MUSIC With MEALS.
One Respect In which Oklahoma Hotel
Keepers Are UP TO Date.

Keepers Are Up to Date.
The hotels of Oklahoma up to last fall
were few and far between. Having tried
several with little satisfaction, party
of hungry "tenderfeet" was directed by
commercial traveller TO a little place
on corner. The commercial man said
it did not look inviting, but it was clean.
That was an inducement the party had
not heard of in that section. and it
turned in for supper. The dining room
was one in which the family lived. A
folding bed stood in one corner. An old
time bureau was opposite. A box stove
was in the way, and about it were
several old fashioned rockers. A few
family pictures hung from the wall
with the old, old motto, invoking the
blessing of the powers celestial on the
household. The party asked for supper
and was told to be seated until the meal
was prepared. Two girls, delicate and
with much WEAKNESS in their faces,
spread the table. When the meal was
brought on, they simply said, Supper is
ready" and disappeared.
The party gathered about the meal,
and it was agreeably disappointing.
| While it was being devoured-that is the
best word to use, even at this distance
from the table-the two girls came into
the room, accompanied by their mother,
a woman whose hair was white and
whose face was a study. There must
have been time when she was beauti
full. They came in as if they had been
billed for the occasion. They went tc
one corner of the room. and then the
party discovered that there was one OF
those old time melodeons in an out of the
way place. The mother took her place

supper, one of them paid the bill, and

Femininity Versus Philosophy

Herbert Spencer said recently Of a
woman who had died early in life, after
the production of some remarkable
ESSAYS on "InduCtion" and "DeduC
tion," that "mental powers so highly
developed in woman are abnormal,
and involve physiological cost that
the feminine organization cannot bear
without injury more or less profound.
To which Mrs Elizabeth Cady Stanton
replies that Darwin was an invalid all
his days, and that MIR. Spencer's own
health is not all that could be desired
or his physical being as rugged as il
would have been if he had devoted hi:
life to simple care and toll. Mrs
Stanton mentions among women witt
ers that have lived healthy lives anC
died at a good old age, after doing
much thinking and good deal of hare
work, Caroline Herschel, Maria Mitch
ell, George Eliot, George Sand, Harriet
Martineau and Frances Power Cobbe
and she conClues her argument with
81 doubt whether as many women die
annually from writing essays on Undue
ton and Deduction as from over
production of a family, and yet ne
flags of danger are raised on the house
tops where mothers of dozen children
languish and die, or on workshops
where multitudes of women labor from
fourteen to sixteen hours day.
