writes T.. w. Saudys in June Outing.
MANY an otherwise honest camper has

may desire, but leave the firearms at home

But we uright see bearr II camper eX-

IL won't hurt you, and you won't see it
long after it sees you, nor is there glory
of much worth in killing n summer bear in
poor coat.
The fact is, you might see a moose, or n
caribou, or deer, or grouse or duck or any
one of the animals or birds which the law
OF the land, of honor and of common sense
forbds you to NEEDLE with for IL reasonable
time. And, furthermore. my friend, if you
should sec one of these creatures you't!
promptly try to plug it, and that is pre-
cisely what you lave no business TO do.

Oregon and California are all great resorts
for trout fishermen, but almost any coun-
try brook not too near civilization and In
cool or temperate climate is fairly well
stocked with this game fish. Up stream
fishing is the popular method among expert
anglers for the reason that the trout usu-
ally lie with their heads up stream and are
consequently less apt to take the alarm
when approached from the rear.
a very interesting sight and one not of

Naming the Baby.

a Hindoo baby is named when it is 10
days old and usually by the mother. Some
times the father wishes for another name
than that selected by the mother in that
case two lamps are placed over the two
names, and the name over which the lamp
burns the brightest is the one given to the
child. In the Egyptian family the parents
choose name for their baby by lighting
three wax candles; to each of these they give
a name, one of the three always belonging
to some deified parsonage. The candle that
burns the longest bestows the name upon
the baby.
The Mahommedans sometimes write de-
sirable names on five slips of paper, and
these they place in the Koran. The name
upon the first slip drawn out is given TO the
child. The Chinese give their boy babies a
name in addition TO their surnames, and
they mrst call themselves by these names
until they are 20 years old. At that age the
father gives his SOD IA new name The Chi
nese care so little for their girl babies that
they do not give them n baby name, but
just call them No l. No. ., No 3, No 4, and
SO on, according to their birth, says The
Churchman.

The First Temple of vesta-Dcrivation of
the Name vesta.
Ovid tells us that the first temple of
Vesta at Rome was constructed of wnttletl
walls and rooted with thatch, like the
primitive huts of the inhabitants. 1t was
little other than q covered circular fire
place and was tended by the unmarried
girls of the infant community. 1t served
as the public hearth of Rome, and on it
glowed, unextinguished throughout the
year, the sacred fire which was supposed to
have been brought from Troy. and the con-
tinuance of which was thought to be linked
with the fortunes of the city.
The name Vesta is believed to be derived
from the same root as the Sanskrit Twas"
which means Ito dwell, to inhnbit," and
shows that she was the goddess of home,
and home had the hearth ms it's focus. A
town, Il state, is but large family, and
what the domestic hearth was to the house
that the temple of the perpetual fire became
to the city.
Every town had its vesta, or common
hearth, and the colonies derived their fire
from the mother hearth. Should vestal
maiden allow the sacred fire to become en-
tinguished she was beaten by the grand
pontiff till her blood flowed, and the new
fire was solemnly rekindlcd 10y rubbing to
gether of dry wood or by focusing of the
suns rays. 1t might not he borrowed. The
circular form and domcd roof of the tenn
plies of Vesta were survivals of the prehis-
toric huts of the aborigines. which were in
variably round
