Almost a Miracle.

A peculiar incident of mountain
travel is recorded in the "Life OF
Nicholas Ferrar." He was riding on
muleback over some narrow and dan.
gerous passages of the Alps, hisguide
being little way before him. En-
crossed in thought, Ferrar was paying
little attention to the way, when hO
was suddenly recalled to himself by
an exclamation from his guide.
At the narrowest and steepest parS
of the path, "a lofty wall on one side
and a precipice on the other, "a
donkey laden with a large piece OF
timber came rushing from the side
Of the mountain, turned into the
narrow road, and bore down upon
Ferrar.
The guide had heard the noise, and
at once realized his patrons danger,
20 Lord" he cried. "The man is
lost If he had a hundred lives!"
And truly there seemed to be no
escape. The donkey was loaded with
the timber athwart its back, so that
it would be impossible for it to pass
Ferrar and his mule without pushing
them over the precipice.
AS the donkey plunged down the
narrow path, however, it stumbled
just in front OF Ferrar, and fell to
its knees. The sudden check swung
the timber round so that Ferrar was
lightly brushed by it, and in one
moment the danger was passed.
Ferrar fell on his face, thanking
God for his miraculous preservation.
The guide and the owner of the
donkey which had broken away
while being loaded-stood crossing
themselves and crying, "Miracolo"

PluckY BOY Soldier.

In the recollections of "A Man of
Letters Under the Empire and
the Restoration" story is told
of French poet, Marquis de Saint
Marc, which would do credit to some
of the military heroes of history.
When Saint Marc was fifteen years
old he was ensign of a troop Of caval-
ry in the French army, and took part
in the battle of Fontenoy. The first
charge of the English columns scat
tered and overthrow the first line of
Saint-Marc's regiment, and the boy,
seated on his horse and unharmed,
was left alone.
"In that terrible moment" he said,
speaking of it afterward, 81 remem-
bered nothing except that had been
told not to finch, and always to hold
my standard upright. l did that
with all my strength. Then the
second line rushed forward Before
l quite understood it l was surround
ed with friends, who wrapped me in
my flag and carried me to Louis XIV,
who embraced me and made me a
lieutenant then and there"
