Girls Useless In Egypt.

In Egypt, and in many other hea-
then countries it is the custom to
throw away girl-babies. They are
cast into the rivers or fed to wild an
Inals. Of course, this is very terri
bic for US to think about, and, lately,
Sme good people have found a w.y
TO prevent the slaughter in q mea-
sure. An order has been formed,
called the Order of the Holy Child
hood. Each member gives ono cent
month, or twelve cents a year.
With this money which amounts TO a
great deal, if there are many mem
bers, missionaries are sent to Egypt
and to all countries where they de-
stroy babies, with instructions to
buy all the little children they can
find. A baby girl rarely costs more
than two cents, and the missionaries
buy hundreds just in time to save
them from a watsry grave. The
children are then sent to Christian
IN stltu'ions and are brought up to
DO civilized women.-N. Y. Ledger.

An Undertaken Killed,

ling and somewhat weird climax of a
funeral this afternoon. The hesrse

with one corpse within, crawled back
to town with two inside.
The colored corpse which turned
somersault out of the casket aid

The coffin was sent flying into a
mud-hole 10 or IL feet away, off

IN gruesome apparel tumbled out in

Long Sleep of Some Creatures.

All animals have their time fol
sleeping. We sleep at night. So dc
most of the insects and birds. Bu,
there are some little creatures tina,
take such very long sleepsI When
they are all through their summer
work they crawl into winter quar-.
tiers. There they stay until the cold
weather is over. Large numbers OF
frogs, bats, dies, and spiders do this.
II they were to sleep only for the
night, the blood would keep moving
in their veins and they would breathe
But In this winter sleep they do not
appear to breathe, or the blood to
move. Yet they are alive, only in
such dead sleep"
But wait until the springtime.
The warm sun will wake them all up
again. They will come out one by
one from their hiding places.
However, there are some kind Of
animals that hide away in the;winter
but are not wholly asleep all the
time. The blood moves a little and
once in awhile they take a breath.
II the weather is at all mild, they
wake up enough to eat.
Now isn't it curious that they
know all this before hand. Such an
imals always lay up something to eat
Just by their side when they 60 into
their winter sleeping places. But
those that do not wake up never lay
up az foo!; for it would not be US
Ad i :.hhey did.
The LITTLE field mouse lays up nuts
and grain. It eats some when it is
partly awake Of warm day. q
The bat does not need to do this:
for the same warmth that wakes him,
wakes all the insects on which he
feeds. He catches some and then
eats.
Tho woodchuck, e kind ofmarmot,
does not wake, yet he lays up dried
grass near his hole. What is it for,
do you thinkl On purpose to have it
ready, the first moment he auakes in
the spring. Then he can eat and be
strong before he comes out of his
hole.
1 have told you that this sleep
lasts all winter But with some AMI
mails it often lasts much longer than
that. Frogs have been known to
sleep several years! When they were
brought into the warm air they came
to life, and hopped about as lively as
ever.
1 have read Of q toad that was
'ound in the middle of a tree fast
asleep. No one knew how he came
here. The tree had kept on grow
ng until there were sixty rings in
he trunk. AS q tree adds a ring
'very year, the poor creature had
,een there all that timel What do
'ou think OF that for a long sleep,
And yet he woke mp all r. ght and
cted Just like any other toad!
How many things are sleeping in |
he winter! Plants, too, as we'll AZ an
mails. What busy time they do
ave in waking up, and how little we
hink about it.

Horrors OF Shipureck.

The Philadelphia Inquirer relates
the following: The full details of the
fearful tragedy on board the Norwe-
glsn ship Thekls, which was wreck
ed at sea, while bound from Phila-
delphia to Havre, in which one of the
crew WAS killed and eaten by hi,
three comrades, who were cr.zed by
the fearful pangs of hunger, have just
been received at this port.
The ship Thekl. sailed from Phil
adeiphla on December l, and up to
the 10th had good weather. After
that the vessel, being in mid-ocean,
encountered disastrous gales. Two
OF her masts were cut away to pre-
vent her from capsizing. The ship
became mere wreck, and fearing
she would go to pieces all hands pre-
pared to take to tho boats, but every
boat but one oapsized as it was be-
ing lowered
SOON LOST TO SIGHT.
Those who could, jumped into the
remaining boat. Among these we're
Captain Hanson and eight others.
The boat WAS then showed off and
was soon lost to sight Nothing has
since been heard from these men.
These who remained behind climbed
into the rigging.
AT first it was impossible to see
who WAS left on board the wreck. oy-
ing to the continual rolling of the
vessel, and the thick and binding
spray which WAS dashing over her,
the men having hard time to pre-
vent being washed overheard. 4,
At length it was found but four
men were left out of crew of twen-
ty. The survivors were Olef Andsr- {
son, Christian n. Jakobsen, Alexan- I
der Johsnsen and an unknown S
Dutchman. $
1t was on the morning Of Decem- '
Der ~ that the four men found
themselves sitting in the scuttle of t
the ship with nothing to eat or drink.
They were unable to sleep owing to
the waves dashing over them. f
On Tuesday, January 8, the sea S
Gained down, the weather being
clear. Dew had fallen. To help
qusnch their thirst the sailors licked
the moisture from the topmasts and
the manila ropes. The Dutchman u
had become desperate from hunger 4
hunger and cold. To prevent freez h

the scuttle to the forecastle and back !,
