The Performing Bear.

The little town OF Aspin in the Hautes-
Pyrenees had been much troubled by the
appearance OF a beautiful black bear which
the snow had chased from his den.
The inhabitants fled But a little girl
OF six years having stumbled the bear
threw himself upon her.
The people uttered cry ofterror, when
suddenly the strain OF violin fell upon
their ears. A fiddler was practicing some
airs to play at feast.
Immediately the bear raised himself on
his hind legs and began to keep time to
the music. At. this sight the treasured
inhabitants burst out laughing and one Of
them taking a rope tied it around the
beast S neck. They noticed in the an
imal's nostiils the mark Of chains like
those used by trainers in tanning animals
1t was in fact trained bear which having
broken its bonds and escaped to the
neighboring mountains had resumed its
old occupation at the sound OF the violin.

kindly. "I-I forget" answered Helen,
trembling.

THE HOUSEHOLD.
COPALIS.

n and lone,
Is the rugged rock, Copalis, like mount
ain built OF stone.
the heavy waves against it, roaring
through its caverns wide:
ms worn by maddened waters and the
moon enchanted tide.
Ground are curling breakers, sitting spray
and flying foam,
Re the slim sea-otter glmbOls and the gray
gull he's home.
Sround is fierce cOmmOtion, pale forms
reaching toward the skies.
DIS of awful cannonading, haunting means,
and battle cries.
ling to its craggy summit, fastened down
with massive chains,
ed in summers golden sunshine, drenched
in winters driving rains,
brave Copalis Jim,
the hut whose door is opened, opened
never save by him.
= this airy hablation keen black eyes peer
on the seas,
IN locks are tossed and tangled in the sigh
ing ocean breeze.
lt and morn he scans the pillows marching
grandly far below,
II and morn he sees them lifting bristling
peaks all white with snow.
by day he keeps his vigil, caring naught
for any man,
khing ever with the patience that the otter
hunter can.
)is swarthy face grows eager, oft his rifle
darts its flame.
a dying creature struggles from that quick,
unerring aim.
Ehen midnight winds are calling, in his
mind sad thoughts arise,
lights of her who held him captive by the
magic OF her eyes.
IS dream she stands before him as she stood
i'll days ag0ne,
his heart had grown more hardened than
y the rock he dwells upon
he hears her laughter ringing like the
echoes of lutte,
hugh the forests dark and somber, down
the wales OF Quillayute.
again he sits beside her, speaking tender
words Of love,
the fragrant flowers surrounding and the
waving green above.
Die thunder of the breakers and the sea-
birds piercing scream
the lodges, brown and jagged, break the
vision OF his dream.
Sawanda. false Nawanda, with your artless
maiden grace,
p you never Of your lover living in that
lonely place?
whose fondest hopes were shattered, now
hermit, mute, alone.

OF stone.
