A CONSIDERATE DOMESTIC.

A young lady lately and happily
married has a literary man for her hus-
band, who does all of his work at
home. 1t is very good work and pays
very well, and as they are SO newly
welded they are delighted with the
opportunities for being almost con-
stantly together
Recently they got new servant, a
buxom German girl, who proved her
self handy and also seemed to take a
deep interest in the affairs of the
young couple. OF course, she saw the
husband around the house a great
deal, but her mistress was not pre-
pared for the following:
"Ogscuse me, Mrs. Blank, but like
to say to you something"
well, Renag'
You won't be mad by me, airetty?"
why, what is it you wish to say?''
The girl blushed, fumbled her apron,
stammered and then replied:
We'll, you pay me SIG mont
And | can't pay any MORE" said
the mistress, decisively.
ITS not dot" responded the girl,
'but / find l be willin' to take SIS

1t was amusing and pathetic-both,

A COAT FOR A WORD.

A poor man may possess a wit so
fine that it is capable of doing him
great deal of service and then wait
long time before an opportunity comes
for bin to exercise it profitably. This
was the case with an elderly tramp
who was once intrusted, for want of
better messenger, with an errand to
the Duke of Bedford.
We'll, you're a queer felloW!' said
the duke on seeing him. What is
your nameE'
MY name is Russell, YOUR grace"
The duke laughed heartily, for his
own name was Russell.
And how about your coat of arms?''
asked the duke. SIS that the same
as the Duke of Bedford's?''
''Ah, your grace" said the man,
our arms may be much the same,
but fancy there's a slight difference
in our coatsr'
As this fact was only too apparent,
the duke sent for good coat of his
own and gave it to the man.

KELL DESERTED.

A good story is told of Sir Patrick
Hamilton, once mayor of Dublin, and
a worthy man. He was somewhat
saving of money, and his wife was
really parsimonious. Even when she
had become "the mayors lady," her
husband could not induce her to buy
Il new gown, and he stopped to decep-
ton in order to satisfy his pride.
He bought her a silk for fifty-five
shillings yard, but met her scruples
by telling her it had cost only forty.
The evening after she had received
it she displayed it with pride to some
acquaintance.
Forty shillings yard.'' cried one.
why madam, would give you five
and forty for it at this momentI'
Would you, madam? You shall
have it!!'' was the reply, and the guilty
Sir Patrick, who dared not remon-
strate, had the well-deserved pleasure
of seeing the silk carried away by its
new owner.

GEORGE JVASHINGTONS BIRTH


1t was George Washington's birth
day. The bells were ringing and the
cannon were booming in commemora-
ton of the Father of His Country
Little Ethel, aged 5, wise and thought
full beyond her years, was gazing out
the window apparently in deep
thought. Suddenly she awoke from
her reverie, and turning around to her
father said, Papa, what are they 60
ing to give George Washington for
his birthday?'

THE RIIN-SONG OF Z

THE R4IN-SONG OF THE ROBIN.
Oh, the rain-song of the robin. How it thrills
my heart to hear
The rain-sOng of the robin in the summer of
the year.
How | long for wings to join him where his
carol pOureth free,
And for words to beg the secret of his magic
minstrclsy.
Does he sing because he revels in the fury of
the storm
In the thunder and the lightning does he find Il
hidden charm?
Or with prophet eye, enraptured, does he see
the darkness past,
And the beauty which shall blossom when the
clouds dispense ut last?
When Thy rain on me descendeth, and Thy
clouds about me roll,
Grant, o God, the power of singing to my tenn
pest-shaken soul!
May l see Thy mercy shining far behind the
outer gloom
May hear Thine angels chanting May see
Thy lilies bloom

SAVED BY SI4MPEDED HORSES

If horses had the gift of human
speech, am sure that a thrilling his
tory of the war could be told from the
equine standpoint. They had much
to do with every part of the conflict.
In one of the most exciting incidents
of my part of it, they had it all to do.
We were at Is. on Il scouting eXpedi
ton and, although we expected an at
tack, it was so fierce and furious when
it came that almost the whole detach-
ment was captured without struggle.
Before we knew the Yanks were upon
us, they came galloping into town
from all directions. Our men in
charge of the horses turned them loose
and stampeded them, and down the
street they came i'll a panic-stricken
rush that nothing could have stopped.
A moment before l had jumped on my
own horse in front of headquarters,
thinking to do little stampeding my
self down that very street, but had
given it up on seeing squad of blue
coats approach. / knew they would
never stop those horses, though, and
the instant they passed me | dug in
my spurs and took their dust and fol
lowed. ] was well past the Yanks be-
fore they discovered there was a
"Jonny Reb'' on the side of one of the
horses and opened fire. They missed
me, but hit old Joe, although he kept
travelling on. Ahead of us was a ba
you which the flying herd skirted, but
which Joe and | plunged into as our
only refuge. We were nearly over
when he began to falter, and as our
pursuers were gathering down the
road behind us, | slipped off my side
arms and slid off into the water and
struck out for shore, and was just able
to scramble up the bank and throw
myself fiat in the bushes and swamp
grass before the Yanks came in sight.
Poor Joe made an heroic effort to fol-
low me and succeeded in getting his
fore feet on the bank, where he hung
for moment with his noble face so
close to me that we looked into each
others souls. After II moment he sank
back into the water.

HOW WILD BEASTS DIFFER IN
STRENGTH IND FIERCENESS.

1t is the opinion Of tanners that the
tiger is more to be feared than the
lion. One will kill man with as
much ease as the other; but the lion
gives fair warming of his murderous
intention by rushing at his victim
with roar, whereas the tiger, true
representative of the cat tribe, comes
sneaking up with the semblance of an
affectionate purr, only to set his fangs,
with sudden spring, into the very life of
his victim. The lion has somewhat
greater muscular power than the tiger
but the latter has greater quickness.
In intelligence they are about equal.
If Il lion and a strong horse were to
pull in opposite directions, the horse
would pull the lion backward with
comparative ease; but if the lion were
hitched behind the horse and facing
in the same direction, and were allow
ed to exert his strength in backing, he
could easily pull the horse down upon
his launches, or drag him across the
ring, so much greater is his strength
when eXerted back ward from the hind
legs than in forward pulling. A
lion springing through the air from
distance of six feet would knock down
a horse or bullock with single blow
of his forearm, backed by the mo-
mentum of his three hundred pounds
weight. A full grown lion in the jun
giles will jump twenty five or thirty
feet on the level from a running start.
In captivity the same lion would clear
a distance about half as great. A lion
can jump over IL fence eight or ten feet
high, but not at a bound. He catches
first with his fore-legs and drags his
body after him. | have repeatedly
watched the lion Yellow Prince jump
over the tigers with bound which
would have cleared ali obstacle four or
five feet above the floor. Tigers will
jump trif1e higher than this. But of
all wild animals the leopards are the
greatest jumpers, being able to hurl
their 1.-the and beautiful bodies, curled
up almost into IL bail, extraordinary
They bound with ease, for
instance, from the floor of the cage so
as to touch ceiling twelve feet high.
For a short distance a lion or a tiger
can outrun a man and can equal the
speed OF fast horse, but they lose
their wind at the end of half mile at
the most. They have little endurance,
and are remarkably weak in lung
power Their strength is the kind
which is capable of a terrific effort for
a short time. 1t would take six men
to hold lion down, even after his
legs were tied so that he could not use
his paws.
