The newspapers never reported a
more pitiful story than the following
A wretched mother dropped dead about
four weeks ago at the feet of the son
who had been a burden and a sorrow
to her. This son, who was 80 years
old, instead of helping his mother,
spent his wages for whisky. At last
the mother concluded that committing
him as habitual drunkard might lead
to his reformati H. She was a'led to
the witness stand to swear to the com.
plant, but tie strain was too great
for her, and she fell dead with the
words on her lips, cts breaking my
heart" No orator, living or dead,
ever delivered temperance lecture
equal to this in pathos and eloquence.

autumn and winter months ducks are

One of the most singular looking crea-
lures that over walked the earth or "swam

famous man faced crab of Japan. Its body
is hardly an inch in length, yet the head
is fitted with face which is the perfect
counterpart of that Of Chinese cooly-a
Veritabl9 missing link with eyes, nose
md mouth all clearly defined. This curl
nus and uncanny creature, besides the
great likeness it bears to human being
N the face, is provided with two legs
which seem to grow from the top of, its
head and hang down over the sides of its
face. Besides these legs, two fcelers, each
about an inch in length, grow from the

world like forked beard. These man
faced crabs swarm in the inland seas Of

A Turkish Farmers Life.

Injured as he has been to struggling

him gloomy and taciturn. In place of q
neat farmstead we find hovel constructed
of sun dried mud bricks. This one room
hoyel, without any windows-the only
light and air admitted comes down the
chimney-seryes him and his family as
their residence Adjoining this we find
cellarlike building which serves to house
his live stock. All the surroundings are
dirt and untidiness. In the place of gar
den we see heaps of manure. The walls
round the promises are studded over with
Jumps of COW dung undergoing the process
of drying for fuel On the whole, Turk
