NO TASTE FOR FLESH,
How the Study of Animal Life Affected
 One Naturalist.

How the Study of Animal Life Affected
 One Naturalist.
 A man who has made a careful study of the habits of animals and birds, and who firmly believes that birds think and are controlled by brain action in a great measure-about, if not quite as much as human beings, and not by the ''overrated instinct"-told few nights ago of the odd effect natural history had on him.
 Do you know," said he, that since learned that birds and mammals think, l have had sort of spleen against flesh? When I eat a partridge 1 think of the birds wiles used in it's endeay- OTIS to escape the hunters merciless shot. It is the same with the ducks. turkeys, deer and beeves, and all other flesh, but not fish. 1 have the dread, or feeling. that I am eating q rational be ing. l think that if vegetalianism ever becomes universal, it will be when we understand the thoughts of birds and mammals and are able to converse with them. We are just now entering on {, wonderful field of research. We have found the door to real natural history knowledge, and we are now groping for the keyhole."

A Risky Feat.

The Northwest Magazine says that in running a steamboat from Rainy Lake river to Rainy Lake, in northern Minnesota, the craft was compelled to plunge over falls ten feet high. With the force of the current and the full head of steam thesteamboat shot out of the water full length, exposing the whole boat bottom, keel, wheel and rudder, and then dropped into the boil ing, swirlins water below the falls. The current was swift, strong and tortuous, but, luckily, the captain guided his craft safely into quiet water.

CARVED HIS OWN COFFIN.
An English Craftsman Puts His Art to a
 Strange Use.

StEaHKt CbGt
 A coffin yarn from England is this, from a Nottingham paper: 1.-The hobby of an old gentleman, who has just de parted this life in Duddlestone, was wood carving. Being of independent means he was able to devote his time to the craft and become very artistic craftsman. After filling his house with hand-carved furniture he turned his att tention to the carving of an oaken coffin, to contain his remains. Over the richly-carved panels he spent much loving care. In this coffin de luxe he was buried recently, and in accordance with minute instructions in his last will and testament, was followed to the grave by one mourner only-a young man to whom he had left the bulk of his property, ignoring all of his rela- tives. The coffin was conveyed to the churchyard in the old gentleman's pri- vate vehicle, drawn by his favorite pony.'

The Sunday Question as Solved by Maine
 A case of unusual strictneSS ill Sab bath observance is reported from West Auburn, Me. A farmer was waited on by one of his neighbors who asked for the loan of his team the following Sun day to take his wife and children to the cemetery. At first he flatly refused to let the team, arguing that it would be a sin to receive money for such a thing on the Sabbath day, but he final ly said to the neighbor that he would think it over and let him know Satur- day. remarlzing that he would pray over it in the meantime. Saturday the neighbor called and the farmer said that he pondered and prayed over the matter and come to the conclusion that it would be no harm to let the team. but that the neighbor must not pay for it until some week day following. So the neighbor hired the team to go to the cemetery on Sunday, paying for it on Monday, and everything was satis- factory.
