PREJUDICES OF ANIMALS.
Their Likes and DisIIkes Are Very
often UnuccOuntnble.

The likes and dislilles of animals are
unaccountable Some horses take vio-
lent prejudice against certain men, even
though they are treated kindly and
though the mans moral character is
fair. Between the cat and dog there is
a violent antipathy, which, however, is
not infrequently displaced by mutual
respect, and even affection in eXcep-
tionaI cases. The elephant hates dogs
and rats Cows dislike dogs, and so do
sheep, for good reasons. But horses
like dogs and what seems stranger, are
. particularly partial TO bears. On the
other hand, horses loathe and detest
clmels and refuse to be decently civil
| to them after long acquaintance. They
even hate the place where camels have
been, which seems to be carrying race
prejudice TO an extreme.
Evolutionists are accustomed to ex-
plain these instructive feelings as sur
viyals of ancestral enmities dating from
the days when one race preyed upon
the other This would account for the
natural enmity of cows to dogs, for
when cows were wild they were obliged
to defend their calves from bands of
predacious wild dogs. But why should
the horse like dogs? 1t is but the other
day that the wild horses organized to
defend their colts from wolves on our
western prairies. What could the an
cestral horse have had against the an
cestral camel of a million years ago?
Above all, why should the horse approve
of the bear? 1t must be that the horse
has a dormant sense of beauty and of
humor. The ideal of the horse is grace
combined with strength. He disap-
proves from the bottom of his nature of
the hOpelessly vulgar, awkward and UNI
estbetical camel. The bear, he sees at
once, though clumsy, is unpretentious,
truthful and not devoid of a sense of
humor. The dog he recognizes as a good
fellow, mpanionable and unselfish.
lie therefore forgets his ancestral pre-
dacious habits. A strong bond between
the dog and the horse is that they are
both fond Of sport, whereas a camel
would not go an inch to see the best race
that was ever run.-Hartford Courant. |

Reseued by His sister.

New Jersey boasts of a ten-year-old
girl who is both brave and quick-wittad.
She lives on a farm, and while she was
playing with her little brother aged
four, the latter fell down the well.
Waiting but an instant to call her
mother, the girl seized the rope that is
used to pull up the pail, and jumped
down. When she struck the water, 20
feet below, she caught her brother by
the hair and hoistcd him into the buck
ct. Then she held on to the rope while
her mother turned the windlass, soon
bringing the two children to the sur
face, none the worse except for thor.
ough wetting.

power, placing them an inch or two
apart. Then make a small ball of paper
or other light material, fastening on
opposite sides bits Of steel or similar

Baptist church at Forest left the
church and joined another Of the same
denomination, but of Il softer hard
SHELF belief. The Forest Hill church
is of the "iron-jaclIeC kind, and the
withdrawal of the members caused a
discussion ON baptism, during which
Deacon Thrasher is quoted as saying;

molished the iron jacket church, and
this coming SO clearly after the dea'

African origin, which by several au
thorities is considered as fully estab'
lished, its production to America was
n consequent of the slave trade. The

until recently denominated African
fever or ship fever, is now suspected to
have been yellow fever.
