 The Protestant iieaeoness institutions in Germany have paved the way for an Independent position and suitable work for unmarried women The black dress with the white cape gives her a safe en- try into all houses, and We cannot but regret that the number Of ladies is not larger who seek this useful occupation. But 1t has also given q general impulse to the work of women in all the branches of home missions
 This brings us to another point--the position of women ill religious work Women pastors and preachers are recog. nized in America as an order already existing h Germany we are only in the beginning, but this beginning is made. The speaking of women in public was formerly rendered quite impossible. At first it was allowed in smaller circles of women. Now lady, Mrs. Guauek, who is one of the German representa- tives of the rights of women, was re- quested to give an address at the eyaE. gelieal social congress at Erfurt last year, and she met with universal ap- plause. We begin to hear now that women may make public addresses without losing that true delicacy which we should not care to miss. In our prayer meetings women begin to take all active part We even find that these meetings only become more lively and interesting when women join in the exercises. Count Bernstortf in Exam. iner.

A strange pig, five months old, oddly
shaped and with an abnormally long
snout, turned at the end, caused much
trouble in Columbia, Mo-, for week.
Several persons noticed that their cows
were not giving as much milk as usual
and were unable 10 account for the
fact. Several days ago Professor j.
G. Jones of the Missouri University
who owns very fine blooded milch
COW. found the pig in the COW lot in an
attitude that at once accounted for the
inability of the COW to furnish the
usual supply of milk. The COW was
apparently calm and accustomed to the
horrible looking thing at her side.
Since then the pig has broken several
strong gates to get at the COW and has
become nuisance to the neighbor-
hood. Nothing is known of'the origin
of the strange animal.

H. Juneau, OF Dodge City. Kan, who,

story to tell OF the dark side of life on
the Upper Yukon. Mr.. Juneau spent
several years in Alaska, and helped
lay out the streets OF the town which
now bears his name.
In speaking of his early experience
IN Alaska, Mr. Juneau said:

and have been there several times
since. We first named the place Har-
risburg, but the people changed the
name after year or two. l have found

too bright. Enough has not been said
of the dark side.
1T is no place for men of weak con-
stitution. The hardships to be encoun-
tered require the strongest hearts and
sinews, rs well.
Il have seen nothing published of
the fact that large portion of the
country is covered with a moss and
vine which contains sharp thorns. like
porcupine quills, with saw edges
These will penetrate leather boots, and
when once In the flesh nothing but a
knife will remove them. These are
worse than the mosquito pest.

4 grand and picturesque view Tor
miles in extent, from an ocean steam.

with Alaska and enjoy it's scenery. 1t
is a grand country to visit, and Its
scenery surpasses any mountain seen
cry in the world. Travel on water can
be provided for in comfort, and be en-.
ioyed without great risk or danger.
alaska IS a country on edge. 1t Is
so mountainous. Basins are mainly
filed with ice. TIE weather is always
hard in great extremes. When there is
no ice there Is moss and devils club

Mexico, talking with two friends in
the reading room of an uptown hotel.
He speaks excellent English, and rs
he said this he held up to view the
battered silver ball which he carries
always strung by gold wire to his
watch guard.
"It weighs just an ounce, the Senior
Don continued. "It was given me by
my grandfather, who told me the story
of it when he put it into my hands on
his dying bed. He was clear of mind,
and 1 could not doubt word of his
storV, strange as it may sound to you.
1T was more than fifty years ago, my
grandfather said, that monster wolf
appeared at my ranch on the San
Ysidro and destroyed many sheep and
calves and colts. My herders chased
the creature with lassos and fred at it
to no purpose; it was so fierce that it
would not retreat before one man. NY
major domo sent word OF these things
to me, and I went to the ranch. Three
different times 1 fired at that wolf,
feeling sure every time that I must
have hit the creature, but it trotted
away with no sign of hurt. When
after my third trial found the flat
tened bullet at the place where the
wolf had been when I fred, I gave up
trying to kill the beast with powder
and lead, and l rode 100 miles to con-
suit with a man who was learned in
such matters. He heard my story.
"sMake bullet from the first silver
you find,' he said. Scratch upon it a
Christian cross, and try the wolf with
that. Ii your aim be true, the bullet
will not fall fiat like the other
'"The rest of the story 1 will tell in
my own words. My grandfather made
the wise man present and started
back for the ranch. Crossing the
channel of the San Ysidro, at that
season of the year nearly dry, his
horse stumbled, and where its hoof
had disturbed the sand and pebbles
there lay exposed nugget of pure
silver, such as often is found in the
bed of this stream, washed down from
the mountains. Dismounting, my
grandfather picked up the nugget and
after his arrival at the ranch hammered
it into the bullet you see. The next
night he watched for the wolf, which
came with the rising moon, and he
killed the creature with this silver
bullet. His focks and herds were
troubled no more by any wolf, and he
kept the bullet until the last day of
his life.
d" Keep it, my dear grandson,
were his last words to me concerning
the bullet. 1T has been lucky for

form the work that is required; for
not only must the soiled and mutilated
money be accurately and rapidly count
ed, but all counterfeit notes must be
detected and thrown out, When we
consider that some counterfeiters can
so cleverly initiate genuine money that
their spurious notes will circulate
through the country without detection,
and are not discovered until they are
finally turned into the treasury, some
idea of the proficiency of these experts
can be gained, especially when we bear
in mind that these notes are often so
worn that the imprint on them can
scarcely be deciphered. 1t not infre-
quently happens that these bad notes
are detected simply by the feel of
them, which, in some cases, is the only
way of discovering the fraud; for while
a counterfeiter may occasionally sue.

LOVE I BEAR.

Daytime or nighttime,

Weary with labor

Sleeping or waking,
In sadness or pleasure,
My life is possessed
OF this love that 1 bear.

No sorrow so saddening,
No memory so fond,
And no hope is so dear,
No cups so embittered,
No comforts so gladdening,
As those that / know
In this love that l bear.
Intermingled with all
That touches my being,
The fabric of life
Has been woven so fair
By the shuttle of thought.
That forever is flying,
Propelled by this merciless
Love that 1 bear.
Summers have budded
And blossomed and faded,
The fruit of rich autumns
Been garnered with care,
The treacherous ice
OF winters invaded,
And bright Easter springtimes
Since love that bear,
Strange! Strange the power
That with hunger possesses
A soul with such longing
That life Is prayer
For love of its own,
That none other expresses,
yelling up from a heart
With such love as bear.

OF allotted probation,
No hope of IA blessing,
SO precious to share,
Can ever be found,
Except in relation
To One that | love
