rives For Revenge.
The Arab who has angered a camel
win throw his clothes npon the ground,
and the infuriated beast, after stamp
ing on them and tearing them asunder
with his teeth. goes on his way, and
the driver is thereafter quite safe, as it
seems to be an axiom with the camel
that no man shall be put in peril Of life
twice for one offense.
The camel is stupid, save when angry,
and then seems to become almost pre-
ternatural in carrying out its yengeful
designs Palgrave relates the following
story of a camel revenge, which serves
to illustrate this point "A lad of IA
had conducted a large camel laden with
wood from one village to another at a
half hours distance. As the animal
loitered or turned out of the way its
conductor struck it repeatedly and
harder than it seemed to have Thought
he had a right to do. But not finding
the occasion favorable for taking inme-
diate quits it 'bode its time. That time
was not long in coming.
A few days later the same lad had
to reconduct the beast, but unIaden, TO
his own village When they were about
half way on the road and at some dis
tance from any habitation. the camel
suddenly stopped, looked deliberately
round in every direction to assure it
self that no one was in sight and, find
ing the road clear Of passersby, made a
step forward, seized the unIucky boys
head in its monstrous mouth, and, lift
ing him up in the air. flung him down
again on the earth with the upper part
Of his skull completely torn off
Having thus satisfied his revenge,
the brute quietly resumed its pace TO-
ward the village as though nothing
were the matter. till some men, who
had observed the whole, though unfor-
tunately at too great a distance to be
able to afford timely help, came up and
killed it. London Telegraph

[Froln a sea gullIs wing.l

Thou vast not born amid earth S stain and soil,
And dreary din and noise of tangled mirth.
Thou hast lived far from all our tears and toll.
Oh, bring us back the blessing of thy BIRTH
Speak but little of that other life
Which knew thee once, wild as the wind and
brine.
Set free our spirits straitened in their strife.
To sweep those old unwearying ways Of
thine.
Bring back the glorious freedom Of thy fight,
Skimming the crest of purple waves afar
In that illimitable food of light
Which knows no stain of toll, no lettering
bar.
Give us to kaow the glory and the wonder
Born of the flying rack, the cleaning foam,
Where mighty pillows rear their heads and
thunder
Against the wild black rocks which were thy
home.
Our hands are tired, our eyes are dim of seeing,
Our ears are dull with noise of mirth and
moan.
Oh give us back the beauty of that being
Unwearied and unsoiled, which was thine
