BY THE STREAM.

The sunlight steals between the lesves
And fiickcrs on the stream;
The little minnows dart about
Like shadows In q dream.
Beyond the shade the clover field
Is quivering with the heat,
But here the water ripples cool
About the children's feet.
The leaves stir softly overhead,
The shadows verge toward noon.
And they will have to leave their play
And go to dinner soon.

what the subject of instruction was.
Hearing that it was historical and that
1t treated of the period of Queen Louise
the Good, the kaiserin asked the mas
ter to go on with the lesson while she
listened. She was Of course obeyed,
and for over a quarter of an hour her
majesty remained at the window.
So pleased was she with the ju
veniles' answers that she told them
that she would treat them all to cake
and chocolate very soon and rode Off
amid the cheers of the Youngsters. The
following day the schoolmaster receiv-

the Bornim school children, 400 in
number, were to be RECALLED at her in

with cream and cake at the village inn.
That there was joy in the village Of

The school owns It's own buildings and grounds and has well-equipped lab oratory, library. and modern facili- ties and methods of instruction. The principal, Prof. N. K.

The colony increased rap idly through subsequent immigration, and its members came under the mo- tice of the neighbvrs as being very simple in their habits and mode of fife; as adhering, like the Quakers themselves. to plain. modest apparel as being slow to abandon the customs of their forefathers, and not readily adopting innovations of any kind. With the breaking out of the Revolu- tionary war, there were forty-two meeting houses in Pennsylvania. Con- gregations are now located in at least twenty-five states. and in the Cana dian provinces.
 Al Mennonites recognize The Con fession of Faith. consisting of eighteen articles. which was framed and adopt ed April 2l. 1882, at the city of Dort, in Holland. In addition to the principles set forth in baptism and the sacra- ment of bread and wine. this confes- sion also enjoins the ordinance of foot-washing. enjoins marriage only between members of the same faith prohibits membership in secret organi- zations. forbids the taking of oaths and impresses upon Mennonites the doctrine of non-resistance.
 The communion Is observed twice a year. Every intending participant is carefully examined separately concern ing his spiritual standing. before the day appointed for taking the sacra. ment Immediately after the commun. ion of bread and wine. comes the cere- mony of foot-washing.

 Few religious sects have appeared go little in public print as the Mennon- ites. although they have been unique, distinct force in the worlds spiritual life since the days of Luther. of whom Mennon- simon leader of the sect, was a contemporary. They have been in this country since 16S3. and there are now some 1000 of them here, and over 10000 in Canada. The fact that they are branching out in foreign missionary work Ca field in which they have been comparatively imperative, and their recent activity in India reiiet-'he! sent mane carloads of corn and much money last summer to India through The Christian Herald-has awakened interest in many people who seem to have heard little or nothing of them Through the courtesy of Dr. Dewitt R.

 "Mennonites, previous to the year 1890. had never made public. any state ments of their work, at which time reports as to their numbers, doctrines and tenets of faith, were rendered TOT use by the Y. s. census officials. The custom. from time immemorial, mas prevailed among them to go about things in a quiet way and they nave never followed the custom of publish ing an account of their work or the number of their communicants. WILT them the evangelical life Is reduced t' a principle that requires not only sep aration but also distinction from th' world. With respect to this outwar' distinctive form-such as the "praye head-covering" for women and th' peculiar regulation dress for men, thes' people have maintained throughout al their generations the attitude Of sope singularity before the world

The Beautiful Kangaroo Rat.

I set a trap by these holes, and
next morning I had surely caught my
fairy" Just the loveliest, daintiest,
fawn-brown little creature that | had
ever seen in fur-large, beautiful eyes
like a fawn's-No! not like fawn's,
for no fawn that ever lived had such
wonderfully innocent orbs Of liquid
brown. ears like thinnest shells of the
sea, showing the pink veins food OF
life His hindfeet were large and
strong: but his forefeet-his hands,
mean, were the tiniest of the tiny
pinky white and rounded and dimpled
just like baby's, only whittier and
smaller than the tip of baby's smallest
finger. His throat and breast were
snowy white however does he keep
himself so sweetly clean in such a
land of mud! Down the outside of his
brown velvet knickerbockers was the
cutest little silvery white stripe, just
like that on a troopers breaches. His
tail, the train that I supposed the page
carried in dancing, was remarkably
long, and was decorated to match the
breeches with two long, white stripes
and ended in a feather buster, which
was very pretty, but rather overdone
I thought, until found out that it was
designed for several important pur
poses.
His movements were just like what
one might have expected from such
an elegant creature-he had touched
my heart before had seen anything
but his tracks, and now he won Il
wholly at first meeting.
"You little beauty! You have beer
so invisible and mysterious that 1 be
gan to hope you were a fairy, but now
see have heard of you before-youl
are Perodipus oro1, that is sometimes
called the kangaroo rat. | am much
obliged to you for all the lace designs
you have sketched and for the pretty
verses you have written for me, al
though I could not read them all, but
am eager to have you translate
them; and, in fact, am ready to sit al
those microscopic and beautiful fee
of yours and learn" Ernest Seton
