MONKEY CONGREGATION.
est with the Birds Serving
as Musicians.

The author of "Sands of Sahara"
when visiting the Gorge of Chiffa,
came upon strange ceremonial
which, a native assured him, was an
unusual one. The gorge itself is like
a grand sanctuary, canopied by trees
and lighted delicately by the sun
fltering through foliage. A remark
able assemblage was there that day
"a congregation of monkeys ap'
parently holding some kind of serv'
ice, to which the birds of the forest
gave music. ---~-~
The monkeys sat in rows upon the
broad, outreaching branches of the
virgin trees. They were in parties OF
two, three or four, although one fell
low sat alone, like a decorous bach
elor. While most. of them remained
stationary, certain partriarchal fel.
lows passed about the area of as
semblage, sitting down for a few
minutes on the branches beside diff
ferent families of the parish, seem.
Ing to give them counsel.
The ceremonies were ; conducted
with the greatest propriety. The
monkeys seemed to be, taking part
in service in which they were deep
ly interested. When it was over, and
they were about to go out into the
world, the ruling elders could be
seen running about passing from
tree to tree on the interlacing
branches; nor did the assembly
break up until those. evidently re.
spected officials had visited and
saluted the entire convocation. Even
their departure was made most
decorously. s. ..a=1. B..
Then, after that serious council
had adjourned, the monkeys fell to
enjoying themselves. They scamp
cred from tree to tree. They swung
from; branch to branch. Some hung
by their tails, and others, in little
coteries, hand in hand enjoyed their
mid-air frolic. But the old bachelor
did not clasp hands with any body.

SCHOOL HISTORY.


 Asked to explain the cause of the Transvaal disturbance, a boy of ten wrote this: "Krugger and Kannerbul- ism is one. He is a man of bud. Mir Chamberling has wrote to him sayin' come out an fite or else give up the bud of the English sDu have took. He is a boardutchman and a wicked heethin. Lord Kitchener has sent for his goary bud and to bring back his scanderlus he'd dedor alove." And an other boys essay described MT Clad stone as having How'd everybody. He loved publicans and cinners and Irish men, he wanted the irish to come to England and have home rool, but MT Chamberlain says no, no, so alars got his bud ID aud filled Mir Parnel. AIr Gladstone died with great respect, and is burrid in Westminster with pieceful ashes"
 Compared with these versions of modern history, the following on Queen Elizabeth is faithful: "Queen Eliza beth was yurgin queen, and she was never marrid, she was so fond Of dresses that she war never seen without one on. She was beautiful mad clever with a red head and freckles.' 7

WHAT HOME IS.


 Home has a cool hand and soft voice-and sympathy.
 Home is where you can speak your mind and criticise your employer. Home is where you can pull of your shoes and put on your slippers. Home has a quiet rest for the tired head, and home is where you can cry out your heartwea-iness.
 Home is where you can shove the days burdens into the hall closet and hold yourself straight and free once more.
 A home is responsibility, but not any more so now than in the time o1 our fathers. No man or woman worthy of the name will shirk a re- sponsibility that means the welfare of our country. It is that responsi- bility that makes sturdy citizens and selects great men to rule us.
 Home is earth's Eden to those who wish it to be so and will strive to make it so. A little. more thoughts fitness, a little less selfshness; lit tie of self-abnegarion and a good deal of sentiment; much of imagina- tion and great lot of lovableness; an ideal to grow to and enough prac- ticability to keep things moving smoothly; such constitute the haven that most of us look forward to and that some of us reanh

CAN'T SECURE CHEAP POSTAGE
ny New Ruling of Post once Re- turned Copies of a Paper Are
 Shut Out from, Pound Rates.

Under the old regulations it was back unsold copies of . sccond-class paper to another newsdealer at the pound rate. This privilege was not extended to the office of publications, as the regulations were drafted, and it was supposed to have been made in the interest of the large news companies, which in that way could control considerable circulation of the newspapers because they could receive back unsold copies from their agents at the pound rate,o while the publishers would have to pay four times as much. I, ; f . ayf#tsfIftl Z There has been a feeling in con C-ess that this application of, pound rates to the return of unsold copies, either to news agents or to publish CTS, was a perversion of the original law, which was intended to keep down the price to actual subscribers and was not meant to reduce the ex- penses of the office of publication.
 The order issued by the postmaster general recently prevents the return of unsold copies at the rate of one per cent. per pound. They will have to pay the regular rate of ono cent for four ounces, the same as ordi- nary newspapers and periodicals mailed by individuals. This prohibi- tion as to the, unsold copies, applies both to the news agents and the Ppb- fishers.

HATS WOMEN ARE WEARING.

Black and white and blue in hat trimming is very good combination this year.
 Low, flat hats, worn tilted forward over the face and the brim covered with long ostrich plumes, are all the fashion at present.
 Children never look prettier than in bright red hats, and these are always good trimmed with field flowers. Trimmed with black they are also styl- ish.
 ''Floppy' soft hats are pretty with the rim softly falling in it's natural way and then trimmed with wreath of flowers with bow of blackyelvet in the back. s
 A pretty little hat is of blue straw trimmed with daisies. It must be worn with a gown which it will suit. Dais- ies, the field flowers, are not good form with elaborate or dress toilets.

Appetites of GeoIogists.

It is not surprising, perhaps. to learn that geologists have good ap- .petites. Sir AlexanderI -Geikie, who has recently retired from tke di- rectorship of the geological survey, relates that Robert Chambers tried to dissuade him from the career which he afterward adorned because be did not seem to possess ''either strength or appetite enough for a professional geologist." Chambers had lately been in Wales with sur vey party, consisting of Ramsay, Jukes and Selwyn, and he, being the oldest member of the company, was voted to the chair, whEre he had the duty assigned to him of carving leg of Welsh mutton. He then found that geologists had a prodigious capacity for food, and an incredibly short time had passed when he found nothing before him but a bare bone. Murch- :son, too, looked on that slim, youth full figure as hardly the style of man for a surveyor. Needless to say that he proved himself equal to all the climbing. What loss te science if he had been rejected because his limbs did not appear strong enoughl Sir Archibald is succeeded by Mir. Teall, member of the survey, and a well-known authority on British .petrology. After De la Bache the succession has been all Scotch Murchison, Ramsay, Geikie-and all distinguished. The science of the rocks seems to be congenial to the Scottish intellect. - London Tele- rraDh

A swift Flying stnr.

A faint star in the Great Bear, known as '.1s30 Groombridge," is famous among astronomers on account of its rapid motion. Recently new compu- tation of its velocity has been made by Prof. Campbell. of the Lick ob- servatory. He estimates its speed across the line of sight from the earth at 150 miles per second. At the same time it is drawing nearer the earth at the rate of 5s or 60 miles per second. But it's distance is so great that light, moving 1s6,3OO miles per second, re- quires more than 23 years to pass from the star to the earth. The spec trum of '1s30 Groombridge" bears much resemblance to that of the sun.- Youths Companion.
