to pepsin. This principle has
been termed "bromelin," and so
powerful is its action upon pro-
teids that it will digest as much

Animal Oinens.

The actions and voices of domestic
animals on New Years Day are per-
haps considered in some countries
more significant than any other
omens. A dogs cheerful bark in the
morning is a most auspicious sign,
while his howl is very unfavorable.
To meet cat on the morn of the
New Year is considered by Peo-
pie in the Latin countries as sign
that they will change their residence,
and it also betokens i'll for the fu-
ture. Throughout southern Europe
it is regarded as most fortunate
sign to see pig, signifying plenty
for the coming twelvemonth. The
sight of snake is the worst con-
ceivable omen, for it means death by
violence. To see jackdaw, magpie
Or crow is q sign that the beholder
will be cheated on all sides during

OUR PERSONAL INTERESTS.
the Less ON That Experience Has
Taught Us in the Past.

This assurance of the eternal veri-
to be truly thankful for. but it is not
enough to be thankful-here is some
thing to be eagerly embraced as a
step in our own onward progress,
writes D. H. R. Goodale, in Country
Gentleman. Shall we give our whole
lives to the cares of the body, how
ever needful? Shall we not take more
thought for the spiritual and intel>
lectual life, in ourselves and in all
those with whom we have to do? Will
not the New Year give opportunities
for fuller and wider usefulness
happier and more generous activities?
These are the things that make life
better worth living. In true SYM
pathy, in practical exertion for others
as occasion offers, in self denial-for
we are called upon to lend our voices,
our hands and our purses when re-
quired-shall we not in the coming IL
months reach out more freely and ex-
tend the use of whatever gifts we
possess? Can we not do better than
ever before? Have we learned nothing
in the past year. or years? Have we
neither made mistakes by which we
can take warning nor gained clews
which will serve to guide us?
A year that promises personal ad-
vance in the inward gains of expert
ence-a year of earnest effort toward
the best that we know, the highest
truth that we are able clearly to per-
ceive-cannot fail to be good year.
And it is never too late to take up
threads that have been dropped, inter-
ests that have been crowded out in
the hurry and amid the thronging
duties of busy life. 1t is good time
to think of them now-to recall the
friend or relative or, alas! the friend
less one whom we might perhaps have
helped, but whom we have lost sight
of among host of pre-occupations
Who cannot recall some neglected or
forgotten opportunities? It may be
the golden hour is not quite gone.
Will it not be real good fortune if
the New Year repairs the omission of
the old?. Better still if there are no
palpable omissions to repair, but even
in that case there may be room for
many a good deed before unthought
of. Every yeac may have its blessed
beginnings.
