Rruin As a lrtiherman.

Old hunters say that the black bear
does a good deal OF fishing at this
season. 1t is said that carefully study
ing the sun, and approaching so that
his shadow will not be cast upon the
waters, bruin creeps C4:oue'y to
where he sees the tell-tale fins, and
dexterously throws the fish out of the
water with a sweep Of his paw.
A couple of lads came across dif-
ferent kind of bear this week at St.
Mary's lake, Hull, Canada.
This one preferred having some one
else do the fish catching for him.
The boys had got a good sackful of
pike which they left near a stump
while they amused themselves on a
raft they had thrown together. They
looked ashore a..er a time TO see a big
bear walking off with the bag of fish
over his shoulder.
He paid not the least attention to
heir shoutings, having, as it trans
pired, taken the precaution of break
ing the stock of their gun across at
the grip before carrying off the fish.

order was Right, by twos.' After some
hesitation he shouted peremptorily:
Gee round that puddle,'
THE company had evidently been
better drilled than their commander,

ILL-FATED MARIE ANTOINETTE.
Presidents Have Paid the Penalty
of Rank.

Kings and Queens, EmperOrs ans
Presidents Have Paid the Penaity
of Rank.
Marie Antoinette, Archduchess Of
Austria, daughter of Francis l., anc
Marie Theresa, his wife. was born al
Vienna, Nov. 2, 1855. She was carefully
educated, but greatly indulged. To thi
fact may be attributed her unconven
tionality and the amiable weaknesses
which she displayed when as a mere
girl of Is she became the wife of tn'
Dauphin of France, afterward Louii
XVI.
Marie Antoinette was indeed charm
ingly beautiful. She has been describet
by contemporaries as being slender
with all the suppleness of a girl ans
the dignity of a woman, and finely pro
portioned. Her features were not clas.
sical but were pretty rather than reg
ular. Her face was oval and somewhat
long. Her lips, particularly the undei
one, had the thickness characteristic
of the Austrians, but her mouth wa
small and well arched, her arms wer
superb, her hands perfect, her fee
charming and her nose-a delicate ac
outline. Her hair was a pale blonde o.
peculiar shade, and crowned fore
head of marvellous purity. Her blue
eyes sparkled with veracity and intel
ligence, and lighted up bewitchingly
Her complexion was of dazzling bril-
liancy, incomparably white and reliev
ed by a color which was not the re
suit of rouge. Her skin was so trans
parent it took no shadows and was th'
despair of painters. Her walk was i'm
posing, but full of grace and elegance
Her air was so distinguished that once
when attired as dairy maid she wa!
recognized as princess by her superl
bearings.
The French people were charmet
with her when she came to them as
bride, but 1t was a comparatively few
years afterward that all her lovelines
and all her acts of kindness were for.
