The Spirit OF Winter is with us, maxi
ing its presence known in many different
ways-sometimes by CHEEKY sunshine
and glislening SHOWS. and sometimes by
driving winds and binding storms. To
many people il seems TO take delight
in making bad things worse, for rheuma-
tism twists harder. twinges sharper, ca
tarrah becomes more annoying, and the
many SYMPTOMS OF scrofula are developed
and aggravated. There is not much poe
try in this, but there is Truth, and it is a
wonder that more people don't get rid Of
these ailments. The medicine that cures
them Hoods Sarsaparila--is easily OBJ

its cures are radical and permanent.

that no set speeches should be made.

Bats and Vampires.

At sunset in the forest of Guiana the
bats fit from their hiding places, some
taking the place of the parrots and
flocking around the fruit trees, while
the hOrrid vampires wander far and
near in search of some sleeping ami
NAL, or even man, in order to obtain
a meal. Cows, goats, hogs, fowls as
we'll as game birds and quadrupcds all
suffer from their attacks if not Sc
cured in well latticed pens, while the
traveller must not be surprised when
awaking to find blood ooZing from
q wound in his foot or temple.
In some places domestic animals can
not be kept at all, as they are so weak
ened by repeated attacks as to ulti-
mately die of exhaustion. Fortunately,
however, the vampires are not very
common, and with proper care may be
excluded from dwelling houses and
stock kpens.-Longman's Magazine.

Apple Trees For Beauty.

Apple trees are so beautiful. even
when bare of bloom and fruit. that
they should be grown in pleasure gar
dens like lilacs and laburnums. Tenny-
son speaks of orchard lawns, and there
is no reason except bad taste why they
should not have a real existence. The
gloom of the fir tree. magnificent no
doubt in its own northern forest, Is
here incongruous dreariness when it is
dotted about suburban lawn. Moth
ing will thrive under 1t, and often 1t
will not thrive itself; but the apple
with all the associated beauty of the
countryside. gives us fruit and blossom
and grateful shade. In the grass un-
der it will grow daifOdils, columbines,
irises and ma ~ other plants, or it may
be trained as hedge to divide one
part of the garden from another, and
with all these uses may still produce
great crops of fruit. 1t would be a
pleasant task for the suburban gar
dener with his half acre Of ground to
grow three or four choice apple trees
with the care that others give to roses.

An Ancient Bible.

In the Cottonian library in England
is an old manuscript copy of part of
the Bible in Latin. The London
Chronicle says it was used at the cor
onations of English sovercigns 300
years before the ''stOne of destiny"
was brought from ScOne to Westmin-
ster by Edward l.
If this be true, the use of this Bible
for the purpose dates back to the year
1000 1t is Il quarto of 217 leaves, con-
tanning the four gospels, and seems
from the style of the writing and illu-
minations, which are very beautiful,
to have been made about the end Of
the ninth century.
1t narrowly escaped destruction in
the fire at Ashburnham House in 1881,
of which it bears evidence in its
crumpled leaves and singed margins.
There is some evidence that the son of
Edward the Elder, Athelstan the Clio
rious, who was king of the West Sax
ons from 92J to $40, owned this Bible
and gave it to the church of Dover.

"But YOU are quite wrong. He did.
Don't you see that it was because he
cared so much for her that he could
not ask her to share n lot like that
with him? He went away and bore
