THE sLAcksvEEUs.y !
An Ugly Stone Figure Worshipedsby
Peasants of Brittany.

Even false religions die hard, and
there are reminders of all extinct
faiths still existing in the world. One
Of the most curious relics of paganism
which are still worshiped in a Chris
tian country is the gigantic black
stone figure Of woman which is to be
found in q forest of the district of
Morbihan, in Brittany.
Itsiss known as the "Black Venus"
but pnobably dates far back of the
time when the Greeks and Romans
worshiped that goddess. Antiquarians
assert that this ugly idol belongs to
the age of the serpent worshpers, one
Of whose subterranean temples is in
the neighborhood. This would make
the figure far older than the Christian
era.
The statue is that of n huge, un-
couth woman, with a sullen, angry
countenanoe, her form enveloped in a
loose mantle.
The superstitious Bretons have al
ways worshiped the figure. asserting
that it has power over the weather and
the crops. If the idol is neglected, they
declare that the grain dies on the ear,
and II the anger OF the black woman is
further reused q tidal wave sweeps
over Morbihan.
Twice the stone was cast into the sea
by pious folk who hoped thereby to put
an end to this idolatry, and twice the
peasants dragged it back and set up an
altar before it.
About two centuries ago Count Pierre
de Lannion, on whose estate the figure
stood, in order to save the statue from
both friends and enemies, dragged il
by 40 yoke of oxen to his own chateau
and set it up in the courtyard. He cut
an inscription on the base Of the pedes
tai declaring the figure to be a Venus
carved by Caesars soldiers.
The count and his chateau are both
gone but the huge black woman, over
grown with moss, still stands in the
forest, and the peasants still beseecI
her to bless their crops.

TEACHING A YOUNG LARK.
How It's Mother Coaches IL to HoI
About and Fly.

How It's Mother Coaches IL TO Hop
About and Fly.
J. NJ. Barrie, the noted Scottish story
writer, in Scribners Magazine told
how young lark got its first lesson.
A baby lark had got out of its nest
sideways, a fall of a foot only, but a
dreadful drop for a baby.
"You can get back this way" its
mother said. and showed it the way.
But when the baby tried TO leap it fell
on its back. Then the mother marked
out lines on the ground on which it
was to practice hopping, and it got
along beautifully so long as the mother
was there every moment to say, "How
wonderfully you hopw
''NOw teach me to hop up" said the
little lark. meaning that it wanted to
fly, and the mother tried to do it in
vain. She could soar up, up. very
bravely, but she could not explain how
she did it.
'Wait till the sun comes out after
the rain" she said. half remembering.
"What Is sun? What is rainY the
little bird asked. "If you cannot teach
me to fly, teach me to sing"
'When the sun comes out after rain"
the mother replied, then you will
know how to sing"
The rain came and glued the little
birds wings together.
Il shall never be able to fly or sing"
1t walled
Then of a sudden 1t began to blink
its eyes. for glorious light had spread
over the world. catching every leaf
and twig and blade OF grass IN tears
aud putting a smile in every tear. The
baby birds breast swelled. it did not
know why; it luttered from the
ground. it did not know why.
"The sun has come out after the
rainT It trilled. THANK you. sun
Thank youl Thank you! Oh, mother
did you hear me? can sing"
Then it fioated up, up, calling
"Thank you, thank you, thank you!
to the sun. "Oh. mother, do you
see me? am aying~

AN INDIAN CIGAR SIGN.
The Fate That Overlook One Aggres-
sivc Wooden Savage.

The Fate That Overlook One ARRres-
sivc Wooden Savage.
The city Of Little Muddy, on the up
per Yellowstone, was an exceedingly
wide awake town IN 1887. When IT
had reached the mature age Of 3
months, every kind Of business man
was represented except the cigar deal
er, and the next week q man from Chi
cago named Stark opened tobacco
store, with a large gaudy and aggros-
siye wooden Indian in front, holding a
tomahawk savagely in one hand and n
bunch Of cigars IN the other. II would
take a chapter to tell of all the trouble
Stark had with that wooden abOrlgine.
This variety Of sign was rare IN that
region, and gentlemen not unconnected
with the stock growing industry who
came in from the ranges wearing spurs
and weapons would resent his threat
ening attitude-for that matter no In
dian, even the most peaceably dispos-
cd, was popular. He was knocked OFF
his pedestal half dozen times day
Stark learned 10 know what had hap
pened whenever he heard a dun crash
in front and would step outside and re-
store his fallen warrior.
But the red man did not meet his
Waterloo till Tohe Hartley and a
friend, preserved to MS under the name
of Long Isaac. came in from the Light
ning's Nest neighborhood. 4 close
friendship existed between these two
worthless. 1t was their FIRST vacation
from the ranch for several months.
They wandered about town in re-
ceptive mood and sought TO enjoy their
visit. No facts are extant concerning
their condition after some hours, but
we may perhaps be allowed our suspi-
cions. Finally they separated. and
Tohe coming along 20 the Indian and
not noticing his upraised hatchet. sat
down at his feet 10 rest lie soon fell
asleep and sank lower At this Juno
ture Isaac came around the corner and
took in the tragic situation at a glance.
"Killod my partner for a simple
bunch of cigars, did your he cried.
''Well. wen see about H." and he pro-
duced his firearms and began shooting
accurately and rapidly. At the end of
ten minutes Stark gathered up his no
bic savage IN a basket. while the rcsas-
citated Tohc and the avenrirg Isaac

by shaft from a crossbOw while

Richard III was murdered in Pontefract

Berkley castle. and Edward V in the
Tower of London. Richard III was
killed on the battlefield of BoswOrth

Elizabeth's death was fastened by
remorse that she had ordered the ex-

WHITE THE CoRRECT THING.

White will be practically the correct
costume for summer. White dresses
are made up in serges trimmed with
deep cream tinted lace, and softer white
stuffs are prettily embroidered in col
ors or inset with motifs in lace. Chit
fon galloons in black and white or all
lace galloons outline patterns upon the
bodices and skirts. White wolfe is one
of the favored stuffs for afternoon
frocks, while tibet cloth, melton. broad
cloth and cheviot, to the exclusion Of
other fabrics, are used for the new
tailored dresses. Etamine, because of
its uncrushable qualities. is increasing
in popularity and is made up into
dresses for the smartest occasions.
Two materials are now combined in
making one costume in a manner that
is both novel and fetching The fab
RIGS are similar either in quality or in
color, and the combination is effected
under an application of trimming so
that the connecting line cannot be de-
tected. For instance, an old rose frock
will be trimmed with a flounce of white
and rose colored brocade, the band of
lace trimming the head of the flounce
hiding the meeting place.
