Origin Of tile Name "Puss."

A great many years ago the people
of Egypt, who had many idols, wor-
shipped the cat among others. They
thought she was like the moon, be-
cause she was more active at night.
and because her eyes changed like the
moon, which is sometimes full and at
other times only light crescent. or,
as we say, half moon. Did you ever
notice pussy's eyes change! So they
made an idol with a cats head and
named 1t Pasht! The same name they
gave to the moon, for the word means
the face of the moon.
The word has been changed to
Pas" and "Pus." and has come at
last to be "Puss," the name most of
us give to the cat. Puss and pussy cat
are pet names for kitty anywhere now.
Whoever thinks OF the name as given
to her thousands Of years ago and
people then bowed down and prayed
to oher.-Washington Star.

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

Every duty omitted obscures some
truth we should know.-Ruskin.
Life. however short, is made still
shorter by waste of time.-Johnson.
Language was given to us that we
might say pleasant things to each
other.-Bovee.
There can be no friendship without
confidence, and no confidence without
integrity.-Rambler.
When a man has not good reason
for doing thing, he has a very good
reason for letting 1t alone.-Scott.
A brave man knows no malice; but
forgets, in peace. the injuries of war,
and gives his direct foe a friends
embrace.-Cowper
OF all virtues magnanimity is the
rarest; there are a hundred persons
of merit for one who willingly ac-
knowledges It in another.-Hazlitt.
The blossoms cannot tell what be-
comes of its odor, and no man can tell
what becomes of his influence and ex-
ample that roll away from him. and
go beyond his ken in their perilous
mission.-Beecher.
Human help in our need, human for
giveness of our wrong doing, human
love in our loneliness, these are the
sacraments through which, at their
sweetest and purest, we feel divine
help and forgiveness and love flowing
into our souls.-G. s. Merriam.
Unrealized ideals, deliberately or
careless unrealized, work corruption
Of the blood, work spiritual degenera-
tion and decay. If you listen with
serene approval to praise of virtue
and go hence and do not try and strive
to build what you have heard into the
structure of your daily lives, into
your buying and selling and voting
and domestic care, you are worse men
and women than If you stayed at
home OF went off somewhere into the
free.-J. w. Chadwick.

The Cricket and the Lion.

One day the lion was out walking
in the wood. AS he was stepping near
an old rotten log, he heard q tiny
voice say: "Oh, please. don't step
there! That's my house. and with one
step more you will destroy It,"
The lion looked down and saw a lit
tie cricket sitting on the log. He
roared: And is 1t you, weak little
creature, that dare tell me where to
step? Don't you know that | am king
of the beasts?"
you may be king Of the beasts.
but am king OF my house; and
don't want you to break 1t down, king
or no king"
The lion was amazed at such dar-
Ing.
Don't you know, you weakling,
that could smash you and your house
and all your relatives with one blow
of my paw?"
Il may be weak. but have cousin
no bigger than | who can master you
In a fight"
"Oh, no! Oh, ho!" laughed the lion.
well, little boaster, you have that
cousin here tomorrow, and II he does
1ot master me I'll crush you and your
house and your cousin altoether"
The next day the lion came back to
the same spot and roared, Now,
boaster, bring on your valiant cous-
in"
Pretty soon he heard buzzing near
his ear. Then he felt a singing. "Oh!
OH" he cried. Get out of my earl"
But the cricket's cousin, the mos
quito, kept on stinging and singing.
With every sting the lion roared loud
er and scratched his ear and jumped
around. But the mosquito kept on
stinging and stinging. The cricket sat
on the log, and looked on. At last he
said, "Mr. Lion. are you satisfied to
leave my house alone?" Yes, any
thing, anything" roared the lion, III
you will only get your cousin out OF
rty earl" So the cricket called the
n osquito of and then the lion went
a way, and never bothered them any
n ore.-Good Housekeeping.

Peculiar Occupations.

tions followed by thoze engaged in

things that have found their way thith.

by which subsistence Is gained is
one followed by two men who may be
seen almost any day rowing about in
the North river. While one keeps the
small boat in position the other, with
graphing hook and poles, drags the
bottom of the stream for whatever OF
value may be pulled from the depths.
Pieces OF rope or machinery and va
riety Of stuff, good or bad, are grist to
them. Several years ego they came
across a water-tight box. containing
valuable papers and jewelry. which
had been lost overheard in a collision
between TWO steamers. Al times the
men pull up other things than those
they seek. Not ilirequently have they
brought to the surface the bodies of
drowned persons, who have either
committed suicide or ret their deaths
through accident.-Pitts5urg Dis

The Art of Stilts.

The best stills are made to fasten
TO the legs. so that the hands and
arms are left free.
Amy boy with few tools can make
good pair of stills In half an hour.
Two plain straight strips OF wood,
strong enough to bear his weight will
make the standards; they should be
long enough to reach to the top of
the shoulders when mounted.
For a beginner the footpiece should
not be more than IA inches from the
ground--a small boy might do well to
put them lower still. for one finds II
necessary to step off and on a good
many times in learning to stilt.
The footpiece is nailed OF screwed
to the standard, from which It pro-
jects at riht angles on the inner side,
just far enough to give a comforta-
BILE rest to the foot. 1t should be sup
1ects at right angles on the inner side,
In mounting stills of this kind, rest
the ends on the ground, grasp the
handles SO as 70 bring them behind
the shoulders, set the left foot in
place and spring up. bringing the
right foot into its rest while in the
air. Hold the standards close to the
shoulders all the time with the hands
against the hips,
1t is necessary to move forward at
once after mounting, because 1t Is easi-
er 10 walk than to stand still.
Smooth, hard ground is the thing for
these early exercises.
After boy can go freely and far
and fast with these stills he may be
graduated into the use Of stills that
are strapped firmly to the legs. leav-
ing hands and arms free.
With these the footpiece can be put
three and four feet from the ground.
To carry long light pole will be
great convenience; II is a help in
