The country boy has a wonder

things he has learned about ami
mails, birds and trees: the lore of
the fields and the woods, and the
streams-all these may be of
great practical use to him. Con.
meet this with what other stu
dents of nature have found out,
and easily this boys knowledge of
the world about him may broad

become to him a place where he
may learn things which will add
pleasure and new interest to the

Say. Pretender Has Filed.

London, Dec. 24.-In a dispatch
from Tangier a correspondent OF the
Daily Mail says the sultan's troops
have entered Taxa and that the pre-
tender has fed to the Ghiatta hills.
The correspondent adds that the
situation caused by the rebellion un-
doubtedly issserious. The pretender
to the throne has had great successs
but Morocco appears to have q
charmed existence and this rebellion
will probably prove as futile as have
previous risings. 1t is a curious
thing that the mystery surrounding
the personality of the pretender has
not been solved. At the beginning OF
the rebellion he was supposed to be
an educated Moor of the lower
classes, a native Of Zarahun, who
gained a reputation for sanctity by
conjuring. To-day under the same
title of "Bu Hamara" the pretender
Is an unknown person whose identity
has entirely bsfiied discovery and to
whom the native Of Zarahun is play
ing the subservient role Of vizier.
