A SCOUTS HARD LIFE.
Some Of the Hardships and Dangers
That Must Be Faced.

An unfortunate, says Leslie's Month
~, was sent with dispatch to one of
the smaller outposts in the far north
west. 1t was toward spring, when the
midday sun thaws the surface of the
plow and the light frosts harden the
eelted crusts to a glace Of ice as daZ-
klingly bright as the binding flashes of
sunlight from polished steel. The thaw
had crusted over the trail, and the
scout had to keep sharp eye on the
way not to lose the path altogether.
Suddenly the midday sun developed ex-
traordinary hues. Magenta, purple and
black patches began to dance on the
snow. alternately with wheels and
rockets of cheese colored fire. Then the
light went out altogether, though the
man knew that it was broad day. He
had become snow blind. The only thing
was to give his horse the bit.
The horse stood stock still. By that
time he knew that he had lost the trail
altogether or the broncho would have
followed any visible path. He wheeled
the horse about. 1t still refused to 60
ON, and then the man inferred that the
crust of ice had been so hard that the
horse could not follow back the way
1t had come. That night the trooper
slept under saddle blankets, with the
faithful horse standing sentry.
For five days the trooper wander
ed blindly over the prairies, losing all
count of time. eating snow to quench
his thirst and sleeping in the holes that
the broncho had paved through the
ice crust to the under grass. The troop
er was now too weak to mount and
keep the saddle. As last hope the
thought struck him that If. he unsad-
died his horse and turned 1t loose It
might find it's way back to the fort,
and so notify his friends that he was
lost. He did this, but the faithful crea-
ture refused to leave the man lying on
the snow and stood over him in spite
Of all his efforts to drive it off. On the
sixth day the mail carrier found the
pair. The trooper was severely frozen,
but the rider and horse lived to see
many another days service.

The Way to Identity Her.

Agnes and Ethel are the kind Of
twins it is difficult for intimates of the
family to distinguish apart. They are
four years old and a source of despair
to mere acquaintance.
A friend Of the family met one of the
twins on the street the other day and
asked:
Now, which are you, Agnes or
Ethel? I simply can't tell you apart"
"I'm Agnes" gurgled the small
chubby little fingers in her mouth and
mumbled: you can tell me easy. I'm
the one with the loose tooth. New
York Press.

In Russia many Of the peasantry still
bury their dead in grottoes and caves,
just as their princes and noble men
were accustomed to do centuries ago.
In Constantinople, as in other Turkish
cities, bodies are placed in the ground
as soon as the last spark of life has
fed. The Mussulman believes that as
long as the body is unburied the spirit
is in torment and that it is crime
akin to murder to modest a grave. Ac-
cordingly, the cemeteries around many
oriental cities far exceed in extent the
abodes of the living.

Development of the Walking Stick

Development of the Walking Stick.
Probably the patriarch's staff was the
first adaptation of the walking stick,
and from it's first inception to the pres
ent day it has undergone almost end
less changes. In 1901 footmen attend
ing gentlemen were forbidden to carry
swords, these being replaced by a por-
ter's staff. Thirty years later gentle
men were forbidden to carry swords,
but allowed to carry large oak sticks.
Before many years vanished and pol
ished woods with ornamental heads
came into use and in one form or an
other have held their own in public
popularity.
