Evolution of the Bayonct.

The sweynes-feather (hog's bristle).
which seems to have been the original
prototype of the bayonet, was long
rapier blade, fixed in a handle and car
ried in sheath, which was given to
musketcer for defense after he had dis
charged his piece. Stuck by its handle
in the muzzle of his gun, it constituted
n very efficient weapon for acting
against pikemen. To diminish his In
cumbrance the sweynes-feather and
musket rest were combined, the latter
forming a sheath for the former, in the
reign of James |.
Toward the latter part of the civil war
the use of the musket rest was aban-
doned, and 1t became the practice to
stick the dagger by its handle into the
muzzle of the piece after discharging 1t.
In 1850 two rings were added by
which the bayonet was placed on the
muzzle without interfering with the
firing This improvement. the inven-
ton of General Mackay, an English
officer, was introduced into the French
army by Vauban in 1903. BY the Eng
lish themselves 1t was not adopted I'M
til after the battle of Fontenoy Q743).
where the advantages its use conferred
ON the French were only too painfully
manifest, the Duke of Cumberland's
army being defeated with the loss OF
$4,000 men.-Pearson's Weekly.

CANADIAN INDIANS.
An Old Trnder Gives Evidence to
Their JnyaryInR Honesty.

Canadian Indians "In all my woods

liar" a cache, or provision station, is
left unattended with perfect safety,

He who leaves provisions must find
them on his return, for he may reach
them starving, and the length of hi@
out journey may depend on his certain
~ of relief at this point on his in Jour
ney. SO men passing touch not his
hoard, for some day they may he in the
