 Dear Sir:-Let me make an expla- nation, in behalf of the state secretary of the Y. M. O.. A. iL regard to. the papers that are being circulated to find out the desire. for r. M, O. A. on the part of the. men of Stafford. It is only desired to know how many here want a Y. M. 0. A. enough to promise to become it's members and pay annfaE dfas.e which wins be be- tween five and ten dollars only. The 1 privileges at first will certainly be a gymnasium. with physical director, and reading room, social parlor and piano. Other features, including Enight schools, will be added as: may be desirable and possible. It is sim ply question of want or not want now. It is not times yet to debate where the institution can be housed or supported, and certainly not to re- count diffiebltiess in @she way, and it will be unwise and unfortunate to make the project fail simply by look ing at the obstacles first. If suf- ficient number desire these privileges Sfor sthemsslxes and their friends the further matters can be taken up, but If, in circulating the papers, it is found that there is no interest in the project of having Y.;M. O.. A: here the matter will be dropped. I should think that 100 names might perhaps be considered "a sufficient number. We hope that no one will be deterred from expressing his desire to belong to a. Y. M. 0. A., by putting his name to the paper, through the dread that anything further will be demand led of him because of She signature.

Cape point, which terminates the mighty headland known as the Cape of Good Hope, consists of towering premontory of sandstone, which rises from the sea to an altitude of $40 feet. At the base of this stands big soli- tary column which is known as Vasco da Gama's pillar. The lighthouse which here Eliminates the meeting place of the Atlantic and Indian oceans Is one of the most important and most useful of it's kind. 1t is visible from a distance of thirty-six miles. The cliff scenery is wild and sublime, the rocks are magnificent, and the far reaching sea, with the fierce surf beating on the iron bound coast, is impressive. In the water directly beneath the clif sharks are abundant. A traveller describing the scene says that on the occasion of his visit so numerous were the evil looking monsters that the sight as he descended the cliff was most unpleas- ant A slip and fall into the sea at this point would mean that the unfor- tunate would be torn instantly limb from limb by the ravening brutes.

Peacoeks. Feathers.

Peacocks' feathers have been handed down to us from the lncient days of mythology as emblematical 0f treach- cry. evil and misfortune. The origin of this strange superstition Is founded upon the following classical story Osiris, king of Egypt, upon starting on his Indian expedition, left his queen, Isis, regent, with Argus, his minister, as Ter chief adviser. Argus. with his hundred eyes, or rather his spies, soon made himself so formida- ble and powerful that he seized the queen regent, shut her up in strong castle and proclaimed himself king of Egypt Mercury was sent against him with strong army, took him captive and cut off his head, whereupon Juno metamorphosed him into a peacock and set his spies in his tail. From
 this legend and the various additions made to it from time to time the be- lief has arisen that 1t is unlucky to have peacocks' feathers inside,a house.
