Uncomfortable Sleeps Tails.

A species of sheep common in Syria
is so encountered by the weight Of its
tail that the shepherds fix a piece Of
thin board to the under part, where
it is not covered with thick wool, to
prevent it from being torn by the
bushes, etc. Some have small wheels
affixed to facilitate the dragging OF
these boards after them. The tail Of
a common sheep of this sort usually
weighs 10 pounds or upwards, while
that of a larger species, after being
well fattened, will weigh SO pounds.

Time had written some terrible les
sons.
She said gently, eve are one with
the dead, beloved sister. Those who
lie under the chancel lay no safer than
we, last night, though the Pagans'
passing tread shook the ground we lay
on, and their songs broke our slum-
bers."
The shadows deepened in the eyes
of Sister Wynfreda as she turned them
back toward the lane, for her patience
was not yet ripe to perfect mellow
ness.
THE peace of the grave can never
be mine while my heart is open to the
sorrows of Others" she answered with
sadness. SISTER Sexberga, that was
an English band which passed last
night. / am in utmost fear for the
DANES of Avalcomb."
"'They that take the sword shall
perish with the sword" the old nun
quoted, little sternly. can English
man was despoiled of his lands
when Erode the Dane took Avalcomb.
If now Frode's turn has come"
Her companion made a gesture of
entreaty. 1T is not for Erode that
am .timorous, dear sister, nor for the
boy, Fridtjof; it is for Randalin, his
daughter"
Sister Sexberga was some time 81
lent. When at last she spoke, it was
but to repeat slowly, ''Randalin, his
daughter. God pity her!"
Sister Wynfreda was no longer lis
tening. She had quilted her hold
upon the gate and taken a step for
ward, straining her eyes. Out of
tall mass of golden bloom at the far
Their end of the lane, an arm clad in
brown homespun had tossed itself for
one delirious instant. Trailing her
robes over the dGisied grass, the nun
came upon a wounded man lying face
downward in the tangle.
When the united strength of the
four arms had turned the limp weight
upon its back, a cry of establishment
rose from each throat.
1.-THE woodward of Ayalcomb!"
''The hand of the Lord hath fallen!"
After a moment the younger woman
said in a trembling voice, "The wills
per in my heart spoke truly. Dearest
sister, put your arm under here, and
we will get him to his feet and bring
him in, and he will tell us what has
happened. See! He is shaking off
his swoon. After he has swallowed
some of your wine, he will be able to
speak and tell us"
1t was muscle-breaking work for
women's backs, for though he tried in
stinctively to obey their directions,
the man was. scarcely conscious; his
arms were like lead Jokes upon his
supporters shoulders. Just within the
gate their strength gave out, and they
were forced 70 put him down among
the spicy herbs. There, as one was
pulling off her threadbare cloak to
make him pillow, and the other was
starting after her cordial, he opened
his eyes.

AIarrying Genims.

| To the Editor of the Journal and Courier: An editorial published in the Courier
 of the 18th inst. has interested me to
 such a degree that l am drawn to a
 brief expression on the subject. It was
 in regard to Kate Upson Clarks advice
 against marrying genius.
 | Of course, we have come to look upon
 the genius as a sort of isolated being,
 because of his peculiar gifts. But. af- ter all, he has all the traits, (and often
 more, it would seem), of the rest of | humanity. That he is a being fallen
 out of some strange heaven is not true.
 But that he is specially endowed with | that wonderful gift and power of con- centratlon, we cannot dispute.
 ! Now, as to linking one's life with a man who lives almost or quite solely
 for something which is going to beau
 tify or strengthen the world, is ques-
 ton which any woman brought face to 1 face with such an opportunity should
 deeply consider. It is subject too | Tightly dealt with, and appears to pre-
 sent only one side to her sex--a chance to get married. We'll, when we think
 1t over how much thought is weighed | by the girl about to be married? If
 any, it is of a frivolous kind, more often.
 ITO marry a genius! Ah" thinks the | fascinating woman, (for genius invari- ably seeks fascinating women) what
 an opportunity is mine. I shall be the wife of the famous MT. So-and-So, be- l fore whom all the world bends the
 knee. How proudly shall I carry my self. and they shall be my subjects, l too"
 | Poor queen! You who have never
 known the weight of crown. The glitter of these jewels is only outward | splendor and proclaims little of reality.
 Look thee well to thy structure. Dost think that thou canst steady such weight? And here, think, we have the
 cause of such piteous results from
 women marrying genius She who would marry genius must be nothing short than true genius herself. Is the l tactful, forbearing and loving wife and /. mother less than a genius I wonder? 1 Let us look at the man commonly en-
 dowed. Can he be held for many years
 in what might be termed selfish bond
 age? Even he craves the endearing sympathies and looks of his mate; why not? Nothing will estrange two of the
 opposite sex so quickly as selfishness. But the great, loving, untiring heart of
 the wife, the subtle powers of her mind
 and soul are the only things, in any
 marriage which places a man in willing | bondage from which he would not 1 break, because they are his wall of de-
 fense and his harbor of rest.
 If the genius is simply man who is more highly endowed than some of his l fellow kind, why then can we not req son by analogy and say, Since the or dinary man needs much more than he l frequently finds of generosity and sym- l pathy in his companion, then genius re- quires a veritable genius for wife, in other words, womanhood in all it's mo-
 blest and most powerful development. 1 Such, I think, can safely be united to the male genius. But let the woman
 who thinks not, take care to look be- yond the mere title and glitter of such because if she has not Acknowledge
