no ascent possible, but only the one

MIR. Robert Heugh, proprietor of

through the body at 300 yards. The
animal was, however, able to get
away, and was afterwards seen on the

suddenly dropped. Thinking that he

large piece out Of each, cast them
from him with such violence as to
Kill them, and then made furiously for

IN AN OLD GARDEN.

Yellow roses, purple pansies,
Tufts of heavy-headed stocks,
Either side the quaint old gateway
Blazing, torch-like hollyhocks.
Sweetpeas tossing airy banners,
Sanity lilies bending low,
Daisies, powdering all the green sward
With shower of summer snow.
Boxwood borders, yews fantastic,
Wallflowers that with every sigh
Spill such scent that e'en the brown bee
Reels with rapture, wandering by.
And the pear trees. long arms stretching
Ger the sunny gable wall,
Scarce can hold their ruddy nurslings,
Ripening where the warm beams fall.
o, the ecstasy of loving!
How it thrills my life to-day!
l can almost hear the flower bells
Tinkle where my footsteps stray.
Man, in garden, was first placed,
There first woke Loves magic thrill
And methinks breath of incense
Clings to earth's old gardens still.

TALLY shattered by the strain of phys
ical work, but it was active in dream
land.
If, across his mind, there comes
, vision of bird or animal, of earth or
sky, that vision would give him a
name. If red thunder appeared upon
the horizon of his dream, that was to
be his name. Ii white horse, red
eagle, black feather or other object
came before his mind, it was to be
used to distinguish him from others
OF his race.
Thus when We read Of Sitting Bull
we know that into the dream of this
particular Indian there came the Wis.,
ion of bullock sitting on the ground.
Black Hawk, the noted fighter of his
time, saw bird of this description fit
across his dreamland. Every Indian
was given the name of the most prom.
inent object that appeared to him dur
ing the sleep that followed his period
of chosen labor.
On awakening from his long sleep,
the brave rushed to his tribe to tell of
his good fortune. The strength or
prowess of the object for which the
brave was named, was taken as an
omen OF his future lie. If it be some
powerful animal or bird, the brave
was looked upon to be future power
in battle or hunt. If the object be
cunning, like the fox or the eagle, he
promised to be wise in the councils OF
his tribe.
Even to the present day the Indians
OF the West use this means Of naming
the braves. The white man has in.
troduced different system, but the
red men cling to the practice OF their
fathers with the tenscity of their race.
Disgrace is sure to follow him who has
no vision in his sleep. If, at first, he
does not dream of some object of the
world, he is obliged to repeat his la.
bors until success crowns the task.
In the early days the young braves
seldom dared to face his people until
he had some story to tell. He would
rather work for weeks than 60 back to
his tribe and acknowledge defeat.

Hymns You Ought to Know

a. a minister OF the Church OF England
was done at kidderminster and later
among the destitute in the East End,
London. Although he did not begin To
publish his poetical compositions until
he was we'll advanced in years, his
hymns are already well known, a num-
bcr OF them being found in all the stand
ard hymnals. In the English church
his songs for children have been accept
able. But in all lands, the one given
below is hv far the most popular Of all
his compositions. 1t is usually sung to
the tune OF st. Hilda,' Its theme is
beautifully illustrated in Holman Hunts
celebrated painting, "The Light OF the
World.')
o, Jesus, thou art standing
Outside the fast closed door,
In lowly patience waiting
To pass the threshold DER.
We bear the name of Christians,
His name and sign we bear;
o, shame, thrice shame upon US,
To keep him standing there!
o, Jesus, thou art knocking;
And, 10! that hand is Scared,
And thorns thy brow encircle,
And tears thy face have marred;
o love that passeth knowledge,
patiently to wait;
o sin that hath no equal,
So fast to bar the gate.
O, Jesus thou are pleading
in accents meek and low
Il died FOR you, my children,
And will you treat me SOP"
o, Lord, with shame and sorrow,
We open now the door;
Dear Savior, enter, enter,
And leave us nevermore!

Tea stains on china, if rubbed with

Milk gravy may be made from sau-
sage fat using milk in place of water.
To clean sponges, wash them in di-
luted tartaric acid, rinsing thoroughly.
The keys OF piano may be cleaned
with cloth dampened with alcohol.
Use part graham flour in making
crust for mince pies. 1t is more easily
digested.
Glass makes the best receptacle for
vinegar as the acid then has nothing
to work upon.
Oilcloth should be wiped clean with
damp cloth, and then polished with
beeswax and turpentine.
If the hands are rubbed on a stick
OF celery after peeling onions, the odor
will be entirely removed.
Save tissue'psper and use it to pol
ish windows and mirrors. 1t will
make them shine splendidly.
When peeliug onions, begin at the
root end and peel upwards, and the
onions will scarcely effect the eyes at
all.
When cutting new bread always dip
the knife in hot water first, and you
will find that it facilitates the cut.

When washing cut glass, add little
ammonia to the suds. 1t gives q

Baked fish has far more flavor than

Safety pins are good substitutes
when bodkin is not handy, but easier
still are corset laces of cotton, linen,
silk or elastic, according to the use for
which they are intended. By means
OF the metal ends these can be used for
drawstrings.
Some housekeepers put peeled
onion inside fowl that is to be kept
for any length OF time. This absorbs
germs that would otherwise infect the
meat. Sliced onions or bag of char.
coal placed near meat of any kind has
the same effect.
Skewers should always be run
through fat, never through lean;
they let juices out. Meat should
never be washed, only wiped we'll.
Slices of meat for hash must be we'll
