DUMAS ODb EXPERIENCE.

Alexandra Dumas was a little more
than four years old when he lost his
father, yet he relates a strange incl
dent connected with the event to
which he attached so much import
ance as to have it accompanied by a
plan of the house in which 1t occurred.
This was the abode of a locksmith,
whittier young Dumas had been re-
moved the day before his fathers
demise.
'I remained" he says, 'till late
hour in the smithy. The forge gave
out at night effects of light and shade
fantastic reflections which greatly
pleased me. About s o'clock my
cousin Marianne came to fetch me
and put me to bed in a little i'm
promptu couch near a larger one, and
I went to sleep with that good sleep
that heaven vouchsafes to children
like the dew of spring.
AT midnight woke up-or,
rather, we were reused, my cousin
and by a loud knock at the door.
A night lamp was burning in the
room, and by the light of that lamp l
saw my cousin rise up in bed. much
alarmed, but not saying word.
"No one could knock at the door
without getting through an outer one.
But I, who even at the present
day shudder in writing these lines
l felt no fear l got out of bed and
went toward the door.
Where are you going, Alexan-
dre?' my cousin cried out Where
are you going?
"'You see where l am going,

back by force to my bed. I struggled

Something like dying breatf

WHICH WAS THE BEAR?

The following excerpt is from an ac-
count by the Baker City Herald of an
adventure with bear in that county:
What is believed to have been the
biggest wrestle with bear since the
days of Jacob and the angel, took
place Friday night on Rock creek in
the vicinity of Judge ALI L. Currey's
camp"
Which prompts the average layman
not versed in the Scriptures, to in
quirc which was the bear, anyhow;

OUR EUROPEAN WHEAT TRADE.

1t is quite possible that political
sentiment may affect the status of the
United States as a wheat exporting
country this year. Germany has en-
deavored to make reciprocity treaty
with the United States in the last few
years. and failed. Germany has re-
ciprocity treaties now in effect with
Russia, Roumania, Hungary-all large
exporters of wheat. Germany this
year has a much better crop than last,
Judged by her last government re-
port. 1t is fair to infer that her i'm
ports will be less this coming season
than for the one just passed. Sha

as far as possible. from Danube and
the Black Sea.
While there has not been a great

that hitherto she has found it neces-

for a large portion of the wheat she

Of wheat this yeaI promises to be
larger than ever; Canada gives Eng

strong agitation on the part of Can

THE ART OF NOT HEARING.

The art of not hearing should be
learned by all. There are so many
things which it is painful to hear
very many of which If heard will dis
turb the temper. corrupt simplicity
and modesty distract from contept-
ment and happiness. If man falls
into violent passion and calls all
we should shut our ears and hear no
more. If IL: quiet voyage of life
we find ourselves caught in one of
those domestic whirlwinds of scold-
ing we should shut our ears as a sailor
would furl his sail and making all
tight, to scud before the gale.
II not restless man begins to in
flame oar feelings we should consider
what mischief the fiery sparks may
do I'm our magazine below, where our
temper is kept, and instantly close the
door. If all the pretty things said Of
man by needless and ill-naturad
idlers we're brought home to him he
would become a mere walking PIN
cushion stuck full of sharp remarks
II we would be happy when among
good men we should open our ears,
when among bad men shut them. 1t
is not worth while To hear what our
ueiehbors say about our children
wha: our rivals say about our busl.
ness. our dress or our affairs.
