western prairie. two bears from the
Lake Superior regions. two foxes. a
raccoon, dog, cat and four geese.
When the vessel left Yale's landing in
tow all these were let loose on the deck
except the buffalo. He was inclosed in
q pen. The two bears got enough of
the trip when the vessel began the
descent Of the first rapid, and they
climbed down the side next the Canada
shore, plunged into the swift water,
breasted its powerful sweep successful
" and reached the shore. They were

doned the ship. climbed the masts Of
the vessel and, as it was presumed,
from that outlook saw what their fin

land, slim as they were. The raccoon
ran up Il mast and remained there I'M
til the mast fell. He was never seen
again. The foxes ran frantically up

geese swan ashore half mile below

HIT HIM IN TWO PLACES.
The Way cicsro Treated His Devoted
Admirer Petrarch.

In the early autumn of 1853 Petrarch
suffered an accident which may be
narrated in his own words. "You shall
hear" he writes to friend, what a
trick Cicero. the man whom have
loved and worshiped from my boyhood,
has just played me. possess 4 huge
volume of his letters, which wrote
out some time ago with my own hand
because there was no original manu-
script accessible to the copyists. Ill
health hindered me, but my great love
of Cicero and delight in the letters and
eagerness to possess them prevailed
against my bodily weakness and the
righteousness Of the work. This is the
book which you have seen leaning
against the doorpost at the entry to
my library. One day while going into
the room thinking about something
else, as ! often do, happened mad
vertently to catch the book in the
fringe of my gown. In it's fall it struck
me lightly on the left leg little above
the heel. What! My Cicero quoth
I, bantering him, pray what are you
hitting me forY He said nothing, but
next day as came again the same
way he hit ME again, and again
laughed at him and set him up in his
place. Why make long story? Over
and over again went on suffering the
same hurt, and, thinking he might be
cross at having to stand on the ground,
I put him up a shelf higher, but not
till after the repeated blows on the
same spot had broken the skin and a
far from despicable sore had resulted.
I despised 1t, though, reckoning the
cause Of my accident of much more
weight than the accident itself. AT
last, when the pain was too much not
only for my wit, but for sleep and
rest, SO that to neglect the thing any
longer seemed not courage, but mad
ness, was forced to call in the doc
tors, who have now for some days
been fussing over this really ridicu-
lous wound, not without great pain
and some danger to the wounded limb,
as they insist, though think you know
Just what reliance place on their
representations either of good or evil.
So this is how my beloved Cicero has
!, treated me. He long ago struck my
heart, and now he has struck my leg

Their Wedding Silence.
[Original.1

[OriEinal.1
This story was told to me by crusty
bachelor.
Listen to this, Alec" and Mabel
Burnet read: "In Korea during the
whole marriage day the bride must be
mute. IT she says word she becomes
an object of ridicule. 1t may be Il
week or. even a month before her hus-
band hears the sound of her voice.
Singular custom, isn't it? How would
you like to adopt it when we are mar
ried?"
Her father and mother were sitting
near, the father reading his paper. the
mother sewing. The latter said: '"That
reminds ME of the night we became
engaged. Do you remember ! made
you wait long while for your an
swer? kept you whole hour with
out giving you word"
Happy dayw observed the husband
dryly and without lowering his paper.
A smile passed over his wife's face,
and a tender light shone in her daugh-
ters eyes. AS for Alec, he cast sus-
picious glance at his prospective "a
ther.in-law.
Nothing would do for Mabel but to
introduce the Korean custom at her
wedding. On account Of the recent
death of an aunt who had made her
life miserable but had left her $4,000,
the ceremony was to include only the
family. Alec protested against the in
PRODUCTION of a custom taken from 4
degenerate eastern race, but Mr.. Bur-
nets remark, Happy day" had fas-
tened the idea upon Mabel, and 1t
could not be removed.
