The Home Of Storms.

The waters Of Cape Horn have never
been unvisited by storms for more
than a week or two at stretch within
the memory Of man. Standing on the
outposts of the world, Cape Horn Is
the meeting place of ocean currents OF
very different temperature, from the
icy cold waters Of the Antarctic drift to
the warmth of the Brazilian and Pc
ruvian return currents.
The prevailing winds are from the
northwest and west, and these, COM
ing from the warm regions of the Pa
cific, condense into fogs, which the
sailors call "Cape Horn blankets" and
which are theaforerunners Of storms.
The extremely low level to which the
glaciers of TERRA del Fuego descend
the perpetual congelation of the sub.
soil, the meeting of conflicting winds
at very different temperatures, are all
direct or indirect causes combining to
make this the most constantly stormy
region of the world.

The First Test Of Haby's Mind.

Just as the germ of the flower is
contained in the tiniest seed and will
reveal itself with an absolute certainty
as will rootlets and leaves when prop
er conditions of heat. moisture and
light are accorded, SO the germ Of the
mind of child is present in his little
body and will develop and unfold it.
self with the growth of the latter.
The only way to stop the growth Of
child's mind is to stop his body from
growing. Appetite is the mother Of
the mind, and muscle is it's father.
At its lowest estimate the body with
its brain Is the tool Of the mind, and
good work cannot be done without
good tools.
The first test Of muscular vigor, the
hand grasp, is an indication Of the
mental possibilities as well. Not one
child out Of hundred who at ten days
of age grasps firmly and clings to a
finger or pencil rubbed against his
pink little. palm will ever fall below
the average intelligence of his race

whistling, was at work.

librarian, land he requests me to state
that if Mr.. Burridge wishes to whistle
he will be glad to discontinue his re

Love and Death.

Very closely love and death dwell to-
gether-high up in the world of nature
and low down! The following we'll
authenticated story comes from North
amptonshire: A sparrow hawk was
killed when feeding her young. Four
days later when the nest was exam
ined it was found that the little male
bird, working alone for the family,
had brought home forty-eight birds
viz, six larks, nine swallows, one bull
finch, seven robins, six sparrows, six
hedge sparrows, nine blue tits, three
chaffinches and one wren.
What spirit Of dutifulness along
with ferocity is here exhibited on the
part of the small widower hawk, who
evidently thought that the best way of
respecting the memory of ais departed
consort was to feed her children we'll!
And in doing this how absolutely OBJ
Hvious nature had rendered him Of
the feelings of the poor larks, swal-
lows, bullfnches and robins, whose
ofspring-or the parents themselves
his relentless parental affection thus
annexed! The direst cruelty animated
by the tenderest love! The most saw
age egotism prompted by an entire I'M
selfshness! Such are some of the
problems which nature furnishes, but
will not solve.-London Telegraph.

Fasting a. a Sacrifice.

The origin Of the religious practice
Of fasting Is very obscure. Herbert
Spencer collected a considerable body
Of evidence to show that fasting may
have arisen out Of the custom among
savage peoples Of providing refresh
ments for the dead. These offerings
are often made IN so lavish a manner
as necessarily to Involve the survivors
in temporary starvation, and 1t is no
uncommon thing for man to ruin
himself by funeral feast. It is sug-
gested that the fasting which was at
first the Inevitable result Of such sacri-
fee on behalf OF the dead may eventu-
ally have come to be regarded as an
indispensable part Of all sacrifice and
so have survived as an established
usage long after the original cause had
ceased to operate.-New York Ameri-
can.

thought to typify mother love, its
color standing for purity; it's flower.
beauty; it's lasting qualities, faithful
ness; it's fragrance, love; and its wide
growth, charity.
The Days Observance: Show your
mother some special kindness this day
in word of affection and appreciation;
by gift or visit to her, or by love
letter If absent from her. If she be
not living, bless the life of some other
mother in memory of her. No true
mother is too rich or too poor not to
appreciate such filial remembrance.

CIRCUS RIDERS.

They Were Kings Of the Show In che
Old One Ring Days.
Riders at one time were the chief at
traction Of the circus and were billed
as we now bill our death defying
Deeds" In the old one ring days the
whole performance was practically d.
vided between the rider and the clown.
When the rider was not riding the
clown had the ring all to himself, even
the band ceasing to play until the
clown sang or got OF his jokes, after
which, the rider resumed the perform

champions in the show printing, writes

sick of his bargain and tried to scare
Robinson out Of it by dwelling on the
unhealthfulness of the climate. He
told Robinson that it was very risky:
that few people could stand 1t. But
Robinson was wise and wouldn't scare
and insisted on the terms of the con-
