insect Continuance.

AS DR.. Darwin was walking one day
in his garden he perceived a wasp
upon the gravel walk with large fly
nearly as big as itself which it had
caught Kneeling down, he distinctly
saw it cut off the head and abdomen
and then, taking up with it's feet the
trunk or middle portion of the body, to
which the wings remained attached,
fly away. But a breeze of wind, acting
on the wings of the fly, turned round
the wasp with it's burden and impeded
it's progress. Upon this it alighted
again on the gravel walk, deliberately
sawed Off first one wing and then the
other and, having thus removed the
cause of it's embarrassment, flew off
with it's booty.

Maintaininq His Argument.

One night at Brooks when Coke was
present Fox, in allusiOn to something
that had been said, made a very dis
paraging remark about government
powder. Adam, attorney general to
the Prince of Wales, who heard it, con.
sidered it personal reflection and
sent Fox a challenge. At the time ap-
pointed Fox went out and took his sta
ton, standing full face to his adver-
sary Fitzgerald pointed out to him
that he ought to stand sideways.
What does it matter?' protested Fox.
II am as thick one way as the Other!."
The Signal to fire was given. Adam
fired, but Fox did not. His seconds,
greatly excited, told him that he-must
fire. 'I'll be - if l do!' said Fox.
II have no quarrel Whereupon the
two adversaries advanced to shake
hands. ADAM" said Fox complacent-
~, you'd have killed me if it hadn't
been for the badness of government
powder" London Bellman.

They Were Good Eaters.

One day Dl. Norman Mcleod who
was large and healthy man. and one
of his burly elders went to pay visit
to certai.. Mrs. MacLaren of the
congregation who lived over the Scotch
hills. She was a frugal woman, but
since she knew that call from these
two meant that they would stay to
supper, too, she determined that they
should have the best in the house. SO
she piled the table with jellies and jam
and preserves and shortbread and all
the delicacies of the season, and, the
journey having been long, they partook
unsparingly, and after the meal the
elder said to her:
Mrs. MacLaren, were you at the
kirk Sunday?"
''Oh, aye" she said, Il was"
And what did you think Of the
treatment of the miracle?" The ser
mon had been on the loaves and fishes.
81 thought il was good" said Mrs.
MacLaren.
And what is your idea on the sub.
ject, Mrs. MacLaren?' persisted the
minister
''Losh," said their hostess suddenly,
I'm thinkin' that if you and the elder
had bin in the congregation there
wadna bin twelve baskets of frag-
ments for the disciples to gather up!'

The SAUSAGE.

The sausage dates back to the year
S97. 1t has been asserted that the
Greeks in the days of Homer manufac-
tured sausages, but this prehistoric
mixture had nothing in common with
our modern product. The ancient so
called sausage was composed of the
same materials which enter into the
makeup of the boudin of the French
market and the blood pudding of the
French Canadian. The ancient sausage
was enveloped in the stomachs of
goats. It was not until the tenth cen
tury that sausage made of hashed pork
became known 1t was in or near the
year 1900 that, thanks to the introduc-
ton into Germany of cinnamon and
saffron, the sausages of Frankfort and
Strassburg acquired universal repu-
tation.

but one eye. How he came to lose the
other in childhood is told by a writer

from school he would poke one of his
eyes out. His father insisted on his re-

BETA did as he had threatened to do,
and on his father demonstrating with

back again to school he would poke the
other eye out. Such a determined
character was he that his father had
finally to give way to him.
