A Pet.

Bears, unless hungry or abused, are
good-natured animals, and make anus
ing pets. when | was in the revenue
service at Alaska" said a lieutenant.
I'VE had a pet bear on the boat, and
we called him Wineska. He used to
climb to the cross-trees, going up hand
over hand by the ,ratlines. One day he
ventured III on the yard-arm, and
there he stayed. We had to get a rope
and haul him down. Once he vaulted
over the head of our Chinese cook
and went into the lockers, where he
helped himself to sugar and butter.
We had a tackling made for him,
much the same as a harness OF a pet
pug, and we would drop him over
board, with a rope attached, to take
his bath. Once he landed in a native
boat and nearly frightened the occu,
pants out of their wits. He was as
playful as a kitten and, althouh he
sometimes disobeyed. he was never
treacherous or unkind. When he was
lost, or hid himself, as he often did,
we would look in the dark till we saw
two little balls of fire. These were
his tyes and gave him away every
time"

s%itions, because so much depends on
the individual in either affairs Of the
heart Or gastric affairs. One author
ity says Eat this" another, Don't
eat that" But who can follow any
others advice? One enthusiast pro-
poses that all the world make apples a

pie stirs up such an interior eruption

Sir George. who was chorister at the
Chapel Royal, arranged the musical
programme at the opening Of the new
London bridge in 1881 his chief at
traction was glee party.
Immediately after the glee party had
sung God Save the King" in the tent
in which the king and queen were seat
ed two unknown persons in costume,
a man and his wife, stepped forward,
and to Sir Georges infinite disgust the
man played "God Save the King" with
his knuckles On his chin, accompanied
by his wife's voice. .-...~-...
The king called Sir George to him
and asked who they were. Sir George
by that time knew the name of the
performers and gave it, adding that
he was sorry they had intruded with.
out permission.
"Oh, no intrusion!' said the king
1T was charming. Tell them to per.
form again."
So Sir George had to tell the per.
formers that their number was en-.
cored by royal command, and to their
great delight and to the chagrin Of Sill
George they repeated it.

Fife Wheat,

Years ago, about century, David
Fife, Scotchman of Otonabee, Ont,
sent to friend in Glasgow for a
small bag of seed wheat to try in
cleared patch of the backwoods. The
friend obtained some seed from
vessel just in from Danzig. Unfortu
nately it was a fall wheat and reached
David Fife in the spring. Neverthe-
less David Fife sowed it in spring.
One can guess how feverishly the
backwoods farmer watched for the
growth Of his experiment. Only three
wheat heads survived till TIE fall, but
those three wheat heads were entirely
free of the rust that had ruined his
neighbours crops, and those three heads
really represented a new variety Of
wheat, fall wheat turned into a
spring wheat. David Fife treasured
the three heads and planted them in
spring. Such was the beginning of
Fife wheat in America.-Agnes G. Laut
in Outing Magazine.
