From the Sinpan0re Free bragg

Three Jakuns (aborigines) and a Ma
lay CHANGED to De together in the jun-
gle in lahore when they came across a
tiger. They were armed only with
parands, n the Malay, wisely decid-
ing in favor of discretion, took to his
heels. No SO the Jakuns, however, for
they at once determined to give battle,
not utilizing their numerical superior
ity. but in the most sportsmanlike man
ner arranging for the combat in a Sc
ries of dueIs, if necessary.
AS might have been expected, the se-
ries was necessary, and the end was
not long in coming. The first man who
entered the fray missed his blow and
was at once; struck down, and the same
fate befell his two comrades, all three

Nature.

AS a fond mother, when the day is DER.
Leads by the hand her little child to bed,
Half willing, half reluctant to be led,
floor,
Still gazing at them through the open
door,
Nor wholly reassured and comforted
BY promises Of others In their stead,
winch though more splendid may not
please him more;
Nature deals with us, and takes away
hand
a us to rest so gently, that we go
scarce knowing If we wish to go or stay.
Being too full of sleep to understand
How far the unknown transcends the
what we know.

An Hour With Thee.

An hour with Theei when earliest day
Dapples with gold the eastern gray,
o What can frame my mind to bear
The toll and turmoil, cark and care,
New griefs, which coming hours unfold,
And sad remembrance of the old?
One hour with Thee!
An hour with Thee! when burning June
Waves his red flag at pitch of noon;
His labor on the sultry plain;
And more than care or sheltering bough
Cool feverish blood, and thrcbbing brow?
One hour with Thee!
One hour with Thee! when sun is set,
o what can teach me to forget
The thankiess labors of the day.
The hopes, the wishes flung away:
increasing wants and lessening gains,
The masters pride who scorns my praise?
One hour with Thee!

Keeping Up His Reputation.

From the Delineator for September.
A friend, who lived in another city, had
repeatedly promised our children one of
his fine dogs. which, as he never lost an
opportunity to remark, had an unusually

cried, "Oh, sister, Mr.. Ri has sent the
dog. Do come back to the stable to see
1T. 1t has the longest pedigree and it just
