A Snake Story.

The family were at dinner when there came a tap at door seldom opened. Winning no attention, it was repeated and again third time, though more softly, and then the door was swung back and. behold, there was a snake, knocking at the portals of hospitality. Down upon its head, in conformity with the decree of tradi- tion and with Ezra,s understanding of scriptural direction, crunched Brit ish boot It was mother snake, who, having bravely overcome her fear of man. was seeking sustenance, not for herself perhaps, though she was starv- ing. but more likely for the little ones that were found in the grass by the brook. Thus for once, at any rate, did the craftiness of the devil succumb to the instinct of motherhood.-Georg B. NJ. Harvey in North American Re view.

Tho "Macaroni."

The "macaroni" were exquisites or tops who in England and France led the fashions from 17SO to 17S5 and were distinguished by an immense knot of artificial hair worn on the top of their heads. A small cooked hat which perched ridiculously on their topknot, satin or brocade coats and small clothes fitting tightly to the body and silk stockings with ribbon garters composed the costume of these fash ionable gentlemen. who invariably car ried long walking stick with tassels attached and frequently bouquet tied to the handle and encouraged minc- ing and affected gait and manner. There was during the war for inde- pendence body of Maryland soldiers who on account of their showy uni forms were called "macaroni."

THE MILITARY SQUARE.
A Formation Borrowed by Wallace

A Formation Borrowed by Wallace
 From the -lemines.
 The greatest of afl Scottish anniver- saries is that of Bannockburn. fought i'll the year 1914. Apart from it's bear. Ing on the independence of Scotland, the battle will always have an exeep- tlonal interest from the military point or view, as Bannockburn may be said to have been the birthplace of the British square. Proud Edwards army mainly consisted of cavalry, While that of the Scots, on the other hand, was almost exclusively composed Of foot folk armed with the spear, and these Bruce threw into "schil- troms. or oblong squares, formation borrowed by Wallace from the Elem inss. who had employed it with suc- cess at Courtray to resist the charge of the English cavalry.
 Hitherto the mounted mail clad knight had carried everything before him, but Courtray and Bannockburn proved that he was powerless to break resolute spear armed infantry drawn up in "schiltrom," or hedgehog, forma- lion, and these two battles revolution lzed the tactics of the continent and of our own island. Profiting by the lesson which had been taught them at Bannockburn, the English applied the tactics of the Scots with brilliant success at Crecy and still more at Agincourt. As it was the Scots who may be said to have originated the British square at Bannockburn, so it was they again who at Balaklava were the first to discard it with their thin red line.' and now, owing to our changed conditions of warfare. it is discarded together.-London Chron. lcle.

MOHAMMEDANs OF INDIA.
Superstition Seems to Govern Most of
 Their Actions.

thSiI 6SIIoIS'
 Mohammedans of India are very superstitious No Moha mmedan will take bath on. Sunday or Tuesday. But if one bath on Wednesday all misfprtunes aud misery that are in store for him till the next Wednesday will be averted AS rule. all Moham- medans bathe on Fridays before going to perform the jumma prayers. For donning new clothes Saturday, Sunday and Tuesday are regarded as bad days. If any one dons new dress or puts on new cloth or allows his tailor to cut piece of cloth on these days, he will live miserable life till that dress or cloth gets torn or is thrown away. If shirt is torn and if the wearer wants to stitch it, it must be taken off, for if 1t is stitched while on the body the person will soon die. A Moham- medan will never allow barber to come near him on Tuesdays. for Tues days and Saturdays and Sundays are bad days for shaving If absolutely necessary he will get himself shaved on Saturday or Sunday, but never on Tuesday, as his star is supposed to fall in blood if he does so. If one receives money or some valuable thing, it is taken with the right hand, for if 1t is taken with the left the person re- ceiving 1t is said to forget all about 1t very soon or 10 mislay it. A de vout Mohammedan will not start on journey on Wednesday,. for it is be- ieved he will never return home safe Iy if he does so. And it is said hat even q snake never ventures out of its hole on this day.
