A Don Story.

We brought from Scotland a collie about six months old. Be was allow cd to be with us at the breakfast ta- ble, but never to be fed in the dining room. This rule was enforced by my daughter. was the only member of tEe family who ever broke over the rule. And often when offered him a tempting bone he would glance across the table, and if be caught the forblddlng eye he would resist the temptation. But one morning she left the table abruptly. Rab followed her into the hall and watched her till she had closed the door of her study. Then be scampered back, nudged my elbow. as if to say, Now Is our time." He seized the bone and was soon crunching 1t with the greatest satis- factlOn.-Loudon Spectator.

 have yet to meet the man who can walk for the first time through a beay- CT works, as the range of a colony of beavers is called, and not feel some thing Of the sentiment of human asso- citation.
 Itis a sensation very similar to what we feel when we come out unexpected ly into a woodland clearing after a long day spent in the unbroken soli- tudes.
 l once stood with a learned professor of Columbia college on the bank of Q stream in eastern Canada and looked down on a freshly made beaver dam one of the best In point of consuuc- ton that had ever seen. It was, in- deed. a really stupendous affair for a beaver to have made. Built of alder poles and brush, weighted with mud and small stones, 1t was fifty feet long, six feet high and raised the level of the water by about sixty inches.
 Seen from the upstream side, 1t pre- seuted the appearance of a more or less evenly disposed array of short sticks proruding from a long mound of mud just level with the surface Of the restrained water.

 "Why, tbe Bible says so, doesn't ltT'
 "No. 1t has come to be q popular belief that the fruit which was eaten by our first parents in the garden eastward in Eden was an apple, but there Is DO authority for this.
 Tt is called simply the fruit Of the tree of Knowledge of good and evil, And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food and that 1t was pleasant to the eyes and a tree to be desired to make one wise she took of the fruit thereof and did eat and gave also to her husband with her, and he did eat What is there here about an apple?
 "A great many popular quotations are attributed to the Bible when in fact they had other sources.
