The Wisdom of Amusement

"A The wise woman will do we'll to re-
&member In her daily round that:
Amusements that encroach on the hours

#be censured
Amusements that take one away from
Unnecessary work are bound to be harmful,
&because they produce neglect of and I'M

Courtesy in Young Girls

Young girls are apt to be somewhat
discourteous, and are quite
oblivious of the irremediable evil often
wrought by want of thought. Such girls
should bear In mind the lesson in courte-
sy given by father to his daughter. MY
child" said he, treat everybody with po-
likeness, even though they are rude to
you. For, remember that you show cour-
tesy to others, not because they are la
dies, but because you are one

Glastonbury when, according to tradition,
quoted by Baronius, a Roman historian,
and Maelgwyn of Landau, a writer of the
fifth century. Joseph of Arimathea, Lag
arus, the Virgin Mary, Martha, Mary
Magdalen, and others found refuge in this
colony and made their first converts to
the Christian faith ten years before the
founding of the church at Rome. From
the fact that the word Hebrews" means
chose who have crossed the food" they
infer that the epistle bearing that name
was addressed to the Hebrew Christian
church in England.

ouires, showing off its neighborly spir-
It and running qualities. 1t is not un-
common for IL to keep in company of
the traveller for several hundred yards.
No resident of Arizona would kill
road runner. 1t Is firmly believed that
the bird is the deadly enemy of that
monster of the desert. the rattlesnake.
We don't know whether any Of our
readers ever saw n road runner kill
rattlesnake. If there is an authentic
story of such thing we would be
glad to publish It. But the accepted
tradition Is that the road runner and
the rattlesnake are deadly enemies
and that the rattlesnake fears the
road runner beyond anything else.
IL is told that the bird drives the
snake into a coil and then. darting
around the serpent like lightning,
pecks Il to death. Whatever truth
there may be I'm the stories of the

Horse. In the Time Of Homer.

The horses used In Homers time
were war horses. The warriors were
drawn in chariots. The art Of riding
was known, but It is alluded TO as
something unusual. Ulysses at the
time of his shipwreck 'bestrode a
plank, like horseman on a big steed"
There are reasons for believing that
the practice Of riding was much later
than that Of driving, and the myth Of
the centaur. where. according to Shake

tured with the beast" probably orig
mated at an early period when the ap-
pearance OF man on horseback was a
