DEATHS HEAD IN THE PULPIT.

An extraordinary story comes from
Geblingen, small town not very far
from Metz. 1t reads like a parody OF
Hamlet in the pulpit The priest
of this place had been worked into a
state of great indignation by the loose
attitude towards sacred things dis
played by the youth of both sexes be-
longing to his parish. A short time
ago when mass was over the priest
appeared in the pulpit determined to
read his flock a severe lesson. From
under his robe he produced skull,
and, to the terror Of the congregation,
held it up before them. Then he be-
gan to address the grim relic.
Art thou the skull of a maid or of
a YOUTH he asked Art thou hus-
band or a wife? Didst thou live in
Geblingen? Are any of thy relatives
in this church? Vert thou a drunk
ard? Art thou in heaven or in hell?'
Then after a pause he again address
ed the skull. IF thou art in hell
give me no answer" The preacher
received no answer, a proof that the
former owner of the skull was in hell.
Weakminded people tainted, and at
the conclusion of the sermon the con
gregation filed out pale and excited
and not likely to forget that particu-
lar sermon for long time.

BOYS EXTRAORDINARY CRIME

An extraordinary crime has been
committed in a country place in
France by a small boy, nine years of
age, who killed his baby brother only
ten months old because, he said, the
baby cried too much. The two chill
dren were in a farmhouse, whilst
the mother was lying on the floor un-
conscious from drink The boy was
in another room with the baby A
neighbor happened to pass. when the
boy ran out to him, and said, q think
that baby is dead" When the neigh
Dor entered he found the child dead in
the cradle with It's skull smashed,
and about twenty knife-cuts. The
boy first said that the baby had fallen
and struck its head against the wall,
but when closely questioned the blurt-
ed out that he had killed his little
brother. He was trying to sleep, he
said, when the baby started to cry.
He was unable to quiet it, and then
he got angry, and struck it on the
head with a hammer, besides stab
bling it with a table knife all over the
body.

DWARF AND GIANT BEES

In some of the East Indian islands
and on the mainland Of Hindustan are
to be found the smallest race of honey
bees in the world These dwarf honey
collectors are known to entomologists
as Apis forea. Their honey combs are
no larger than a Child's hand. and the
cells are about the size of a small
pin head This honey is excellent, as
is the wax The little creatures build
the combs on the branch Of low tree.
and as they have not to provide for
winter they work all the year through,
raising broOds like themselves.
In this same land there is a race
of giant bees, Apis dorsata, as large as
field crickets. These monsters Of the
bee world build honey combs that are
from six to seven feet in length, four
or more feet in width, and which weigh
from 300 TO 400 each

CAT NURSING A RAT

Cats and rats are commonly regard
ed as Inevitable enemies, but a story
comes from Scotland of an instance in
which this hatred has given place to
warm affection. The other day while
potatoes we're being lifted in Glen
feshire Forest, near Kingussie, one of
the workers came on a rats nest con
tanning a number of young ones These
We're promptly dispatched with the ex-
ception of one, which the finder re-
tanned. Shortly afterwards the baby
rat was adopted by cat which at
the time was nursing kittens. Instead
Of devouring the rat, as one would
expect, pussy quietly gave 1t a place
beside her own offspring, bestowing
upon the newcomer as much care and
affection as she formerly devoted to
her own family. At the time of writ
ing the rat was still under pussy's
maternal care.

USE FOR THE NEWSPAPER
Story That Contains Moral 1t Might
Be We'll to Keep in
Memory.

A little King Charles dog, pet in
a family where he had been the play
mate Of a little boy, slipped through
an open door some time ago and dis
appeared Servants and the children
OF the house searched everywhere,
asked questions at all places where
is was thought possible the dog might
be in hiding. but to no avail and the
animal was finally given up for lost
and there was deep mourning in the
nursery. One day recently the WON
an who owned the deg met d neigh
bor at a florists shop. who had on
leash a dog strangely like the lost
pet. and asked where he came from
why, he ran into our house a few
days ago and We don't know where he
belongs" The deg knew his Old mis-
tess and was quickly surrendered.
You might have had him sooner, had
you advertised" said one woman. And
you could have found the o"' sr soon

and the newspaper man "Ao heard

DEATH WARNING BY A CHILD.

A very curious incident happened in
en- English country town recently, in
which a man was warned of the death
of his father. In relating the exper-
fence he says: MY father had been in
hospital for some considerable time,
but was in his usual health, so far as
we knew, when We retired for the
night.
In the morning our lad, aged five
years, looked up and astonished US by
saying; "Daddie. grandpa is dead
saw a ticket up at the hospital saying
he is dead"
Beyond the usual comment no fur
Their notice was taken In less than an
hour, however, l had a message by
phone informing me that my father
had passed away about midnight Ny

prmerly the ordinary blacksmith
who knew very little about the under
lying principles that should govern
horse shoeing, was called upon to shoe
horses. As a result very much of the
work done was inferior and such work
reacted in many instances against
the usefulness Of the horse that was
thus shod
The advance that has been made in
this branch of blacksmithirs during
recent years, has been very great.
The work of shoeing horses is so
variable in its requirements that no
small degree of skill is required on
the part of those engaged in the bust
ness.
1t would perhaps be correct to say
that no horse sheer is fully equipped
for his work who does not understand
considerable about the anatomy of the
horses foot. He should also be able
to detect defects in the animals loco
motion and should know how to shoe

RELIGION FOR BURGLARS

Religion takes strange forms in In
dia. Sir Herbert Risley, speaking
of the castles OF eastern Bengal
at a meeting of the Royal An
thropological Institute, said a curious
system of religious worship prevailed
among a caste who were professional
burglars. They made space in the
ground, and a man then cut his arm
and prayed to one of the earth's gods
that there might be a dark night and
that he might succeed in obtaining
great booty and escape capture.
