Now ! lay Me Down to sleep.

The fire upon the hearth is low.
And there is stiffness everywhere:
. Like the troubled spirits here and
there
The freight shadows %f1uttering go.
And as the shadows round me creep.
A childish treble breaks the gloom.
And softly from a farther room
Comes: Now lay me down to
sleep"
And. somehow. with that little
prayer,
And that sweet treble in my ears,
My thought goes back to distant
years,
And fingers With a dear one there;
And. as 7 hear the child's amen
My mothers face comes back to me
Crouchcd at her side I seem to I've
Md mother holds my hand again.
oh. for an hour in that dear place.
oh. for the peace OF that dear time,
oh, for that childish trust sublime!
oh. for a glimpse of mothers face!
Yet AS the shadows round me creep.

Sweet magic OF that treble tone
And now I lay me down to sleep"

New Caledonia.

Until 1853 New Caledonia was sort
Of no mans land Then both England
and France decided to annex 1t, and
orders came to two warships to proceed
thither at once. They started the
same day. The English captain had
heard of the reefs that surround the
island. and he was cautious. The
Frenchman went ahead without regard
for the reefs. When the British cap
tain arrived he saw the tricolor flying
from a hill, and he was invited to come
in and lunch on French soil.

His Conscience.

Fierce as he was. the Infamous
Chief Justice Jeffreys did not always
escape the sting of a repartee. He
went to a country asslze once where
an old man with great beard came
to give evidence, but had not the good
fortune to please the judge. so he
quarreled with his beard and said, IF
your conscience Is as large as your
beard you'll swear anything" The old
blade was nettled and briskly return

ing consciences by boards your lord

Initiative Animals.

Some animals have wonderful pow
ers of imitation. Dogs brought up in
the company of cats have been known
to acquire the trick of licking the
paws and then washing the face.
When cat has been taught to sit up
for her food her kittens have been
known to initiate her action. Darwin
tells of cat that was in the habit of
putting her paw into the mouth Of a
narrow milk pitcher every time she
got the chance and then licking the
cream off her paw. Her kittens soon
learned the same trick.

kiIlinu a Robin.

There are persons at the present day
and not all old women, either-who
believe that killing a robin will bring
bad luck. According to ancient belief,
the storm cloud was huge bird. The
Arabians represented his wings as
measuring 10000 fathoms. This bird
lived on worms. the latter being the
streaks of lightning accompanying
storms. The Germans remodeled the
fiction by creating the god Thor.
whose bird was the robin. Conse:
quently to kill a robin first meant
death by lightning. then bad luck.

funerals Lii Scotland.

In Scotland the custom still prevails
tf taking down the windo w blinds at
a death and hanging white sheets
across the windows. The custom also
prevails in the north of England. and
in many families a special sheet re
served for the death chamber is kept
for the purpose and often used from
generation to generation. In many
parts of Scotland, too, it is, still Gus
tomary for the nearest relatives Of the
deceased to lower the body into the
grave and wait by. the side until the
grave is filed up.-London Mail.

How We Breathe.

Men and women do not breathe alike.
In a woman the breathing is from the
thorax or chest, while in a man 1t is
mainly from the diaphragm, which is
lower down. This peculiar difference
is so marked that 1t is possible to rec
ognize by it a woman disguised as a
man. although the disguise may be
faultless in other respects. Most physi-
ologists say that this difference is not
due to sex, but owing to artificial con-
ditions, such as the wearing Of cor
sets.

pudding wives.

The name of pudding wives was
given to women who were occasionally
employed in some English monasteries
for making pastry. and delicacies that
call for the deft touch of a feminine
hand. They were engaged by or with
the consent Of, the regular cook of the
monastery. and had a house or cham.
Der in which to work near the Kitchen
called the pudding house. When ami
mails were slaughtered, especially when
pigs were killed, about st. Martins
day, these women's services were re-
CURED to make black puddings; hence
the name pudding wives. They were
called in, too, for the making of pastry
on spectai oecasions.-tondon Globe.
