THE LOST FALCON.
It's Curious Recovery and q Test to
Whick II Responded.

VUiCI. u nSSPOu0S0s
A cu.tous story about falcon Is told
in Game Birds and Wild Fowls" A
colonel in the English army on visit
to Canada took with him two pere-
grimes. During the voyage across the
Atlantic one was missed, and the own.
err made up his mind that it was ire
trievably lost.
While in Halifax some weeks later
he happened to see in newspaper a
paragraph to the effect that an Amer
lean schooner just arrived in port had
on board fine hawk that had come
on board during the passage from Liv'
erpool 1t at once occurred to the colo
mel that it might be his falcon. and he
lost no time in visiting the schooner
The captain Of the craft was inclined
to doubt his story. but the colonel sug-
cested that his claim to the ownership
of the bird be put to n test. He was to
be brought into the presence of the
hawk. and if the bird was his he felt
sure that it would show signs of recOg-
milton that would convince the by
ISLANDERS that he was it's owner. The
trial was agreed upon, and the hawk
was brought into the room.
The door was hardly opened before
it darted for the shoulder of the colo.
mel and evinced by every means in
its power it's delight and affection. 1t
rubbed its head softly against his
cheek and. taking hold Of the buttons
Of his coat. champed them playfully
between its mandibleS.
The proof was sufficient. and the
rightful owner.

Not q Clothes Pea.

Peggie Newton had been a faithful
household drudge for years and had
not grumbled much when her wages
were occasionally passed over. But as
time went on and her salary fell more
and more into arrears she ventured to
ask for something ION account"
why. haven't paid you your wages
lately. Peg? How careless Of me"
her mistress said. I'm sorry I have
no money In the house just now. but
here's Il smart cloak which I've ceased
to wear and which is only a wee bit out
Of fashion. You'll take it in lieu Of
wages. won't you?"
mo, am. I'm sure I shan't." said
Peg, wrathfully eying the faded old
cloak. "A Peg may be by name, but
l won't be the sort of peg that people
hang CASTOR clothes on-not II l know
it."-London Globe.

THE OLD ROMAN LEGION.
Principles Upon Which Its Military
Strength Was BuiIded.

oISU9tV Wdo 0uuuCus
The Roman military unit was the
legion of from 1000 to 5000 men. di-
vided into ten cohorts. The strength
Of Roman arms lay in three things.
The first of these was careful se.ec.
ton Of men from among such citizens
as were practiced in arms. The Sec
ond dependence was upon discipline.
Warlike youths accustomed themselves
to the use of arms as a recreation, so
that it was said that their sports were
battles without blOOdshed and theil
battles bloody sports. The third point
was the prompt adoption of all i'm
provements suggested by the expert.
ence of foreign wars.
The Roman legion was practically
never defeated so long as these three
principles remained in force. The Sc
cret Of its strength was the spirit of
the men. who In their perfect disci-
pline expressed their glory in Rome
and their confidence in themselves.
The most brilliant achievements of
this military instrument were attained
by Caesar, who aroused the devotion
Of his troops to the highest point by
making common cause with them in
the pursuit Of valor. AS Plutarch says.
"He showed them that he did not heap
up wealth from the wars for his own
luxury or the gratifying Of his private
pleasures. but that all he received was
but public fund. laid by for the re-
ward and encouragement of valOr."-
