Australia, however, proved her use
fulness in the advancement of hu-
man knowledge without being COM
PEELED to sacrifice herself on the al
tar of science. This cat belonged to
a member of an expedition into the
interior of Australia. One day it
brought to its master a strange little
animal which it had captured among
the rocks. The trooper handed the
animal over to the anthropologist Of
the party, who saw at once that
pussy had made an important dis
covery. The animal she had caught
was new and apparently rare spe-
cies of the tribe of insect eating
marsupials belonging to the great
family of which the giant kangaroo
is the most conspicuous representa-
tive.-Harper's.

Irving and the Baspipes.

The bagpipes have a. strange at,
traction for all sorts and conditions
of people. That enthusiastic High,
lander, DR.. Alexander Duncan Fra,
zer, in his book, "Some Reminis.
cences and the Bagpipe," tells how
Henry Irving was lying seriously il
in a Glasgow hotel when a Highland
gathering was being celebrated in 6
room below. He sent message
begging that the piper would play
to him, which he did, marching ur
and down the passage outside the
sickroom. Then the great actor told
the piper how, in his youth, he had
played in Glasgow in a piece called
"The Siege of Lucknow" His entry
was the signal for the pipes to strike
up. '1 shall never forget" !" he said
"the wave of enthusiasm that swept
over that great audience as the first
notes of the pipe fell upon their
ears-the Highlanders were com
ing, Jessie's dream was answered
and Lucknow was relieved. l have
loved the pipes ever since"
