LEGENDS OF the EsKlM0S

Sun and Moon.

There are many legends Of the moon.
Almost every ancient people has its
moon story, but that Of the Esk1mos
is particularly interesting and poetl-
cal. 1t tells how, long ago, before there
were sun and a moon in the heavens,
q brother and sister lived alone in an
igloo. One day the brother grievousiy
ill-treated his beautiful sister, who
became so enraged that, picking up
a flaming brand, she chased him out
of the igloo and into the sky. And
ever since then she has been chasing
him. She is the sun and he the moon.
Since the first astrOloger foretold
the future, and the first gyDsy warned
Of a dark stranger" the full moon
at the birth Of Il female child has been
supposed to portend an unfortunate
career. Upon those male children born

Snakes Last Meal. =

Wren Walking through the fields. an
stontdfio reader says, he heard the ter
iifc chipping and chatterins Of a
sRrMind sparrow, as though in fear.
He Investigated and found a black
snake that looked as though it had
swallowed an apple. He killed the
snake and cut It in two just below
the swelling in its body, and shook
out small sparrow. The bird opened
its mouth to chirp. but couldn't, and
died evidently from suffocation. The
snake which was killed a couple jof
yards from the birds nest measured
about 80 inches.
