Mise Sterling was in the habit of entering a nage containing several lions, together with the tamer Redenbaoh and Dornay, a professor of hypnotism._ It was on the programme that she should be put into a state of hypnotic Bleep by Dornay in the midst of the Bone. On Friday evening Mies Sterling went to sleep in her axons- tomed posture on the floor of the oage,and Redenbaoh proceeded to make the lions go through the antics which are expeoted from them on such occasions. Ata exoep- _tw all_enenyage taimel w e more..rehe 4 than venal that night, and it sprang upon the hypnotized subject and fixed its claws in her lege:' Redenbaoh boldly attacked the infuriated -brute, and succeeded in diverting its attention from Mise Sterling, who made her escape, together with Dorney. As may be supposed_ this scene caused the wildest excitement among the spectators. Mise Sterling's limbo were badly lacerated. The Old Man. Bow low , the tread, do reverence to the old man, once like yon. The vicissitudes of. life have silvered his hair and changed the round merry face to the worn visage before you. Once theheart beat with aepiration, crushed with disappointment, as yours, perhaps, is destined to be. Onoe that form stalked promptly through the gay scenes of pleasure, the bean ideal of grace ; now the hand of time that withers the flowers of yesterday has bent that figure and destroyed that noble -carriage. Once, at your age, he possessed the thou- sand thought@ that pass through your brain, new wishing to accomplish deeds equal to a nook in fame ; anon imaginging life a dream that the sooner he awoke from the better. But he haslived the dream very near through, the time to awaken is very near at hand ; his eyes never kindle at old deeds of daring, and the hand takes a firmer grasp of the staff. Bow low the head, boy, as you would in your old age be reverenced. -Somerville Journal. How to Tell a Counterfeit Bill.
