AN OBJECT LESSUN,
The yuiillg ptlupld of a senile
church in the West, had a chanue
not long since to give sn object les-
son', and did it well. One of their
number who had been long absent
from home, soon after her return,
made an entertainment for her
friends ; delightful mluio was to be
expected, and some other enjoy
ments of a special character. The
invitatione were sent out for Friday
evening ; to the lady's disappoint-
ment, one, end another and another
of those whom she specially wanted,
politely decline t the invitation; they
were sorry not to be with her; under
other circumstances nothing would
give them greater pleasure, but for
that evening they bad a previous
engagement. Ou being pressed as
to what it was, they eepbained that
it was the evening for regular young
people's prayer meeting. Their
friend was eo astonished at this re-
ply, that she took some trouble to
learn whether the young ladies bad
known of one another's intentions
in declining her invitation, and
found that each had toted without
knowing what the other meant to
do. Don't you !lank she must
Siwe decided that in the minds of

THE RAJAH AND .IiTS ELE•
PHANT.
Very few people know what a
wonderful ar.imal the elephant is ;
how Mise, how grateful, if kindly
treated, and alas l how revengeful
if ill nsed in any way,
There was once au Indian rajah
nomad Dowlah, wild started with
his train of nobles to hunt in tho
neighborhood of Lneknow. On
their way the minters had to pare
through a valley wLich served the
natives as a sort of hospital. Alt
around lay prior sick folk, trying to
gain health by the fresh air end
sunshine.
The Rajah had n bad name for
cruelty, and as lois olepbrnt nen
nroached the velley, the people wl.to
were in charge of the siell fled, leav-
ing the invalids powerless on the
ground. Dowlah could easily have
turned ' aside, and talion another
road, but lie was a wicked man and
ordered the driver to urge the ele-
phant to its full speed, and to
trample on the sufferers.
The animal was more humane
eban his master ; the moment he
approached the first body he halted.
Dowlah was angry, and ordered the
driver to prick the poor elophant
With the iron goad which is used to
guide it ; but the kind and, wise ani -

At last, seeing that they were not

There is a terrible curium in Tudia
of tieing the animal as au execution
er. He it trained to taatnple ou the
victims, or to orusn them with hie
trent. One day a man who Lad
offended against the law knelt to
receive the death blow from the
e.ephant. But, to the surprise of
every one, the animal ouly raised
the criminal with leis trunk.
Then the man recognized the
elcpuant as one which he
,bid had charge of in fernier years,
and 000 whom lie had always treated
kir,eily. The tlephaut remembered
the kind tieatwelic, and 10 !lis gran
nude the man owed his life.
Ono day an elephant who was
walking along the etreets of Delhi
put his trunk into a tailor's shop,
where several people were at work,
and one of thein pricked hue trunk
with a needle. The animal took no
notice, but by and -by he came to e
very dirty pond, lie filled hie

shop, squirted the water all over the

Farm N oten.
The worst effect of the clearing
off of forests in this county is in the
fact that it allows winds to pile
snow in drifts instead of having it
evenly distributed, Thus a great
part of the lend often does not got
a thorough soaking with water
through the entire year. This de
creases evaporation, with a result
of lessening both rain and snow fall.
The evil is cumulative and the
planting of trees to act as wldll
breaks is the only remedy.

'Winter Is doubtless the best time

of the farmer and gardener. In
oold weather they find refuge under
the eaves of buildings. A little
poisoued meal spread in such places
will be otit of the reach of other
animals, and tho sparrows will be
sure to find it. Any attempt to
poison sparrows by feed thrown to
them on the ground exposes poultry
