two and the three last verSes. The
,
•
third verse which expresses evhat
might have been lier'exein persbnel
feelings h Lee Sad physical condition
is exceedingly Poetical, but is not ad-
apted to the use •of generel emigre--
gations, It. runs as follow:
" 'A little while' to wear the weeds
of sadness, •
To pace, with weary step through
•miry ways;
Then to pour forth the fragrant oil
of gladness,
And clasp the girdle round the robe
of praise!'
The other elided verse it is also a
pleasure to quote:—
" 'A little while' 'midst shadows and
To strive by faiths love's mysteries to
• spell; • ,
Then read each dark enigma's bright
solutiori,
Then hail sight's verdict, 'He doth
all things well.'
The spirit with which she recei-ved
the chastening that laid her aside for
many years when, she was so well
equipped fir an active course through
life, was fully displayed in another
of her hymns which begins:—
"0 Thou whose bounty fills my cup
With every blessing meet,
I give Thee thanks for every drop,
The bitter and. the sweet,"
. . . . in which she sings:—
"I thank Thee for the wing of love,
• Which stirred my worldly nest,.
And for the stormy clouds.that drove
The flutterer to Thy breast,"
Here the reference • is in the first
place to the habit of the eagles when
they see that their eagles are fit to
take wing to stir up and if needful
destroy the nest to induce the fearful
young ones to take flight.
Others of her hymns are those be-
ginning with: "How shall an exile
sing The songs of Zion in a foreign
land," and • the better knoevro—"I've
found a joy in sorrow."
Mrs. Crewels= passed out of this
mortal life at •Sumraerlands, near
Manchester, on September 14th, 1863,
in her fifty-fourth year.
Sometimes this hymn is sung • to
Dr. Dykes' beautiful tune 'Strength
and Stay," but to those who, like this
present writer, consider that it be-
longs to the hymn "Strength and
Stay, upholding • all creation" for
which it was composed, the tune "Ace
adia" written by W. C. T. Morson
in 1850 is suggested as even more
suitable to Mrs. CrewcIson's words.
Of W, C. T. Morson the writer of
these articles is so 'unfortunate as to
know nothing.

Advantage has been taken of the
ease with which a bear can stand on
Its bind feet to teach it to dance and
to perform tricks tie the bidding (or
rather tugging) • of its master. But
'the process of its taming and training
is not as simple as might be imagin-
ed, for it necessitate.much experi-
ence, care and patience.. Indeed it is
questionable whether it could ever be
effected ,without resort to the cruel
expedient of piercing and passieg a
rope through the unfortunate crea-
ture's nostrils afid literally leadtne
it by the nose.
It is surprising, however, what a
bear can be taught by this means,
and how tractable it can eventually
be made by it. For it can be school-
ed to walk, dance, • beg, salaam,
smoke a hookah; play the sitter
wrestle with its master, give joy-
rides to children and perform massy
other tricks. •
It is perhaps not generally knowr
that there is a ;superstition among
the lower classes that if a child rides
on a bear, or keeps a few of its hairs
as a talisman, it will be immune from
evil influences; This belief, in fact,
ie so 'firmly rooted in some localities

PREHISTORIC MOUSE.
Indians Built In Circular Form—
Three Bows of Supports.
• The complete plan of a big circular
Indian house has been excavated in
a- cotton field in Mississippi, is the
announcement made by H. B. Collins.
of the United States National . Mu.
seum. Mr. Collins, who has just re-
turned from Mississippi bringing a
drawing of the house plans, said thai
this is the first discovery showitie
clearly how theprehistoric Indians of
• the southeast designed their build-
ings.
The house, which is in the fre-
quently ploughed field of Claude
Pepper near Deisonville, was ree.ently
recognized as an Indian site when
bones and potsherds were dug up by
two young men working for Missis-
sippi_ Departenent of Archives and
History. These men, Moreau Cham-
bers and Jas. Ford, invited Mr. Col-
lins to work with them in excavating
the site.
The house plan shows three circlet
of post holes which were used fox
roof supports, Mr. Collins explained.
The outermost eirele is sixty feet in
diameter. Tracing the; circles. with a
string, as the Indians probably did in
the first place, the archaeologists
found that the circles were perfectly
laid out. The Indian house builders
dug the three circles in shallow
trenches andiset the posts firmly twc
feet deep within the trenches. The
wall of the structure was very
of wattle -work of needs plastered
with clay, Mr. Collins explained.
Traces of a fire pit were inside the
house, and also a square of post holes
which provided additipnal roof sup-
ports and possibly set off an lune!

He left the salon of his empleayet

Women have won fame as dress -

way. Marthe Regnier was an actress

Novel Information as to the "Varied
Pare of the Tiger.
Some novel information as to the
varied fare of the tiger, at least as ii
elists in the jungles of the Malay
Peninsula, is found in a book on that
region by one of its early explorers,
Dr. A. B. Rathbone.
"Tigers are not only carnivorous,'
he found, "but eat various kinds o1
food. They frequent the vicinity al
durian trees, at the season when the
fruit is ripening, and upon hearing
the thud an one of the big fruits fang
to the ..ground they leave their lair
close by, and breaking open its
thorny,,, covering enjoy a luscious
• meal. They wander in the mangrove
swamps feeding on unwary crabs, ane
ream along the seashore eating sev-
eral kinds of dainty mollusca; they
lurk by swampy'. places satisfying
, their appetites with frogs, of which
they are exceedingly fond; but
should one of them take a fancy tc
human flesh its whole nature
changes, and then instead of shun-
ning them, it seeks the resorts of
man. An inveterate man-eating tiger
becomes very cunning and cowardly;
it does not frequent one spot, bet
tn.:eels twenty miles or more during
the night, capturing its prey about
the same localities, but at different
intervals of time,thereby increasing
its own security."
