G. J. M. Religion and Honesty. A steadvisitor to a revival meeting ia Toledo, attractedthe notice of the preacher, who finally made his way swathe excitement to the man's pew, , and said: "My friend, Use?' 'You seem always looking, towards the rostrum with great earnestness. I hope an interest has been awakened in. I are you a Chris - your heart." eI am just waiting to see what that Biennia there in the ohair,with a blonde moustaohe and projecting teeth, will decide to do." "Ify dear sir," said the pastor, "you must not wait until your friends ire converted, You must act for your- self." "Oh, that ain't it. You see that man always gets religion at every revival, and I am just lying low for him to come forward and say that he's had a change of heart, so that I can stand at the door when. he comes out, and. ask him for that $10 bill he owes ma before he has the chance to back. slide s' The minister turned sadly away. • Tired Wives. Does the husband ever stop to thin how many are the burdens and ho hard the toils of his wife during thes long summer days? He is in the fiel busy about the crops. , But with les strength and with the care of the. hous and with the care of the children, sh too has work which employs her all th long day. What would be her loss by her neglect any of the children shoal fall from the fruit tree, or be burned b the fire, or sustain any injury from th thousand dangers around. The res less, thoughtless, tireless hands and feet are everywhere. The wife must watch all their steps, and the hundred of little outs about the borne.' Still th fruit and. the garden, and the henner and the dairy, and how much el besides the good meals roust be attende to by her. Do you wonder if your wi is a little jaded in appearance, an sometimes a little out of humor? Thin of the burden she bears. What can be done for the tired wife Do not complain to her of any omissio which may be noticed. Let there no sour words or cross looks at dims r if a few minutes late; If you show her that her werk is appreciated, and that she is indeed loved now as when she stood by your side looking forward to the bridal altar, it will greatly sweeten her life and lighten its burden. Second, provide her with suitable help. No amount of blarneying around will atone for the neglect a furnishing her with the help she really needs. A woman is often allowed to be a kind of drudg upon which labor is allowed to pile just as long as she pulls through it. you have a reaper you count h many men you may need to bind t wh.eat from the swath, and provi them. Take time to think how mu work there is to be done about t house, and furnish the good -wife t amount of help needed. Some time since a Greek -priest w found. preparing his meals and doi householdwork to save his Wife. was Baked why he was so ca fal about his wife; and to this he plied, "If elle is gone once I can't another." The law of the Gr Church forbids the clergy to marry second wife. The same law in t country would cause some men to tr the tired wife differently. Still, rn men through care and their on duti forget these facts about tired. wives which we have only hinted.. In Ep shirks we have a short instruction,wh we commend to all the husbands a tired wives, — "Husbands, love y wives, even as Christ loved the Chu and gave himself for it." • e, THE HURON EXPOSITOR, .went, to, belter-skelter, over rooks and ,stumps!and fallen tree fern, through bush and brush, down gullies and up banks, our powerful horses, keen for the sport, on a mad gallop after the fright- ened, 13ellowing herd. They were making -for a wood, where, of course, a lasso aohld not be thrown. Discovering this, Parker and one of his men urned to head off a portion of the herd,}which had divided, and the other natives went another way. I followed Parker. By some riding that was simply mag- nificent he headed off his game, and then, having turned them again into open space, with his lane swinging in long, steady, graceful curves IN over his head, he charged after a tremendous black and white bull, which he had suc- ceeded in separating from the others. The riding then became too much for me, for 'the ground was furrowid by the hogs; obstructed by stonee, cut by Isharp,• eteep canyons, and made ap- parentlx impassable by stumps of the .treeEfern. I poke to my horse about it, but he did not hear me at first. I reminded him Of what Mr. Parker had told me about niy not keeping up if I did not like it. j But either my horse was a bad and wickedhorse, or else he had not heard what Parker said to rae, for he kept right on with a persistency of par- poee' that was simply discouraging. Discouraging only for a while. No natural timidity could long withstand the exVement of such a chase. I soon re 'zed that my animal under- stood tir work perfectly, and I gave way to he exlfilarating experience with perfect Ponfidence that my horse wpuld bring ne out all right, observing only the injunction to keep a tight rein on a down grade. Parker drew gradually up on the bull, and finally gave a stue, straight throw to the swinging lasao, the noose of which settled over the long horns of the bull. The other end of the lasso was given some qnick turns around the pommel of the saddle, a gradual strain was broUght to bear, and soon the bull was stopped, tripped, and then its feet were tied by the native. ig lee- e - 'et ek a is at 3' •s, at e - ch UT ch - Hunting in Hawaii. CHASING WILD BOARS AND BULLS ON HE SLOPES OF XAUNA KEA. As we sat on our horses, waiting the dawn, Parker said tome: "Now, are going to do some hard riding ove rough country. You are on, a bull ek horse, and he understands the sport perfectly, so I have only one word of caution for you—keep a tight rein in going down a bank or steep grade. If the riding is too hard, or the coun-try too rough, you need not keep close to rae to enjoy all the sport ; just k ep close enough to see the work done." As he &poke we heard the cattle r n- ning in a little valley below us. - W1 en the gray, half light gave way to he weird light just preceding sunlight, we could make out the cattle, and im ()s- log silence, Parker led off down he 1 hill: Picking our way cautiously, we got pretty close to the herd. be ore behig discovered. Then the fun began. The bull then discovered us, tossed his head. high in the air, bellowed a warning cry, and away the herd thundered.' Away we or we a, One ohase we had that morning had a more exciting ending. We had been out nearly twp hours and were return- ing, after good sport and good luck, slowly to camp. Walking ,our horses along the sides of the canyon, which led by a long route back to camp, we saw a bigger wild bull than any we had encountered that morning. In a freak of defiant sport, Parker said he would drive or lead that animal back to camp. The native took one side of the canyon; Parker, the Englishman and I the other. , Riding and yelling like mad, we beganthe drive. The bull would attempt first one side of the canyon and then the other, and finding himself penned on both sides, gave us a terrific rinfilown the grade until, coming to a point where there was a light glade out of the canyon, ha made rip the bank and out across country. We first had a run through a fern field, where the drip- ping ferns wet us to the skin up to our waists, then across a half -wooded lava bed, and then a rattling run over a stretch of blue -topped wood, at the end of which, coming to a little mound, the bull suddenly came at bay. Parker was anxious to drive the big fellow into camp without the use of the lasso, ba we had run him too close, and he had decided to fight ' rather than go any further. I never saw better general- ship than that bull displayed. His po- sition was commanding,. as to lasso hith the rider would have to charge directly up the hill. This, of course, could not be done, and a cross ride could not be made, as small trees by the side of the bull's position prevented a lasso being thrown there. For fully half an hour Parker and his native tried all sorts of strategy to dislodge the bull from his place, but unsuccessfully. He would make a vicious charge down the hill when anyone came too close, and then, when We were all flying over the off field, he -would regain his position, throw his head back defiantly, as if saying, "Try it again, smarties." But the smarties at last gained the day. Worrying him froin the right, the na- tives finally drew a charge upon his left, while Parker dashed out from the trees, and before the bull could recover he was lassoed. He was an ugly beg- gar, thoughand before he was safely landed in camp had broken two lassoes and given both Parker and his native a desperate close call for a horn to. heaven. When • finally a lasso was firmly fixed around the long sharp horns, the rider of the heirs° to wholie saddle the lasso was also attached did not even look at the bull. This afford- ed us a display of horse intelligence I have never seen equalled. The horse, knowing he had a bull to take to cam, set, about it in the most matter of faet way, and took full charge of the opera- tion. Turning his head, he would calmly survey the bull, observe how nauch resistance was offered, ' pull steadily when the resistance -was with- drawn any, or start off on a run when it would occur to the bull to make a wild, vicious charge. In addition to this the horse had to look to it, and carefully, too, that by no quick turn the bull got the lasso wound around the rider's body, had to keep up the slack of the lasso, prevent the intervention of trees, and generally supervise matters, while the rider, apparently uncon- cerned, and really paying no attention to the brill, talked with us by his side. —'an Francisco Call. Ontario Crops. The Bureau of Industries ite monthly report, from which we make the following extracts, reviews the con- dition of crops, the progress of haying and harvesting operations, farm labor and the rate of wages, and the state of pastures and live stock in relation to meat supply and dairy -produce : HAY.—The month of July was very favorable for hay -making, the weather being steady and the temperature naoderate, and the bulk of the crop has been saved in excellent order. Clover recovered to some extent from the serious damage done to it by winter ex- posure and spring frosts,but in the most favored localities the yield does not ex- ceed one ton per acre, and the general average is much less. Timothy and. naixed graeses were very heavy, and the uniform report from all sections is that no 'better crop has been gathered in twenty years. Fara, WHEAT. — Throughout the western half of the Province fall wheat has been remarksbly heavy, but it has not escaped the dangers incident to a late season of ripening. Owing to a rank growth of straw and occasioned rain storms, the crop lodged badly in many loealities just as the grain was beginning to harden,. and about the ssine time, unfortunately, it was struck with rust. As a consequence the sam- ple is not generally as good as was looked for; it is lacking in plarapnesii and oOlor. The woret effects from those OBUSeS are reported from the loamy lands of the southwestern counties— from Essex, and the basins of the Thames and Sydenham rivers. In some motions the whole crop has been , reaped ILA saved in good condition, but • the bulk of it was either standing or in shock when work was interrupted last week by a rain etorm of several days' duratIon. Late reports say that in manpfields the grain has sprouted, but the full extent of the damage will not be known for some time. The storm was local, and confined chiefly to the western counties. In the Georgian Bay counties a large acreage has been saved in good order, and the sample is prime. In the Lake Ontario and St. Lawrence and Ottawa counties the crop was badly winter -killed, and what remains will yield less than an average. In the East Midland counties a good crop will be harvested, but not eqnal to last year's. In the Lake Erie countiea, where some grain has been threshed, it is found to yield from 20 to 30 bushels per acre, and correspondents in all counties west of Toronto estimate the yield at not less than 20 bushels per acre. BARLEY.—Barley is everywhere a heavy crop and a large acreage has been grown, especially in the Lake Ontario and East Midland counties. The grain is uniformly plump and of good color, with a few exceptions where it ripened too rapidly owing to the drought, or where it lodged and rusted: In the western counties the yield is good, but the harvesting season has been un- favoiable. There is a large area under oats, and with the one exception of the Georgian Bay counties, the crop is reported good all over. The estimates of correspon- dents range from 35 to 60 bushels per acre.. Peas are a good crop in all the northern counties, but elsewhere they have been injured by the bug. FAUIT.—The fruit crop is poor in all the best fruit -growing districts. Ap- ples are good only in the Lake Ontario and River St. Lawrence counties, and. there they will not be more than half a crop. Peaches and plums are almost a total failure, pears and grapes are fairly good, and small fruit alone is abundant. The statistics of live stock are as complete as they could be obtained.

The appearance of the Highland regiments which England is now hurry- ing up to the front from both sides of Egypt at once will doubtless be as great a surprise to. the Bedouins of Arabi Pasha as to their grandfathers in 1798. When the Highlanders of Sir Ralph Abercroniby's army landed at Alexandria in that year the Arabs of the town, after a wondering survey el the stalwart Celts, ran to sTnnounce to their friends the arrivals of a host of giants, so huge that the clothes which they wore were all too short for them. In the Sepoy mutiny of 1857 the Highland reghnetits did pricelees service both at Lacknow and Cawnpore, storming on one occasion a high -Walled garden de- fended by five times their number of Sepoys, and literally annihilating the whole garrison. When Nana Sahib's soldiers first caught sight of the plaids and kilts they exclaimed joyfully that al/ the English soldiers must have been killed, and that the S irkar (Govern ro ent) had: to call out the women. But after their first taste of a Highland bayonet charge they abandoned this belief once for all, and fell back upon the theory that these terrible fighters had deliber- ately adopted the -female garb in prder to remind them of the wrong which they came to revenge, viz., the mas- sacre of the English ladies by Nana Sahib. An Eagle's Attack on a Child. A three year old child of Mr. and Mr. 'Wallingford, living on Lake Washington, twelve miles from Seattle, while playing on the doorstep last Tues. - day, was attacked by an eagle and ele- vatedeight or ten feet from the ground. The screams of -the little one brought Mrs. Wallingford to the rescue, who succeeded finally in driving the eagle away. The child's shoulders and arms were considerably lacerated by the sharp talons of the eagle. The Mother was so overcoine by excitement that she has since been prostrated. It was subsequently ascertained that the eagle, or rather a pair of them, had a nest in the cliff of rocks about one hundred rods distant from the house. and it is reasonable to presume that had not the child's mother put in a timely appear- ance the body of the little one would have been carried to, the cliff, and. its flesh divided among the eaglets. Mr. Wallingford's rifle, however, has put a quietus on any further depredations by this particular pair of marauders. The largest of the two eagles measured seven feet from tip to,tip, and weighed nearly fifty pounds. The American eagle is a proud bird of fame, but when he 80 far forgets his dignity as to make an assault on a little three year old child, our admiration of his kingly bearing is considerably lase u ed Seattle (IV.
