Six years ago she entered into married life with George Edgar Davidson, her now mourninghus- band. She leaves behind her a little boy of three years. Until 26 years of age Mrs. Davidson was to all appearance a strong, healthy woman. About five years age a hemorhage of the lungs laid the seeds of consumption in her nature, and during the - last two years the disease made rapid pro- gress. With her husband she spent the winter in Cincinatti, hoping the warmer climate would restore her to health. Early this summer, conscious of approachiug death, she hastened home to die. Loving hands did all that could be done to help her, as with patience she waited the sum- mons of death. From a girl Mrs. David - eon was of a kind, amiable and loving dis- position. These qualities were made more apparent after her conversion, which took place in Victoria Street Methodist church seven years ago. She had no fear of death, but longed for it during her last sickness. An unusually large concourse of friends attended the funeral services on Friday afternoon. The funeral sermon was preached at the house by Rev. H. Irvine, from Rev. 7, 14-17- Rev. Dr. Ure assisted in the services at the house and grave.

A wetchtnaker, in Newusetle, recently completed it set of three gold shirt studs, in one of which is a watch that keeps excellent time, the dial being only three -sixteenths of an inch in diameter. The three' studs are connected by a strip of silver inside the shirt bosom, and the watch contained in the middle one is wound by turning the stud above. The hands are .set .by turning the one below. It is said a watchmaker of Geneva, Swit- zerland, named Casimir Liven has just com- pleted a watch, which, instead of striking the hours and quarters, announces them like the phonograph. The mechanism of the witch is based on phonographic con- ditions, the- bottom of the plate containing a phonographic eensative plate, which has received th'e'impression of the human voice before being inserted in the watch. The disk has forty-eight ooncentric grooves, of which twelve repeat the hours, twelve those of the hours and quarters, and twelve more those .of the houro and seconds and third quarters. Saved by His Horse, A FIERCE STRUGGLE. " riak about a dog being a man're best friend." said an old horse -trainer to me, "1 say the best friend a man has among the lower animals is a horse. Horses will be just as affectionate and faithful as dogs if you use them right,and a blamed eight more useful. To be sure they won't lick your bands for kicking 'em. They've got more spirit than that, and I admire therafor it. I bad a horee once that saved my life, and that's more than any dog everidid for me," "flow did it happen ? "It was ten years ago, w country horse doctor, and u to break ugly colts for the horse was one I had raised frem a colt and she knew me like one of the family. Her name was Mollie. She was a high strung animal, if she was gentle, and one needed to understand her in order to drive her. There was a farmer living near by who bad a colt which he wanted broken, but the brute was so vicious that half a dozen men had failed to do anything with him. I thought 4 was a pretty good horaeman, so I concluded one day I'd try him. I drove up to the farm and, is I didn't expect to use Mollie again that afternoon, I turned her loose in the field to roll. Then I caught the colt. The farmer told me he would lead all right, eh I wasn't looking for any trouble till I tried to bit him. I was walking along ahead of him with the halter strap in my hand, when the devil got into him. Before I noticed that he was mad he started -for me, mouth open, and began to strike with his front feet. Tina's a trick no horse gets except from in- born wickedness. He knocked me down the first blow, and then backed Off a few ateps and gathered himself togetl-ei. I saw he was going to.come for me again, and I tried to crawl out of the way, when all of a sndden I heard hoofs coming from behind, and Mollie oame up at a lull run. She dashed right at the ugly colt, and, wheeling around, gave him both her heels' in the chops. Then she planted herself between him and me, and there was the stubbornest fight you ever saw for a few minutes. Both horses screamed like human beings, struck and bit at each other, and neither would give an inch. At lad laollie got the colt by \I I was a ed sometimes armers. My All Sorts.

They are a part of one's self, and whether the family meal consist of many courses or only a cup of tea and a slice of toast, it should always be served decently and in order, and the manners of the household should be such that one need not blush for them, even in the finest oom- pany. As soon as a child is old enough to come to the table he should be taught by precept and example what good table man- ners are. If the father and mother be so unfortunate as not to have had proper train- - ing themselves, they should study to correct any bad habits they may have, for the sake of their children. Let it be understood that good manners are not the acquiring of every new wrinkle that fashionable so- ciety may prescribe. There is a great dif- ference between good manners and good form: What is good form to -day may be very bad form to -morrow, but good manners are not changeable. Unselfishness, kindly feeling and politeness are the foundation of good manners. Good table manners demand that one shall take eoup from the side of the spoon ; shall eat with a fork, rather than a knife; shall take small mouthfuls of good and mas- ticate quietly, making no unpleasant sound; shall take in tne fingers no food except fruit, confectionery, olives, bread, cake, celery, etc., and that the members of the family shall be as polite to each other as to any guest. Where people rush through their meals there is not much chance for table manners or good digestion. If properly =imaged, the table cen be made one of the most refining influences oft the home. — Ladies Home Journal. From his, Standpoint.

They dug several holes on a knoll in a wheat field, and soon after four "kite," or young foxes, arrived. Every day,' while harrowing and sowing whet in the field, says the farmer, I saw the two ol8 foie" lying on the little mound in front of their home. The kits rolled about in the sun, played wiih the bushy tails of their parents and enjoyed themselves apparently as much as a group of kittens. One morning a neighbor came to work in a field adjoining, bringing with 'him a dog, and the dog, with all the curiosity of his kind, soon began the investigation of both farms. He was still a long dietetic° from the fox - den when I heard a sharp, warning bark and saw the kits disappear. As I looked, the mother -fox lay on the mound, her ears erect, her nose on the ground, all attention. The fatter of the family, with his big tail swinging in the wind, trotted toward the dog. Can he intend to attack him? I wonder, I had never heard of such a thing, and the dog, though not a large one, was still larger than the fox. But reynard knew hie busi- ness better than I. He approached the intruder until the dog saw him,. when both stopped for an instant, and then the dog gave chase. The fox, with a bark of de- fiance, turned and ran in a direction away from hia home. At first the dog seemed to gain rapidly upon the fox, but I watched them for nearly a mile before they disappeared in the prairie -grass aud concluded that the fox was able to keep out of the other's way. In about an hour the dog returned from a fruitless chasesand for a time he contented- ly followed his master. Then he began prowling around again. All this time the mother fox had remained on the mound, a picture of quiet vigilance; but now, as the dog again ventured near she rose and trotted toward him, and the dog was soon chasing her over the prairie. Hardly had they disappeared when the male trotted back from some hiding place and took the position vacated by his mate. The dog returned, after a time, unsuccess- ful as before. During the day he was again and again tempted to a chase, first by the male and then by the female, and while the one kept him busy, the other watched over the young, who did not show themselves after the first sight of the dog. It is hard to say which we admired most the bravery of the pair in challenging the dog to a race that would have proved fistal had he caught them, their ingenuity in taking turns so that each might be fresh when chased, their skill in leading him away from their young, or their cleverness in throwing him off their track when far enough away.—Youth's Companion, girl then heard of the services, which were the priest to desist nd gong -beating.
