He was unmarried, and made his home with his son Neil, who, with hie family, were just removing to Saplt Ste. Marie, Ontario.

The lumber pile's also went up in smoke, and the brigade experienced great difficulty in saving the adjoining dwellings, owing to the high wind, The fire originated iu the varnishing. room and was caused by a boy carelessly -throwing -down a lighted match.

AN ILLUSTRATED VILLAGE, Little $wOss Town One of the quaint. est In T•.,arope, When next you go to the Lake of Geltava, by all means pay a visit to the Iittle kno,wi'n village of St. Legier, near by, on the road between Vevey and Blonay, one of the quaintest vil- lages in I urope and one of the proud- est on account of its extraordinary adornments, St, Legier and the adjoin. lug village of La Chiesaz are nothing more or less than illustrated villages. They are as profusely illustrated as the modern magazine, for nearly all the houses bear on their outside walls some striking picture or comical cari- cature from the brush of a great roan in the village, M. Alfred Beguin, a painter of local renown and not un- known in Paris, says Pearson'a Maga. zine, A house in St. Legier has no use for a signboard to tell the world that it is an inn, a cycle shop, a forge or a dairy. iii. Beduin's picture does that. On a stable wall he draws a picture of a spirited runaway horse knocking down men as he leaps for freedom; on the white wail of the little village forge are pictures of men making horseshoes for dear life and shoeing a frisky steed; on the wall of the dairy a dairy maid balances a pail of milk on her head, while scenes of local life, as pic- tures of the annual summer exodus to the mountain pastures with the cows and goats, and caricatures of the local bigwigs make a. bright picture gal. lery of the village, M. Seguin lives in one of the most imposing houses in St. Legier, whence he obtains a full view of the crooked little village street and of the Dent du Jaman towering up in the distance. For many years past he has amused himself by painting the houses, and in the first place he ac- quired most of his skill and boldness in painting In this way. - HORSEHAIR SNAKES. Peculiar Habits of Theme Threadlike Little Serpents. The "horsehair snakes" an small, flesh colored mites which live princi- pally in stagnant water. After going through various transformations they come to the aurface of the water In the shape of very slender, purplish looking threads. When they reach this last stage, they leave the water and work their way up the stalks and leaves of aquatic plants. When opportunity af- fords, they attach themselves to the feet, legs, wings :.:id other parts of larger Insects, often, as one authority states, creeping under the wing case of beetles. In the case of the cricket, katydid, grasshopper and other insects of that Ilk, whose legs are hollow, the tiny horsehair takes the advantage and creeps up the hollows into the very vitals. This accounts for the fat and clumsy condition of some individuals of the above named species, single specimens of the cricket having been caught with over two dozen of these threadlike "snakes" attached to and inside of their bodies. After heavy rains, which frequently drown crickets and katydids which are weighted down by these parasites, the "horsehair snake" emerges from the carcass of the insect a full fledged miniature serpent. In this mature state he is the delight of the curiosity seeker and a mine of study to those who delight to delve in nature's bypaths. Those which have been for- tunate enough, not to have been carried very far from water by the insects which they encumbered during life make their way back to the ponds to lay their eggs. They then wrap them- selves around the eggs, which soon hatch Into the little flesh colored mites mentioned In the opening. About this time the parent "snake" dies to make room for its progeny. What the Witness Saw, "Do you mean to swear," said the foreman of the jury to the witness, "that at the time of the quarrel that constitutes the cause of this action you saw the prisoner with a coal scuttle in his hands making ready to heave it at his wife?" "Not exactly," said the witness, with considerable hesitation. "I mean to swear that I saw the prisoner with a coal scuttle in his hands," "In what attitude was he then?" asked the presiding judge. "Well, now, since your lordship has asked, I'll tell the truth. The prisoner was lying down with the coal scuttle over his head and his wife on the top of it." The jury returned a verdict of not guilty. -London Chronicle. lllessings horn of Sorrows. The world's greatest blessings have come out of its greater sorrows, Said Goethe, "I never bad an affliction which did not turn into a poem." No doubt the best music and poetry in all literature had a like origin, if we could only know its whole story. It Is uni- versally true that poets "learn in Suf- fering what they teach In song." Noth- ing really worth wtrfle In life's lessons comes easily and without pain and cost. Washington Timber, "Pennsylvania avenue at one time bad trees down the center, 1 believe," was the remark I made to A George- town man I met in a trolley ear, "Yes," was the gentleman's reply, "and now you can find presidential timber on ,nearly every, street iu wash- ington."- Cereals with eggs or vegetable oil furnish an the food elements necessary to sustain a man In health, no matter how laborious his occupation, Don't brood over the past nor dream of the future, but seize the instant And flet your lesson from the hour. - Ur. .1.
