Now Besser's troubles begin. It
is not easy to lasso one of the young
because they are much smaller than
any of the surrounding animals,
and to aggravate the situation the
lords of the herd, enraged by his
attack on its weaker members and
perhaps emboldened by the sight of
the big horse, to whom they may
impute the trouble, without observ-
ing tbo strange abimal astride hire,
come back to bite and kick the
horse. He naturally responds in
kind, at some peril to his rider,
who, intent upon his gauze, was
once unhorsed by this proceeding.
Bosser since that accident has
been ready to Meet the emergency
with a shot or two from his revol-
ver, which scatters the hales in wild
flight. Sometimes he fails to cap-
ture a colt, but he is usually suc-
cessful, and has now a ane herd of
young zebras, whose training be-
gins from the day of their capture.
They learn to feed from his hand
oe basket, and as their training ad-
vances he leads them by a halter,
bits them, walks them around with
harness on their backs and filially
gives them little loads to pull. None
of his herd is yet large enough for
actual service.

- EATING 326 EMIGRANTS.
Hevoared by the Natives of the Is-
land of Ito osel.
Although cannibalism is supposed
to be extinct, or nearly so, over the
greater portion of the earth's sur-
face, there occurs every now and
then a nasty reminder of its con-
tinued persistence in odd, dark
corners.
Thus, in the Congo Free State the
other day, some European officers
of the wrecked steamer Ville do
Bruges furnished a feast for the na-
tives. And about the same time a
similar revolting episode happened
in Gorman New Guinea.
It says volumes, however, for the
spread of civilization, that such
tragedies are now as rare as they
were common fifty years ago. Then
cannibalism was rife throughout
Polynesia, so that to be killed,
cooked, and eaten was the almost
invariable fate of sailors who chanc-
ed to be so unfortunate as to be
cast away on any of the outlying
little -visited islands.
Perhaps the most awful tragedy
of the kind on record was that
which happened in connection with
the loss of the St. Paul. Captain
Pennard, while on a voyage from
Hong Kong to Sydney. This fine
steamship carried, besides a full
crew, no fewer than 327 passengers,
mostly emigrants. On September
30th, 1858, she was wrecked on the
island of Rossel, but all got safely

these troubles, or if given occasion-

Mrs. Geo. Mineault. Jr., Mont

stomach troubles, and cried a great

3. The Extravagance of Cheapness in a Seviilig Machine
9 Every woman knows the foolish extrava-
gance of buying anything for her house
just because it is "cheap."
q Every woman also knows that what seem
"dear" at first is often "cheapest in the end."
9 Yet the woman who will urge her husband
to buy a thoroughly good overcoat because
he gets several_ season's wear out of it, often
buys some unknown sewing machine for
herself because of its "bargain" price.
1j Now the Singer Sewing Machine costs very
little more than thrown -together, catch•
penny machines. Yet one Singer will out•
last several of the ordinary kind.
II The Singer has earned the reputation of
running as smoothly at the end of its
twentieth or thirtieth year as the day it was
bought. Considering this, the Singer is in
the end the cheapest machine to own.
