"I could hardly wait to get at it," Aunty Neli continued, "and 1 was just reaching out for the silk thread when a wasp flew in at the window, and circled round my work -tray, so that I stopped to hole" "Was it a stinglr.g wasp," asked mo- ther.

I think she. too, had a weak- ness for color, for she finally daubed the clay plump on the open end of the blue silk spool, and flew away for more. 1 was too curious to touch my spool while she was gene, nod soon she came back and daubed on more clay."

Tragedy of a Young Woman Held With- out Trial. The suicide in the fortress of St. Peter and Sl.. Paul, St. Petersburg, of a young woman named Dorofieff. who had been imprisoned there for nearly six months vvilliout trial, has caused as painful a►1 impression as that of the girl Vielrnva, who committed suicide in the same piece !tout eight or ten years ago by pouring over herself the oil of the lamp with which her cell was provided and setting herself on fire. Dorolieff strangled her- self by tying her hair round her neck, fastening the end of the plait to the foot of the bed and then leaning back till death released her. She was a young married woman, barely 22 years of age, who carne to Sl. Petersburg with her husband in the spring of last year. The two lived a quiet, simple life, and nttractel little no - tire from their neighbors, until shortly after a revolutionary outrage, when they disappeared. The police made a desee•nt upon their apartment and left a few mors in permanent ambush. When, two days latter, the husband returned alone, he had hardly entered the hall when they rushed out with loaded revolvers and arrested him. Two days later he was executed in accordance with the verdict of a field court-martial. The following day the woman Dorn- fieff was arrested. She was Immediately incarcerated in the Fortress of St. Peter and Si. Paul, and since then, according to the newspaper accounts, she was kept in complete ignorance as to the fate of her husband, the jailors not being allowed to reply to any of her questions. 'fie news of her husband's death, it is said, was conveyed to her on the eve of her suicide. She had been dead for several hours before it was discovered thnt she lied put an end to her life. She was buried secretly at night time in the i'reobajen- sky.Cernelery, where nre the graves of many of those who fell during the shoot- ing to lied Sunday. \Vho sho was and who her husband remains a mystery. Those who knew her during her stay in St. Petersburg describe her as an ex- ceptionally beautiful and attractive wo- man of superior intelligence and educa- tion. CfIILD110OD AILMENTS.

NO SURGEONS THERE. My attention was forcibly- called to the condition of (hese people in this respect during my visit to that country last sum- mer. Only two days after leaving Atha- basca Landing in a steamer our cook took sick with what was apparently ap- pendicitis. 11 was soon evident that his case was serious, and it Was extreme d. tressiug to see him growing wor day by day, while of the fifty or oto on the Leat no one could do anything save his life. After about a week of i tense .suffering he expired, and now fol a lonely grave on the hank of the Ath bnska Iiiver, far from his former home in England.
