A very curious instance of boldoes* to swsllows ? w?i recorded to ISM from Ceylon. In this case the birds built over a lamp In the dining room; whet made their choice of site mora remarkable was the fact that the lamp could be releed or lowered by counter weights and .the connecting chains auctuslly passed through the mud walls of the nest. Occasionally the bird selects a nest* !ng site which invites comparison with the boldness of the roblo. In July last a pair of swallows took advantage of the open window of an unoccupied bedroom In a bo-ise at Kelmersham In Bedfordshire to begin building their nest on (he curtain rod of the bed. The return of the owner of the h^jise and his occupation of the bed <n? not In the least disturb or alarm the birds, which completed the nest and brought off three nestlings within fceven weeks of the bouse owner's re turn. They took no notice of the oc cupant of the bed when flying In and out of the wjndow feeding their young; but the hen bird would fly off the nest If any one entered the room during the daytime. Three years ago a pair of swallows built their nest on top of the ehade of an electric lamp which hangs outside tho asylum at Narborough, near Leicester. ? Daily's Magazine.

Wbeu Jenu left the Ca|i?rMiu& i/u agogue lie went to fit. Peter' ? home. There St I'eUi'* mot her- In law lay aick of a fever. It was tbe work of but a moment for the Savior to take tier by the hand and to raise her lip to health. Meantime the fame of Jesua had spread and by evening there were crowds importuning His healing word* and touch: "And He healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out uany demons, and suffered not tbe demons to speak, because they kneW Mm." Nothing is more attractive to the hu man miud than tbv mlraculoua iwiwcr of beating din* ease. Jto one en Joy h disease, pain and suffering. 1'eople would be glad to I Hi I tea led of disease, even If they were assur ed that the cares were performed by tbe power of Satan blinaelf. It should not sur prise us today that many false doctrines, wbblly out of harmony The true healer restor ing HI. Ptlcf 9 mother. with God's Word, commend themselves to the poor, groaning creation by promises of relief from physical ail rnent*. > Hut Hince then? healers hold various and antagonistic doc t lines, It In muni fest that all aro not of God. if any of thera are. To our understanding, the lilble teaches that no miraculous heal ! Ing nt the present tline is authorized by God's Word. St. Paul declared by i Inspiration that the gifts granted to the early Church, and exercised by Jesus and the Apostles and those to whom they personally communicated them, would pass away. The miracles were merely with a view to the establish ment of the early Church. Neither the Lord Nor the Apoatlee Healed Believers. It Is quite true that under the Law Covenant which God mado with Is rael He agreed that sickness would be q penalty for violation of the Law, and health a reward for the obedient. The statement of' the I'rophet, "Who heal eth nil thy diseases." was applicable physically to the Israelites under the Law Covenant. It has also a spiritual application to the Church, the New Creation. . But the healing of the New Creature and the healing of his flesh are differ ent things. The New Creature's soul sickness and heart troubles are all cured by the Good Physician? even though his tlesh may suffer pain and go down Into death. We are to remem ber that the condition upon which we wcrn begotten of the Holy Spirit to bo new creatures was a full surrender of the flesh and Its Interests, as living sacrifices.? Romans xil. 1. Nor in this any change from the Lord's dealings with the Church from the very beginning. So far as the records show, all. or nearly all, who were healed by Jesus and tho Apostles, were "sinners." Surely there Is no record of a single in stance In which any of tho Apos tles were healed of any disease. Although St Paul healed many sick, yet when Bpa phrodltus was sick niul "nigh unto death" we have no mention The counterfeit heiiler. cf any attempt to miraculously recov er hiin. Similarly, In the case of Timothy, we find that St. Paul neither sent him nap kins nor handkerchiefs for his healing, nor advised him to pray for his own healing. On the contrary, he advised certain medicines, "t or thy stomach's sake." Indeed, wo believe that for God's consecrated people to ask for physical healing would bo to attempt to take back again what they have specifically consecrated to the Lord. A Cleansed Leper Thankful. Today's lesson mentions another case of healing. Leprosy was regarded by the Jews as an incurable disease, and as a type of sin. Tho leper of this study had faith in tho power of Jesus, and camo and kneeled before Him and entreated healing, cleansing. His prayer was answered. Jesus admonished tho leper not to make known so great a miracle; Wat in his thankfulness ho could not restrain himself; he told it everywhere. The result was that Jesus could not there after visit the large cities because He would be overwhelmed with the num ber brought to nim for healing. ?r2*V: But alas! they were moro apprecia tive of the restitution blessings than the great privilege which our Lord specially offered them of becoming His followers and Joint-heirs in His King dom, which, by and by. will dispense restitution blessings and healing far and near to ever y member of Adam's race, condemned through the fall of Adam, 'and redeemed by the precious blood of Calvary. TAMMANY. Tammany? India a war chief, m ** more sachem and friend of tbo while man- -Is beet remembered today by (be society tbat bears bU name Hut be w?* famous a century before Tam many Hall waa built. "Hlatortana were few and amateur rontaucars were ma?y la the Peaaeyl vsala wilderness of olden times. Sq for one true story of tbe great Tam many there are 20 fanciful legends. And oftentimes it is bard 10 separate fact from fancy in telling of tbe old ttagamore'tt career. Tamtuoy was ruler of tbe Delaware Indians early in tbe seventeenth ceB fury and was leader of tbe Leoni-Lea nape confederation of New York and Pennsylvania tribes wblcb in those days waged eternal warfare against ,tbe fierce "81* Nations" and the sav ages who Jived on and around Manhat tan island. He was a king, rather than a chief, and ruled his wide domain wisely. In various native dialects be Is called Tatocnand. Temane, Tam inent and Tammany. His huge "pal ace-wigwam" is reported to have stood upon Ibe site of Princeton college. Welcomed William Penn. When William Penn and hia fellow Quakers landed in Pennsylvania, with a charter to settle that region, it was Tammany, according to most accounts, who first greeted tbe great English man aud wbo made him and his com panions welcome guests of his "na tion." Tammany it was who smoothed the way for tbe newcomers and in duced the nelghboriog tribes to receive thc-m peacefully. He is said to have been a party to Penn's .celebrated treaty with the natives, and to have cemented so close a friendship be tween Quakers and red men that, while English-Indian wars waged con stantly in nearly all tfce other colon ies, Pennsylvania was Immune from bloodshed. So mighty was Tammany and so deeply revered that his tribesmen in later years were wont to bestow his name upon any person on whom they wished to confer special honor. The. Indians looked on him as a sort of god and vrpuld travel hundreds of miles to bring him their troubles for adjust ment. It is probably to some of these Worshipping Indians rather than to any really authentic facts that we owe the following tale of Tammany's prow esB, a story that used to be told and retold at a thousand native camp tires: Tfie "Evil Spirit" (or some powerful j and malicious Indian chief who be came known by that name", because of his crimes) coveted the wealth and peace and easy life of Tammany's do minions, and sought to gain foothold there. Tammany knew that if the "Evil Spirit" should once establish a home in Pennsylvania the justice and kindly feeling that had been so care fully fostered among the local Indians must give place to strife and sin. So he forbade the "Spirit" to set foot in the realm. The "Spirit" insisted, and Tammany had to use force to check his advance. Battle With "Evil Spirit." A long and terrible battle ensued, lasting several months and dyeing the green forests red. At last Tammany overcame his foe and drove him forth In utter tdef eat The "Evil Spfht" lied to Manhattan island, where the god less natives received him enthusiastic ally and made him their ruler, begging him to remain among them forever. The truth of the story ? if truth there was ? probably lay in a war be tween Tammany and some rival chief who was forced, by the Pennsylvan ia's victory, to fly for safety to Man hattan. ? Tammany and his Delawares hated Manhattan Island and its inhabi tants. In the Delaware language Man hattan (or "Man-na-matta-nink") means "a place of general drunken ness." It Is thus the- more peculiar coincidence that Manhattan island should now be the spot where, Tam many's name is enshrined. The many reports of Tammany's wisdom, of his goodness to settlers, etc., led later admirers of him, in Revolutionary times, to refer to him as "St. Tammany," and to call him "the patron saint of America." His name was placed on some calendars and his festival celebrated on May 1. Prom "St. Tammany" a New York po litical association (founded just after the inauguration of President Wash ington) took Its name. Its first meet ing was held May 13, 1789. In mem ory of its namesake's Indian rank the officers were known as "sachems." A "Tammany Society" was also found ed in Philadelphia and on its outings strove to reproduce the "local color" of the great chiefs times and cus toms. ' Rewarded the Dog, at Least. Said the vacationist who had re turned in a cynical mood "Up in the country where I rusti cated for fwo weeks the ,nine-year-old son and the ten-year-old dog of a wld* ow who did washing for hotel guests saved a rich little girl from drowning. The boy had on his nice little bailor suit, which his mother had raked and scraped for months to get, and of course it was spoiled. But the little girl's mother said.
