FARMER BILLY. Billy tied his comforter over his ear, and drew on a stout pair of mittens. You might think that'he was starting for a long journey in stead ot only to the barn, but the weather was cold, and where Billy lives people' must look out for frosted ears and fingers. Billy's father bad left home for a day or two, and Billy was to do the "chores" meanwhile. So, of course, he was very proud as he hung the lantern over his arm and trudged along the path that was shoveled from the house to the barnyard, between two banks of snow so high that only his little smiling face could be seen over the top. It was very early in the morning. Not even a chicken was stirring in the yard. Billy could hear Miles Standish, his Plymouth Rock rooster, crowing in the hen-house. "The lazy old fellow!" laughed Billy. 'le is afraid to come out in the cold." le peeped in at the window and saw the liens huddled close together on the perch, trying t>keep one another warm. When they saw Billy they hopped down all in a flutter, and came bustling ont for their breakfast. Then Billy must feed the cows, White Rose and Red Rose, and Mrs. Hooker, the cross black heifer. Billy was half afraid of her, she s:ared at him so queerly, but Daisy, tie spotted calf, poked her petty head through the bars and licked his hand with her little rough tongue, as if to say, "Thanks for your morning call!" Billy took his father's long pitch fork, and prepared to toss down same hay for the hungry creatures. Wheni he went round the barn to the other door he saw that it was partly open. ",Guess I forgot to shut it last night," he thought. "Father would say I was careless, but"--here he suddenly stoppe(, for he heard something moving about in the barn. Billy's heart gave a great thump. This was a new experience for him. He had been the first to enter the barn for a great many mornings, an(] at this time of the year it was always. dark. But lie had never thought of danger, although lie knew that in very cold weather when food was scarce, bears had sometimes come (downi from the mountains behind the house, to mrake a hasty dinner from some farmer's sheep or pigs. One of their neighbors had shot a bear not long before, so it was no wVonderC J3illy opened his eyes very wide wheni lhe heard this strange noise. lie held his lantern up high over his head and( peeped in. There was very' little light in the barn, for all the windows were covered with hay, bug Billy could see that there really was a large animal of some kind ini thle furthest corner. It raised its head and1( stared. In fact, the strange beast, what ever it might be, was a good (deal more frightene<d than Billy. It had nieveri before seen such a queer sight as a boy with a lantern, and to get away from himi it dashed aeross the barn ar'1 leaped into a d<ep bay wvhere niay had been stored, but wvhichi was now empty. Then Billy knew it was caught. Nothling, however, spry, could jump~ out of this place. lie hold the lantern over the edge and look (d (down). how delighted lie was to see not a bear, but a beautfil. deer, withI long, graceful horns and big bright eyes, looking up at him withI such wvonder ! The poor creature had been driveni from the woodls by hunger, for the deep) snow covered the h)ushes and sprouts which he usually guawed during the winmter. Finding the barn-door open lie ventured in anid had a fine feast of hay all night.. But he stayed a little too [ate, and now lie was a prisoner. Billy was very proud of his prize. Hie kept himi in the bay all winter, and fed him, and p)etted hiim till they were quuite good friends. Then spring camne, and one morning the pen was empJty. The nimble fellow had somehow scrambled out of the bay, and was olft to his old home in the mountains again. Billy missed his pot, but he could not blame him for preferring the bright spring woods to the, dim and dusky barn.-Scottish American. THE REN AND THE aw. A little questioning often reveaI a vast amount of ignoratce iU those who think tbemselves very *Ise. A French writer tells the following story : A young man from the Provinces, who was sent to Paris to flnish his education, had the misfortune of getting into bad company. He went so far as to wish, and finally to say, "There is no God; God is only a word." After staying several years at the capital, the young man rettrned to his family. One day be was invited to a respectable house where there was a numerous company. While all were enter taining themselves with news, pleasure, and business, two girls, aged respectively twelve and thir teen, were seated in a bay window, reading together. The young man approachf . them and asked. "What beautiful romance are you reading so attentively, young ldies?" "We are reading no romance, sir; we are reading the history of God's chosen people." "You believe, then, that there is a God?" Astonished at such a question. the girls looked at each other, the blood mounting to their cheeks. "And you, sir, do you not be lieve it?" "Once I believed it; but after living in Paris, and studying philo sophy, mathematics, and polities. I am convinced that God is an empty word.' "I, sir, was never in Paris. I have never studied philosophy, nor Ray Of those things which you know; I only know my catechism: but since you are so learned, and say there is no God, you can easily tell me whence the egg comes?" "A funny question, truly. The egg comes from the hen." "Which of them existed first, the egg or the lien?" "I really do not know what you intend with this question and your hen ; but yet that which existed first was the lien." "There is a lion, th i, which did not conmo from the egg?' ''Beg your pardon, miss, I did not notice that the egg existed first." "There is, then, an egg that did not come from a lien?" "Oh, if you-beg pardon-that is-you see-" "I see, sir, that you do not know whlether the egg existed before the hen, or the hen before the egg." !'Well, then, I say the lien.'' ''Very well, there is a hen which did ntot come from an egg. Tfell men now who made this first lien, froni which all other hens and *eggi come?'' "With your hens and your eggs, it see ms to mue you take me for ii [poultry dealer." "By no means, sir; I only ask you to tell me whence the mother ol aljl hens and eggs came?'' ''But for what object.?" "'Well, since you do not know, you wvill permit mie to toll you. Ik wvho created the first lion, or as you would rather have it. the first egg, is the samne who created the world; and this being we call God. You, who cannot explain the existenet of a hen or an egg without God, still maintain the existence of this world without God." The young philosopher was silent ; he quietly took his hat, add full ol shame, departed, if not convinced of his folly, at least confounded b3 the simple questioning of a child, Hlow many there are who, like him, professing to be wise, n-< very foolish, speaking evil of things they know not of, and denying things they have never investigat ed,-Lutheran Pioneer, ' olvig aProlem. (From the Recollections of Aubrey do Yere.) Sir W. it. Hamilton kept a head. strong horse, to which he had given thte name of Comet, and used te gallop it in circles, or perhaps in ellipses, roundl the laan. On one 00. oasion lie mounted him in Dublin jusit after a curious mathematical pr'blem had suggested itself te him. The horse took a mean ad vantige of his ahatraction, and ran away. "When I found it imupossi. ble to stop him," he said, "I gave him his head, and returned to the problem. He ran for four miles, and stood - still at my gate-just i a The At oorrect copy of Sir Ar thur Sullivan's great -song, "The Lost Chord," ever printe&i!

Raqkin's views of the bicycle were expressed several years ago in a let ter published, which has recently been brought to public attention, and contains the following: "I not only object, but am quite prepared to spend all my best 'bad language' in reprobation of bi-. tri and 4-, 5., (3- or 7- cycles and every1 other contrivance and invention for supere.ding human feet on God's grnnd. "To walk, to run, to leap and to dance are the virtues of the human body; and neither to stride on stilts, wriggle on wheels nor dangle on ropxs. and notbing in the training of the hnruan mind with the body will erer supersede the appointed God's way of sow walking and hard working.'

Coniidering the importance of his work and the hardships he endured in pursuit of it, th( rt has bon siu gularly littlo written about the youtg Swedish explorer, Dr. Sven Hodin. A few months ago he completed a journey of three years and seven months in the most inaccessible and least known parts of Asia. He tra versed mountain passes nearly fif teen thousand feet high, in a tem perature of nearly forty degrees be low zero; he explored and measured a lake nine hundred feet deep; he climbed nearly to the top of an un explored mountain twenty-five thou sand feet bigh; he traversed the un explored Takla-Makan Desert, and in doing so went nine days without water losing all but two of his com! panions and coming off himself with the merest spark of life. Certainly here is a heroic story scarcely equaled in the annals of travel and explora tion; and it has gone thus far prac tically untold. But R. H. Sherard has prepared a full account of Dr. Hedin and his discoveries and ad ventures, based largely on conver sations with him, and it will be pub lished in McClure's Magazine for December, along with numerous il lustrations from sketches and photo graphs made by Dr. Hedin himself during his journey.
