However hard up I might be for " ? i ?' l . x_ ood, a traveler writes to loums Companion, I should never shoot a nonkey or a baboon. I never yet net a man in Africa?hunter, tradir or prospector?who would intenionally kill one. Occasionally you come across a ourist who will take a shot at one 'or sport, just as you will come icross a cockney who would take a shot at a barnyard duck, but the nan in Africa who makes a prac:icc of killing monkeys is unknown, [f you have ever heard a wounded laboon crying or heard a female jaboon wailing over a sick or dying xtby you will understand why. A baboon is fairly easy to train, jut you cannot trust him. I do not hink real affection between a hunan being and a baboon has ever ?xisted. You may have one for f'ears, yet you can never touch him vithout fear of a bite or scratch. Baboons know too much. I think :hey know something we do not snow they know and look on us as rather "soft." In the Transvaal war, when I was with Kitchener's fighting scouts, we lad an old baboon called Malan, vhicfr kept with us during the &*hole campaign. Be belonged to ao one, had no regular keeper and ran loose just as he pleased. Talk about a thief! I think Vfalan knew every trick of any pickpocket or sneak thief in existence No one ever noticed him stealing. Be would watch a tent for hours, md the moment it was empty something would disappear. Poor Malan was a hero, too?if just getting in the way of a bullet constitutes bravery. Anyway, a bullet smashed his forearm, and he appeared in the casualty lists just like in ordinary soldier: "Malan?Fractured forearm; condition favorable." But if you could have seen the look on his face while that arm was in splints! No human being who ever lived was so sorry for himself is poor Malan. He simply craved pity?simply begged it with his eyes and evenr other part of him. He looked so abjectly sorrowful that it was impossible to keep from laughing at him. Zoro?st*r. All classical antiquity, without a lissenting voice, speaks of Zoroister as a historical person. But there is great diversity of opinion with regard to his time, the date of O / iiis birth being placed all the way from 5000 B. C. to 800 B. C. He probably lived about 1400 B. C. From ail accounts the father of the aid Persian faith possessed a most beautiful character and gave the world many of its finest teachings. There is no doubt that in the Persian Scriptures, known as the Zend A vesta/ we have the substance of Zoroaster's teachings, though, of course, they have been greatiy added to. In the present day Parsees ef Bombay we have the historical lescendants of Zoroaster and his followers.?Xew York American. Rolls of Rico.

Francois Rene, Vicomte de Chaeaubriand, some twenty years before his death, writing to the mayor )f St. Malo, his native town, made ;he request that the town would p-ant him on the west point of the ock of Grand bay a space sufficient 'or his burial.
