It was in a jungle, says the Timet of | V~,;S'ndia. The beaters had been at work 'half an houi* when we heard a cry an- £*- - *• flouncing that the maneater was making (- his way toward the plain, hustled along - ' eomewhat by the volleys of stones, but |K Sharpening his claws and growling defi­ le * fence. In taking up our positions it so happened that Lieut. Farrington was on j^v toy right, in line with the mouth of the gully, and not more than 20 feet from toy elbow. He had a double-barreled <* rifle of heavy caliber, while I had a re- %l'" peater. In three or four minutes after the cry of warning the tiger appeared in -i ", the moutli rf the gully, head on to Far- yington, and looking him straight in the face. ' "Hold on! He's my meat!" shouted •. the officer as he brought his gun up, i|, • * and it became a point of honor with the 5^. ^fest of us to hold our fire. He took cool :«nd careful aim, but the bullet simply touched the skin between the tiger's ears. He dropped like a stone, but was tip in an instant, and with a roar to ;l\/» shake any man's nerves he sprang for- ^ V .Ward at the Lieutenant.

' "about his leg and rearing its head to a "' level with its shoulder. I forgot all . about the onooming tiger, and for the b first time in my life my blood seemed turned to ice. Farrington stood with r~ his left foot ahead and his right braced, and as the tiger touched jumped quickly aside and firing with his revelvor lodged a bullet in the beast's foreshouider that ^penetrated the heart. He followed him with three more shots, but the first did the business. The report started the eerppnt, which glided away, and the re­ maining shfljjtg from Farrington'a re­ volver finish ud it also.

A kind ft r gar den teacher writes to the Minneapolis Housekeeper to give some suggestions as to amusing the wee ones at home: "Listen, and I will tell you some of my plans, which would be equally as gouu io interest children at home. Did you ever use shoe-pegs ? If not y^u can procure a quart of the largest size, give each child a handful, and let them make the Roman letters, laying down one peg for the I and crossing two for the X. You can make figures of rakes, spades, and many other objects on the board, uwng short, straight lines to represent the pegs, and let the children copy them at their desks with the pegs. Another Vay to amuse and also to instruct » to cut two-inch,squares from bright-colored pasteboard boxes and Jet the children arrange them in pretty de- signs. You will find them VCTV convenient in teaching numbers as well, and if yon have a quantity of blocks so much the better. Mine are in the form of a cul>e, being an inch wide on all sides. They are also numbered nicely, so that I can use them in a variety of ways, I some­ times let the children stand at the table and give them the blocks to tell stories from. That is, I tell a story something after this fashion, There were five apples on a stand (each child takes five blocks), Harry ate one (they put back one block), mamma put three apples more on the plate (each take three blocks). In this manner you may con­ tinue to make tho examples long or short, as desired. The children like this very much, and will soon make up little stories of their own to tell to the class. But that which pleases them the most vi playing store. Toy money can be bought very cheap, and the chil­ dren will furnish any amount of trinkets to sell. Give a child a piece of money and let him buy something, allowing him to make his own change, or, to vary the program, let one of them be the clerk. This carried out in an orderly way, makes a most refreshing change for the little fellows, from adding and subtracting rows of uninteresting look­ ing figures. Children do not like one thing all the time any better than we do. They are also very fond of bright colors, and so you will find a box of colored crayons very acceptable. They can be bought by the stick, if desired. You will find that the little ones will make a red hat or yellow hen with much more interest than if the word was made simply of plain white. Any kind of flat seeds are very nice for them to use in learning to write. You can write a word or letter on their slates and let them lay the seeds neatly on the lines. In this way they learn the form of the letters very easily." Better than Kerosene. The servant girl who pours kerosene oil on the fire seems to have disappeared pretty completely. Perhaps she hits been to a considerable extent extermin­ ated. At any rate, we don't often read of cases of explosion and conflagration, though the vigilant housekeeper, if she happens into the kitchen, may still deteot an ordor which tells her that the girl must have poured oil on the kin­ dling either before or after it was ignited. But the Listener has a case which may explain why kerosene acci­ dents are not so frequent. The servant girl has discovered a new fire-quick- ener. It was in Boston, and not long ago, that the mistress of a house, not much given t^ going into the kitchen, entered one day, unexpectedly, just in time to catch her kitchen maid in the act of emptying a spoonful of granulated white sugar into the fire. Sugar is exceed­ ingly inflammable, and its application made the fire flash up in excellent shape. The head of the house had noticed that he was called upon to pay for a great many barrels of sugar, and his wife had wondered at the families enormous con­ sumption of that article; but she did not wonder any more, especially as the girl, under pressure, confessed that she had regularly been using the sugar to quicken the fire. "Sure, mum," she said, "we must have the fire, an' the coal burns that slow that me heart is broke waitin' on it!"--Boston Trans­ cript. Sixteen Lost,--One Saved. At a public dinner given to Geo. Harrison When he was a candidate for the office of the President of the United States, one of the guests, rather con­ spicuously, "drank to his health." The General pledged his toast by drinking water. Another gentleman offered a toast, and said, " General, will you favor me by drinking a glass of wine ?" The General, in a very gentlemanly way, begged to t>e excused. He was again urged to join in a glass of wine. This was too much. He rose from his seat and said, in the most dignified manner: "Gentlemen, I have twice refused to partake of the wine cup. I hope that will be sufficient. Though you press the matter ever so much, not a drop phall pass my lips. I made a resolve when I started in life that I would avoid strong drink. That vow I have never broken. I am one of a class of seven- ten young men who graduated at col­ lege together. The other sixteen mem­ bers of my class now fill drunkards' graves--and all from the pernicious habit of wine drinking. I owe all my health, my happiness, and prosperity to that resolution. Would you urge me to break it now?" • The effect on that company may be imagined. . } The Yalae of a Tote.

People driving out of Corry, five miles over the border in Warren Couuiy, Pa., come to the small village of Colum­ bus and there pass a large frame farm­ house, the doors and windows of which are always wide open in warm weather. The floors are uncarpeted, says a writer to the New York Morning Jour­ nal, and pigs, chickens, and ducks wan­ der in and out of the building at will. The tenant himself, a tall man, white- haired and quaint in appearance, who is nearly eighty years of age, may fre­ quently, on a sunny afternoon, be seen stretched ont on the floor, his bare feet sticking out of the front door, with a newspaper covering his face to keep' off the flies, in a sound sleep of rujal, com­ fort and unsophisticated rest. This remarkable individual is Barnes Greeley, the only brother of the only Horace Greeley, who, for pixty-five years has lived on this farm, and ia the last surviving member of his family. When Barnes Greeley is awake his many eccentricities, his unfailing good nature, his abundant lil»eralit.y. as well as his intelligence and warm-hearted friendliness, which are well known and appreciated for miles around, make him a great favorite with his neighbors. His friends--and, by the way, he doe.* not seem to have an enemy--tell many kindly anecdotes of this remarkable old man and his peculiarities. The farm on which he lives is a large and fertile oue, and would long ago have made a thrifty man independently rich, but Mr. Greeley seems to care to make only a living out of it, and is happy and content in the familiar company of his pigs and poultry, of which he is very fond. Many years ago, when Horaoe Greeley and Barnes were bovs together on the farm, which was then in a very wild dis­ trict, and years before Corry became the prosperous place it now is, the former, who had gone to the East, to seek the fame and fortune he achieved and was learning the printer's trade would come for a vacation, and the two would go oft* fishing and hunting together. The printer's apprentice then, according to his brother, was as awkward in the for­ est as Barnes was in the parlor. Horace never had any luck with hit) rod or his gun. He never got a bite in the trout brook and couldn't hit the side of a barn, not to mention a wild rabbit. Barnes, however was a fine sportsman and usually came home well provided with game or fish, frequently bri down an antlered buck or doe. Even in those days Horaoe was full of ambition, and in their lonely tramps through the woods would unfold his bright schemes to attain future great­ ness. His sympathetic brother listened while these inspirations were confided to him and always encouraged their in­ dulgence, although he admit* now he had but small faith in their realization. Horace never forgot his kindly en­ couragement, and when he became a great New York editor he remembered his homely and uncouth brother in the back woods. He sent for Barnes to come to the metropolis and offered him various positions. He made lijm his traveling agent and then gave him an editorial chair to fill, but lie could not fill that or any other place he would ac­ cept and so he went back to his farm. He says to-day, of his metropolitan ex­ perience : "I returned because I preferred to be a king among hogs rather than a hog among kings. And he has been literally ever sinoe "a king among hogs," and chickens, and turkeys, and ducks, for they are hiein­ ferred companions. Hints About Men's Dress. A well-dressed man is always partic­ ular about his hats and shoes. One may have his shoes half-soled, but they should never be patched. If possible, one should have a tall silk hat and a derby. A silk .hat is to a man what a best bonnet is to a woman. It is indis- pensible with a double-brested frock coat, and it is very correct to wear it with a cutaway, but not trith a sack coat. The derby hat, on the oontrary, always looks well with a sack coat or a cutaway when one is at business. It may be worn in the evening with a dress suit when it is merely seen on the street or getting in or out of a carriage at a theater. Hats of all kinds when laid aside should rest on the crown or on the side; never on the brim with the crown up. Resting on the brim, with the crown up puts the hat out of shape. A light hat is never good investment for , a man who likes to dress economically, on the principle that, while you can wear a black hat at any time, light- colored covering for the head does not look well on a dark or rainy day. "Cultivate the habit of wearing gloves whenever there is an excuse for it. They keep the hands clean, and adds to one's comfort and to the appearance of comfort in the winter. A man with his hands stuck into the sides of his over­ coat or into his trowsers pockets, looks more or less wretched or parsimonious. Buy dark brown or brick red kid gloves always, either stitched with black or with silk of the same color. Only, don't let your hands be conspicuous. At a funeral, for instance, one should wear black gloves and a dark tie. If one is going to daiiee, it is always proper no matter what the passing humor of fashion may be, to wear gloves, so as not to soil a lady's dress or her gloves. Evening gloves should be light lavender or white, heavily stitched with black or white. Never be afraid to wear gloves or dress suit on proper occasions, whether any one elso does so or not. A man can always afford to be the best "dressed gentleman in the room. ^ . . ? The Camel's Hump*. , ' • Structurally, of course, the humps are nothing--mere lumps of fat, col­ lected under a convenient fold of the skin, and utterly unprovided for in the framework of the skeleton. When the animal is at its best and well fed, they i are full and plump, standing up on lus I back firm and upright; but' on a long j journey they are gradually absorbed to i keep up the* fires that work the heart j and legs, and in the caravan camels i which arrive at the coast the skin hangs J over, an empty bag,, upon the creature's flanks, bearing witness to the scarcity j of external food during the course of his long forced march from the interior. A starved small camel in this state of health, far more closely resembles a Peruvian llama than any one who has only seen the fine, well-kept beasts in European menageries or zoologicol gar­ dens could really imagine. But water is even scantier in the desert than food; and against want of water, therefore, the camel has had to provide himself, functnally at least, if not structually, quite as much as against war.t of herbage. His stomach has ac- onritngly aoquirad the power at acting w r 1 as an in as water the bafcftferwmlyift, h»s toil­ some mafafe. as "wak aappto his- needs for four or live together.

But it is easy to show that ft is purely fanciful. First, the earliest newspaper dates from 1662, and we find the won! news, exaetly in its modern sense, in Shakspeare, who died nearly fifty years earlier, namely in 1616. Thus we have fMacbetH, 1, 7,) "How new?" "What news?" ("Winters Tale," 4, Cho.) "But let time's news be brought!* ("King John,") "Even at that news he dies." This list, which might be extended indefinitely, from Shakspeare and other old writers, would alone be sufficient to dispose of the north, east, west, south theory; but a reference to the equivalent words in the tongue to which England is most nearly allied will show its fallacy. In German the initials of the points of the compass read in this order: "N., O., W., 8,." while the word for new is neuigkeilen, obviously impossible of derivation from these four letters, while it is derived from the word new-. Again, in the French the initials are N., E., O., S., while the "wor^ for < news is nou-,. velles, once more 'simply the plural form of new. " ; Tho true derivation does net seem difficult to trace. Some take it directlv from the German, das neue, which in an abstract noun signifying *the new" andequivalaut to our news. ̂ The genitive is neuce, and the phrase "Wa-s giebta neuesf" render the exact sense of our " What's the news ?" Moreover, the old German spelling is neu\ genitive, newes. Yet this, plausible as it looks is not the origin of the word. When we find in Anglo-Saxon such a phrase as hweet niwex? (what news?) we eanbe at no loss to determine that the word is of pure low German or native English ori­ gin, although the Trench nouvellea may have influenced its use. The fact that the word is often Used in the singu­ lar confirms this. Thus we have in •ioiiii ilurio's "World of Words" rioSS,} "Novella, a Tale, a Kcwes.", In the "Wit's Recreation," published in 1649, we have the following epigram; 1 . When iiows doth Mine, if nay. wOalu dt«eilwi • • The lett«r of the wor<i, ratKliwd if timu : News is conveyed by, letter, word, or mouth* ' And come to up from nortb, eut, west, sad south." i • The little corps ct the newspaper fraternity were then beginning work in England,' and being tickled by the above epigram.

Dogs of deninm «- That dogs have anything like what we know as genius has often been dis­ puted, but well authenticated cases of exhibition of that quality are by no means uncommon. Their ittBtincts are as pronounced as (hose of mankind. There methods of reasoning, too, strike one as the same, and bright dogs often give their imagination play and origi­ nate a means of accomplishing a pur­ pose that would be called genius in' man. They have what might be termed an instinctive language, which is noth­ ing more or less than an expression of their emotions, the meaning of which they Warn from association with each other. Then ^hev have a more reason­ able language, which is a means of making their wants known to mankind. Some of these methods of indicating their wants are simple and have been acquired or taught with little difficulty; but others again are of quite an intri­ cate nature and are inventions born of the imagination. A man living in one of the suburbs of Chicago has a pair of rabbit hounds, one of which is a partic­ ularly bright sp*>cimen of his kind and fond of hunting. His mate is rather dull, and fond only of hunting when ac­ companied by the mkster. The brighter dog, however, has a fondness for going hunting without his owner, and often goes to the woods near by to give "bunny" a chase. He tried in various ways to get .his mate to go with him, but that stupid fellow did not seem to understand What he wanted, and all Rea­ sonable methods failed to get him away from home. The bright dog. finally hit upon a successful plan. He would go to a field near by and chase about it, giving tongue as if in earnest chase of a rabbit. This attracted tho other dog's attention, and, believing he was follow­ ing a real trail, he would join him. By the time he reached the spot where the dunning little hound had been barking the bright dog would be chasing a phantom trail somewhere els<% and in hot haste the stupid hound would join him. By this time they would be well away from home, with their hunting blood well utirred, and the bright dog would have no further trouble in -lead­ ing his mate to the brush where real game was to be . fouud. In this way the stupid dog was taught by his companion that there was real fun in hunting with­ out the master, and after once having got the idea in his head he was ever after­ ward easily led away for ajfew hourfrS 01 o( HnttUor'i . tMttM to published by A Co., PftUbo/gfa, ?»., xnidme tbetr own 1 (uparrUton, employing so hands In that department.
