She had been so exeited though over the , arrival of the little ‘calf who had come into the world to make her so happy hat she hadn't been noticing the wenther and the terriffic storm. She was a little distance away from home when_ Shivers:had arrived and had said In his dear ‘calf volce, ‘Mother, I'vé come to be with you. “How his mother had smiled on him, such a motherly smile. “‘My darling, I am glad' she said, and turncd hGr great cow eyes upon him. “And in a few moments she noticed how bad the storm had become and how dark it was. “And when Shivers was only ten minutes old he and his mother were quite, -quite lost. “Night came on and shivering more and more Shivers stayed near his mother. “How worried she was, how she trled to comfort: him and keep him warm. “ My little baby,’ she said, ‘do not | leave me, T)o not leave your mother.’ And a tear or two fell from her great eyes. “‘I cannot imagine how we ever came to be lost,’ she sald. y “But the storm howled and raged and the great Storm King said: “‘L. coyld tell you how. Becausedof us? \ “‘T've'been so happy,’ she sald. ‘nd when you arrived my happiness was complete. But now, oh dear, I cannpt bear. to think we are lost and must perish.’ v “But that eveping, storm they saw.a light. “It was' the light from the lanterns which -the farmer - and his wife were carrying. “‘Bossy, Bossy,” they shouted. And through the darkpess of the storm Mother Cow.answered them, “They were found sand then . they were shown the wdy back home, and through the' A Light. when they reached home how care- | fully and kindly they were treated. “They were rubbed and dried and comforted. They were petted and loved. “‘We thought we had lost you,’ said the farmer's wife. ‘Oh, how giad we were when we found you and your dear baby calf. And how we rejolced when we heard your voice.’ “‘We have many cows and many | calves,’ sald the farmer, ‘but we want- ed you and_your dear calf too. We weren't happy ' without you, dear Mother Cow.’ “And Mother Cow licked her’baby calf which was her way of kissing him and said in her cow voice: | “‘Dear Calf, how lucky we rre to have such a master and such a\ mis- tress. They have many cows, butjthey [ wouldn't let one of us suffer. And\they came out in all the terrible stormjand saved us.' “Shivers was called Shivers because he had shivered so hard and sojlong after they had found him. Andj too, one of hig ears hud been a little ifrost bitten. “But no aceidents happened) be- equse of the time spemt in the dread- ful storm and all was happiness fter this. “I had looked everywhere: for!shel- ter, the cow tried to tell the farmer, and the farmer seemed to understand. | “< thought so,’ he sald, ‘but ftjwas | : hard to find anything in a storm\like that.” h “‘But you found us,’ thejcowsaid, using the Moo words: she aliwaysfused. ‘And_you saved my darling)baby) calt too,” she énded happily.” { } i Seen at Opera.

Weird and Savage Rites Indulged In | by the Khliysts, - Sect of | Russian Fanatics. 1 One of the queer religious sects of { the world is the Christs or Khlysts of | Russia. They hold thelr meetings in | their churches with hundreds of men, | women and children attending. After prayers and hymns that last until midnight they begin a wild dance amid { sobs and groans. After this con- tinues for a while they abandon their garments and put on white robes and white stockings. Candles are lighted, and a new dance begins that consists of rapidly revolving, the men to the I right, the women to the left. | In a short time a sort of madness | falls upon them. They leap, scream, beat themselves and each other, in- dulge in wild laughter and cries, and then begin to tear off the garments with shouts of “It Is coming, the Holy Spirit is coming!” They begin to go about on all fours, riding on one an- other’s backs, rolling about on the floor, biting and scratching one an- other, and at last go entirely insane and dash about until they fall ex- hausted. By dawn the church floor is covered with naked men, women wand children, unconscious and blood- stalned. Weather's Effect on Birds. Cold and hunger in England has driven armies of birds, even the wild- est, into streets and gardems and un- wonted places, Great flocks of green plover, which are singularly shy as a rule, appeared in the stackyards and | paddocks qof Hertfordshire villages. In Buckinghainshire several thousand ! rooks In a flock was no rarity; and old séouts came right up to the back doors and competed for thelr food with the poultry and the pigs. In Lon- don it was curlous to see the pigeons feeding busily on the Ice, to the obvi- ! jous frritation of the gulls, whose bills re uscless for securing fragments Yrom a hard surface.

Then lier brother rose, pulled her hand away arbitrarlly and pushed the but- ton, The older sister stepped into 1he vestibule, followed by her sister, to be the first to step off the car. As 3t stopped, the brother brushed them aside and led the way., The sisters having alighted, walted for the car to go on, but the boy rushed across the tracks, ignoring the warning clanging of the bell by the motorman. Microbes in Sugar Bowl. Alout one per cent of the Cuban sugar crop, valued at $1,500,000, is each year destroyed by greedy micro- organisms too small to be seen except when congregated in crowds of mil- lions. Molds and bacterla are the culprits. 1t Is estimated that each person in the United States consumes 81.84 pounds of sugar each year. At this rate, 873,000 persons could be sup- plied with the sugar destroyed by germs. The sugar loses its sweetness when the molds consume the sucrose, its “sweetening” principle. — Marble Cheaper Than Wood.
