While he was engaged in fighting off this bear, Wood, to his horror, saw the animal he had wounded rise and rush toward him. No blows that he could inflict on the wounded animal could check her. At the first spring she made the tree broke and the bears jumped for Wood. He gained his feet and made with all speed down the mountain, where another smal! tree stood about thirty yards away. Ile reached the tree with the wounced Lear at his heels, and, seizing the t he swung his body around so as to give the bear room to pass him, which he did, plunging headlong down the mountain about twenty yards. Before Wood could, with his failing strength, swing himself into the tree, the second bear bounded up and seized his right ankle. By this time the wounded bear returned, and as Wood fell she snapped at his face. He dodged, and she caught his left shoulder. Then came a terrific struggle. The maddened animals tugged in opposite directions at Wood's ankle and shoul- der, and he was in imminent danger of being torn to pieces. He fought as best he could, but each exertion he put forth only intensified the rage of the bears. When he was almost fainting with pain the bear that had not been wound- ed dropped his ankle and trotted slow- ly after his companions up the ravine. Then the wounded bear let go her hold on his shoulder. Wood sank back on the ground, and lay perfectly quiet, as though dead, hardly dar to breathe. The grizzly stood majestically over him, watching for the slightest movement, and snarling with rage. The pain that racked the man’s frame was frightful, and he risked his life in an effort to as- sume an eusier position. At the first movement the grizzly, roaring furious- ly, rushed at him. She shoved hernose close to his face and sniffed at him, but Wood was again motionless, and the bear, raising her head, gave vent to un- earthly screams. Wood, knowing that his life depended e tree, off as the inten- avuyan Sheshadri, a full- blooded Indian, by birth a Brahmin, who is in this country for his health, with his son, Dr. Sheshadri, who re- ceived his English education in Bom- bay and his degree from a Montreal college, is said to be the first Brahmin of Western India to be converted to Christianity. He was converted forty- eight years ago. ‘Twenty-five years ago he founded a Christian village, with two persons as nucleus, and it now numbers over 2,000 Christians. —That the American Baptist mis- sionary union and the Presbyterian foreign missionary board find them- selves burdened with debt at the close of their business year does not show that the contributions of the churches have fallen off, but that the expansion of the work more than keeps pace with their increase. ‘Thus in the case of the Presbyterian board, the gifts were greater by $148,000 than in the previous year, yet the society closed its year with @ debt of $15,000. This, however, is $60,000 less than the debt of the pre- vious year. From the missionary so- cieties of all denominations comes an rnest appeal to the supporting churches for a large increase of gifts, soasto make possible the utilization of new opportunities which are open- ing up on every side.—Loston Journal.

Buck, the latter of whom had been left to guard the camp, found him and carried him to their quarters. At this spot the party remained twelve days, subsisting on the meat of the bear that had been killed) They were lost in the mountains, but finally Wood, despite his agony, insisted upon being tied to a horse and accompany- ing his friends in search for a path to civilization. During the ten days that followed every step of the horse that Wood rode caused unspeakable torture to the rider, but Wood bore it likea martyr, and an occasional groan was all the complaint that escaped his lips.

There isn’t a man in all New York, well dressed or ragged, who dares stand on the curb and scoopacent's | worth of yellow ice cream out of a tiny tumbler with his tongue, as the boys do, to say nothing about “licking the glass’ after the solid has disap- peared. It is different with the mil shake business. Let your collar begin to “lop,” the perspiration to trickle down behind your ears. and your cuffs to grow limpsy, and nine men out of ten will think of a glass of cold milk before anything else. There isa never- ending tide of humanity passing be- tween that wagon and the figure in bronze on its stone pedestal Half of them are thirsty. Half of them smack their lips as they think of the treat of. fered at their elbows. Now see how curious human nature is. It takes a bit of nerve to detach yourself from the erowd and stand up to the wagon and quaff your drink. You haif turn, hesitate, go on, and are vexed with yourself for lack of moral courage A dozen others ge through the same perfor after you. Then comes a man who doesn't care a copper for public opinion and he turns in and says: “Milk shake, eh? have it cold!” And froma milk-can as clean as tin can be kept the man dips out a big half- Pint of milk as fresh and pure as you would find it in the farmhouse cellar, pours it into a tumbler, adds strawber- ryor other flavoring, and claps ons cover and places it under the agitator. A dozen turns of the crank and it is “bobbed” until thoroughly mixed, and he rakes in your nickel and hands you out something which goes right to the spot and causes you to whisper to your- self; “Ah me! But that does me good!” And, sheep-like, the crowd has fol- lowed you, and a score of men and boys and office girls are ranged along the wagon and holding their nickels aloft. Buttermilk has the first call, perhaps because it is only three cents a glass, but the milk-shake is the old stand- by and winning new customers every day. It is solid from top to bottom. ‘There is no froth to blow off. The powdered cinnamon or nutmeg gives it an agree- able flavor, and you hang on to the last swallow in a grudging sort of way never known even to sweet cider. The milk-shake man knows the public de- mand cleanliness and purity, and he complies. He knows that men are hur- ried and he's lightning in his move- ments. And he’s a bit of philosopher, too. When I was talking with him the other day he said: “If I wanted to study the different phases of human nature [I'd watch peo- ple right here. Out of fifty no two act alike while they drink. You can very often guess at a man’s profession by the way he empties his glass, and it is also pretty y to tell where he hails from. I've seen a Kentuckian empty that glass at theee swallows. and I've known a Canadian to be ten minutes getting away with it. A broker makes about five gulps to get to the bottom of the glass. A lawyer or doctor takes a swallow and then stops to think. A re- porter will drink half and then stop te jot down something. and so it goes. No one can be mistaken ina farmer. You can hear the liquid go clurg! clurg! clurg! as its strikes his Adam's apple, and when he reaches the end of the string he planks the glass down with one hand, wipes off his mouth with the back of the other and declares: lance Gimme one and “Say!

The three young wemen were walk- ing abreast—perhaps sauntering would be the better word—and as the street was rather crowded and the sidewalk not extraordinarily wide. the young man who came up behind them found some difficulty in passing. He tried the outside, but people moving in the op- posite direction kept driving him back behind the trio.

Children are often confused by points of etiquette which older people regard as binding, and not understanding the circumstances, act with a directness that is irresistibly funny. Mildred was dining with several gen- tlemen at Uncle James’. It was quite an honor. She sat up straight, and was on her best behavior. Now at the table there happened to be a gentleman fond of telling stories, and at every story he told the company laughed, as polite- ness demanded. But before he had talked long, Mil- dred perceived, to her astonishment, that the stories he told were all old ones. Some of them Uncle James had told her himself; some of them she had heard many a time; many of them she had read before. She looked at her elders indignantly. How could they be amused at such worn-out jokes? At last she could stand it no longer. The gentleman told another story, and everybody laughed heartily. Looking the story-teller straight in the face, she exclaimed, contemptuously: “Yes; I read that touncle myself. It was in the paper last week.’ It took Mildred several years to find out why they laughed harder than ever, and why Uncle James said afterward, with a chuckle. “You took his house down that time, ee sree, 's Young SOE: The ¢ nadians. There is much nonsense written about the Canadian distinctive national type (1am not now alluding to the French Canadians) as different from the Amer- ican. As a matter of fact, only a per- son gifted with microscopic powers of observation can discover any essential differences between Canadians, in the English-speaking progressive provinces, and Americans—that is, di which are equally marked inhabitants of different sections of any country. Ther. is not, for instance, the striking contrast that exists be- tween the people of Massachusetts and Virginia. It is worthy of remark also, that there is more in common between an average Canadian from the east or west, and an average American hailing from the same quarter, than there is between a Londoner and a genuine Yorkshireman or Cornishman, as the former do speak the same tongue, and the latter do not.
