Enabled Missionary to Gain Influence Over Savage Tribe. A well-known Church of England missionary among the aborigines of Queensland, Australia, gained great influence over a certain tribe in a very peculiar manner. This tribe had the queer custom of having the front tooth of the upper jaw knocked out. The missionary, by accident, had lest this same tooth and replaced it by a false one. When he | got talking with the aborigines, he would pull it out, point to the hollow place, and say, “Me, brother, belong to you!” ; In this way he gained the complcte confidence of the tribe, converte? every member of it to Christianity, and introdueed as much civilization as they were capable of assimilating. | The Lord Is My Shepherd. PSALM XXHI. The Lord my pasture shall prepare, ‘And feed me with a shepherd's care; His presence shall my wants supply, And guard me with a watchful eye; My noonday walks He shall attend, And all my midnight hours defend. When in the sultry glebe I faint. Or on the thirsty mountains pant, To fertile vales and~“dewy meads, My weary, wandering steps He leads, Where peaceful rivers soft and slow Amid the verdant landscape flow. Though in the paths of death I treaa, With gloomy horrors overspread, My steadfast heart shall fear ne 1); For Thou. O Lord. art with me atiil; Thy friendly crook shall give me aid, And guide me through the dreadful shade. Though in a bare and rugged way, Through devious Ionely wilds I stray, Thy bounty shall my pains beguile; The barren wilderness shall smile, With sudden greens and herbage crowns And streams shall murmur all around. —~Addison. German Betrothal Customs. When a maiden is betrothed in Ger- many she is called “bride” by her sweetheart, who addresses her thus | until it becomes time “wife.” to call her Immediately upon betrotha!l tke lovers exchange rings, which, if , the course of true love runs smoot, are to be worn ever afterward until death parts them. The woman wears her betrothal ring on the third fnzer of her left hand until she is married, and then it ‘s transferred to the third finger of her right hand. The hus- band continues to wear the ring just as the wife wore hers when she was a “bride,” so that one can easily tell at a glance if a man be or be not mort- gaged as to his affections.

Bird Sentry on Guard. * I was interested on Sunday in watch- ing the movements of birds. Crumb- Ung a biscuit, I threw it out, sat down on the piazza and awaited results. It was not jong after the birds came and helped themselves before a cat appeared. Then a warning note was sounded by a4 bird, evidently on guard on the top of the piazza, where he could survey the whole scene. At his warning every bird disappeared and remained in hiding until a reassuring note was heard from the little sentry posted on the piazza roof.—Boston Record.

The “Mirnesota” will sail on its next voyage to the Orient on Satur- day April 29th and it will mt be amiss to say here that the exce}lence of her passenger accomodations will ; be heralded to the travelling public of the United States by ali who en- | joy the pleasant voyage across the Pacitic on her first trip, as furnishing the acme of travel comfort.
