H
Tbs tnt Tribes f Israel. -W-I
wonder if there has ever been any
correct . answer made to . the query,
What became of the te a lost tribes of
Israel?" Of coarse nothing certain can
be known as to this matter Writers
must content themselves with specula
tive opinions based upon hypothesis and
altogether conjectural. It has been
argued after this manner that the
eighteenth chapter of Isaiah has refer
ence to the descendants of the lost tribes
who settled North America, but I never
could see it. These tribes, we are
taught, settled, at some period after they
were carried away from Palestine, some
where between the Caspian and . Black
and pushed on from there into
Sarmatia, occupying the country be
tween the Danube and the Don rivers,
whence they were driven by the succes
sive invasions of the Tartars, even as far
north as Lapland, Scandinavia, Den-.
mark and the .British Isles spreading
all over Europe. . .-.
It is seriously contended that the
Angles, Saxons and Celts are undoubted
ly the direct descendants of Ephraim and
Manasseh; and that our thirteen colonies
represented the thirteen tribes which
settled in Palestine under the rule of
Joshua, which colonies were made up
mostly of the descendants of Joseph.
The reasoning by which this teaching
is urged upon our acceptance is plausible
and quite ingenious; but altogether too
much has to be taken for granted. Cor.
Boston Transcript.
Enemies of Trapdoor Spiders.
It is difficult to say what may be the
enemies of the trapdoor spider, against
which such ingenious architecture has
been reared and such vigilant watch is
exercised. But the quite general testi
mony is that these spiders leave their
tubes at night and go forth in search of
prey, or, as in other cases, open the lids
of their tunnels and spread straggling
lines near by, upon which passing insects
are entangled and delayed long enough
to allow tne spiders to pounce upon
ffaem from their open caves. If we credit
these accounts we might infer that the
enemies which the trapdoor spiders most
dread are not such as are abroad at
night.
Evidently the creatures are fearless at
that time a state of mind which doubt-
results from their knowledge that
they are comparatively free from their
worst enemies. The enemies which they
most dread may therefore be reasonably
looked for among diurnal creatures, and
not among those of nocturnal habits.
Among these foes at least one of the
most formidable and irresistible is a di
urnal insect, the female of the terrible
digger wasp, which I do not doubt will
be found to store trap door spiders
well as tarantulas and lycosids. Henry
(J. McCook, D. D., in Popular Science.
The Iron Duke and the Toad.
Le petit Caporal was worshiped and
feared, but men loved and adored the
Iron Duke. Of the former, how few are
the kindly human traits recorded I while
of the other, to this day, fresh proofs
p coming to light of simple sweet
ness dwelling long in the minds of men.
The .following anecdote may serve as one
instance out of a thousand illustrating
the sympathetic nature of the great com
mander: It seems that the duke, in the course
of a country stroll, had come upon a lit
tle boy weeping bitterly over a toad. A
strange trio they must have been the
lean, keen eyed old soldier, the flushed,
Bobbing boy, and, between them, the
wrinkled reptile squatting, with tearless
eyes and throbbing sides. The boy wept
because he was going to school next
day; he had come daily to feed his toad;
the little heart was racked With grief
because he feared his darling would be
neglected when he was gone and might
starve. The duke's heart was as soft as
the boy's, for he undertook to see that
the toad was looked after. Blackwood's
Magazine.
How He Came to Marry.
The romance of the life . of the fur
dealer the late John Ruszits is interest
ing. ' " Some thirty years ago, while
abroad on a business trip, he visited a
friend at Stockholm, Sweden. While in
conversation with his friend in the tat
ter's parlor he heard music in the next
room. The pianist was a young lady
from Bremen, who was visiting there.
Mr. Ruszits turned to his friend and
said, "If I should ever marry 1 would
like to marry a woman like that." The
gentleman went to the door and called
the young lady in. "What do you think
Mr. Ruszits just said?" be inquired. Of
course the lady didn't know. Mr. Rus
zits struck in and said, "Well, I am not
afraid to repeat it," and he proceeded to
do so. . The lady looked at him thought
fully for a moment or two and then said,
"Well, I will accept." Thus his mar
riage came about. Cloak, Suit and
Ladies' Wear Review.
Army mud Kavy Iealh Rages
Army and navy death rates in time of
war and peace deserve much attention.
The official tables give as not only the
number of men killed in action, bat the
relative tendency to disease in divers
armies. For example, in the Crimean
war the British army lost 2,840 men
killed on the field and 31,000 who died
in hospital. It took 910 Russian shots to
kill or mortally wound an Englishman
or a Frenchman, and 700 English shots
to kill a Russian; but the havoc caused
by disease was far greater. If we study
these statistics with attention and act
upon them, we may reduce our cam
paigning losses by 50 per cent. We may
also learn some interesting physiological
facts,as that the proportion of Frenchmen
who die after amputation or other surgi
cal operation is greater than of British
or Russians. Contemporary Review.
' Sanitarians and health food people are
sounding the note of warning against
ingredients so common in oar everyday
cookery that we use them always as a
matter of course. The first danger sig
nal is hoisted alongside the bottle of
flavoring extract with which we make
tasty our cakes and puddings. These
extracts all contain alcohol, say the wise
ones. .
