Her Apology.
A VI8I0N.
A little girl who bact a foolish habit of
plain speaking was taken to the sewing circle
with her mother. On entering the room,
after exchanging greetings with several
matrons of her acquaintance, Miss Truthful
walked up to another lady, and in the confi­
dent tone of one who gives utterance to a
self evident fact, she said, loudly enough for
every one present to hear:
“Why, Mrs. Handley, how homely you
are!”
While the victim was hiding her confusion
as best she might, and the rest were trying
hard to conceal their amusement, the young
lady herself was hastily taken from the
room.
Once in the hall, she was dealt with some­
what severely, and made to feel the enormity
of her unintentional rudeness. Then she was
taken back to apologize.
Walking straight up to Mrs. Handley,
while all the ladies held their breath to listen,
she said, with trembling tones and with the
tears still upon her cheeks*.

A Monster Wildcat.
A fifteen-year-old boy, while riding horse­
back over the prairie in the Sybille(Wyom
ing) country, the other day, suddenly came
upon a monster wildcat that was crouching
among the bushes along the route. Instead
of trying to get away from it the brave
young lad got off his horse and proceeded
to pelt the animal with rocks and finally
succeeded in killinit.

Last night, in the sweetest dream,
I saw my mother’s face
Aglow with warmest love,
As we met with fond embrace.
O brightest, holiest hour!
Where lay thy mystic power!
A wind sighed ’mong the leaves;
The clouds hid all the light;
My dream was o’er. My heart still
grieves
For her who came last night.
This morn on a grassy mound.
The summer sun shines bright;
The lily lowly bends
Robed in her garments white.
The rose its petals cast;
Too sweet, too bright to last.
Sweet saint, serene-and bright!
To me the bliss was given
To lure her from her home of light.
But ere the morning skies were bright
She wandered back to Heaven.

The Monkey at the Wedding.
The popularity of familiar sights in un­
familiar places was instanced at a wedding
In one of the small interior villages of
i western New York. It was_ a noon house
wedding at the show residence of the place,
and the reception following the ceremony
was in progress when down the road came
a man with hand organ and monkey. At-
! tracted by the persons strolling about the
I lawn and piazzas, the fellow stopped and
' began his melodies with monkey accom­
paniment.
Everybody was interested, and soon from
indoors the guests began to wander out,
drawn by the spirit of the multitude, which
was evidently centrifugal. The bridal party
found -themselves deserted, and at last suc­
cumbed to the general movement arid fol­
lowed the others, the bride even yielding to
her feminine curiosity and coming out
with the rest on the piazza.
The monkey outdid all previous perform­
ances in his line. He climbed awnings,
ran up and down vine trellises, and capped
the climax and uncapped himself at the
top of a tall flagpole in the center of the
lawn. Meantime the orchestra inside,
playing to empty rooms, put aside its in­
struments and assisted by its silent pres­
ence the rival entertainment.
Most of the guests were city people. A
large party was from New York. Proba­
bly not five out of the entire company
would have crossed a street at home to
watch a monkey’s antics. In these altered
circumstances, however, the same thing
amused them for half an hour, and when
the swarthy impresario took up, with his
company of one, the line of march it was
with pockets fairly heavy with the silver
showered upon him.—Her Point of View
in New York Times.
The Ali-Ullah-hi.
There is so much that is similar to Chris­
tianity in this religion that I am tempted
to hazard this suggestion, that the Ali-
Ullah-hi are a branch of decayed Chris­
tians; so many branches occur in this dis­
trict—the Nestorians, the Chaldeans and
the old Assyrian churches; it is not there­
fore difficult to imagine how the ignorant
and nomadic mountaineers would substi­
tute the name of Ali for that of Christ, to
prevent themselves being persecuted by
the followers of Ali or the Mohammedans
of the Shiah sect, who ruled in these parts.
In the lapse of ages in their mountain
fastnesses, without education and priest­
hood, they would naturally get hopelessly
and lamentably mixed. The very name of
Nazere is suggestive of Nazarene; the pass-
over, the baptism, and the curious fellow­
ship between them all tend to substantiate
the theory. Many of the Eeliauts, or wan­
dering tribes, who come from a distance
to pasture their flocks in the summer
months, belong to this sect, of which Sar-
mas Beg and his sous are said to be shin­
ing lights.
The orthodox Mohammedans attribute
to this sect many secret and horrible
crimes; they are said, to be communists.
Later on, at a village called Ilkatchee, we
met a Seid who had been converted to
Christianity by American missionaries, al­
though he renounced thereby the chief po­
sition in his village and leader of the sect,
which he had inherited from his father,
and exposed himself to dire persecutions.-
“I can prove no such thing.”
At midnight Mrs. Armytage was the
sole occupant of a room in the second
story of the spacious house which Col.
Armytage and his staff occupied. The
windows looking out on the same large
garden from which Oliver Willett had
been taken as a spy not long before, were
wide open, for the atmosphere was sul­
try. Mrs. Armytage sat by a table.
During an hour she had scarcely stirred
from one position. Slowly she had come
to a clear appreciation of what had hap­
pened, and she was waiting, as one
strapped to a guillotine might, with aw­
ful dread—awaiting the fall of" the
blade—for her husband to come with the

said: “He made me a proffer of his love.
I repulsed him. I told-him that he must
never see me again. He -followed me to
the city and asked me to fly with him.
Then he was arrested. That is the truth,
as I live. He is no spy. Now you will
save him, will you not? There must be
some way of doing it; when you are con­
vinced that he did not come here on the
errand imputed to him.”'
“Is that all you wish to say?”
“Is that not enough?” she replied, a
little bewildered, and-feeling that her de­
termination- was melting away.
“You are trying to deceive me. Your
motive I do not condemn,.'but the de­
vicefails. Yoùr pity for him has im­
pelled you to a desperate effort to save
his life. You have exceeded what duty
to your friend required.”
“I have told you the truth, as there is
a heaven above us!”
“Stop!” Could this cold; stern old
man be the petting husband she had
known? She looked .at him in wonder
and fear. “You- have forgotten one
point—-the document that he destroyed.”
She felt that this was the time and the
. last to tell- all that she had left untold.
She raised her eyes to his face and saw
that he was iron. Again she resorted to
a fragment of the truth-.
“That was a letter from me to him
commanding him not to seek me.”
“If that be so, why should he have de­
stroyed it? There is nothing to such a
letter, the hidingMff
would be
worth a man’s life.”.
She could have met this objection with
the little that remained unconfessed—
that the letter contained her confession
of love for Oliver Willett. She had in­
tended to tell that, and to trust to her
husband's indulgent love for forgiveness;
but now she was convinced that he would
not forgive that one fault She was
silent, and ere she knew it, he had quit­
ted the room.
The colonel went at once to the impro­
vised guard house where Oliver Willett
was awaiting the execution of the sen­
tence of death. The young man had re­
peatedly asked himself why he had de­
stroyed the proof that he was not a spy,
and as often he vividly remembered his
promise to Mrs. Armytage; made in the
solemn nature of an oath, that he would
sooner die than reveal the secret of her
love. Then the idèa would get upper­
most in his mind that he was throwing
his life away in an unworthy cause.
Swayed by these opposing considerations,
and oppressed by physical dread, he was
fast settling into'apathy—something that
was beyond his previous agitation, and a
relief from it, when Col. Armytage en­
tered.
“Mr. Willett,” he said, “youhave only
a few hours to live, unless you ••can yet
prove that your errand was not that of a
spy.”
Oliver guessed that thè colonel sus­
pected the truth, and, on the quick im­
pulse of shielding the woman of his
worship, he exclaimed: “I cannot do it.
I expect to dio.”

An Ancient Work on Angling.
The greatest work of antiquity on
angling is said to be the Haliéutica of
Oppian, a Greek poet, who flourished in
the tirfie of Severus. A. D., 198, from
which we leam that many artifices in
fishing thought to be modern were known
to the ancients. We also learn from

some centuries before the Christian era.
