The fear that if we are bad and unfortriven
here it will not be well for u in the nAjt ex
istence is the chief influence that keeps civil
ization from rushing back to semfharhar
im. and Bemibarbariom from rushing into
mlehty savagery, and midnight savagerv
from extinction, for it is the astringent Im
pression of all nations. Christian and
heathen, that there Is no future chance for
those who have waste 1 this.
Multitudes of men who are kept wUhin
bounds would say "Go to. now? Let me
get all out of this life there Is in it. Come,
gluttony and Inebriation and uncleanness
and revenge and all, sensualities, and wait
upon me ! My life may be somewhat short
ened in this world by dissoluteness, but that
will only make heavenly indulgence on a
larger scale the sooner possible. I will over
take the saints at last and will enter the
heavenly temple only a little later than
those who behaved themselves here. I will
on my way to heaven take a little wider ex
cursion than those who were on earth pious,
and I shall go to heaven via gehenna and
via sheol." Another chance in the next
world means free license and wild abandon
ment in this. "
Suppose 3-ou were a party in an important
ease at law, and you knew from consultation
with judges ani -attorneys that it would be
tried twice. , an 1 the first trial would be of
little importance, but that the (second would
decide everything, for which trial won Id von
make the most preparation, for which retain
the ablest attorneys, for which be most anx
ious about the attendance of witnesses? You
would put all the stress upon the second
trial, all the anxiety, all the expenditure.

nerai, post sepulchral, and the world with

you remove to another house larger and bet

There is something pathetic about
the account of the death of the female
chimpanzee which Professor Garner
brought from Southwest Africa. Tha
names given by the professor to his
friends were Aaron andElishaba, anl,
much to his regret, Eiishaba has fallen
a victim to the severe English weather. .
She really died in the arms of poor
Aaron, the mate, who hal been most
assiduous in his attentions to his con
sort during the whole of her illness.
Professor Garner was present during
the last moments of the chimpanzee,
and when he put his hands t her heart
to see if it had ceased to beat Aaron
put his han 1 there too, looking up in
the professor's eyes as if inquiring if
dhat was all they could do for her.
Aaron would not suffer his depirted
love to to be taken from him, and
clung to her body with such tenantv
that the professor was compelled to
lay it down on its bed of straw, whin

his protege next day poor Aaron woald

games are all marked by a literarj
character, the gama of logomachy, ot
word-building, which has gained suck
popularity in this country, having
been played long ago by Korean school
children. 'A number of their games
ho declares "ha l their origin front
mystic concepts. Many of the child
ih fports had orginally a seriout
divinistic' or expiatory signiQcance.
The tug of-war, for instance, was
played by tho- people of villages
and districts to ascertain which would
be tho luckier. Kites were used as
scapegoat', being released with in
scriptions to the effect that they were
carrying away misfortune. Mere toy

games possess a decidedly ethnic char

A Hank's Capture ot a Pigeon,
A hawk captured and killed a carrier-pigeon
in Druid Hill Park after a
protracted chase. The lightning-like
movements of the pursuer and pnrsned
were a revelation to those who were
not versed in the flights of birds. Tho
pigeon., oh long" as it kept in a straight
line, beat they hawk flying, but on W
coming frightened and confused it be
gan a zigzag course and was then an
easy prey. Captain Cassell frightened
the hhwk so that he got the pigeon,
but the pigeon was dead when it strucii
