farmers of marked ability, men
of fine attainments and women of

positions they are so well quali

diffidence. When called upon to
do something in tlie presence of a

denly forget-whnt manner of men
and women they are anil suffer

else. If they would only remain

Animals’ Lung Sleep.
There is on record the case of a
snail that went to sleep on the
24lh of March. 18-17, and slumber
ed until March 7, IS50. It was
picked up in the Egyptian desert,
and having retired lo the topmost
recesses of its shell, it was stuck
to a piece of card board asifdcad.
It was labeled and sent to the
British Museum. For four years
it showed no signs of life, when
sonic one thought they saw it
move, and a warm hath was or
dered. This aroused his snail
ship and lie cautiously put his
head out of bis shell anil walked
on tup of the basin. In Africa
there is fomiil a inui-1 fish that has
the faculty of remaining a long
time in a stale of torpidity. It is
found on the shores of tlie Gambia
River which, during the hot
months of summer, is dry, but as
if anticipating the drought, the
Lnpidnsircn, as it is called, crawls
down into the soft mud and there
remains. The mini a ll around it
meanwhile bakes into a solid
cake. By the natives it is esteem
ed a genuine epicurean delicacy,
though it would hardly suit civi
lized palates. The animal leaves
a small hole from the cell to the
outer air, which the naturalisTs
say is proof that in its state of
torpidity the fish still breathes.

During the terrific thunder-
stoiin that came over the city last
week a little eight-3-ear-old boy
living in the northern part of the
town was awakened, and callct
his mother, who was sitting in the-
drawing room down stairs. She
sat with him awhile, and told him
he need have no fear, because God
look care of little liovs, and would
not let tne lightning hurt them.
“But God is awa3 - up in heaven/-

“Yes,“ replied the mother, “In t

Triplets Twiee in Abont a Year.
A little more than a 3-car ago we
recorded the fact that Mrs. George
Poore, of West Newbury, gave
birth to triplets—two boys ami a
girl. The girl lived but a shoit
time after birth, and the boys
grew Iiealtli3-and strong anel ate
alive and well to-day. Now we
have the pleasure of recording an
exact repetition of the circum
stance. This week triplets were
again born to them—two boys
and a girl. The girl breathed a
short time and died; the bo3's ate
as strong as infants at that age-
can lie expected. The mother is
doing well with her four boys, tin-
eldest of which is bnt a trifle over
a 3-car.—Mass. Advocate.
