The Horse and His Rider.
In the history of Rome, says Joseph
Cook, it is related that in 831, B. 0., a
great chasm opened in the middle of the
forum, which it was found impossible to
fill. The soothsayer said it would close
when it contained what Rome possessed
of most value, and tho state would be
perpetual. A noble youth named M.
Curtius demanded if Romo hod anything
of more value than arms and valor. He
and, mounted amid liis horse, richly of caparisoned,
tho silence tho people,
spurred him over the brink of the vii. fro
ntendons precipice (vide Liv. 1, 6).
I have seen a striking picture of this
somewhere. It represented the horse
and rider after they had passed the brink
and were descending to the unknown
depths. There was a remarkable con
trust Indwcen the fright of th.-liruto and
the unruffled self-possession of the man.
The limbs of the horse were tightened to
his body ami the muscles of his neck
drew his head to his chest, and a shud
dering f bj terror starting expressed itself The in rider the flash
u s eyes, was
serene and calm, with a solemn expres
sion of majesty on his face, as of one
who lived with high thoughts. If I
were to spiritualize this picture I should
say that it was no mean representation
of a ripe Christian departing this life,
The horse is the body and the rider is

A Hawk Steals a Hat.
A few days ago, as a son of Mr. Nich¬
olas Norrish, of Nassagaweya, was pass
ing through the woods on his farm, he
noticed a hawk hovering $v'H around near
him. Thinking nothing about the mat
ter, he walked on, when all at once, and
before he had time to make any defense,
the bird dived down and caught Ins hat
in its claws and carried it alolt. When
the bird got about the height of the trees
t let the hat drop .—Montreal Witness.
The best feed for young chickens is
oat meal and corn meal mixed, wheat,
cracked com and other small grains,
They must have fresh water before
them always. Green food is good for
them in small quantities. The game
hen is the best sitter and mother—she
can cover thirteen to fifteen eggs. Games
are good Siseased foragers and very healthy fowls,
All fowls should be kept from
the flock. A bran mash mixed with
meal is a good morning feed.
