many years ago been sent as a mis

Jndian who could read, to whom he
gave a copy of the New Testament.
After the noble red man read it thor

baptized. The missionary according

about to baptize him, when the no

going to do with that?" "Baptize
you," said the clergyman. "Not deep

The missionary exclaimed that "that

ens. t j
Many artesian wells are in this
valley to furnish water for irriga-j

hole in the earth, and as the dirt is
drawn out a pipe is pushed in till
water is reached, which then rises to
thettop and flows over the edge. i
One hole was drilled for 750 feet
into the earth, and a flow of water
came up with a temperature of one
hundred and two degrees. Since the

to escape their notice when the lawn

The ostrich because of its resem

beasts and birds. There is a horny

which they lean while resting; they
have similarly formed feet; the same
muscular neck; their food is much
the same, and both can go an in
