nt i ns on A Region of Outdoor Life Decidedly Fa- vorable to Health, The easterner, bred and born at sen level, has a very vague idea of that part of his country which is at a cloud ~ height, and he has scarcely any ooneep- . tion of the governing climate of such a = . pection.

Oné Was For Liberty and the Other Was For a» Life. “In passing by the criminal court | building the other day,”’ said Lather laflin Mills, ‘I recalled, among my ' memories somehow connected with it, hat of a remarkable leap for liberty. “About 15 years ago I prosecuted a young fellow for the crime of burglary. | He was convicted and sentenced to pris- ' on for a term of six years. After sen- | ence, as he was being conveyed by a | deputy sheriff from the courtroom to the jail, across the passage connecting the two buidings, which I have often regarded as a ‘Bridge of Sighs,’ the young burglar suddenly sprang over the low hand railing, which was then the only protection of the bridge, landed on his JI 45 feet below, and, recovering himself, made a bold dash for liberty "He started on a run north on Dearborn avenue, pursued by deputy sheriffs and policemen, and was finally recaptured in a barn not far from Lincoln park. Whert they brought him back, his face flushed, his eyes flashing, his shirt col- lar thrown open, he looked like a young hero of romance. A few days later he . was taken So state’s prism, where ke served hi hn over r the Clark street bridge there recurred to me the memory of an- other leap—onme for life. One evening | ‘about five years ago on approaching that f bridge 1 found it open and a crowd of & about 1,500 men and women in a state | of excitement. A policeman informed | me that a woman had _ fallen into the | river. ‘What's being done to save her? 1 demanded. = Before the officer had a | chance to reply a young fellow rushed | through the crowd, threw off his coat | ‘and vest, put his hands together and . ghot into the water.

Ths Emotion of Grief In Animals. Dutch was a brown retriever of ad- | ‘vanded years. - Curly was reputed 0 be | a Scotch terrier, but his appearance sug- | gested some ancertainty in his descent. Dutch was chained to her kennel, and Curly, who enjoyed his liberty, evinced | ‘his friendship by frequently , taking bones and other canine delicacies to his | less fortunate friend. One morning | Curly presented himself at the house, | | evincing unmistakable signs of grief by | | his demeanor and his whines. A visit to the kennel, wheré poor Dutch was | { found lying dead, showed the occasion | | of Cuzly's unhappiness. We buried | | Dutch decorously under a vine in the ' garden and supposed that Curly would | forget the incident, but we were toach- "ed to see him in the capacity of faithful’ ' mourner often revisit the spot where ! his old friend was laid, taking with i him, by way of offering, choice bones, . which he carefully buried by the grave. | This practice Curly continued for two | years, when we left the house. —Cor. | Photographing the Growth of Plants. | Photographing has lately been applied | | to record the movements of growing plants, ind it is not necessary to add | that some curious results have been ob- tained.
