Charles Montague, in 'Tales of a Nomad," says that hyenas often follow lions, and Unish a car. as tho moment lions have left it. Some times, however, the hyenas aro too eager, and steal bits of meat whilo the lions arc still at their meal. I ha\'o been told that the lion rids himself of tho nu sance in the follow ing way: He throws a piece of meat aside. When the lion is looking tho other way tho hyena dodges in and rushes off with the meat. Presently the lion throws another piece of meat, this time a little nearer. Tho hyena takes that also. At last tlia lion throws a piece very near indeed. The hyena, having become reckless, makes a dash at this also, hut tho linn wheels round and lays him low with a pat of his paw aud a growl of annoyance. I remember at the TTsutu on one occasion hearing at night the cries of a hyena in pain, mingled with an oc casional short growl from a lion. This went on for about twenty minutes. Tho next morning we found tho ca.- cass of a hyena bitten across tho neck, and marked by tho claws of lions. They had evidently eaught it and played with it somo time lieforo killing It. 1 suppose tills was done in revenue for the annoyance they had sustained from the hyenas. THROW IT AWAY.

BACK FROM~TIIE TOMB BY GUY DE MAUPASSANT. ■ " .5k H E guests filed (l slowly into the hotel's great dining SjSj, { ; * V liftll and took their places, the waiters Y*\" began to serve them leisurely, to give ~ *1 the tardy ones time "jffl*rt° arrive and to Bave themselves the /N* bother of bringing back tho courses; and the old bathers, the yearly habitues, with whom the season was far advanced, kept a close watch on the door each time it opened, hoping for tho corning of new faces. New faces! tho single distraction of all pleasure resorts. We go to dinner chiefly to canvass the daily arrivals, to wonder who they are, what they do and what thoy think. A restless de sire seems to have taken possession of us, a longing for pleasant adventures, for friendly acquaintances, perhaps for possible lovers. In this elbow-to elbow life our unknown neighbors bo come of paramount importance. Curi osity is piqued, sympathy on tho alert, aud the social instiuct doubly active. That evening, then, as on every evening, wo waited the appearance of unfamiliar faces. There came only two, but very peculiar ones, those of man and wo man—father and daughter. They seemed to have stepped from tho pages of somo weird legend ; and yet there was an attraction about them, albeit an uupleusant one, that made mo set them down at once as tho victims of somo fatality. Tho father was tall, spare, a little bent, wiih hair blanched white, too white for his still young countenance, and in his manner and about his per son tho sedate austerity of carriage that bespeaks tho puritan. Tho daugh ter was, possibly, some twenty-four or twenty-fivo years of nge. She was very slight, emaciated, her exceedingly palo countenance bearing a languid, spiritless exprossion; one of those peo ples whom we sometimes encounter, ap parently too woak for the cares and tasks of life, too feeble to niovo or do things that wo must do every day. Nevertheless tho girl was pretty, with the ethereal beauty of an apparition. It was she, undoubtedly, who camo for tho benefit of tho waters. They chanced to bo placed at tabic Immediately opposite to me; and ] was not long in noticing that the father, too, had a strange affection— something wrong about tho nerves, i* seemed. Whenever ho was going to roach for auything his liaml, with u jerky twitch, described u sort of zig zag before it was able to grasp what he was after. Soon the motion disturbed me so much I kept my head turned in order not to see it. But not before 3 had also observed that tho young girl kept her glove on her left hand while she ate. Dinner ended, I went out ns usual for a turn in the grounds belonging to the establishment. A Bort of park, 1 might say, stretching clear to the lit tle station of Auvorgno, Chatel- Gnyou, nestling in a gorge at the fool of the high mountain, from which Mowed the sparkling, bubbling springs, hot from the furnace of an ancient volcano. Beyond us there, the domes, email extinct craters—of which Chatel- Gnvon is the starting point—raised their serrated heads above the long chain ; whi'e beyond the domes came two distinct regions, one ot them uoe dle-lilto peaks, the other of bold, pre cipitous mountains. ft was very warm that evening nnd I contented myself with pacing to and fro under tho rustling trees, gazing at the mountains and listening to tho strains of tho band, pouring from the Casino, situated on a knoll that over looked the grounds. Presently, I perceived tho fathei and daughter coming toward mo with slow steps. I bowed to them in that pleasant continental fashion with which one always salutes his liotci companions. Tho gentleman haltod at once. "Pardon, me, sir," said he, "bu. may I ask if you can direct us to r short walk, easy and pretty if possi ble 1" "Certainly," I answered, and offered to lead them myself to tho val ley throngb which the swift rivCi flows—a deep, narrow cleft betweoi two great declivities, rocky am Wooded. Tlioy accepted, and as wo walked we naturally discussed the virtue of fclio minoral waters. Tho,\% had/ I surmised, come tliero on liis daugh ter's account. "She has a strange malady," said he, "tho scat of which har physicians sannot determine. She suffers from the moat inexplicable nervous symp toms. Sometimes they declare her ill af a heart disease, sometimes of a liver complaint, again of a spinal trouble. At present they at tribute it to the stomach —that great motor and regulator of tho body—this protean disease of a thousand forms, a thousand modes of attack. It is why we are here. I, myself, think it her nerves. In any case, it is very sad." This reminded me of his own jerk ing head. "It maybe hereditary," says I; "your own nerves are a little disturbed, are tlicy not?" "Mine?" ho answered, tranquilly. "Not at all; I have always possessed the calmest nerves." Then, suddenly, as if bethinking himself: "For this," touching his hand, "is uot nerves, but the result of a shock, a terrible shock that I suffered once. Fancy it, pir ; this child of mine has been buried alive!" I could find nothing to say; I was dumb with surprise. "Yes," he continued, "buried alive ; but hear the story; it i 3 not long. For some time past Juliette had seemed affected with a disordered action of the heart. Wo were finally certain that the trouble was organic, and feared the worst. One day it came ; she was brought in lifeless —dead. She had fallen dead while walking in the gar den. Physicians e.iino in haste, but nothing could be done. She was gone. For two days and two nights I watched beside her myself, and with my own hands placed her in lier coflin, which I followed to the cemetery and saw placed in the family vault. This was in the country, in the province of Lorraine. "It had been my wish, too, that sho should be buried in her jewels, brace lets, necklace and rings, all presents chat I had given her, and in her first ball dress. You can imagine, sir, the state of my heart in returning home. She was all that I had left; my wife lad been dead l'or many years. I re turned, in truth, half mad, shut my olf ulone in my room and fell into my jhair dazed, unable to move, merely i miserable, breathing wreck. "Soon my old valet, Prosper, who aad helped mo placo Juliette in her joiiiu and lay her away for her last leep, came in noiselessly to see if he jould not induce mo to eat. I shook ny head, answered nothing. Ho per sisted. " 'Monsieur is wrong ; this will malic aim ill. Will monsieur allow mo, ihen, to put him to bed:" "•No, no,' I answered. 'Lot me alone.' "He yielded and withdrew. "How many hours passed I do not know. What a night! What a night! It was very cold; my fire of logs had ong since burned out in tho groat fireplace; and tho wind, a wintry blast, charged with an icy frost, howled and screamed about the liouso and strained at my windows with a 3uriously sinister sound. "Long hours, 1 say, rolled by. I ?at still where I had fallen, prostrated, overwhelmed; my eyes wide open, out my body strengthless, dead; my ?oul drowned in despair. Suddenly cho great bell gave a loud peal. "I gave such a leap that my chair tracked uuder me. The slow, soloinn sound rang through tho empty house. [ looked at the clock. "It was two in tho morning. Who 'ould bo coming at such an hour? "Twice again tho bell pulled sharp ly. The servants would never answer, perhaps never hear it. I took up a 3andle and made my way to the door. [ was about to demand : "'Who is there!'but, ashamed of sho weakness, nerved myself and drew oack tho bolts. My heart throbbed, ny pulse beat, I threw back the panel Orusquely, and there, in the darkness, hivr a shape like a phantom, dressed In white. "I recoiled, speechless with anguish, stammering: " 'Who—who arc vou?' "A voice answered: " 'lt is I, father.' "It was my child, Juliette. "Truly, I thought myself mad. I diuduered, shriultiug backward before ;he spectre as it advanced, gesticulat ing with my baud to ward off the ap parition. It is that gesture which las never left me. "Again tho phantom spoke: "'Father, father! Sec, I am not lead. Some one came to rob mo of ny jowels—thoy cut off my finger— .he—the flowing blood revived me.' "And I saw then that she was cov sred with blood. I fell to my knees pauting, sobbing, laughing, all in 0110. Vs soon as I regained my senses, but Jtill so bewildered I scarcely compre hended tho happiness that had corno ;o me, I took her in my arms, carried icr to my room aud rang frantically ior Prosper to rekindlo the lire, bring i warm drink for her and go for tho loctor. "He came running, entered, gazed t moment at my daughter in tho jhair, gave a gasp of fright aud lior •or and fell back—dead. "It was ho who had opened the I vault, who hul wounded and robbed •ny child and then abandoned her; "or he could not effuco all trace of his leed; and he had not even taken the trouble to return the coffin to its niche; sure, besides, of not being inspected by me, who trusted him so fully. We are truly very unfortunate people, monsieur." Ho was silent. Meanwhile the night aad comofiii, enveloping in the gloom die still and solitary little valley; a sort of mysterious uroad seemed to fn.ll upon mo in the presenoe of these strango boinga—this corpse came to life and this father with his painful gestures. •'Let us return," said I; "tho night has grown chill." And, still in silence, wo traced our steps back to the hotel, and I shortly afterwards returned to tho city. I lost all further knowledge of tho two peculiar visitors to my favorito sum mer resort.

A fcrlflo sometimes leads to the de tection of a fault or crime. A theatri cal musician owned an ebony lluto with silver keys; he valued it highly, but as one of the upper notes was de fective, he seldom ues it. A young man lodged with the musician, and between the two a close friendship existed. One night the ebony tluto disappeared, having no doubt been stolen. Suspicion fell on several persons, but nothing could be proved against any of them. Not long afterward the lodger went to live In a town a few miles olf, hut as the friendship between the men still ex isted thev occasionally visited each other. Nearly a year aftcrwa d the musician paid his friend a visit, and was pleased to And him In pos session of a beautiful bullfinch, which could distinctly whistle threo tunes. The performance was per fect with this exception, that when ever he came to a certain high noto he invariably skipped it and went on to the next A little reflection con vinced the musician that the note in which the bullttnch was imperfect was the deficient one on h s lost tlute.

It is conceded that the Royal Baking Powder is the purest and strongest of all the baking powders. The purest baking powder makes thl finest, sweet est, most delicious food.

Why should not every housekeeper avail herself of the baking powder which will give her the best food with the least trouble ? Avoid all baking powders sold with a gift or prize, or at a lower price than the Royal, as they invariably contain alum, lime or sul phuric acid, and render the food unwholesome.
