The two lions walked away slowly, looking over their shoulders at us; but the lioness crouched and would not let us pass her. My broth er shot ht her. but fired too high, and wounded her in the wither* making her spin round like a top in a cloud of dust So that I could see nothing to fire at My brother and I were sixty yards apart and the lioness six ty yards from both of u* tbe three forming a triangle.

Designed to Prevent Water Pipes Prom lluruilng In Winter. * A gentleman living in Peckham, England, has Invented and patented an ingenious method of preventing water pipes from bursting during frosty weather, says Invention. It consists in a length of elastic substance covered by thin (sheet or tinned) lead, the combination forming a thin rod more pliable than an ordinary cane. The rod, when Inserted inside the piping, becomes compressed by the expansion caused by: the freezing of the water, thus relieving the piping tof’the strain which would otherwise burst it The elastio substance is prepared cork the great durability and elasticity of which are too well known to need any comment The inventor has performed a series of experiments by artificial freezing which, he statea proves beyond doubt that this method will be an effectual preventive during any frost even when the lightest piping is used. The rod can be easily inserted inside piping and will pass easy bends. I Tli* Praia or Motion. Aunty—So you took your first dancing lesson to-day P Did you find H dlAeultP Wee Nephew—No'in.
