THE BLESS¢D BABIES.

 

How the Warlings are Cared for i:
Other Lands,

 

The Indian buby is wrapped to
a birchbark board, and hung up
in @ tree or carried on his moth
ers back. He has no playthings ;
and if he cries, no one seems te
wind it much.

In South America some of the
cradles are made of palm leaves.
A single leaf turned up at the
edge holds the baby. This cra
dle 1s often hang up in a tree, and
-he wind rocks the baby to sleep.

In Afrisa the mother carries
the baby in a leather pouch slung
on her back. When she gets
tired of this way, she makes a
hole in the sand, under some
bush or shrub, and tucks the
baby into it.

An imo baby is tucked up
in his motHer’s hood. It is a
warm plece and trevelers say
their chubby little faces look
very good-natured and happy.
When the child comes out of the
hood, he is stuffed into a fawn-
skin bag; and a string draws the
garment together like a pudding.

New Year’s day is its birthday.
The winter cradle is shaped like
an hour-glass, open above and
below. The waist holds the
child in, aud the hands are left
free to play with odd-looking
rattles. If the baby is a boy, the
top of his head is shaved when
he is four weeks old, and after
that is shaved once a week.

In India, the baby is rocked in
&@ swing. The mother takes a
long cloth and ties the two ends
together over a small rafter in
the low. roof ot the house, and
puts the baby into the fold of the
cloth. When they go out to

Saved by tne Kick of a Horse.

The residence of Mr. M. L. Har-
ris, west of the city, was saved from
destruction by fire yesterday. in
® peculiar way. Mrs. Harris was
at work in the house. Mr. Har-
ris was in the barn and his son
was in a field ploughizg. No one
else was on the premises. John
Harris, the young man who was
ploughing, was kicked on the leg
by the horse. He went to the
house to get some liniment to ap-
ply to the wound, and as he ap-
proached, he saw that the roof of
the house was on fire and blazing
briskly. He and his father quick
ly procured a ladder and suc
ceeded in extinguishing the fire.
The kick of a horse undoubtedly
saved that house from burning.

A MODEST MILLIONAIRE.
John OD. Rockefelier Takes Life Free
and Easy.

-I never saw a man take life less
seriously than John D. Rockefeller.
He bas an easy way of saying and
doing things that appeals to the
esthetic nature. That $1,000,000
suit brought by Lon Merritt is not
costing him a wink of sleep. Noth-
ing worries him, not all his millions.
At times I have known John to seem
dull. I have known people to take
him for a soft, slow, stupid fellow
instead of the hard, gliding, firm,
rocky fellow that he is. He once
had an employe, a nervous, irritable
young man, full of his own impor-
tance, but, withal, a capable clerk.
He occupied an office in which there
was one of those pulling and lifting
machines, and regularly every
morning, about nine, when he was
immersed in figures or correspond:
ence, a small, black-mustached man,
quiet and diffident in manner, en-
tered, said ‘‘good morning,” walked
on tiptoe to the corner and exer-
cised for a quarter of an hour. It
became a bore to the clerk, who at
last, unable to stand it longer, re-
marked, with considerable heat and
fireworks, to the tnoffensive but
annoying stranger: ‘‘How do you
expect me to do my work properly
while you are fooling with that ma-
chine? [I'm getting tired of it.
Why don't you put it where it won't
worry @ person to death?” The
stranger replied with ablush: ‘I
am very sorry if it annoys you. I
will have it removed at once.” A
porter took it away within an hour.
A few days later the clerk was sent
for by Mr. Flagier, whom he found
in earnest conversation with the
small, black-mustached man. The
latter smiled at seeing him, gave
Flagler some instructions and left
the room. ‘‘Will you tell me who
that gentleman is?” the young man
asked, a light beginning to break
upon him. ‘‘That was Mr. Rock-
efeller,” was the reply. With a
gasp for breath, the clerk staggered
back to his office to think. It was
his first acquaintance with the
Standard Oil magnate. —N. Y.
