'Echo was said to he nvmph, who gave
offence to Juno, the wife of Jupiter. Juno
punished her by looming her to lose the con-
troll OF her tongue. She made her unable to
speak before some one else had spoken, and
unable to be silent after anybody else had
spoken. But the poor nymph'> troubles did
not end here for having become cnamorc,l

her, she pined away through grief,until there
was nothing left of her nymphship bat her

We left our friend NeIdic sound asleep in
one of the snug and tidy chamber of the Pro-
ti.c House. lie was very tired when lie went
to sleep: so YOU must not blame him because
he slept >ound.y and sweetly until half past
six the next morning. Not that hall-past six
is very late hour: but, YOU know, Neddic
was sleeping almcs: under the nose of the old
man of the mountain. You may be sure,
therefore. that he was very tired, or he would
have been up and cut to look at the old gen
,lcn,an, early enough to see him make his best
tow to the rising sun.
