uneasy and anxious, as if there might

between his beer and himself. Pres

with smiles, eXclaiming:

as the anxiety disappeared from his coun-
tenance; =" fill up der glasses
Not many minutes elapsed before in
rushed the little girl again with the an
nouncement:
"On, father, we've got t,Oo little boys

The Dutchman looked great deal
astonished and not at all gratified at this
little family redundancy, but rising
to the magnitude of the occasion, ne
said:
well, den, dat ish also goot. Fill up
der glasses"
In few minutes again appeared the
radiant messenger, with the astonishing
proclamatio

The Poisoned Tongue.

1t is the custom in Africa for hunters,
when they have killed poisonous
snake, to cut off its head, and carefully
bury it deep in the ground. A naked
foot stepping on one of these fangs
would be fatally wounded. The poison
wonld spread in a very short time
through the whole system. This ven
on lasts long time, and is as deadly
after the snake is dead as before. The
Red Indians used to dip the points of
their arrows in this poison, SO, if they
made the least wound, their victim
would be sure to die.
The snakes poison is in its teeth +;
but there is something quite as danger
Gus, and much more common in COM
munities, which has its poison on its
tongue. Indeed, your chances of es-
cape from serpant are greater. The
