FOR THE YOUNG FOLKS.


he Revenge OF the Little Hippopotamu
fat young hippopotamus
Sat grimly by the Nile,
Contriving dire vengeance
On lady crocodile,
Who, that morning, for her breakfast
Ate up his brothers twain;
So he pondered long and deeply
How to pay her back again.
All at once an idea struck him
And he broke into a smile.
have itV' cried he, joyfully;
" I'll fix that crocOdilclh
Then he trotted through the ruShes
Until he reached dry land,
when he crcpt along quite silently
To a mound in the hot sand,
Where the crocodile had buried
Her eggs, because she knew
The torrid sun would hatch them
within month or two.
Now, the savage mother-reptile
Wasnowhere TO be seen,
For she was calmly umbering
Among the rushes green.
The little hippopotamus
Moved cautiously and slow,
Until he saw the heap Of eggs
Then laughed he long aud low.
Then boldly he marched forward,
And stamped upon that nest,
And jumped and kicked aud pranced about,
As II he were possessed,
Till all the eggs were scattered
And broken every one,
While all the little crocodiles
Forth from the shells did run.
The ancient mother-crocodile
Hearing her young ones wall
Come rushing from her muddy couch
Waving her frightful tail.
The little hippopotamus
Was having then huge fun,
Stepping upon the babies,
To smash them one by enc;
80 he failed to see the mother,
Nor dreamed Of his mishap,
Iill-whack. against his side 80 fat
There came an awful slap.
IL lifted him from of his feet,
And hurled him up on high,
And away he went careering
Like rocket i'm the sky.
How far he few know not
But Z is said that he was thrown
On the pyramid of Cheops,
Straddling the topmost stone.
Being too fat to Chamber down,
He may be there this day,
Unless some one In n balloon
Has carried him away.
But OF this you may be certain,
That IL he is not found
In the air or I'm the water
He's somewhere on the ground
Park Benidnfn, ~. Nicholas.

A Queer Little Beast.-Tbe Nor.

Queer Little Beast.-The Nor
wegian lemming is an animal about the
size OF mouse. 1t lives under stones
in the summer-under snow i'm the
winter. 1t Kisses and bites About
once in ten years they emigrate i'm the
autumn, in large armies. They march
in straight line. They cross lakes and
rivers. They go through haystacks
rather than 60 around. Nothing stops
them, not fire, cascades, nor swamps. If
a man stands in the way they will lump
at him as high as his knee. If struck
they will turn around and bite and
bark like n dog. Foxes, lynxes, owls,
hawks, and weasels will follow them and
destroy large numbers of them, but il
does not check them. They continue
their course until they reach the sea.
into which they plunge, as persistent and
progressive as ever, until the waves
drown them and exterminate them.

Sure, Mr.. Dodgers, it's meself that
knows the culprit It's Willie. He's
gone to the cricket field"
Mr.. Bodgers's eyes lighted up. | NAV
tell you that he was very determined
man; and, unlike Willie's parents. had
firm belief in corporal punishment
What does he do therefore, but march
straight to the cricket-feld, heavy
cane in his hand.
Catching sighto of him, Willie instantly
took 10 his heels, for it did not require
two glances 10 assure him that his
fathers hrst-hOOr lodger meant mis-
chief.
Stop him. Stop the young rufIian."
! yelled that gentleman, giving chase and
brandishing the cane ominously. Stop
him, sayw
No one attempted TO do so, however,
and at first il looked as if our mis-
chievous little hero would make his es-
cape; but fate ordered it differently.
Though past the middle age, Mr..
Dodgers was remarkably nimble, and
what with his long legs and arms,
seemed to fly over the ground like a
huge grasshoppcr.
The consequence was that he raincd
upon Willie fast, and in few seconds
was only dozen yards or 80 i'm the
rear.
Willie's heart sank within him. He
felt that unless he did something dcspcr-
ate hewas in for it, Sudden Y, there
fore, swerving tn the right, he made
direct for thick cluster of tall water
reeds, and dived in among them, hoping
thus to elude pursuit.
Alas he reckoncd without his host.
The irate lodger was not to be done i'm
this way. Dashingafter him, he caused
Willie to retreat further back, and, i'm
the excitement of the moment, To tum-
bic headlong into the muddy brook.
Help! helpW cried he, chokingly,
struggling frantically in the midst of the
thick, liquid mass. Help! helpp
MIR. Bodgers's anger was in moment
appeased, and he was now as anxious To
save the boy from drowning rs a few
seconds before he had been to chastse
him.
STOPPING down, therefore, he caught
him by the collar and dragged him
forth
A pretty object he looked! He was
actually covered from head to heel with
the Shiny mud. In short, his best clothes
were completely spoiled, while, by dint
OF shaking and brushing, Mr.. Bodgers's
were made TO look something like them
selves again, though they never were as
bright.
So, after all, Willie was the main
sufferer, especially as his parents did not
buy him another new suit till fully six
months afterward, but made him do
penance in the spoiled ones.
