WHERE THEY LEARN IT." don't see
where my ch ldren learn such things is
one of the most common phrases in II
mothers vocabulary. A little incident
which we happened to witness may per-
hups help to solve the enigma. We smiled
little ut the time, hut we have thought
great deal Of it since, and we trust not
without profit.
Bob" screamed out bright-eyed lit,
Tic girl, somewhat under six years ofage,
TO youngster who was seated on the
curhstone making hasty-pudding of the
mud in the gutter: Bob, you Sood-for-
nothing little scamp, you come right into
the touse this minute, or I'll beat you till
the skin comes off. ~
"Why, Angelina, Angelina, dear, what
do you mean? Where do you learn such
taIk?' exclaimed her m ther, in won
derng tone, rs she stood on the steps cur
tesying to n friend.
Angelina looked up innocently, and an

The tree-frog cannot be called an insect,
IL reptile, or one of the winged host; he
has four legs, the two foremost short. with
claws as sharp as those of IL squirrel; the
hind.lcgs five inches long, and folding by
three Joints. His body is about rs bic as
the first joint of mans thumb. Under
his throat is wnd-bag. which assists him
in singing Isaac all night When it rains,
and it is very dark he sings the loudest
His voice is not rs pleasing us that of the
nightingale; hut this would he venial
impcrfclon, if he would but keep silence
on Saturday night, and not forever prefer
Isaac to Abraham and Jacob. He has
mo- e elasticity in his legs than any other
creature yet known. Bv this means he
will leap five yards up tree, fastening
himself to it by his fure-Iegs, and in u mo-
ment will hop or spring us far from one
tree to another 1t is from the singing of
the rec-frog that the Americans have ac-
quired the name of Little Isaac, Indeed,
like certain part of them, the creature
appears very dcvout, noisy, arbitrary, and
phlegmalc, and associates with none but
What agree with him in his ways.

He's coming to preach to ron next Sun
day night; he is one of yourselves; treat
him fairly, lads, and hear what he has got
to tell you. 1t is true that he has got no
call from the conference, but that he has
had one from heaven think none of you
will deny.
To Will this news was so wonderful he
could think OF nothing else, and WAS in his
weakness as impatient as Il child for Sum
day to come. Rex, too, was not devoid
of curiosity Billy Dawson, II, u boxer,
wrestler, aud sporting man, had been, he
knew, u kind of authority on such sub
iects, even with men far above him in sta.
