GUS snakes were not so beautiful. None
admired our native viper, with its yel.
lowish scales. To adults its bite was
far schooner serious than to the young.
Passing to snakes in general, of which
there were many hundreds of distinct
species, the lecturer illustrated in great
detail the adaptation Of their organiza-
ton to its manifold work.
Very graphic was his description of
the manner in which some of the more
destructive snakes dart suddenly on
on their prey, twisting themselves round
its body, crushing it into shapeless
and writhing mass, and at last swallow
ing it whole. He pointed out some very
curious arrangements in the anatomical
mechanism and jaw-bones illustrative Of
the statement that the snake cannot
r-.re-ly be ~A;l 70 nrallnrH hia rrAy he
holds on to it rather, gradually working
it down its throat in a most leisurely
manner, but never letting it 60. He
would take sleep for six weeks before
giving up his task, and if the morsel
were really to big would sometimes die
in the effort to get it down. Of course,
the snake required very tuII developed
and effective apparatus of salivary glands
for this purpose. The poison bag of the
venomous snakes was nothing but
modification of the salivary glands of
the harmless species, the structure of
both kinds being in almost all respects
not only parallel throughout but almost
identical. AS another instance of the
close relationship, it was shown that the
sharp channel-needle which conveys the
poison of the cobra, and its congeners is
nothing but the development of the tooth
which these murderous reptiles possess
in common with innocuous snakes. The
fact that the salivary gland was the
poison laboratory of the deadly snakes
as well as the known properties of the
saliva of dogs or other living creatures
affected with rabies appeared to Profess
or Huxley to point out the direction in
which the solution of the difficult prob
lem of the cause of snake poisoning and
of a possible antidote against it. At
present there was no man living who
could heal the bite of the cobra, except
by cauterization in very fresh cases.

Years and years ago it used to be said
that girl might be willing to be kissed
when she voluntarily put boys hat on
her head. This cannot be true, for hun
dreds of pretty girls are now wearing
the little round Derby hats, and looking

A congregation, anxious to get rid of
their pastor, were considerably pcrplexed
how to do it without hurting his feelings.
After considerable discussion they con-
cluded to inform him they were obliged
to reduce his salary. A delegation was
appointed to wait on him and notify him
of the fact. Brethren" was the reply,
81 have been with you in prosperity and
l will never desert you in adversitY."
A man who had never seen the inside
of law court until he was recently in
troduced as witness in case pending
in one of the Scotch courts, on being
sworn, took position with his back to
the jury, and began telling his story to
the Judge. The judge, in bland and
courteous manner, said, address your
self to the jury, sir" The man made a
short pause, but, not comprehending
what was said to him, forthwith contin-
ued his narrative. The judge was then
more explicit, and said to him, '.Speak
to the jury, 'sir-the men sitting behind
you on the benches. The witness at
once turned round, and, making an awk-
ward bow, said, with great gravity of
manner, "Good morning, gentlemen -
1t was Sunday afternoon, and young
Mr.. Stayhght had stopped until they
were forced to ask him to stop and take
supper. The best china and the extra
pieces of silver graced the table, while
one of the incest napkins was placed by
young Mr.. Staylight's plate. for the fam

possible upon his susceptible mind. His
young lady was conducting herself with
very great credit, and the young man
was more than ever in love with her.
when the mother said, passing the cake
for the second time Wont you have
another piece, Mr.. Staylight? p "No.
thank you" said the young man, in his
politest tone. "not any more" "Oh. do
have just one more" urged the mother.
smiling sweetly; 'you hav'n't eaten
hardly anything" The younger brother,
who sat opposite. and who, had been in
structed, much to his disgust, not to ask
twice for that cake. saw his opportunity
and snortcd out with great malevolence-
"Huh | should think he had ! He's

A HAPPY HOME.
BY GEORGE NJ. BUNGAY.

There is no place, anear or far,
Tho great its fame and rich its splendor;
AS home, where light falls from the star
Oflove on memories sweet and tender.
How true and sweet welcome home
From happy neighbors and relationsI
How soft the sky that lights the dome
At night with cloudless consultations!
For home is nearer to the skies,
OF ofevening calm and golden morning,
Than gorgeous palaces that rise
In foreign lands, the hills adorning.
roster tint has come to Mary;
And in the cared-for cage there swings,
With songs exultant, the canary.
Rover, the watchdog. wags his tail,
And leaps and barks, for his kind master
Is home again. he will not fail
To sound alarms when comes disaster.
The rum iend never enters there
To cloud these happy children's faces;
The eldest daughter. bright and fair,
Lights the small room, as stars their spaces
With folded arms the father stands.
Resting moment from his labors,
Proud of his little household band,
A local king among his neighbors.

NO BLESSING In THAT HOUSE

No blessing in that house
Where rum has entered in;
Nothing but care and want,
Nothing but woe and sin;
Nothing but hunger and rags,
Nothing but sighs and tears,
And days of grief and pain
Through all the long long years.
No blessing in that house
Where rum sits on the throne;
Nothing but aching, breaking hearts,
That call on God alone;
Fond mothers with faces pale,
Who mourn, and hope, and pray;
Fond sisters and wives who sit and weep
Their very lives away.
No blessings IN that house
Nothing but faded hopes,
And ghosts of joys that paled and died
On all life's sunny slopes;
Sad memories or graves,
That were too early made,
And fearful scenes of death and woe,
That neer in time shall fade.
No blessing in that house,
Great God bend down thine ear;
Oh, hearken to thy children's cry,
And mark each falling tear.
Assert thy righteous power,
Father of Mercies, come
And Danish from the homes of earth
The dreadful curse of rumi

BABY,s WALKING MATCH.
BY GEORGE cooPET

Hurrahi Babys on the track
Got the word to "GoI"
Strength Of limb he doesn't lack,
Toddling to and fro.
Mother is the judge so true;
There's no doubt he'll win.
See the pretty belt of blue
On his waist to pin.
Many strides he has to take,
In the shade and sun;
Many miles he has to make
Ere the match be won.
Bravo! Up and down he goes,
Holding fast to chars;
Rosy fingers, rosy toes,
Pretty little airs.
This is but the first wee match,
Just his speed to try;
A much better gate he'll catch,
Walking by and by.
Here he comes. the proud. wee chap.
Beating all the others.
Now he takes a final lap:
But that lap is his mothers!
