Curious Pets.

There lives in Sandwich, Mass, on
bae borders Of one Of the most charming
lakes in America, Mrs. Il. II. Burgess,
who is at present attracting no little no.
toriety through the relation she sus-
tains to the inhabitants Of this lake. 1t
has been her custom once or twice a
day for quito period to feed the fish
in this lake, and o few days ago we
CHANGED to be favored with an invita-
ZION to witness this novel feast Of the
iinny tribe.
She first splashes the water with her
hand, when in n moment there may be
seen approaching from every direction
hundreds Of large sinners, then cells
varying in size from one to three feet
in length, may be seen cautiously APP
preaching. Next turtles appear on the
surface, ten, twenty and thirty feet
away, their necks stretched apparently
to see whether it is friend or foe who is
disturbing the waters. In less than
three minutes these various species had
collected directly before her, and
rs she commences to feed the
water is fairly alive with them.
They take bread directly from
her hands, aud turtles would al
low her to take them entirely out of the
water, and while she held them. in one
hand they would eat with the greatest
voracity from the other. But the cells
amused rs the most. There was one
she called Quinn, measuring about three
feet in length, that repeatedly came to
the surface, and would glide 1asck and
forth through her hands and Several
times she lifted him partially out Of the
water, but he was careful to keep his
head under. He seemed to feel that
she would take no undue liberties with
him SO long as his head was in its
natural clement, bat the moment he
saw daylight he would dart back as
only an Gel could.
Another small one, about foot in
length, seemed to be particularly fond
OF her caresaes and could be handled
about rs she pleased, it being under
stood that sho was to remain under
vator though.
Taken altogether it was one of the
most novel entertainments VIC have ever
Witnessed, and visitors to this locality
should not fail to ask the favor granted
to tho writer.
The lady is evidently much attached
TO her pets, and takes pride, as well she
may. IN chewing thcm.-Marlboro

The Cllick-a.dee and the Eagle "A Fable.
Once upon time Chick dee and
an Eagle had nests in the same forest.
The forest was plenty large enough for
both, and peace and harmony might
have prevailed but for the jealousy Of
the Chick.a doe. Having been created
by nature Jor a small bird and having
digestive organs for only bugs and
worms, it made him wroth to behold
the Eagle having ouch spread of wings
md such appetite for large game.
One day, after the Chick-a-dee had
put in ten hours hard work for grubs,
he behold tho majestic Eagle pounce
down and secure in moment fish
large enough to last him three days.
This capped the climax, and the Chick
a.dee few higher up in the tree to con-
suit the Buzzard as to what could be
done.
"Td lie about him." was the advice
of tho Buzzard, after thinking it over.
The Chicl,-a-dee therefore flew
through the forest spreading lies and
SANDERS regarding the Eagle, but the
results were not satisfactory. No one
seemed to believe them, and many ad-
vised The Chick-a-dee to continue his
clubbing and let other Birds do as
pleased them best. In this emergency
the tiny Bird again applied to the Buzz
zard for advice. The unclean Bird
picked his teeth over the subject and
replied:
"You must go to the Eagle and tell
him what you think of him."
Early the next morning the Chick-a-
dee set out on his mission. Meeting
the Eagle in mid-air he began trade
of abuse, but the Eagle did not seem to
hear. Enraged and exasperated, the
Chick-a-dee used still stronger Ian
guage, but the result was the same.
"Sayl say! I'm abusing your he
finally called out, "Tve slandered you,
lied about you, and now 1 insult You,
and you dare not resent it,"
"Little atom" replied the Eagle, as
he slowed up little, "if struck by an
Eagle I should strike back. When q
bird of your size bothers TdeSA cannot
even afford time to stop and eat him."

Lost Shells.
Thoughts suggested by the little song, ''Gather

The shells picked up from the sea-shore
Have dropped from my girlish hand.
And the ID of the great. deep waters
Now means long the surf beaten strand.
am weary now and my spirit
Is tired of its restless clay,
And it seems The brightness of living
Is gone from my life away.
Once as watched the moon-b beams
Fall DER the distant hill,
ldreamed my life was poem
That would rhyme at my own sweet will
dreamed that wonderful music
Icould chime with my cir ISL hand,
And that care, and want, and sorrow
We're as drifting as the sand.
My heart was as pure in its young love
AS the shells picked near the sea,
While the song of the great great ocean
Came floating up to me.
Yeas have passed, and the moonbeams
Are ia ling as brightly again,
But softly in broken shadows
I hey are filling my heart with pain,
More sadly the sweet past echoes
Down through the scattered years,
And read life's wonderful poem
Through Finding mist of tears.
The shells haven't lost their whiteness,
But the sound OF the far off sea
Falls on my heart like the music
Of life's sad, sweet mystery.
am weary now, and my fair dove
saw through the sunshine DEPART.
Comes back to me torn and bleeding,
And folds Its white wings round my heart.

A BAcKwooDs ELopEMENT.

There amt nothing here but the woods,
n river, N few shiftless neighbors, but
if you ken stand 1t, we should like to have
you stay" remarked Mrs. Savage, when
Marianne and proposed spending month
or so at her hospitable mansion.
A winters trip into the pine woods re-
gion had inspired US with desire to visit
it when it was green, instead of white, and
as Marianne was somewhat OF an invalid
this spring, and believes IN zine breezes,
we started on the last day of April, for
the same obscure spot.
We left the east winds and sea fogs be-
hind us; we fund clear skies, fresh breez-
es, arbutus blossoms. and May parties,
which ale still in vogue in this part of the
country. Not the folnrn, paper-wreathed,
bare-headed, shivering affairs which are
plentiful in the suburbs of the larger New
England cities. on the first of the fiowery
month, but merry tramps after arbutus
flowers, the parties composed of young
men and maidens, as we'll as children.
Dinner is usually spread in some vacant
logging camp, or, if it be warm enough,
under the trees outside, while last years
leaves fall into the drinking cups, and a
great deal of fun and jolIity prevails.
We encountered many of these gypsy
parties on our way from Bangor upward,
and each one seemed merrier than the
last.
Dusk was creeping like mist over the
little hamlet, cut like an oval from the
midst Of the forest, when we reached there
after our long days ride. 1t was three
miles from the scene of our winters visit,
and more picturesque location. The riv-

calling traglcally from every direction,
and as we alighted at Mrs. oavage's door.
we could smell the odorous breath OF kline,
and hear the pleasant sound OF the dripz
