The Peacock and the Oyster-A Fable.

OSE day al oyster set out To cross
n neck of land To ave himself a long
swim around II, and as he %journeycd
along the dusty highway, content with
the weather. the climate and his sur.
roundings, he suddenly heard n harsh
voice crying out for him 10 halt. As he
rolled into the shade OF q pigweed. n
peacock advanced with lordly strut and

"How. now. sirrah? Where are you
going. and what Is your errand?"

"Weu, well. ! really pity you. Now,
then, If you want to see something
gandy. just gaze on me-
The bird strutted up and down. head
up and tail spread out, aud the oyster
was compelled to say that it was a sight
to do sore eyes good.
While you creep | walk, strut and
fly"
Yes"
While you whisper l sing"
yes -
"While you tumble around in the
mud and sand l reflect all the co!ors OF

II must admit it." sighed the oyster.
"And while a pig-weed shelters you
it takes a whole apple tree to give me
shade. You seq"
And the oyster saw. An eagle had
been looking for n breakfast. The
humble oyster. hidden away under the
weed. escaped his pieI cling glances, hut
the gorgeous peacock was instantly
seen and spotted. There was q whirr.
a scream and the eagle had assembled
with the vain-glorious bird fast in his
claws.
"Come to think it all over" said the
oyster, as he squinled his larboard eye
aloft. sit is about as well to be an
oyster under a pig-weed as a peacock
in the claws Of an eagle. l guess I'll

DURING the Presidents illness he has
been sustained largely by a diet Ct
koumiss. The preparation of it is little
understood in this country, although
the abundance of the very best milk
with US and the wholesomeness OF this
form Of the fermented article entitle it
to a more general attention and use.
koumiss is a very common drink among
the Tartars who draw their supply Of

from them. When properly ma ie it is
e~ffervescent, more so than champagne,
and requires to be kept in strong bottles
and handled with care. 1t is foamy,
thicker than unfermented milk, and a
psistable and most refreshing beverage.
1t is more easily digested than sweet
milk, and for this reason ls recommend

in high esteem in Russia, and it is the
custom with Russian invalids to W into

that the change will accomplish the

OF improvement, he will doubtless lose
courage and hope for himself, and with

that the unhealthy influences Of the

to have assumed some authority in his

and has dismissed three of the corps of
physicians. May be he has other
changes in reserve that will get him
clear over the breakers.
