A Queer Pair of Smiths.

The difficulty of meeting the dietetic
requirements of certain pets reminds me
of another pair of lizards that in turn in

me by the name Of TaIaquira Smith. An

the latter name, to commemorate the par
ticuar Smith who bestowed it on Tara
quira; but Smith is simple and practical;
and the Tarraquira Smiths was the name
of my two little Brazilians lizards. The
smaller one measured about eight inches
from the snout to the tip of his 'lender
tail; the larger one was ten or more
inches in length. They are, however,
less agreeable to handle than the previ-
Gus pets, their tails being armed with
very finely-pointed sharp scales in whorlg.
The lizards seem to know how to use this
long tail protectively, having acquired a
habit of retrogression, and, when held,
of backing out of the hand, as if With

are thus converted into weapons of de-

To-day's disappointment. yesterdays dream !;
Ever rssolviHg, still never we mend,
such is eur PROCESS, where is the end
Whirllne away like leaf on the wind,
Points Of attachment left daily behind;
Fixed to no principle, fast to no friend,
such our ndellty-wherc is the end !
Floating away like cloud ON hill,
Penduous, tremulous, migrating still
where 70 repose ourselves, whittier to tend
Such onr consistency, where Is the end
Crystal the pavement under the stream,
Firm the reality under the dream
We may not feel it, yet still we may mend;
How ehall we conquer not known till the end.
Bright leaves may scatter, the sport ofthe wind
But stands to winter the great tree behind;
Frost cannot wither it, storm cannot BEND,
Roots strongly clasping. the rock at the end.
Calm In the armament, ever the cloud
Clear shine the stars through the rift In thei
nhroud.
There our repOse shall be, thither we tend
Spite Of our wvvering-God Is our end.
