"A remarkable case Of snake charm

intently at each other, and neither NOV.

by her mother, when Belle, trembling
from head to foot, began to violently cry.
She explained that she had intended
killing the snake, but it caught her
eye" Try as she would--and horror
stricken as she was she tried hard-she
could not withdraw her eyes from the
snake, and she feels that if she had not
been taken from the spot by her mother
she could not much longer have resisted
an influence which seemed to urge her to
advance to where the snake lay on the
ground.

there are lawyers and doctors and dentists

an indispensable institution-next to the
parents he is the most important person
connected with the family. He ranks the
preacher and the teacher and the lawyer,
and in most cases holds his position dur

professions, and offers wider fields and
fresher ones than any other. BUT it has
its bad side, too-its responsibility, its
night work and its daily contact with
pain and grief.

According to the Alabama Enquirer,

According to the Alabama Enquirer,
a country editor is one who reads news
papers, writes on any subject, sticks
type, folds papers and makes up mail,
runs errands, saws wood, works in the
garden, is blamed for q thousand other
things be never thought of, works hard
all day, is subject to spring fever, helps
people into Office who forget all about it
afterward, and frequently gets cheated
out of his earning. He pufs up and does
more to build up town than anybody
else; the. miser and fogy are benefited,
yet they do not pay for his paper, but
they will borrow it and read it, and cuss
the fool of an editor.
Most of the estimates of the United
States wheat crop of this year are for
more than 500,00O,O00 bushels. The
greatest crop on record was that Of 1884,
514,000,000 bushels. The last govern
meut crop report shows that the average
condition of the crop is batter than it
was at this period of 1884.

that an ancient volcano 100 OF $50 miles

The Japanese have many strange Gus,
toms. One of these is the birthday
fish," AS we ne go out in the city we
see above many houses swinging fish
made of cloth. Some of these are very
large, some small, according to the tastes
aud means of the family.
I have just been looking at some.
The form of fish is so perfect one not
otherwise informed might think It was 8
real fish. The bright spots, the fns. tail,
the golden. colored belly, the open mouth
all, eeen in the distance, look like q
fish floating in the air.
BY means of cord and two or three
easy bending sticks inserted in the throat
it is suspended from pole set up upon
the roof of the house. The meaning is
that since last May child hasbeen born
in that house. In the East the birth
| of a child in the house is q matter
Of much joy, especially if it be son.
Why the fish is selected as sign of q
child's birthday, 1 do not know.
1 had heard much talk about the
Sakura. Cherry blooms. They spoke
always with so much enthusiasm of the
beauty of the sakura no hama (the cher.
ry's blossom) that I thought they were
surely e1aggerating.
These blossoms generally appear about
the first day Of April, This Spring the
blooming was little later than usual
about the 18th. The trees are planted
in rows and the branches are thick, max.
ing symmetrical form.
When in full bloom it is most beau.
tiful sight. The blossoms are pure white
nothing ever saw was quite SO white.
The number of blossoms are beyond all
computation. It looks mass of uncoun-
table flowers so thickly set as hardly to
leave room for one more. One must see
for himselfin order to fully appreciate
the beauty. But it is said these beauti.
full trees are fruitless-bear no fruit. 1t
exhausts itself, it seems, in producing
myriads of beautiful white blossoms. II
there were fewer blossoms, We doubt not
there would be fruit.
And so nature teaches US that it is
possible to e1pend too much effort upon
the beautiful exterior, and thereby lose
fruit bearing power. Our Master had
something to say about fruitless tree.
