Tn. ch,pmuuk and the Hornet.


This entertaining story in rhyme is from
Gleanings in Bee Culture;
Two boys. young and gay, left sehool one
bright day
Torove IN the woods for awhile;
And they Jumped with delight. for the very
first sight
VISA munk on the old wood pile.
They thought not of books. nor Of still run
ming brooks,
As tho sport Of the day bad begun;
For all Of you know. who werc boys long ago,
That. In pusgiing hunks, there Is fun
But tho chipmunk so bright soon skipped out
Of sight,
In the end Of an old hollow rail-
And the boys, full OF tricks, tried with split
ended sticks
To pull the munk out by the tail
b they pusgIsd and twisted, and long they
persisted,
And rubbed up the ears Of their dog;
But the chipmunk so red had scheme In bis
head,
So be out and ran under a log.
Now an old hornet she. of her young in this
tree
Had sought TO raise up good bath;
And all Of you know. that four years ago
Was a good one for hornets TO hatch
But the boys eyes were full (of Australian
WOOL,
And they looked out for nothing but game;
So they pugRled the log and sieked on their
dog.
And this La ust where they were lame;
For each hornet within, rushed out with pin
To tickle the boys. young and bold;
While they jumped over hummocks. rolled
heels over etomhchs,
And the rest OF my story is told

given for caring for the milk as follows;
"As soon as the milk comes put IL In q

The Hippopotamus.

The hippopotamus takes its name from
two Greek words that mean river horse,
though il is not at all like horse, but a
great deal more like strange COW. 1t
lives in the streams Of Africa, where it
feeds on grass, leaves, grain, shrubs weeds
and all kinds Of green meat. 1t can stay
In the bed of the stream and walk there to
seek it's food and not come up TO breathe
more than FIVE or six times in an hour. IL
can swim and dive and float, though it is
of such great size and has huge head
and short legs It delights to live on the
banks of wide lakes. where II can lie in the
mud and sleep or wade in the stream and
puff and grunt and spirit water from its
great mouth and take its ease all day long.

A HIPPoPoTAMUs.

II is not a fierce beast to look at, but he
is foe to be feared. for his great teeth can
crunch and tear a man in half or split the
side of a boat, and he will turn on those
who hurt and wound him. When full
grown the male beast is twelve feet long
and as much around the trunk. His legs
are so short that they scarce keep him of
the ground, and when he stands up he
looks like great butt stuck on four short
stumps. The mouth is enormous and its
size is greatly increased by the odd man
ner in which the jaw is set in the head.
He can close up the Sits in his nose so
that he can dive down in the streams, and
his eyes are so formed that he can stick
them out or draw them in, that he may
see where be goes on land or when be IS
down on the bed Of a lake can look for
grass and weeds.

Vegetable FIxtrnps.

II is a we'll known fact that several
plants keep themselves alive by eating in
sects. Botanists tell as that 1t is through
their roots that the bulk Of plants derive a
large portion OF their food. Therefore
those plants that have few roots, and can
not get enough Of one kind of diet (nitrog-
enous) from the soil, must obtain It in
some other way. Consequently the leaves
must assist them by forming themselves
into cunningly contrtVed traps, and by
giving off in some cases a sticky fluid that
acts partly as Aycatoher. Bees, wssps,
moths, beetles. midges. flies, daddy long
legs. enats and other insects all form the
food Of such plants as the Drohera or sun
dew. the Nepsnthes or pitcher plant, tho
Darlingtonia or cobra plant.

II the ducks and geese became police,
And boys were as good as gold;
II they grew penny rolls on telegraph poles,
And shoes didn't need TO be soled;
II your brother were you and you were he,
And somebody else were we;
II you put down "one," and carrying
none"
The answer was twenty-three;
II the dolls came out, aud played about,
When you we're gone 10 bed;
II nursie in nittens were miuding the kit
tens,
And pussy was nurse instead
III think We must say that such new way
For you. desrie never would do,
For II all the town were upside down.
'Twould very much upset you.
