A Humorous Snake.

In Marianne North's "Recollections of q
Happy Life" is q description of a tame
snake.
Its mistress would sometimes twist the
pretty bronze creature in the great plat of
hair she wore around her head, and once
threatened to go down thus decorated to a
dinner party of rather stiff people.
But one of the snakes own eccentricities
serves to distinguish it among all other
reptiles OF a similar nature which have
served as pets.
1t was as fond Of glittering things rs it's
mistress herself, and when she took off her
many rings and placed them on different
parts OF the table it would go about col
iectlnR them and stringing them on its
1.-the body. Then it would tie itself in a
knot. so that the rings could not be taken
OF until it was pleased to unite itself
again.

A circumstance which l should say was
IN uncommon one in the annals of shikar
happened the other day. A gentleman
while out shooting in the Eastern Dun in
canebrake started leopard and cub.
Among his dogs which were beating was
powerful English greyhound. This dog
drove off the leopard and killed the cub.
This same dog also killed very powerful
iungoor (gray monkey, one of the largest
size, standing fully feet Q inches or 4
feet.
One of the spaniels had cut this lungoor
off from the tree for which it was making.
and it turned upon the dog and bit it in
the neck very severely, it's tusks being as
large as small leopard's. It then tried
to strangle the dog, when the greyhound
came to the rescue. 1t caught the lun9oor
by the nape of the neck and with one
crunch killed it.-Asian.

There is hardly anything so bad that a

OF philosopher that he reaps an advan-

A little Boston girl had for some time

Ill with pneumonia. One day, when she
had begun to get better, she told her man.
ma how very much she wanted a dog, and
begged her to ask grandpa to buy her one.
Mamma answered that grandpa did not
like dogs and probably would not be will

invalid look sadly disappointed, she said:

"Oh. no." answered the child, whose few
years had taught her little wisdom, 1.-THE

An Australian paper said very humor-
ously, 'Rudyard Kipling landed on this
island at IL O'Clock and at 1918 he'had

Eyes, that is very funny" said Kipling.
but 1t Is not true. This is how it was: A
young reporter c0rnered me Just after
had landed. I treated him kindly, but
said firmly that ! was not to be inter
viewed
~ have no thought Of interviewing
you.' replied the reporter with touch of
sadness in his voice. I ask q much great
er favor than that"
1t turned out that the reporter was a
man with theory who had been persist
emily sat down upon by his superiors on
the press. He had an Australian policy
that he knew would be of the greatest
benefit to the country. No paper would
print 1t. His modest request was that
kipling would let him put forth his theory
as the scheme of the young novelist.
They will print it," he said, III give it

"All right" agreed Kipling, 'fire
ahead"
so the young reporter got in four mortal
columns telling the people of Australia
how to run their country.

raised. l hope that young man realizes

An OK Yoke Punish m emit,

There is an old farmer out in Jersey

ing as was ever cherished by the mikado
himself It was q great shock to him
one evening at church when he caught
his fourteen-year-old daughter exchang-
ing glances and smiles with neighbours
son couple Of years older. The old
gentleman unused over the problem all
the way home. and finally hit upon an
expedient which he only awaited the op-
portnnity to put into practice.
This was not long in coming. As he
turned q corner Of the road the next
day he caught glimpse of the young
couple on the road ahead of him, walk
ing along, hand in hand. and even as he
paused, speechless, he saw them ex-
change a kiss. That settled it.
With few strides he had overtaken
the culprits and was marching them of
to his barn, which stood in prominent
position close by tho high road. A
shout brought out the hired man, and in
twinkling the old granger had slipped
an OK bow over his victims heads. Then
he seated them on the doorstep and kept
them there for one mortal hour, calling
the attention Of all passers by to my
two calves I'm breakin in"
At the end Of the time he released tho
prisoners. who made all haste to put a.

Comes down upon the autumn sun, and with

His bright inheritance Of golden fruits.
