The schoolroom was very quiet, for all
the children had gone home The sun
had set some time before, and there was
only faint light III the room. A read
ing book and a slate lay OH Harrys desk.
He had forgotten to put them away.
All at once the reading book said:

see, that careless little Harry does make

myself. A little while ago Mary White

Blanket Street.

On, come with me- baby, to Blanket street,
IT'S q famous place, dear, for tired feet.
Up Stairway hill, across Landing Ridge.
Past BanDister lane and then kissing bridge, {"
Where somebody always you re sure to meet
Over tho bridges and at last we are there,
Right in the middle Of Little Crib square
The street is as white us the driven snow.
But warm like the blossom time snow, you
know
Warm to toes that are soft and pink and bare. ,
And, Speaking Of toes. it's in Blanket street
That tho five little pigs so often meet,
AND the httlest always goes squeak. Squeak,
squeak,
Though the weather is never cold and bleak
For it's always summer in Blanket street.
And the yellow bird talks rs well as sings,
And the bumblebee huns. but never stines.
And the love lamps burn like stars all night
Oh, come, and be sure to listen right,
FOR the Blanket street birds say wonderful
things.

"E Pluribus Unum.n

The circumstances attending the
adoption of the legend "E Pluribus
Qnumn as the motto of the United
States have never been fully explained
by the historians. 1t was probably used
on coins-and some say upon early
colonial fiag-long before it was regu-
larly recognized by the leading officials
Of the new republic. The Oldest coin
bearing the motto in full is colonial
cent coined by New Jersey in the year
1856: The same year it appeared on a
small medal recognized among the col
lectors of coins as 1.-THE confederatio. -
This medal was Il national token, be,
heve, and was coined by authorities
the general government. 1t bore on one
side ID stars and a blazing sun, the lat
ter surrounded by the word " Confeder.
alto, which gives it the name by which
it is known to the numismatists.
The words in the headline are nm
doubtedly from V3rgil's "Nforetus. " n
poem devoted to n description of a GER
tain salad! In the rhyming recipe he
gives Instructions for mixing the proper
herbs and pounding the same in NOR

that the colonies were mixed in the
mortar of the Revolution and came ont

TRUCKING A CRAB.
African Natives Take Advantage OF His
Industry In u Heartless Manner.

African Natives Take Advantages OF His
Industry In Heartless Manner.
In Africa there exists Il certain mem
Der of the crab genus commonly known
as the great tree crab This peculiar
shellfish has an offensive trick of
crawling up the cocnanut trees, biting
off the oocoanuts and then creeping
down again backward
The theory is that the nuts are shat
tered by the fall, and the great tree crab
is thus enabled to enjoy hearty meal
Now, the natives who inhabit regions
infested by this i'll conditioned crab are
well aware that the lower portion of the
crabs anatomy is soft and sensitive, and
they believe that the ''bivalve' was
thus constructed in order that he might
know when he had reached the ground,
and when, consequently he might with
safety release his grasp of the trunk
So what they do i'll order to stop his
depredations, which often ruin the CO.
coanut crops, is this: While the crab is
engaged in nipping off the cocoanuts
they climb half way up the trees and
there drive row of long nails right
around the tree, allowing an inch OF SO
of the nails to project.
The crab has no knowledge of disas-
ter, nor yet the fitness of things. As he
descends the sensitive part of his body
suddenly touches the nails Thinking he
has reached the ground, he naturally
lets 60. Instantly he falls backward and
cracks his own shell ON the ground. =
