Why is it the tenderest feet must tread
the toughest road?
Why is it the weakest back must carry
the heaviest load
While the feet that are surest and
firmest have the smoothest paths
to go?
And the back that is straigthest and
strongest has never burden to

Why is it the brightest eyes are the
ones soon dim with tears?
Why is it the lightest heart must ache
and ache for years,
While the eyes that are hardest and
coolest shed never bitter tear?
And the heart that is smallest and
meanest has never an ache to fear?
Why is it that those who are saddest
have always the gayest laugh?
Why is it those who need not have al

Why is it the noblest thoughts are the

Why is it the grandest deeds are the
ones that are never confessed,
While the thoughts that are like all
others are the ones we always tell,
And the deeds worth little praise are
the ones that are published well?
Why is it the sweetest smile has for its
sister-a sigh?
Why is it the strongest love is the love
we always pass by,
While the smile that is cold and in
different is the smile for which we
pray,
And the love we kneel to and worship
is only common clay?
Why is it the friends we trust are the
ones who always betray?
Why is it the lips we wish to kiss are
the lips so far away,
While close by our side, if we knew it.

And the lips we might have kissed are
the lips we never see?
Why is it the things we can have are

Why is it none of US live the lives, if

The things that we all can have are the

IN THE COILS OF SNAKES.
Thrilling Experience of Party of Camp
ers.


A snake story comes from Scioto town
ship, o., which rivals the most thrilling
that has been printed in snake lore this
season. On the banks Of Darby creek Is an
extensive body Of timber land known as
Bucklcy's woods.
But although 1t has many allurements
TO offer to the mighty nimrod or the fol-
lower of Walton, il finds very little favor
In the eye on account Of the large number
of snakes both great and small which find
a safe retreat within the seclusion Of the
woods. Notwithstanding the frights and
perils that must necessarily be encounter
ed with the reptile, Harry weatherly, Nat
Bitter, John Bayliss and Mark Plymer,
with colored cook named johnson, de-
cided on weeks outing in the woods, and
accordingly staked their camp. All went
we'll for few days, the boys experiencing
no trouble from the snakes, each congratu-
lating the other that they had not been
scared off from camping ground where
fish and game were so abundant by a lot
OF foolish snake stories.
The four boys slept in a tent while John
son, the cook, bunked under canopy in
hammock, and was sound sleeper. On
the morning of the third day Harry Wealth
sons quarters TO arouse him to prepare
breakfast. Weatherly was struck dumb
with fear and horror on approaching John
son 10 find him In the coils Of two immense
snakes, and stood as one paralyzed for
few moments before bringing his compan-
ions 20 the scene How to rescue poor
johnson from his perilous position with
out endangering his life was the question
they were debating, and could not find
satisfactory answer, when one Of the snakes
answered 1t for them by raising its head
about four inches from the hammock.
This was an opportunity that Bitter, who
IL an expert shot, had been looking for,
aud in an instant he had blown his snake
ships head off.
The other snake. aroused by the report
of the gun and the movements Of Johnson
I'm the hammock, who had awakened by
this time, suddenly uncoiled itself and
mado vicious attack upon the boys. They
fought 1t off with clubs and fired several
times at it with rcvolvcrs, when it made a
retreat into the thick underbrush. John
son had slept in blissful Ignorance of his
dangerous surroundings, and although un-
harmed trembled like leaf when he real
lied the frightiul situation In which Ire
was found. Tho snake that was killed
proved to be an ordinary black snake, and
measured 10 feet inches The night was
chilly and the warmth Of Johnson's body
attracted the snakes to encircle it.-Cin.

ditions, Roman Catholic teachers are to
be employed proportionate to the num-
