A HOmesick HippOpOtamus.

During Bayard Taylor's visits to the
geological gardens in London he noticed
hippopotamus which lay in it's tank
apparently oblivious of its surroundings.
Entering into conversation with the
keeper one morning, he was told that
the creature refused to eat and was
gradually starving itself to death. II
fancy it's homesick," added the keeper.
"He's a fine specimen. and it seems
pity we should lose him, but he's moped
ever since the keeper who had charge of
him on board the steamer left. He pays
no attention to anything say"
Learning that the creature came from
part of Africa he had once visited. Mr..
Taylor. on an impulse, leaned forward
and addressed it in the dialect used by
the hunters and keepers of that region.
The animal lifted his head and the small
eyes opened. Mr.. Taylor repeated his
remark, when what does Mr.. Hippo do

stood. Crossing to the other side of the

the same result. the poor thing showing

gardens. being always noticed by his
African friend; finally, before leaving
the city, he taught the keeper the few
sentences he had been in the habit of
addressing to the hippopotamus and
went his way.
Two years later he was in London, and
curious to know the result, again paid
his respects to his amphibious friend.
To his surprise, the creature recognized
his voice at once, and expressed his Joy
by padding from side to side OF his tank
after his visitor.
Bayard Taylor says it convinced him
that even hippopotamus may have at
fections, and tenacious ones at that, as
we'll as good memory.

DAISY'S AFTERNOON TEA.

Daisy didn't quite know what to do.
Mamma had headache, and wanted to
lie down, and had just asked her to
amuse herself while. and had given
her a penny to spend at the grocery.
| store.
Daisy thought for some time as to
how she should "amuse herself" AT
last she said, II will give an afternoon
tea"
OFF Daisy trotted to the grocery store,
and with her penny bought m DIST
sticky lump, twisted up in brown
paper; and the grocery-man, who was a
great friend of Daisy's, when he heard
of the afternoon tea, gave her a hand
full of raisins besides.
Then she went home; and Della, the
cook. gave her glass of milk with
some cookies. and big yellow banana,
Then Daisy took her own little table
and rocking chair out in the shade
under the big elm, and set the table
nicely with white cloth, which she had
begged of Della. and beautiful bunch
Of flowers in the centre. Then she
spread out her refreshments. and sat
down to wait for the company.
1t was some time before any one came.
Finally. Daisy saw what she supposed
was her own Kitty Glover; but it wasn't.
1t was strange kitty, so poor and thin
aud so scared and shy that it was long
while before Daisy could coax her near
to drink some milk; but, when she did
drink. she seemed to enjoy it SO much
that Daisy was glad her own fat Kitty
Clover hadn't come to drink it up her.
self.
Just as the kitty was nearing the
bottom of the glass, the arrival of a new
guest sent her running up the elm tree
as fast as she could go. The new guest
was Prince, just home from ramble,
hot and hungry; and he finished the
m Tx with two laps of his great tongue,
and then ate cookies till Daisy
called him "a greedy dog" and said he
shouldn't have another one. So Prince
thought he would take nap under the
trees.
Daisy waited a while longer, and was
thinking she shouldn't have any more
callers, when she saw weary couple
coming down the road, "a man with a
hand organ, and tired, dusty, little
monkey.
The man asked Daisy for drink, so
she ran in to Della for more milk and
cookies; and. while the man was enjoy
ing his lunch. the monkey perched on
the edge of the table, and ate the big
banana. piece by piece, from Daisy's
hands. Then the man played some
tunes on the hand-organ; and the mon
key danced, and did a number of pretty
tricks. He then politely lifted his little
red cap to Daisy, and then held out a
tiny paw for her to shake. The man
lifted his cap, also; and they went off
down the road.
1t was almost night now, so Daisy ate
the moist, sticky lump and the raisins
herself. Then she ran in to tell man.
ma about her first afternoon tea. and
how delighted all her guests were. And
mamma was as much pleased as Daisy.

THE SCISSORS.
BY LAURA E. RICHARDS.

We're jolly pair of twins,
And we always work together,
We are always bright and sharp,
However dull the weather.
Whenever little Maidie
Takes her work-bo in her lap,
We are always up and ready
With our "Snip, snip, snapp
Chorus
Snip, snip, snap,
Snip, snip, snap,
We are always up and ready
With our sSnip, snip, snapp'
We cut the pretty patches
To piece the pretty quilt
Each square the next one matches,
Their posies never wilt
We trim the edges neatly,
With never a mishap,
And what music sounds so sweetly
AS our ''Snip, snip, snap!'
We cut the dolly's mantle;
We shape the dolly's dress.
oh, half the clever things we do
You'd never, never guess
For food or sleep or playtime,
We do not care rap,
But are ready night and daytime,
With our Snip, snip, snap?'
CHORUS
Snip, snip, snap,
Snip, snip snap,
But are ready night and daytime,

MES, and the children had cheerfully
done their part. They had further
more promised not to ask for any
Greats" that summer. Their mother
had added to the sum by making
her old bonnet and cape do service
for still another season.
John was thirteen, and Barbara
twelve; and they were devoted play
mates, always sharing each others
possessions and enjoying the same
pleasures.
When they reached the grocery
store, they left their bicycles, accord
ing to their usual custom, in care of
the obliging store-keeper. Their
mother had made it a stipulation that
they should never use them when it
was necessary to cross the track. The
walk to the fish man was only delayed
by wistful glance at a big poster on
an old barn setting forth the delights
to be seen the next afternoon at the
circus in Huntsville. No chance for
them this year. This was one of the
treats they had promised to forego.
Just as they were leaving the fish
man, Barbara, who had glanced down
the road, called OUT
Look, John! What's that?"
About quarter Of mile off, on
the side of the road, under some big
naples, was huge animal. What
could it be? And, behind, another
one, with big hump; and then some
horses! Its an elephant and a
camelp shouted John; and away
they ran as fast as their legs could
carry them for nearer view. Yes:
it seemed too wonderful to be true;
but there was part of the circus, as
calmly resting in the shade as if ele-
plants and camels were an everyday
occurrence in country town.
As they drew nearer, they saw a
thin figure, with something white
wound about his head, perched on
the elephants back, and man was
standing beside the camel; and an
other man, with red hair and
freckled face, was sitting on beauti-
full calico horse, and leadingtwo white
ones aud dear little sorrel-colored
pony. The children were too much
impressed to speak at first and the
red haired man said: 81 say, Bub,
where's the nearest place to get wat
er for my animalsi They're so dry
they can't go step farther"
"WhY don't you take them right
in there9" said John. That's where
Uncle William lives, and he would
be proud to have your circus drink
out of his watering-trough. The
water in the well is first class"
