and as much as is usually acquired by

young beginner. AS the language of
Mexico and the South American repub-

The Spaniards are poor and proud. No
other country has so many titled peo-

the title of marquis, there are $50
counts and countless number of bar
ons, yiscounts and dons. And all their

what the polite Spaniard did in this

SQUIRRELS IN THE OAK.
How the Animals Kept House and Got
Their Provisions.

My favorite boarders in the oak were
the gray squirrels. The boys knew their
hole from a woodpecker's at a glance
for it was in the living trunk of the
tree, and the red-brown margin always
showed where their powerful teeth had
been cutting away the bark that threat
ened to grow in and close them up.
have often wondered how the wood.
peckers knew that ii would imprison
them, and that they must put up with
the dead limb.
As for the grays, they were not afraid
T. live in the heart of the oak, and what
stores of nuts, harvested in the hick-
cries on the hill, they did manage &c
tote" up there! There must have been
a peck at least when | ruthlessly
chopped into the hollow with a sharp
Ratchet and captured fine brood Of
young ones that were soon famed into
graceful and affec;ionate pets.
The old father and mother we did
not want, even if we could have caught
them, because they are fierce and I'M
tamable in captivity.
The abduction of their pretty chill
dren did not seem to weigh much on
their minds; they gave no sign of the
poignant grief, not to be comforted,
that | have seen, for instance, in blue
birds whose nests had been despoiled
but refitted their den as snugly as
before and raised another family.
When my squirrels went harvesting
one of them first held his head in the
mouth of the hole for half a minute
TO see if the coast was clear. Presently
out he whisked, and stopped again to
make sure. while his fate followed.
Then Mr.. Squirrel gave a rasping, long
drawn bark of defiance, which must
have filled his lady's heart with admira
ton for his boldness, and with apprc-
tension lest some unwary creature
should come within reach OF her lords
anger
Then-if you didn't betray yourself
and send both scampering in widest
fright back to the hole-after playing
hide-and-seek for few moments, they
ran in single file out to the topmOst
twigs of great Dough, gained branch
of the neighboring bare walnut, and
crossing to its farther side, made a des-
perate flying leap into the top of a
young hickory, Running half way down
this they used a succession of dogwoods
and oak saplings until they had reached
the grove of tall, straight hickories on
the hill, an eighth of mile from their
hole in the oak. Come on them sud
denly now if you would care to see
fast time made over this queer course,
and some recOrd-breaking leaps that
fairly take away ones breath.-Scrib-
