A Magic Letter.

Did you ever think what a strange
etter s is? 1t is a serpent in disguise.
I4isten-you can hear it hiss. It is the
wizard OF. the alphabet. 1t gives pos
session and multiplies indefinitely by
it's touch. It changes a tree into trees
and house into houses. Sometimes it
is very spiteful, and will change a pet
into pest, pear into spear, a word
into a sword and laughter into slaugh-
ter, and it will make hot shot at any
time
Farmers have to watch it closely. 1t
will make Scorn of his corn and re-
duce every peck to a speck. Some
times he finds it useful. If he needs
more room for his stock it will change
a table into a stable for him, and if he
is short of hay he can set out a row Of
tacks. 1t will turn them into stacks.
He must be careful, however, and not
let his nails lie around loose. The ser
pent's breath will turn them into
snails. If he wishes to use an engine
about his farm work he need not buy
any coal or have water to run it. Let
the serpent glide before his horses.
The team will turr to steam.
If you ever get hurt, call the serpent
to your aid. Instantly your pain will
be Spain Be sure to take it with you
the next time you climb mountain if
you desire to witness a marvel. It will
make the peak speak. But don't let it
come round while you are reading
now. It will make the tale stale.
No Comforts for school Boys Long
Ago. #sfs..st.. Il
Only sixty years have passed since
the boys Of Elton yentured to beg that
pipes might be laid in some of the
school buildings SO that they need not
fetch water from the pumps in the
freezing winter weather, and the peti-
ton was promptly rejected, and the
scornful comment that s.they would
be wanting gas and Turkey carpets
.nextW At Winchester, another big En-
5gllsh school, all the lads had to wash
in an open yard called Moab. where
half dozen tubs We're arranged around
the wall, and it was the duty Of one
of the juniors to go from tub to tub
on frosty mornings, and thaw the ice
with a candle. Comfort was deemed
a bad thing for boys, lest they should
grow up dainty and unmanly. g Cold Y,
said DR.. Keate, a FAMOUS headmaster
of Elton, to a poor little BIT Of human-
ity whom he met shivering and shak-
ing in the hail. Don't talk to me OF
being cold! You must learn to bear it,
Sir! You are not at a girls scnoo oil . -
