Reading Aloud.

at is not difficult to show that, in the
average recitation room, too little atten-
ton is paid to the careful consideration
of the xt. The pupil studies the defini-
milton of every word, and yet fails to
grasp the inner meaning Of the phrase
and clause. The finer shades Of thought
and feeling are frequently overlooked.
The transitions in thought and emotions
are scarcely noticed. We are content to
get general, vague idea Of the spirit Of
the author, and, in the stress Of other
studies. are prone 70 overlook the details
in literary study, without a knowledge OF
which it is impossible to form sound
literary judgments. Nov, it is claimed

The Path of Duty.

The path OF duty is the path of promo
ton. The man who faithfully discharges
his duty in whatever situation Of life be
may find himself who does not think OF
the small pay that he receives, but who
Gays within himself that no matter how
small the salary, he has entered into
contract with his employer to give his
services in exchange for the pay which he
receives, and that therefore he lie, as an
honest man, under obligation TO give the
very best service that is in him-that man
we say, will have the smile of his God
and will be sought for by those who know
the value of such an employe.-Rich-
mond, Va, Times.

The latest authentic snake story Is
from North Glenwood farm, near Eas-
ton, one OF the country places In Talbot
County. Md The other day big
hlacksnake was seen emerging from
an ice pond. IL was killed. A pro-
tuberance was noticed about the mid
die. The snake was chopped in two.
and a porcelain turkey nest egg rolled
out. Captain Noble Robinson was
tenant on the farm last year. Mrs.
Robinson raised turkeys. using china
nest eggs in their nests. She says
that fourteen months ago she missed
the nest egg from nest near the Ice
pond. She supposed boy who had
the range Of the meadow had taken
Il. when the egg from the snake was
shown To Mrs. Robinson she identified
IL as one she had lost 10y certain
lncised mark upon IL. The snake had
carried the china egg fourteen months
in his vcrmiform appendix, apparently
without having appendicitis. But he
must have thought very hard OF Il,
and that II was very singular that IL
