All Feet.

The sight OF full-grown centipede
is said by travellers in tropical lands
to be enough to affect the strongest
nerves. Ten to eleven inches is the
averge length, although larger ones
have been seen. Laocadio Hearn, in
1.-Two Years in the French West In
dies, says that the vitality Of the cen
tipede is amazing.
Mr.. Hearn kept one in bottle
without food or water, for thirteen
weeks, at the end of which time it
remained active and dangerous as ever.
The centipede has one natural enemy
able to cope with him. the hen.
The hen attacks him with delight
and often swallows him, head first,
without taking the trouble to kill him.
The cat hunts him, but she is careful
never to put her head near him. She
has trick of whirling him round and
round upon the floor 70 quickly as to
stupefy him then when she sees good
chance she strikes him dead with her
claws.
There are superstitions concerning
the creature, which have a good effect
in diminishing bis tribe. If you Kill
centipede you are sure to receive
money coon; and even if you dream of
killing one it is good luck.

The Day is Done.

The day is done, and the darkness
Falls from the wings Of Night,
As a feather is waited downward
From an eagle in his fight.
see the lights of the village
Clean through the rain and the mist
And a feeling Of sadness comes DER me
That my soul cannot resist:
A feeling of sadness and longing
That is not akin to pain,
And resembles sorrow only
As the mist resembles the rain.
Come, read to me some poem,
Some simple and heartfelt lay,
That shall soothe this restless feeling,
And Danish the thoughts of day.
Not from the grand old masters,
Not from the bards sublime,
Whose distant footsteps echo
Through the corridors Of Time.
For, like strains of martial music,
Their mighty thoughts suggest
Life's endless toll and endeavor;
And tonight long for rest,
Read from some humber poet,
Whose songs gushed from his heart
As showers from the clouds of summer
Or tears from the eyelids start;
Who, through long days of labor
And nights devoid of ease,
Still heard in his soul the music
wonderful melodies.
Such songs have power to quiet
The restless pulse Of care,
And come like the benediction
That follows after prayer.
Then read from the treasured volume
The poem of thy choice,
And lend to the rhyme of the poet
The beauty Of thy voice.
And the night shall be filled with music.
And the cares that infest the day
Shall fold their tents, like the Arabs,
And as silently steal away.
