sects. They attack hen roosts and
swallow the eggs whole. They drink
a great deal of water, although they
can live for weeks, even months, in
captivity without touching food or
water. AS a rule they are not ag-
gressive, and unless interfered with or
irritated they crawl along the ground
with neck undated, looking like some
harmless snake.

There never has been an important
revolutionary movement without a

in her portraits somewhat auburn.
Queen Elizabeth was of decidedly red

Miss Mackay's dress was of cream
chiffon, with a finely cut yoke. On
the shoulders were small capes of rose

finished with a rufile of lace. The
belt was of lace and the skirt made
with groups of enc tucks and had

Schiller's Mean Revenge.

When Schiller was a boy at school
he was tormented by Swiss tutor
named Kuplig, who came from the
Grisons canton. Years later, when
the poet wrote "The Robbers" he re-
venged himself on Kuplig and the
Grisons by introducing this little
speech: ITO be a scamp you must
have genius. Moreover, a special eli
mate is needed for the growth of
scamps, and to prove this recon-
mend you to visit the Grisons canton.
1t is the veritable Athens of modern
rascality." In the later editions of
THE Robbers" this quaint pit of spleen
does not appear 1t is suggested that
Schiller was not moved to expunge
it by any remorseful feeling, but by a
very forcible protest from the resi-
dents of the abused canton against
this calumny.
