Shakespeare saw life In large and

memorable sequence of cause and ef-

bility. If things were 'rotten in Den
mark" 1t was because the fathers had
eaten sour grapes and the children's
teeth were set ON edge; If Macbeth
trembled at the knocking at the gate, 1t
was because conscience doth make

The Apaches and Cheyennes are in
the habit of holding a pony smoke on
Thanksgiving day. Often the Osages,
too, indulge in this expensive festival.
A pony smoke is a friendly meeting of
two tribes and is especially appropriate
for the occasion. The tribe giving the
smoke is supposed to bear all the ex-
penses. They provide the best game
and vegetables in the market for their
guests, and at the end of the first days
meeting they present a good pony to

The fashion of sonnet writing was at
its height in the sixteenth century,
when .Rousard, the French prince of
poets" In his own country and genera
ton, wrote over 900 sonnets, a total
which appears only to have been ex-
ceeded by Gomez de Quevedo, the
Spanish Voltaire, who is said to have
written over 1000. Fortunately for
sonnet lovers some of the best poets
have been prolific sonneteers. Petrarch,
who created the classic model which
later poets initiated, wrote 315. Cam
oens is responsible for 352, Sir Philip
Sidney wrote los, Spenser SS and
Dante so. English sonnets were first
written by Sir Thomas Wyatt Q503-42)

The Sea Horse.

This fish is found in the Atlantic
cea around the coast of Spain, the
south Of France, in the Mediterranean
and In the Indian ocean. Sea horses
are very small and have been found
often curled up in oyster shells. The
head is much like that of a horse, and
the rings around the body and tail re-
semble those Of some caterplllars. The
habits of these fishes are singular and
interesting. They swim with a waving
motion, and frequently wind their tails
around the weeds and rushes. They
have fins to sustain them in the water,
and even in the air. They live on
worms, fishes, eggs and substances
found in the bottom of the sea.
