The American Adder.

A fullgrown adder may measure
two feet in length and about six inches
around the thickest part of IT'S body.
It's movements are sluggish, and of
course the universal idea prevailing
among the natives of this country that
it is capable Of transferring its head
from one extremity to the other once
every six months is due simply to SUI
perstition. The fact is that the tan Of
this snake does not terminate in a
point as with ophidians generally, but
is stumpy and resembles the head so
much that it is difficult for an OBJ
server situated at a distance of few
yards to distinguish the one from the
other, hence the story of its being two
headed, the fallacy of which no intelli-
gent observer could fail to detect

"Phin" had an unfortunate love for
something more fiery than soda water.
On one occasion he had driven to

equanimity or his olearness Of brain.

he undertook to harness his own
horse, TO the delight Of the stable
boys.
He managed to get the harness on,
after much trouble, but when he I'M

the stable boys, convulsed with laugh

"As for the oppressed, they are blind

cier, was talking about music in the
smoke room of the Deutschland.
81 like all music" he said, except
such native aud special sorts as the
tom-tom, the bagpipes, or the Indian
hufaa give off.
Speaking of bagpipes, did you ever
notice how piper prances up and
down as he pipes? He never sits, he
never stands still, but up and down.
round and round, to and fro he struts
continually.
"A little boy, listening to the weird
sldrl Of the bagpipes of a street per-
former, once said to his father:
Father, why does the piper keep
on the move all the time he plays?

some an eye, others a hook like Cap
