The President may know all about the

Learning has come .nto the world

True friendship is a royal lineage. 1t

For loyalty may be blind. and friendship

Tax Collectors Ruse.

In tie district Of Annonay, France,
says the London Express, the Gov
eminent Collector of Taxes came to
the conclusion that large number OF
cyclists failed to register their ma
chimes, SO as to avoid paying the
bicycle tax. He, therefore, hit upon
a novel stratagem for finding out the
defaulters.
He called a meeting of all the
cyclists in the district for the pre-
tended purpose of forming a local
touring club, which was to be inau-
gurated by a grand free banquet at
the expense Of the promoters of the
movement. The meeting was largely
attended, and about 800 cyclists hand
ed in their names. Next day some
fiftylsix of these were astonished to
receive notices that unless they
paid their bicycle tax at once they
would be prosecuted for failing to de-
clare that they were owners of cycles.

About the Joint Snake.

NEARLY everybody" said Zoo
keeper, believes in joint snakeh-be-
lieves in little snakes that can dis
member themselves into four or five
pieces and then come together again.
Sometimes these reptiles are called
glass snakes.
Though there seems to be incontro-
vertible evidence to the contrary, it Is
nevertheless q fact that joint snakes
(glass snakes) don't exist. There does
exist, though, a lizard, called scien-
tifically Dpheosaurus ventralis, that is
the same thing.
ssThis lizard, because it is long and
slim and legless, looks like snake.
It's tail is very delicate. The verte-
brae are so fragile that the slightest
shock causes its tail to break on
to Break at the same time, maybe, into
three or four pieces. People seeing
q lizard go through this operation
think they have seen joint snake.
The tall pieces, Of course, can't be
taken on again, but the lizard IS Just
as well Of, for its tail always grows
back to its original length. This
lizard is to be found in the South and
West. We have none here. Phila

DAUGHTER OF THE FARM.

The sunlight's glow falls full upon the hill
Where clovers flood the earth with rosy
bloom.
But restful shadows dim the vale beyond
That guarding oaks have sheltered into
gloom;
And Just between the winding streamlet
sings,
And over all the breath of summer clings.
IT'S noontide-full-blown rose among the
hours
That garland round the day-and as the
air
is hushed from fretful breezes, so nv soul
lis soothed by natures silent praise and
prayer.
The honey bees drone Ger their flower
sweets,
And some lone bird its tender call repeats.
See, near the brookside strays little
grace
Blue eyed, gold haired, her bonnet on
her arm,
And tiny skirt upheld with meadowblooms
Less fair than she-wee daughter Of the
farm,
Whose far, bright fields that join the joy
Gus sky
Bid hearts aweary put their sorrows by.
Marie A. Mayfeld, in The Cultivator.
