Snakes have no eyelids, and there fore never close their eyes. Their eyeball is covered with transparent scales much resembling glass. When the reptile casts it's outer skin, the eye scales come off with the rest of the transparent envelope, out of which the snake slips. This glassy eye scale is so tough that it effectually pro- tects the true eye from the twigs, sharp grass, and other Instructions which the snake encounters in it's travels, yet it is transparent enough to allow of perfect vision.

Memories Catcchism.

A remarkable instance of memoriz-
ing the shorter CateChlsm has been
reported by Rev. \ \, Talbot. of the
Southern Presbyterian mission station
at Tsingkiang-p u, China. Mr.. Tai
bot writes
Last week we had a very interest
ing ease among our inquiries. He was
a young man from one Of our out
stations. His father is a vegetarian
and an ardent worshiper of idols But
this boy. who cUuld not read a single
character heard Of the Jesus chapel
through his older brother and deter
day to this he has shown remarkable
zeal. HIS father bitterly opposed
his son and forbade him 10 go to
church So the hoy had to devise
plans to elude his father. But when
the boy heard at church that it was
his duty to keep the sabbath Day he
went home to make a firm stand for
God ana actually did refuse to work
on Sunday.
He secured Il Shorter Catechlsm
from our helper. and although he did
not know character. he secretly went
among his neiEhbors and friends ask
ing them to call each character as he
learned it. From the sound of the
characters totu MN ne memufized the
shorter Chtechisn in several months
time, together with twenty -fouI
hymns lie has just recited the Cat.
echism perfectly to Mr.. Graham, and
at our last Sabbath morning service
he was awarded diploma through
the courtesy of the Christian Observ-
err and the publication committee
gave him a nice Bible. He WAS very
happy indeed and felt fully repaid
when his diploma and Bible were giver
To him. Although he cannot read
the Bible will be great comfort
u him"
The earnestuess with which thi.
Chinese boy sought the knowledge
of God as contained in the Bible and
summarized in the Shorter Catechisn
affords a striking lesson to those who
are more highly favored than he.

Great Report from Brazil.

The Campo Field, Brazil, has just
closed very successful year in spite
of the fact that droughts and wars
have made the work hard and at
times discouraging. The churches and
brethren have shown a spirit or real
sacrifice. We baptised 454 during
the year 1914, which il the largest
number ever baptised during one year
The contributions were the largest In
the history of the work. The native
brethren contributed about SIS, 900
though they are passing a great f.
nancial crisis
We have twenty-six churches with
1875 preaching points and several
schools. The Campos school has had
n successful year. There were 126
students matriculsted
