SCOTCH COLLIES.

want to tell you som ething I know
about Scotch Collies. They are very
sensible. You can teach them many
things. You begin teaching them when
they are at least one year old, sometimes
before. but they can not remember IL
before.
We have a collie named Bruce. We
have had him for years. We have
taught him many things. I will tell you
some. He will wake you up and bring
us our shoes when we are dressing. He
can also shut the door
One time us children were playing in
the field and mamma sent him TO us
with a note.
Once when / was practicing he came
and begged for me to go and play with
him. But ] made out like I didn't see
him. Then he put his forefeet on my
lap and tried to tell me what he want
ed. got UP and went and washed my
hands and when I came back mamma
said ] must put on my coat and 20 with
him If he begged again. Just AS soon
as she said II he came over and put his
forefeet on the piano and begged
Mamma and l both laughed and said
that he must have heard u.s.
Another time had gone out skating
and mamma wanted me. She told Bruce
to find me, 30 he ran to the top OF the
hill and looked this way and that. but
could not see me anywhere 80 he start
ed homo. When he had gotten about
half way down he happened to look
back and saw a colored man and he
must have thought he had something to
do with me, so he charged at him, but
mamma called him back

THE DISMAL SWAMP.

This swamp covers part OF Virginia's
SOL, as well as North Cardinals, but
the most OF 1t, however. is in the for
ner. In this State it covers parts of
TWO counties. viz, Nansemond and Nor
foik. These are in Southeastern Vir-
Sinia. Here the elevation OF the land
is slight, and, therefore. the land is not
well drained. 1t is natural. then, to
expect swamps and marshes. This re-
zion Is thinly settled. Wild animals
ma home therein. Timber is cx-
ceedinsly plentiful Were n person to
visit this place. he would not see many
people, rs ] have already told you. but
lie could hear the echo from the wood
mans aN as he hcws down the trees
This timber is much used in the making
OF tubs. barrels, etc. The principal
trees are the Juniper, gum and cedar.
In the swamp mentioned above is a
fresh water lake. II is in the middle
of the swamp. The name OF this lake
Is Drummond. 1t receives the same
from having been discovered by Will
liam Drummond. 1t is six miles from
one side of the lake 10 the other. This
is the largest lake In Virginia. Ships
get water here before going on long
voyages. CHARLEY PEAK

THE RUNNING bird.

The hunming bird is small. with
pointed wings, and is most commonly
seen lowering over flowers. The hum
ming sound is made by the rapid move
mcnt OF the wings when in flight. The
chief flowers from which the hummi ing
bird feeds are the trumpet flower and
the morning glory. These birds belong
only TO the New World. There are 800
species in ALL fifteen of these species
are In North America. There is only
one Of the species east of the Missis
sippi River, the ruby -throated hummins
bird. They build small nests covered
with lichenS TO make their nests look
like knots Oh the branches upon which
they build. Their only note is n squeak
but some Of the tropical species are
good singers.

a TRUE STORY.

About three months ago. one of my
rabbits got out OF it's basket. I had
them taken UP by the side OF my room
door every night. and In the morning I
would take them down In the chicken
yard In their pen. SO one night 1t was
warm, and we left the top door open
and ono OF the rabbits got out Of its
basket and jumped of the top porch.
and in the morning I awoke up and
had little cry. So my father went out
to look for it. Tho rabbit had wan
dered out In the chickenyard 1t is n
wonder some dog did not eat 1t up
but II did not.
