A Fable.
A pert young ostrich, inflated by the
beauty pf his growing tail feathers, en
countered a hippopotamus taking the
evening air by the bank of the river in
which he was conducting his business.
Sauntering insolently by, the bird re
turned the sedate beast’s salute with a
negligent nod, affecting at the same
time to yawn. “My young friend,” said
the hippopotamus, in a tone of reproof,
“If yon must indulge in that practice,
let me at least show yon how it is done
by those who have pursued it from
youth.” With these words he split his
face, and, laying back the lid, exposed a
cavern which presently closed on a para
lyzed ostrich. Then the level beams of
the sun fell with superfluous illumina
tion on the features of a hippopotamus
already lighted up by a saintly smile.

Kit's Reason.
Hon. John L does not like chil
dren. and the B children were told
of his 'dislike before he came to dinner
with their parents. Before the dinner
they had been instructed to be very quiet
during dinner; so, although both of them
regarded the visitor with some curiouity,
neither spoke a word until dessert came
on. Then little' Kit piped up with an
almond in her mouth and all the shrill
femininity of seven years in her tones:
“Mr. Li., I’ve thought how it is about
you. Don’t you suppose the reason you
don't like children is because you haven’t
got any of ns of your own?”—New York
