The spider had spun his well tightly around the neck and cii'ire head of ihe riiiikc, and drawn him clear from the fl.-or. makin:; him a close priso ner. - The snake ws, taken, while yet in the' coils of the spider, to a photographer.

It undo him -a little i u!ii'('i:i'..i table sometimes when he reflcet I ed that the good little bovs always died. lie ioved t i live, you know, and that was the most uophnsatit feature about bcin ir a Sunday School book boy. ' He knew it. was not healthy to he good. He knew it wui inoio fatal than consumption to be so siiperunturally good as the boys in the books were; he knew that none of them were able to stand it long, ' and it pained him to hiuk that if they put him iu a in ok he would never see it, or even if they did j Ct the book Out before hedied, it wouldn't b'- popular without any pic ture of his funeral in the hack part of t. ir couiun t oe mucn oi a ouiieiuy School book that couliln t tell ::Drut tne advice he rave to the community when he was dying. So, ut last, of course, he had to make up his uiiud to do the best he could under the circumstances to live rijiht. and h-ing on as long as he could, aud have his dying speech ready when the time came. IJut somehow nothing ever went right with fh good little boy ; . nothing turned out with him the nay it turned out with ihe good little boys in the books. Thcv always had a g'Mi-1 time, and the had b.ys had the broken legs; but in - hi eu.-e there was a screw loose somewhere, and it all happened just The other -way. When lie found Jim Uiake stealing ap ples, and witnt under the tree to read to him about the bad little boy who fell out of a lieighboi's apple tree, and br. ke his arm. Jim fell out of the tree, too, hut fell on him and broke his arm,' and Jim was not hurt at a. 1.1' Jacob couldn't under stand that. -There wasn't anything in the books like that. ' ., And once, when i some I ad boys pushed a blind man. over into the mud, and Jacob ran to help him up and re-t-eiv: his blessing, the blind man did not give him any blessing, at aU, but whack, ed h m over the head with his stick., and said he would like to catch him pushing him again and preteudi,ug to lieip him, up. This was not in accordance with any of the books. Jacvb looked them ail over to see. - . , One th.ng that Jacjob wanted .to. do Was to find a lamo dog that hadn't tiny place to stay, and was hungry ,'pcd per secuted, aud: feed and pet him,, and have that dog's imperishable gratitude.

Whatever thi boy did he got into trouble..

Uut the most unaccountable thing about it was that the bad boys in the boat had a good time aii day, and " then reached home ulivc aod well in the most surprising manner.: Jacob- Blcvins Biid there was nothing like itteao (lungs in .the. books. He was perfectly dumbfounded. . , .Wheu he got well he was a. little rjis couraged, but he resolved to' ikecp 'on frying, anyhow. He knew " that bo far his experience wouldn't do to go into A book, but he huuu t yet reached the al lotted cim of life for good littlo.boys, aud he hoped to be able to make a record yet if he could hold on until Ids time was fully up. If everything else failed, Le had his dying speech to fall back ou. He examined his authorities and found that it was no time to go to sea, as a Cabin boy. He called on a ship ea:ptu:n and made his application, and when the . captain asked for his recommendation ho proudly drew out a tract, and pointed to the-words : "To Jacob lilevins, from his affectionate teacher." Uut the captain was a coarse, vui.-ar man, and sai l, '-Oh, that be blowed, that wasn't any pruofthut ho knew how to wash dishes or handle a slush buckcij and he guessed he didn't want him " litis was .altogether the most extra irdi nary thing-that ever hap pened to Jacob in all bis life. A com pliment from 'a teacher or a tract had never failed toinove the tenderest emo tions of ship captains, and open the way to all ( Dices of honor and profit iu their gife it never had iu cny book that he had icad. lie could hardly Lelicve his senses. ;' '. -- This boy always had a hard time of it. Nothing ever came out according to the authorities with him.. At last, one day, when he was around hunting up bad little boys to admonish, lie found a lot of j tbeiu in the (.-Ju iron foundry uxuig up a little juke on fourteen or fifteen dogs, which they had tied together in a long procession, and were g-ii:g to ornament with eirpty uirto-glyceme cuds made last to their tails. Jacob's heart was touched. He sat down on one of those cans for he never minded grea- n w hen duty w;;s before him and he took hold of the foremost dog by the collar, turnint: his ic; roving" eye tiport wicked Tim Jones. 1'ut juft at that moment Alder man I-leWeltcr, full of wrath, stepped in. All the bad boys ran away ; but Jacob Uleviusroso in conscience innocence and began one of those fctately little Sunday School book; speeches, which always com mence with Oh Sir!" in .' dead opposi tion to the fact that no hoy, g'J or bad, ever starts a remark with "Uh Sir!" Hut. tho A tdertiiuri never waited to hew.r the rest. He took Jacob liievcns by the (Mr, 'an J. turned him around, and hit him a whack in the rear with the flat If his hand; and in an instant that good little boy shot out the rr.of aod soared away towards the sun, with the fragments of lho?e fifteen dogs stringing after him like the tail of a kite. Aud tf.ete wasn't u sign of" that Alderman or that old iron" foundry left on earth ; and as for' young Jacob Hleveus, he never g"t a chance to make his 1st dying speech, after all his trouble fixing it up, unless he made it' to the birds, because, although the bulk of him came down all right iu" a tree top iu an adjoining town, the rest of him was apportioned around among four difTereut townships, and so they had to' hold Eve inquests orrdiim to find out whether he: was dead or not,and how it occurred, j ott never saw a boy scattered so. Thus perished the good little boy who did the best he could, but didn't come out according to the books. Kvcty boy who ever did as he did prospered except Iiiiii. - His case is truly remarkable.- It will probably never be accounted for. .Cnambermaldi, Uagoino a Rival. Two gentlemen of high birth, tho one a Spaniard and the other a German, having rendered the Emperor Maximilian the Second many services, they each, for recompense,: de manded his daughter Helena in marriage. The Prince, who entertained equal ris pect for each of them, could not give '(lit preference to cither; and af'er much de lay he'. told, them that, as they had equal claims to his attention and regard, . he could nut-give his definite consent to either of - them to marry, his daughter, and th-it they must, decide it by their own strength and address ; but as; he did not wish to risk the loss of either or both by sufi'ering them to fight with of fensive weapons, he had ordered a large L.-il: to be brought, and he who should be successful enough to put his rival in it, should obtain his daughter. This cxtra ordinary duel; took place in the. presence of the whole Imperial court,-; and 1 lasted nearly an hour. At length the Spaniard yielded, and. the German, the Kuron Tal bcrt, when he hadput his rival into the bog, took hifa on his 'back aodi: placed, him, at the feet of the Emperor, who, oa the following day, gave ;Uie . victor his daughter Helena in marriage.
