Aboutayear ago Antipater was learning to play the flute, and onexevening he was sitting .on his front steps with his legs crossed and fluting away for all be was worth, when - he happened to glance down and saw 'a sight which surprised him. Just before him, on the walk, a fishworm, as we call them In Betzville, or an angleworm, as they are sometimes called when spoken of at one of Aunt fthinocolura Bettz's swell functions, was standing on its tail, swaying gently , to the sweet .strains of the flute, on which Antipater Antipa-ter was playing "Wheft Johnnie Cornea Marching Home." Antipater had heard of snake charm- -ers, but he had never known that a fishworm could be charmed in the same way, and he was so interested that' he played on until the fishworm was so exhausted with its continued dancing that it fell panting at his feet. And even then, when. Antipater went on with the music, the worm would - bop onto i ia-urttl wijrgl'e a few- Bsc -1 - -Z!rH ' -Zvj a v v it " & m M a rv. , jk i I vz- - v. - - Hi' i ?

For the first twi or three evenings eve-nings nothing happened It took that lon for the carp to thoroughly digest the worm and assimilate it into its being, be-ing, probably, but when the worm he- came really" a part of the carp, the carp felt it. ' The third evening,, as Antipater Phipps, was playing his sad requiem the old carp stuck its' head Out of the water, and rolled its sad, large, eyes, and the tears poured out of them. The next night the carp was si ill more overcome, and when Antipater Anti-pater began to piay It wiggled out of the water and went up and sat on tho lg beside Antipater, and they wept in unison, until Antipater's tears ran down into the flute and made Ai gurgle like a juicy pipe. - Antipater did not know whether hp lovedrthe carp more because it was a soulful carp or because it was the last "resting place, of the dancing worm-he worm-he only knew heloved it. Sometimes he looked upon fhe carp a -a sort of linny graveyard in which the late worm reposed. rand Sometimes, as the poet says. . , w -"The'carplet jair the creeklel'a Wrira Xituntulft parple.t aat-tii jum But he loved the earn more and more Tf's the- tlars wprttv by. arid Bjade It "tits EES' 1 -2?J iror . v 'ii'paninn Of ,-r- lhr !'' .fif niTji rnild ti"'t :t.' a!i-r !u:.l j llmr ! ilnl lm- up to ,n- : 'r.t ri d in Hi.- fa. f..r 'I., and ht r ft wouSJ lm. li ieair, at. i t r. .it! and l l.r..T"iI r mnijij hup ar I !s .nV ii;, tit r'l-, r'l-, it - i r It a. !!....
