Read it in Her School Books." A SISTER'S HEROISM. The daughter of Mr John Ilier, Freystrop, who sucked the poison from the lips of her baby sister, aged two years, after the child had been bitten by an adder, is a bright and intelligent girl of fifteen years, named Elizabeth Mary Hier. Interviewed last week-end, the little heroine, in answer to a questiou as to how she knew how to act, said" I had read in my school books the right thing to do." Well, it was a brave and sensible thing to do," remarked the Pressman. It was my sister, sir," the girl said simply. Told that she had saved her little sister a great deal of suffering, if not her life, the girl smiled contentedly, and drew the little one to her with a caressing motion. The child, Minnie Ann, is two years old, aud only a slight swelling remains to show that she had been bitten.
