SllngIcss IIonny Bees.

In many parts OF South America, but
more particularly where the ant bear
ranges, there are industrious honey bees
without stings. They usually take pos
session OF hollow trees, III which they
construct rows Of wax cups. nearly tho
size of half an cggshell. When full Of
honey, they are capped over to exclude
mir, which preserves the contents in a
fluid state. When one pot is finished,
tkey proceed with another, and thus
store up an immense amount Of delicious
food, of which they invariably robbed
without the power of Offering resistance.
at the cxact season when ants eggs
are deposited nature has so arranged It
that the ant bear, which subsists almost
entirely on ants, avoids those hard clay
pyramids, the massive homes Of those in
genious insects, climbs the bee trees, aud
thrusting in its long whiplash tongue,
feeds suptuously on honey till the new
crop Of ants are grown large enough fol
food. Just us the honey is exhausted
their wants are amply provided for.
Thus alternately animal md vegetable
aliment is secured by an llnllteraDle law
SO that ants are kept within control III
one direction, never becoming sufficient
ly numerous to destroy the scource from
whence their own necessary food is de-
rived.
Thus the race of ant bears are stts
tained during particular period neces'
saIy for tho preservation OF the race oi
ants-and the poor bees are instrumcn.
talities for sustaining the law without
any apparent compensation for their un.
ceasing labor, beyond the privilege Of
slipping nectar from the flowers and en-
jOying unrestrained liberty on the wing.
Who does not discover in the forego'
ing relation, an exact reference Of means
to ends It is au illustration OF the ad.
mirablc adjustment of cause aud effect,
which secures the pOrpctuity Of species,
and demonstrates beyond question, the
existence Of an omnisciont Law Muker -
because such laws do not make them
selves.

Tales Of Toads.

Geo. NJ. Mead states his experience
with toads in the Ohio Farmer. Unless
their skin is broken they are perfectly
harmless, They will eat any bug but
the potato bug, In Pittsiield, Mass, l
had an uncle, one OF the finest gardeners
in tho town, and he, to the no little
amusement of friends, used to pick up
those yenomous toads in Lis hands,
whenever he could find nice fat ones.
carry them home and put them in his
garden to catch the bugs md worms.
He said to me one day: "They will
become quite tame If you pet them n
little" thought that little singular,
but concluded to try 1t. When went
home I found one in the shed close to
the kitchen and commenced, At first |
caught bug or fly and stood as far off
rs could and dropped it down in front
Of my pet. I did not have long to wait,
for the bug had hardly dropped before
1t disappeared, Each day went to sec
and feed him, and went up closer, until
he got so tame that he would at any
time take n bug or fly ont Of my fingers.

seem to wait for me to come and see

DR.. Harris said twenty years ago that
he supposed the odor of the squash bug
(corcS Tristis) would protect it from
the toad and 10 test the matter he u,
fered one to n graye-looling Bufo under
cabbage. He seized it eagerly, but
spit it out instantly, reared up on his
hind legs aud put his front feet on the
top OF his head for IN instant, rs il in
pain, and then disappeared across the
garden in Il series of the greatest leaps
a toad ever made. Perhaps the bug bit
the bitter. Not satisfied with this, DR..
II. hunted up another toad, which lived
under the piazza, and always summed
himself in one place in tho grass, and
offered him a squash bug, which he took
and swallowed, winking in very satisa-
ed manner. Twenty other fine bugs fol.
lowed the first, in few moments, with
no difficulty or hesitation in the taking
