Customs of 1fnts

As for ants, some Of their performances
arc absolutely staltling, so closely do
they resemble the customs of human
civilization.
They have armies commanded by Off
GERS, who issue their orders. insist upon
obedience, and, on the march, will not
permit any of the privates TO stray from
the ranks. There ale some ants which
till the ground, weed it, plant the paltic-
ular grain on which they feed, cut it
when ripe, and store il away in their sub.
terranean granaries. There are ants
which are rs arrant shareholders as any
people on earth ever were. They make
systematic raids on the nests of other
ants. carry off the yet unmatched cocoens
and rear them in their own nests TO be
their servants.
There are ants which bury their dead
q fact which was discovered 10y accident.
A lady had been obliged TO Kill some
ants, the bodies OF which lay about on
the ground. Presently single ant
found its dead companions, and eSamin-
ed them and then went off Directly it
returned with 4 number Of others, and
proceeded TO the dead bodies. Four
ants went to each corpse, two lifting it

freshness and health and simplicity in all
his verse; SO that the reader seems to
breathe the odor OF pine woods and to
feel the sunny content Of the New Eng

distnctiyely elegiac. but the pensive

II is manly md robust. and the key that

generous hopes, with sturdy faith in man

that during all his long life he has taken

his tongue ns an orator. From the put.

questions. 10 enlgh,en and 10 warn He
has borne his share OF the responsibility

few men have been more influential. He
has maintained the original American

The most ,renchant articles in his paper

Where Boys Marbles Come From.

Not lar from Salzburg. Austria, is a
great mountain. which consists OF moth
ing but beautiful marble. The stone.m1-
sons cut out blocks and columns Of it,
take them to The great city. and build
palaces and fine houses OF them But
what becomes OF the little pieces which
are broken of, and which are 50 small
that the great people cannot use them
These are for the children Out Of them
are made the little marble balls--playing
marbles. How this Is done let me tell
you From the same mountain several
brooks flow down into the valley below.
Their waters rush down from one shelf
of rocks to another aud form countless
little water falls. BY the side oil these
little falls numerous small mills have
been placed. Ia each of these the water
drives little flying wheel. Under the
barrel OF the wheel is u round grinding
stone. This milestone turns in stone
trough. into which fresh water is con.
,inually splashng. The large bits Of mar
bio are broken with a hammer into rough
angular pieces about as large rs walnuts.
No child would care to play with these
stones; they are sharp eornsred, Jagged
and gray and dusty besides. They are
thrown into the stone mIl.trough with
water. and the mill stones begin TO turn.
Now the angular stones have long
merry dance; they hop and skip aud
stumble oyer one another. and wh!rl
round and round 10 olrclo; they crash
and beat and CRATE upon each other a.!
day and night long At last they become
so small that the millstones 10 the trough
takes no more hold OF them and the little
mill stands still. Then the little stones
are ready. The milestone is li(ted-there
they lie, hundred or more, all together
and one just as pretty as another. They
are perfectly round; all corners and
roughness are gone. The marbles only
need polishing. Then the child gets
them and plays all kinds OF games with
them.
