A GRAND SONG.

Ia vain men iell US time can alter
Old loves or make old memories falter,
That with the old year the Old years life
closes.
The old dew still falls on the old sweet flowers,
The old sun reyiyes the new-fledged hours,
The old summer reArs the newborn roses.
Much more a Muse that bears upon her
Rhment and wreath and flower Of honor,
Gathered long since andlong since woven,
Fad not or falls as fall the vernAl
Blossoms that bear no fruit eternal,
By summer or winter charred or cloyen.
No time casts down, no time upraises,
such loves, such memories, and such praises
As need no grace Of sun or shower
No saving screen from frost or thunder
10 end and house around and under
The imperirhable and peerless flower.
Old thanks, old thoughts, old aspirations,
Outlive mems lives and lives Of nations,
Dead, but for one thing which survives
The mali, nable and unpriced treasure,
The old joy Of power the old pride Of plea
sure,
That lives in light above mems lives.

"Well, John, what did they do at the

oh, not much. Business dragged .''
Good many there?'
"About the same as usual
"But didn't they do anything about

Yes; committee was appointed to

Poor Mrs. Ellis sighs and wishes she
could know just one thing that some
body said. She tries more direct line
of questioning,
"What did deacon Jones have to
say?'
"OE, the deacan was on the opposite
side, as usual
"Opposite side of what?"
swell, almost anything that was
proposed"
"Can't you tell one thing?" Mrs.
Ellis tone showed little irritation.
John looks at his wife in astonish-
ment. Poor fellow! He thinks he has
answered every single question she has
asked, and what is there to be cross
aboutp
Feeling little rebuked, Mrs. Ellis
says, more gently:
"What was the principal thing that
deacon Jones opposed

Sohn, slowly. "He seemed just about
as much opposed to one thing as an

In silence Mrs. Ellis watched the

The United States Commission which
was organized for the purpose of inves-
tigating the subject of insect ravages in
the West, and of devising a remedy for
the evil, has finished its lleld-labors for
the year.
Among other interesting questions to
be treated of in the report, the migra.
tory habits of the locust will be de-
scrIbed, showing that, like many spe.
cies of birds, these insects journey at
certain fixed seasons southwark, and at
certain other seasons return to the place
of their origin. These mIgrations be-
ing foreseen, steps may be taken to
protect from their ravages the fields
which lie under their line of flight.
Many methods Of accomplishing this
are suggested, some of the most effect
i've of which are the direct fruit of the
researches and experiments made by
this Commission. 1t is shown that the
destructive prOpensities of these pests
SuiJ W Oi"Oiy plOSdupiOuSS DO pldCtl-
cally neutraized. The definite limits,
beyond which the locusts have not VEN
tured, are carefully fixed, and the crops
which are most liable to destruction,
and the best methods of procedure, with
regard to the protection of each, are
specifically given. The insects feed.
ing habits are treated at great
length, and form an interesting feature
of the report. The examination of the
stomachs of more than ninety species
and 800 specimens were made with
special reference to this subject, and
the value hitherto placed on these aids
by entomologists is fully sustained by
the results now arrived at. Among the
discoveries made by the Commission,
those relating to the habits of the silky
mite and Of the blister beetles, will be
of Interest to entomOlogists. The
former is an eight legged creature
which preys on the locust eggs. 1t is
proved to be the mature form OF the
little six. legged mite, which is parasitic
to the locust. OF the larval habits of
the blister beetle nothing has hereto

Sir John Lubbock continued .|S| N NJ
his observations on the habits 4. "
He confirms all that has been '|
their attachment to friends and +
bitter hostility to strangers. Bu1bla
does not have very high opinion Q,
their intelligence. He placed some honey
within narrow circle of glycerIne over
which he threw bridge of paper. The
ants readily crossed to feed on the
honey; but when the bridge was re.
moved the glycerine was an insuper
able obstacle to them, although few
grains of earth would have ma e II. m
crossing. The commencement OF
ants nests is still a mystery. Ants
avoid light, and as to color they prefer
red, and show a marked aversion to blue
or violet. They live sometimes five
years.

A Wonderful Liar.

An Englishman travelling on the
Mississippi told several tough stories
about London thieves. A Cincinnati
chap, named Chase, heard these narra-
tives with short but expressive
humph !" and then remarked that he
thought the Western thieves beat the
London operators all hollow.
"HOw soP" enquired the English
man with surprise. PRAY, sir, have
you lived much in the West?"
"Not a great deal. l undertook to
set up business at Des Moines Rapids
awhile ago, but the rascally people
stole everything | had and finally a
Welsh miner ran off with my wife,"
Gracious!" said the Englishman,
"and have you never heard from her?"
"Never to this day. But that was
not the worst of it,"
"Worst! What could be worse than
stealing mans wifeP"
Stealing the children, should say"
suggested the implacable Chase.
Children"
" Yes. A negro woman who had
none of her own abducted my youngest
daughter and sloped and jined the In
juns."
"Did you see herr"
"See herH Yes, she hadn't ten rods
the start of me, but plunged into the
lake and swan off like duck, and
there wasn't canoe to follow her
with"
The Englishman leaned back in his
chair and called for another mug of
'alf-and-'alf, while Chase smoked his
cigar.
