Another singular development ofinsect
life is that shown by the class known as
fehneum0ns, which deposit their eggs
within those of other insects, being pro.
vide with an oUfpostor which enables
them to pierce the eggs of the other in
sects at the moment they are laying their
own. and thus depositing them inside of
this singularly chosen receptacle. This
does not prevent the original egg from
being duly hltched out; but in time the
unhappy insect that thus comes into ex
istence tinds that it has TO give itself up
to the new life that is gradually develop

A Beautiful Woman.

In a little white house on hillside green,
Lives beautiful woman as ever was seen;
In the sixty five years that she lived, / may
say,
She's been growing more beautiful every day
You do hot believe 1t? Ask Susie, my sitter
She's the very first person that ever had kissed
her,
And if she'd not nursed her by night and by
day,
Poor Sue would have been in a very bad way
can bring other witnesses whom you may
face,
They will tell you the same--they were in the
same case.
"Has she lovers" Yes, surely! No less than
eleven!
She has seven on earth, ami four more up in
heaven.
Her hair is so beautiful-faded and thin,
There are beautiful wrinkles, from forehead
ts chin,
Her eyes are as charming as charming can be,
When she looks DER her glasses SO fondly at
me.
And know by her life, which has beautiful
been,
She Is like 'the kings daughter, fall glori-
ous within"
All, you've guessed who it is! 1t could be no
other,
Pm sure. than my beautiful, darling old
mother.

Planning for Summer Comfort.

Every well regulated house ought tt
have "summer ROOM" as well as
winter room. Select the northeast o.
northwest parlor or sittiDg-rcom, or tfis
coolest apartment in the house; take III
the warm and dusty carpet, cleanse ant
pack it carefully away until autumn
cover the floor with clean, cool mating
danish the stuffed furniture to the
"spare-room" or attic, and suppiant II
with willow or rattan set, If you can
afford 1T, or at least with cane seat and
other summer chairs change likewise
even tie pictures and adornments of the
room to give it new and fresh appear
ance. With plenty of taste and very
little expense one can fit up a summer
room at home (spacious, neat, airy and
attractive) quite equal to the 7x9
chambers that are thought good enough
for summer boariers at the fashionable
resorts!
In tine hot weather, give the room a
thorough ventilation during the night
and until four or five o'clock in the
morning, and then shut the windows and
blinds and keep them resoiutely closed
through the day, and the curtains down.
No amount of shade will keep room
cool if the heated outside air is permitted
to enter freely.
Ifthere is veranda or porch available,
fit up comfortable out of door seats, and
swing hammock in the shade. Two are
better than one, and very good hamm0cks
can now be had for q couple OF dollars.
Screen the kitchen and dining room win
dows, and outside doors with game, to
keep out flies, and put up canopies Or
bars if there are mosquitoes, We have
been surprised, in our summer travels, to
find how few village and farm houses are
protected in this way; all civilized
houses ought to be- a very little money,
reinforced with moderate supply of
gumption, will keep these summer pests
from destroying the comfort OF the house
hold.
If our farmer friends acted on our re-
peated advice last winter, and laid in a
stock of ice, they will have one of the.
greatest of all helps TO hot weather COM
tort. And where it can be bought at
moderate prices nobody should regard it
as luxury, any more than bread, or
q bath tub. Ice, like coal, is q 'fportable
climate" and it should be made the
most of.
Give your minds to it a little, good
friends, and see If you can not surprise
sven yourselves with ysur success in
for summer comforts in the hot
months coming Golden Rule.

"A Novel Brick Kiln.

Stories are common enough of ma

that 1T works perfectly. The kiln is a
little more than one hundred feet long
and is only eight feet broad. Through
