Instinct of Insects and Birds.

Let us examine the marvellous instinct
of the solitary wasp in providing for the
worm that will issue from her egg after her
own death. She brings grubs- that,
as wasp she never tasted-and deposits
them over the egg, ready for the iarva she
will never see. The life history of every
insect exhibits instincts Of tins perplexing
description. Look at the instructive char
ac;er of bees in their far-sighted provisions
for the future. Witness the caterpillar,
how at the proper time it selects suitable
situation and spins for itself silken cocoon.
Marvellous instincts are met with outside OF
the insect world; every little bIrd is his
own skillful accoucher. We once observ-
ed the self delivery of the chicken. The
prison wall is not burst in pieces by strug-
giles. By regular series of strokes the
shell is cut in two-chipped round In a
perfect circle some distance from the .ar-
ger end. The bird has special instru-
ment for this work-a hard, sharp horn on
the top of the upper .mandible, which, be-
ing required for NO other purpose, disap-
pears in a few days. Obviously each indi-
vldual bird no more acquires the art OF
breaking its way out than it furnishes IT.
self with the little pIck-hammer used in the
operation; and it is quite clear that bird
could have never escaped from the egg
without this instinct. How were eggs
Matched before birds had acquired the in
stinct to sit upon them? A fowl that
never before willingly shared crumb with
a companion will now starve herself 10
feed her chickens, which, she calls by Ian
guage she never before used-may have
never heari-but which they are born to
understand.

The Sargasso Sea

This is the name given to portion OF
the Atlantic Ocean covered with the sea-
weed, Sargassum. Its boundaries may be
indicated by tracing triangle, OF which
the three corners are represented by the
Azores, the Canaries and Cape de Verd.
Within those limits the sea is clothed on its
surface with garment of vegetable mater
ial, so thick as to re'srd the progress of
vessels sailing through it, Steamers avoid
it because of the fouling of their screws
and paddles by the weed; but ssiling-ves-
sells bound to the West Indies, South Amer
ica, the Cape of Good Hope, ETC., must
pass through 1t. When Columbus, on his
first voyage. had got some distance to the
westward of the Canary Islands, he was
amazed to find his ships in what looked
like meadow. As far as he could see,
the water was covered with q greenish- yel
low plant, as water-IilIes cover a pond.
This was the first time such q thing had
been seen and the sailors were scared. Co.
lumbus could not explain the sight he saw,
nnd might have thought with bis men,
that the weed was the covering of some
dangerous rock which lay short distance
down, ready to tear ana rend them. The
lead was hove but no bottom was found.
The ships kept on their course, and in q
few days, they got clear of the weed.

Learning to Aew.

To be handy with the needle, is one OF the
sterling accomplishments of every educated
woman. To be able to take the stitch In
time" Is worth all the time and trouble
that are required to learn the art. Like
walking, reading, and many other things
which we come 10 do without special
thought, the learning to sew is slow pro-
cess, and should be begun while the child
is still quite young. The girl should not
only have the use of the thread, needless
and patchwork, but be instructed how to
take the stitches, turn the corners, and do
various things connected with needle-w ork.
We are no excluding the boys in our re-
marks, because they need to learn to thread
a needle, and do general sewing. Mer are
many times so situated that they must de-
mend upon themselves for their necessary
sewing. Even if it is an age OF sewing
machines, it is best that all children should
learn to use the simple, common old-fash-
ioned kind, which can never be wholly su-
perseded. The amusement and occupation
that sewing furnishes little folk afford
sufficient reason why all mothers should
see that their girls, and boys too, learn to
sew-but the very practical use OF the
needle in after life is the principal reason,
after all

Calendar for the Boys.

The sports and games of boyhood sue
ceed each other In unerring regularity, al
though 1t is difficult to give any definite
reason why. 1t has occurred to US that a
sporting calendar would be of great service
to the boys:
January: Make snow forts, garrison
them with snow men, slide down hill and
get your feet wet. This takes up all the
month.
February: Go skating, fall into the
danger" holes and get nearly drowned
stay in the house three weeks with sore
throat and fever
March: Fish through rotten ice and run
al the risks possible Get your hawkey
sticks in shape.
April: First week, play pra"tical jokes
TIL you get some mad enough to rick"
you; ''hawkey" and baseball the rest of
the month.
May: Paste up few kites, spilling the
paste all over the CARPET, and try to fy
them; marbles a good deal, hop scotch and
'boIler."
June: A little croquet, not mnch /; get
out your fish poles, go in swimming and
worry your mother out of her senses III
sist on going barefoot; Sunday school PIC
mics; play circus.
July: Tin horns, fire-crackers, hurrah,
blow yourself up, and start in on your long
vacation; a little fooling around in the
sea, picking huckelberries, etc.
August; Up at grandpas playing in
the hay NOW, eating green apples, taking
paragorlc, getting chased by cows-in your
dreams.
September: Marbles again, general trad
ing season of the year, iack-knife swap
ping ''slght unseen"
October: Political campaigning. Drums,
torches, jack o'lanterns, capes, professions,
badges, .'Young America" let loose, set
ting an enthusiastic example to ''old Amer
ica" which is followed.
November: Clappers tambourines,
shows in the woodshed, testing thin ice,
general stuff of turkey, plum pudding and
the natural consequences.
December: Snow ballIng the school
ma'am, breaking window glass, Dragging
about Christmas coming growing be-
cause it served you no better when it did
come.
The above is subject to cyclones Of tag
playing, jumping, leap-frog and tornados
of new and brilliant sports that appear on
the surface for brief time and disappear
as suddenly as they come.

The Demand for Nut

During recent years the trade in foreign
and domestic nuts has developed wonder
fully. New York city has become the most
important centre of the trade, the extent of
which indicates that people bave either Sc
cured patent stomachs, or that indigestion
has lost its terrors. Afnca used to supply
us with peanuts, sending them by ship-loads,
but our Southern states have SO success
fully cultivated this popular nut that We
are now independent. The states that fur
nish the bulk of the supply are Virginia,
North Carolina and Tennessee. During
the past season the crop of Virginia was
/, 100, 900 bushels, of Tennessee, 55, 900
bushels, and OF North Carolina, 120, 1000.
The nut probably the most popular after
the pesnut is the pecan. The Texas pecan
is especially in demand. While few years
ago several barrels of pecans abundantly
supplied the demand, car loads and in
voices of one or two hundred barrels are
now not uncommon.
OF the other nuts the hickory is among
the most popular. While in many locali-
ties, especially in the Eastern states. they
are becoming scarce, in the Western states
they are sufficiently plentiful to ship to
New York half dozen car loads a week
when demanded.
That delicious nut, the chestnut, is be-
coming scarcer every year, and there is
much difficulty in obtaining them sound
and in large quantities. Their great popu-
larity will probably prevent their total dis
appearance, for they are already being cul-
tivated, and it is expected that within
few years the cultivated nut will equal
in quality the high priced Italian chestnuts.
| Black walnuts and butternuts are re-
gsrded as too rich and oily for table use !;
but the former is largely used by confect-
toner's. The American hazel nuts are not
an important article of rmmerce, the i'll
bert largely taking their place. Only a
few English hazel nuts find their way to
the American market. 1t is stated that
growers in California contemplate intro
ducng number of varieties of nuts native
to Spain and Italy.
The trade in foreign nuts Is enormous.
The demand is said to have tripled during
the last five years. As everybody knows
the almond always has been In demand,
and probably always will be. The Eng
lish" walnuts, formerly called Madeira wal
nuts, mainly come from France and SPAN,
the English crop being consumed at home.
They have been successfully raised in the
states on the Pacific coast. The Brazil
nuts are kind of ''linked grease long
drawn out"-a few of them 60 a long way
For cocoanuts the demand is steady and SC
immense that eur dealers feel safe in buy
ing them by the hundred thousand. The
process of dessicating them has widenec
their family use, and they are now favor
ite ingredient of pies, cakes and candies.

A Dutch Victory.

The other day 9 German called on

and said:
"Hullo, where did you get this note ?"

Subduing the Prince of Wales

The late Prince Albert, husband of
Queen Victoria, was noted for character
An incident reveals what sort Of q man he
was and how wisely he governed his family.
Some years ago Miss Hlllyard, the COVER
ness in the royal family, seeing the Prince
Of Wales IN attentive to his studies, ad-
dressed him thus:
'Your royal highness is not minding
your business please look at your BOOK
and learn your lesson"
His royal highness replied that he would
not.
Then said the governess 81 shall put
you in the corner"
His royal highness again replied that he
should not learn his lesson, neither should
he go into any corner, for he was the Prince
of Wales; and, as if 10 show his authority,
he kicked his little foot through pane of
glass.
Surprised at this act of bold defiance,
Miss Hillyard, rising from her seat, said to
him:
Sir. you must learn your lesson, and if
you do not, though you are the Prince of
Wales, l shall put you in the corner"
The threat was OF no avail tine defiance

smptied Of fifteen hundred people in less
than ten minutes in case of necessity. In
this connection it is proper to say that the
folding doors, on the stair leading from the
dress circle TO the psrquette circle on the
Railroad street side, to which objection
has been made, ia no obstruction at all.
The doors are there in order to prevent per.
sons from paying for seat in the dress
circle at the front door and then coming
down the back way into the parquette cir
Gle. They meet in the middle and are not
bolted, being held together only by small
paddock clasping little staple in one Of
the doors. A slight shove with one hand
would burst the doors open, and to crowd
bent upon exit, would be no more OF an
obstruction than tooth pick laid across
the stair. Besides, doorkeeper is con-
stantly on hand at the outer RAILROAD street
entrance, who has the key to the paddock
and throws open the folding doors as soon
as the performance draws to close; and it
is safe to presume that he would do the
same with equal promptness, if the au-
dience should wish to leave the building
for more serious reason than the closing
Of the performance.

full attempts, has at last evaded the United

treaty existing between the United States
government and the Indians, none but
friendly Indians are to be allowed to cross
the line, and the Indians will, no doubt,
seek to enforce their rights under this
