Her Sole Mission,

a great many pretty girls think it is
their sole mission in life to look lovely;
they do not consider that they are bound
to talk or display anything like intclli-
gcncc; so long as they dress in man.
ncr to show their beauty Otto the best
advantage, they are quite satisfied with
themselves. But my dear girls that's
where YOU are mistaken. You may be
very pretty to be seen, and may look just
too charmingly lovely" for any use, as
You lie languidly in your easy chair and
never make the least effort in the world
to entertain your friends, but what tho
world wants is living girl! They like
to look ut you, of course. But bless
your sweet heart, the boys can 90 down
town and buy the prctticst wax doll you
ever looked ut for a dollar and half;
one that can open and shut its eyes quite
as languidly, If not as bcwitchingly. as
you do yours. DO you sec the point.
girlsP You must know how to talk II
you desire to win really regard and
friendship.

Driving Away Red Ants.

Professor Dcidy states that when Id
Purchased his present residents while II
was undergoing repairs, he noticed ID
fragment Of bread LETT by the wbrkmcn
in one Of the second-story rooms swarm4
ing with little rcd ants. Apprclendng
that the house was seriously infested, to
ascertain whether ii was 80 he placed q
piece of sweet cake In every room from
the cellar to the attic, Al noon every
piece was found covered with ants.
Having provided a cup of turpentlne
oil, each piece was picked up with
forccps and the ants tapped Into the
oil. The cake was replaced and in
the evening was found covered with
ants. The same process was gone through
the following two daysmorning, noon
and night,
The third day the number Of ants had
greatly diminished and on the fourth
there were none lie at once concluded
I the ants had Ill been destroyed, but in
'the attics he found few feeding on dead
house-llics, which led him to suppose
that the remainder had become suspi-
cious of sweet cake.
/ He accordingly distributed through
the houso pieces of bacon, which wcrc
afterwards found swarming with ants.
This was repeated with the same result
for several days. when in like manner
with the cake, the ants finally ceased to
visit the bacon,
Pieces of cheese We're next tried with
the same results and mullitudes Of ants.
When the cheese proved no longer att
tractive, recollecting the feast on dead
flies in the attic, dead grasshoppers wcro
supplied from the garden.
These again proved too much for tho
ants and after few days trial neither
grasshoppcrs nor anything else attracted
them. They appear to have been thor
oughly exterminatcd, nor has the house
since been infested with them.
