Still Thev Loom Up.

A writer in the Pioneer Press assumes
that Col. Lounsberry will be candidate for
congress, and says he could not possibly be
elected as he has been one of the ''has
beens' in the territory who has outlived his
usefulness. The colonel has been very ac-
tive in the affairs of the territory during
the past sixteen years, doing more than any
other man in q journalistic way to cd vance
its interests. He has been as true as steel
to the interests of the people; true to his
hosts of friends, and true to his convictions.
He has been the target Of his enemies, it is
true, but they opposed him on account of
what he did not rather than on account of
what he did do, and those who have been
his bitterest opponents in the past are today
among his warmest' friends. Col. Louns-
berry can be elected to congress or any
other position he wants. There is no man
in North Dakota today having more or
warmer friends and fewer enemies among
the people.

The Ant.

ltseems queer. doesn't it, TO apply such a
word as dreaded" 10 d little thing like al
ant, but the most wonderful stories are told
Of the destruction it sometimes causes. Ac-
cording to Mr.. Holder, the houses Of the
white ant in Africa are d~ome-shaped mounds
often eighteen feet high.
They erect pyramids one thousand times
higher than themselves. On their travels
for they are inyaders-they SO conceal their
approach that their presence is not suspected
until the damage is done. They usually tun-
n4i into any object which they attack, often
reducing it to a mere shell. In this way they
have been known to ascend within the leg of
q table, deyour the contents OF a box upon it
and descend through a TUNE bored in an
other leg all in one night.
All officer Of the English army, while calling
on some ladies in Ceylon, was startled by a
rumbiimg sound. The ladies started with al
fright and the next instant they stood with
only the sky above them-the roof had fallen
in and lay all about, leaving them miracu-
lousy unharined. Tbs crash Of the fab was
heard all over the city. The ants had made
their way up through the beams, following
them out until "a great part OF the framework
Of the house WIS ready to fall at the slightest
tOuch.

Educated Horses.

Doubtless most Of you think when you see
the performances OF trained horses thata
great advance has been made in educating
the animals over what was lone in ancient
tines. But you are mistaken, for even the
most wonderful exploits Of the horses Of the
present dayare ~repedtions OF what was done
with them several hundred years ago.
IL those days horses not only danced upon
their hind-legs. but fought mock battles,
striking at their enemies with their ~iorefee',
and showing What appeared TO be remarks
bic intelligence. Perhaps the most surpris-
ing Leaf ever performed by a horse was in
the olden time. Alarge three-sided braided
rope Was stretched several feet from the
ground, and upon this the horse walked,
preserving its balance perfectly. In an Old
print a pictur e Of the act is shown, while an
other cut represents a horse striking the
shield OF q soldier with lis boot.
Even the elephant generally considered
the most ungainly Of animals. Was trained in
those days to walk the tiglt-rope, not only
pear the ground, but, If We may believe the
old writers, it trayersed ropes swung above
the heads OF the audience, and not only pre-
served its balance, but bore a man upon its
hack

4 curiou museum has just been opened at
Dresden. In it are collected a number Of
boots, shoes and slippers in which emperor,
kings, queens, princes and other august or
aInous persons have some time or other
trodden the patti through life. Among them
are a pair Of boots worn by Napoleon |. at
the battle If Dresden, on April q, 1918, and
a pair Of white satin shoes, embroidered in
gold, which the same great emperor wore on
the dag Of his coronation; another pair Of
strong leather boots which belonged to the
famous French marshal, Murat, afterward
king of the Two Sicilies; a pair of high
heeled boots Of Maria Theresa; boots Of the
philosopher Kant, and many others, forming

museum have any energy they will not find it
difficult 10 increase their curious collection
considerably and to make it one of The sights
of Dresden. Dut they must search both high
ways and byways for their treasures; thus
tor instance, they might perhaps obtain an
interesting article from the good nuns at

Burn Dry Wood.

A certain amount Of undried ID will
raise from the freezing to the boiling pom
twenty-seven pounds Of water; hen dried

six pounds Of water. Hence drying the
wood increases its heating power one-third.
When there is moisture either IN the wood or
on it, II is converted into vapor AT AN ex-
pense Of heat. The moisture also prevents
tho ready combination Of the oxygen with
the carbon, and rs Il result more carbon il

or dry. This is in part owing 20 tho watery

By four inches. are SET sixteen inches from

with the joints well Tapped. This i furred
out with strips two by two inches, which are
also covered by building paper, and drop sid

nesses each Of building paper and dressed
lumber, and two dead air spaces, masking the
house very cool in summer, and nearly frost
proof in winter.
The main room is eeiled with dressed and

tor at each end. This may be made By cut
ting holes sixteen inches square through the
ceiling and roof, over which are set light
frames two feet above the root, covered with

plan. The floors slope from front and rear
10 the gutter, which runs transversely across
the building and empties into a covered drain
outside, carrying ava all the water used in
washing the floors, etc. The engine is of
three horsepower, with four horsepower
boiler. Il would have been better to have
plaeed the engine in n separate building,
which could have been built very shapely in
the rear Of the main building, but this can be
remedied hereafter, when more room IS
needed.

extending down to within two feet Of high
