Indian Relics IN Maine.

Every little while farmers and others
in the up-river towns of'Maine unearth
interesting relics of the ancient Tar
ratine or PenobscOt tribe OF Indians,
who, in their day, were very numerous
and warlike. The latest discovery OF
this sort was made few days ago in
the town of Lowell. Three men who
were ligging sand on an old road came
to a peculiar reddish spot, in which
they found three sharp stone chisels
and a stone gouge. All four OF the
implements lay pointing one way. hav-
ing, evidently, been purposely placed
In that manner. j he spot was I'M
doubtedly the burial place OF one OF
the warriors of the tribe, whose primi-
tive weapons were inferred with his
BODY, as was the red mans custom.
There is point of land opposite Mat
tawamkeag, on the Penobsc0t. where
countless stone axes and sptarheadl
have been found, and it is said by those
| we'll versed in Indian history that on
this spot the Tarrantines OF old fought
a great battle with their natural enc
mics, the Mohawks, utterly routing the
latter and thus ending a long series o
wars for the mastery of the hunting
grounds of the Pennhscot N y. Sun

What Insects Are Good For.

How would you like to have insects
for food? In Africa people eat ants
we'll stewed in butter. In Sweden they
put them with rye, to give flavor IKE
brandy. Pressed ants eggs make
mixture very much like chocalate
paste with milk. They taste like cara
mels, that you buy so often at the can
DIV store. Think of that!
The large white ants, or termltes'
are roasted, too, in iron pots, by the
African children. They are eaten Dy
handfuls Just like sugar-plums, ana
thew are said to taste like sweet al
mond paste.
AS for the locusts that we should run
away from, they think it is just SO mucn
bread and butter. They smoke and
boil, or salt and stew them. Some
times they grind them into q sort O.
meal, and get fat in eating the bread
made out of it.
In New California there is q spider
nearly an inch long, that is roasted
over the fire as a very choice bit. Ih'
eggs of a sort of boat-fy the Mexican
shake in a kind of cloth, set them t
dry, and grind them like flour. The
sell in sacks, to make a peculiar kline
of cake. These eggs, unground' ar
used, too, for the feeding OF chickens
How would you like such foodF al
afraid not very we'll! But the childre
of these PARKWAY countries learn
like these insects as much as 20
would a piece of roast beef.-Mrs.
Hall. in our Little Ones.
