The Boy on the Wasp.

A wasp is a six legged bird that
lives mostly in trees and under the
caves of barns. and you cannot tame
him; he is too busy. Never stroke
his fur the wrong way, for it makes
him mad, and when a wasp is mad 7
don't want nuthin' to do with him
He has what they call ''stinger,"
and when he goes out stingerin'
boys must keep away from him l
leaned up agin one once when he was
busy, and [ jumped much as feet
Ma had to put mud pie on the place.
I hit wasps' nest with stone once,
and the boss wasp chast me clean
acrosst the lot so fast that when l got
over the fence I tore my pants; then
pa he spanked me till I wished had let
the old wasp sting me.
Some say wasps make honey, but if
their honey is as hot as their singer
in | don't want none. Pa says the
stingerin' amt so bad at first as the
rekolekshuns Of it for few days. BE
ought to know, cos me and my bro
ther Ike got on the roof and poked
big nest from the peek down In the
barnyard while pa was milkn'.-Al-

Writer and Actress.

Miss Florence Warden wrote her
celebrated novel, THE House on the
Marsh" while she was filling an en-
gagement at the Haymarket theatre
In London. The book proved a ire
mendous success and she received a
much larger sum from her publishers
than had been agreed upon before its
appearance. Miss Warden then dra-
matted the story and starred for two
years in the leading part and devout-
ed her hours off the stage to writing
other weird and original tales. She
had adopted the stage as profession
simply because she was dependent on
her own efforts for her support At
first she tried the life of governess as
the only path, according to English
precedent and example, open to the
young Englishwoman who must earn
her daily bread, and she found it q
dreary enough round of drudgery to
which starvation seemed preferable.
Her ambition was to write, and the
success of her frst efforts enabled hel
to retire from the stage, and devote
herself entirely to Eteratirs--Currenl

Polluted Ice,

Users of ice must read up on the re-
cent investigations of Kedzie, Pengree
and Prudden, showing that ice taken
from polluted streams is not purified
by freezing. Kedzie tells us that if
taken from streams containing rotting
vegetable matter Or sawdust it will
produce diarrheas. In 1875, at Rye
Beach, an epidemic broke out in a
large hotel, and was traced at last to
ice taken from an adjacent pond. The
water of this pond in summer was foul
and sinking with putrescent matter.
Organic matter, as well as bacteria,
is not eliminated by any ordinary de-
gree of cold. Tt many of our
streams are the recl ents OF sewage
This is the ice aye of civilization,
and we must have it pure.-St. Louls

TRANSPORTATION of Sulphurio Acid.

Herr Bickmann has patented in Ger
