Queer Work of Wasps.

AT Amer Mills, near Clonmel, the
gardener lately found strange looking
object suspended from slender branch
of an apple tree. 1t was nearly spheri-
CAL about as large as an ordinary sized
cannon ball, and was sreaked all over
w. tn the brightest colors. He soon dis.
covered that it was a wasp's nest, but
for some time was puzzled to account
for its varied tints and singular forma-
ton. At length the problem was solved.
His employer had some time before pro-
cured quantity of long paper shavings
of different colors-red, blue, green, vel
low, and white-which he hung over his
straw berry beds to protect the fruit from
the attack of birds and insects.
A colony Of wasps instead of being
warned off, " made frequent visits to
these colored streamers, and with singu-
lar ingenuity, reducing the paper to
pulp soon carried it away for the con-
struction of their nest, which quickly
grew under the united efforts of quite
an army of these busy little artists.
The most wonderful part of their work
is the regularity of the undulating lines
of colors as they were carried round
from side to side.

ten a thrltinI adventure in real life
happen, in tie midst of civil zed sur.

According to the newspapers of ST.
L. is and Kansas City, MIR. George
Ia Tor, who is a. oNore ), messenger on
tn Chicago and Alton Railroad, did not
need to go into tJe Rocky Mountains in
order to have 4 desp rae combat with a
wildcat. In fact, he lad it on the very
tx ross car on which he da ly travels be-
cWcen ST. Loui, and Kansas CITY.
Onc lit ..ot long ago, as Mr. Taylor
was at hs post in the car, which was
then flying along at the rate of thirty
fly" miles an hour, he was startled to
SCI that wildcat, contaiue | in Il cage
which was one of hi, express packages,
had escaped from its prison and was
about t" leap upon him
H. would perhaps have been glad to
escape from the car being entirely with
out weapons, iut the Car door was locked
and he could not get it open. The Wild
cat leaped upon him, scratching and
biting him severely. though he fought
rs desperately as possible with his hands
to get the mastery of the animal
h 'atn@ the cat off for a moment the
messenger seized a lorga piece of pack
ing cloth which he saw lying in a corner,
and placed it in front of his face, like a
sort of screen.
The wildcat jumped again, but en-
tangled his claws in the mass of cloth
which Taylor held before him. Quick
as Il flash the man w pped around the
cat the outspread edg,, of the cloth, and
in moment had t,e creature securely
folded up within it,
Then he jumped upon itwith his boots
and with a series OF we'll directed blows
soon rendered the " ildcat insensible and

Under the name of the Independent
State of Congo, its government was or
gained after the most approved methods
of Belgian administration, and it entered

There is within its area, which is thirty

number of natives within its borders is
10000, 600; and in the whole Congo basin
is estimated at about 100000 Africa
is about three times the area of Europe,

A Paste which viii Stick Anything

a paste which will stick anything is
said by Professor Winchell to be made
as follows: Take two ounces of clear
gum arabic, II ounces of fine starch, and
half an ounce of white sugar Dissolve
the gum arabic in as much water as the
laundress would use for the quantity of
starch indicated. Mix the starch and
sugar with the mucilage. Then cook
the mixture in a vessel suspended in
boiling water until the starch becomes
clear. The cement should be as thick as
tar and kept SO. 1t can be kept from
sroilng by the addition of camphor or
q little oil of cloves.

Advice to Young Girls.

If you we're were to write a letter to a
nan friend, d MT put il black and white
that you are his forever, or that you
$ nd great deal of love- even if it
be only in j ST, but remain either his
very cordially" or very sincerely
Sincerity and cordaIity are possible en-
with acquaintauces that do not demand
either love or an affection that is to last
forever. l wish girls knew how very
i'll bred it is to give or permit familiar
tiles in word or zen from either men or
women. Learn to keep your personal
affairs to yourself. Learn to believe
that your fist name can OILY be used by
those connected with you by the ties of
blood, or having the right given by deep
love. Believe me, you will never regret
your self respect as shown in this way,
and you will never cease lamenting per-
hitting too familiar intercourse, that
in the future will rise up before you like
a skeleton at feast. a perfect friend
ship is like rose: after the time of its
glory i pass d the leaves may be thrown
into a jar, covered with spices and salt
to bring out the fragrance forever, and
be a delight to you wherever it is. A
friendship that is too familiar may also
be likeued to a rose, but one that early
loses its leaves; they fall upon the ground
and no one treasures them enough to
gather them up and keep them as me-
mento Of days that have gone by. For
a while there is a sickIy sweet SMELL
and then they are blackened and discol-
ored, and no odor comes from them.
Conclude, tlen, in forming your friend
ships, to make those only that can, when
time separates you two, make a pleasant
memory for the future, and one that
will not cause a blush to come upon your
face -[LadieS' II mo .JOurnal

RespeCt for A Ge.

Proverbs and sage advice for the young
are perhaps common enough. Counsel
to the aged is not so frequent, doubtless
because it is not supposed to be 50 much
needed.
Here, however, is a very wise and
witty bit of advice to those who are
growing old, uttered by French phi
losopher:
always respect gray hairs-above
all when they are on your own head.

We are assured, on what seems good
authority, that the project of importing
kangaroos into this country is seriously
entertained by several enthusiastic and
wealthy sportsmen of the West The
animals have been successfully accli-
mated in England and France, and we are
assured that there is no reason why they
should not thrive here. The practical
extinction of the buffalo has left the
plains without any Zig game Of impor-
lance, and experienced sportsmen de-
clare that hunting the kangaroo, as
practicpd III Australia, is second in eX-
element and interest only to killing the
buffalo. The scheme is not without
commercial importance. Kangaroo
leather is very valuable product and
the animals breed rapidly. The promot-
ers hope to be privileged to introduce
the new game at the beginning of the
warm seas n in the Yellowstone Park,
and to insure them for few years Gov
crnment protection and immunity from
s. useless spor,smen.- Helena lndepend-
