Stitched with ANTS Jaws.

Ants are terrible fighters. They have
very powerful jaws, considering the size
of their bodies, and therefore their
method of fighting is by biting.
They will bite one another and hold
on with powerful grip of their jaws,
even after all their legs have been bitten
off by other ants. Sometimes six or
eight anus will be clinging with death
grip to one another, making peculiar
spectacle, some with leg gone and
some with half of the body gone.
One singular fact is that the grip of
an ants jaw is retained even after the
body has been bitten and nothing but
the head remains. This knowledge is
possessed by certain tribe of Indians
in Brazil, South America, who put the
ants to a very peculiar use.
When an Indian gets q cash cut in his
hand, instead Of having the flesh sewed
together as the physicians do in this
country, he procures five or six large
black ants, and holding their heads
near the cash, they bring their jaws to-
gether in biting the flesh, and thus pull
the two sides Of the cash together.
The Indian pinches off the bodies Of
the ants and leaves their heads clinging
to the flesh, which is held together until
the cash is perfectly healed. Er-

reason, learned that the girl could not
afford q new dress for some special en-
tertainment. Miss Scott generously Of
fered to loan dress, but the offer was
declined The Presidents daughter
was great favorite in the class, and,
calling her mates together a few days
later, she proposed that they all dress
alike on the coming festal day. The
girls readily acceded, and she then
chose the material, which was blue
calico, covered with little white sprigs.
Was not that gentle and considerate
act of girl in her teens?

Traits OF the Shah.

] The Shah is not q young man, he is
some sixty years Old, but he has always
led q temperate and healthy life, de-
lighting in outdoor exercise, great
hunter and good shot, and he, conse-
quently to-day enjoys excellent health,
and is active alike in mind and body.
Notwithstanding a certain severity
Of countenance and manner, the Shah
is Of a very cheerful disposition, and is
quick to note any amusing incident and
laughs heartily thereat He is very re-
served and distant in his intercourse
with officials, either his own or foreign
ers, but such instances as his shaking
hands Unfortunately with the crowd
who suddenly surrounded his carriage
when his special train unexpectedly
stopped in Rugby Station, sufficiently
prove his bonhomie and good nature.
No doubt he is somewhat suspicious.
But he has seldom known disinter-
ested friend, and he is good Judge Of
character, shrewd observer ofmen
and things. His remarks and questions
during his inspection Of our Industrial
establishments were thoroughly prac-
tical and showed a Just appreciation Of
what we're important points for his OBJ
servation. - Nj9seteenth Century.

A DISPATCH form the City of Mexico
states that William B. Richardson, the
young Boston naturalist, has succeeded
in reaching the top of the volcano
Colima. The feat was daring one.
Richardson pitched his tent at the upper
line of pine trees and just below the
lower line of ashes and lava. The
trees above had ali been burned, and it
was impossible to walk in the deep bed
Of ashes. From this point Richardson
and his Indian followers could hear the
sound of air from numerous rents in
the side of the volcano. The Indians
were much terrified, and could be in
duced to remain only by the earnest
persuasion of the naturalist. One night
during the eruption they could dis
tinctly see the deep red glow of melted
lava as it ran down the line, a fiery
stream, bTlrying itself in ashes, trees,
or in beds Of brooks and older beds of
lava. One dense cloud of ashes covered
the party thickly and drove birds lower
down.

Fl. THIyRIER, a workingman, elected
as such to the present Chamber of
Deputies in France, wears all the time
in public the blouse, which is the badge
of laborer in that country. M. Thiv-
rier began work in the coal mines at
Commentary, France, when twelve
years of age, and for twenty years re-
mained in them, handling the pick.
Afteiward he became avine-grower and
dealer in wines. He is socialist, but
not communist, @for having" as a
French paper puts it,, acquired his
capital by his own hard work, he can
not easily understand how that capital
should belong to all the world" !"
Through all his career he has stuck to
his workingman's blouse, and it was
largely upon the strength of that Pc
culiarity that he was elected Deputy.
He is said to be man of unusual in
telligence and good speaker. When
he came to Paris to take his seat his
blouse, which he wore not only at the
chamber, but at receptions and all other
functions which he attended, made him
at once famous.
