Oddly in An Eggs.

Some silkworms lay from I 900 to 2, 900
eggs, the wasp 5000, the ant from 5000
to 5000. The number of eggs laid by
the queen bee has long been in dispute
Burmeister says from 5000 to 5000, but
Spence and Kirby both go him several
better, each declaring that the queen of
average fertility will lay not less than
40, 600 and probably as high as 80, 900 in
one season. Termes fatais, the white
ant, is possessed of the most extraordin-
airy egg-laying propensities of any known
creature; she often produces SO, 400
eggs in a single day! From the time
when the white ant begins to lay until
the egg-laying season is over-usually
reckoned by entomologists as an exact
lunar month-she produces $500, 600
eggs. In point of fecundity the white
ant exceeds all other creatures st.

Furnishing a Brutal Prince.

Although The English people are fully
a MILDLY is treated precisely like any other
midshipman, there are obvious reasons
why the English papers have never told a
certain story about the Duke of Edin-
burgh. One night fellow MILDLY who
had just finished his watch. went below
to turn in," and noticed that the Prince
had not turned out, as he should have
done for his own watch. Accordingly, he
tried to rouse his royal highness, who,
after receiving two or three shakings,
suddenly opened his eyes, and let drive
his fist at his felow-middy's right eye.
Il said nothing" so the naval officer
told the story many years later, "but re-
turned to my post, resumed my
watch, and thus did the prince
duty for him. But the next morning |
stated my case and showed my eye.
My comrades held a drumhead court
martial, found my assailant guilty, and
sentenced him to be spanked by me. The
royal culprit was seized by four stout
fellows and held face downward on n
table, and |, with my sleeves rolled up to
the elbow, carried out the sentence Of the
middy's court untilmy OWE hand smarted.
Then he was released, furious with rage
and threading vengeance. But in II day
or two he thought better of it, and came
to me like man and begged my pardon
for the blow he had given me. ac-
cepted his apology and rendered my own
in turn. 1t was good thing for him
after all, for during the rest of the cruise
he put on no airs, but was rs agreeable as
a young fellow could be. | doubt if the
prince ever complained of his treatment
to the officers of the ship. Whether he
did or not, nothing came of it. The
officers probably heard of the affair but
deemed it the best course to let the mat
ter drop. But | venture to think the
prince has never forgotten that spanking.

The rapidity of animal motion is some
times far greater than can be detected by
the human eye. 1t is favorite amuse-
ment of country boys, when they can find
an owl sitting on a stump in II field, to
walk around the bird at a considerable
distance to see him, Twist his head off. T"
AS the observer circles around the crea-
ture seems to follow him by turning his
head and then gives the impression of
moving his head continuously round in
a circle.
As matter of fact, however, as soon
as the owls neck is twisted sufficiently
for comfort, he turns his head suddenly
in another direction, but so quickly that
the eye cannot detect the motion. The
sluggish toad is sometimes quicker in his
motions. The observer will sometimes
notice toad sitting at distance of two
or three inches from n fly. The insect
vanishcs and sometimes the looker-on is
puzzled to tell how or why. The toad
has simply poked out its tongue and
taken the fly, but the action has been so
quickly performed that the eye failed to
detect it. New York News.

ings with him. The incident came to tho
attention of j. b. Hean of Chicago, who
has made study of the various kinds OF
adulteration. He says that the city has
no analyst, and that the swindlers could
be reached only by action on the
part of their victims, who themselves
must collect the evidence and present it
TO the courts. He had discovered that
tea and coffee were adulterated very gen
orally in Chicago. Coffee sold at we'll
known grocery stores turned out TO be
composed of compressed mahogany saw
dust, wheat, rye, peasc, acorns, oak, tan
bark and the baked liver of horses. In
vestigation brought out the fact that old
tea leaves are saved at some of the big
hotels and restaurants and sold to men
who dry them and mix with cheap teas.
Mr.. Hean had found marble dust iii flour,
and declares that hundreds of articles of
food are similarly adulterated. 1.-The
matter of food adulteration," he says,
- has grown to be outrageous. The
cheaper the food the more the adultera-
ton. 1t is the poor people who are the
heaviest sufferers. Men struggling for
life with family on So and so week
are swindled in almost every article of
common food they use, and they have no
protection from the frauds. Many adul-
terations that are used are unfit for hui
man consumption, and yet there are men
who are growing rich in openly selling one
might say, the secrets by which the food
of the poor can be still further adultera-
ted.

Summer Trouble.

The foundation Of many cases Of
lung and kidney disease is laid in
summer. Persons, while perspiring,
expose themselves to draughts, and
before they realize it they become
chilled. The pores Of the skin close,
and the waste matter that the skin
has been throwing Off is retained in
the blood, and the kidneys and lungs
are forced to take care Of it. The re-
suit is that they often break down.
In all such cases take REDS GERMAN
CoUGH AND KIDNEY CURE. This will
arouse the kidneys to action, stimulate
the circulation, and thus open the
pores Of the skin. As soon as this is
done the lungs are relieved Of their
load and the system is restored to a
condition of perfect health. This
great remedy contains no opiate or
other poison, but it is the best thing
for all throat complaints, and for any
malady that attacks the lungs or kid
neys, that was ever offered to the
public. All druggists keep it. 25
