Do Ant. Tn,k9

] one day saw droveof the small
black ants moving, perhaps to better
quarters. The dlrtgnce was some ITO
yards. Most all which came from the
old home carried some Of the household
goods. Some had eggs, soinevhad what
may have ariswered for their bacon or
mBat; someihad one thing and some an
other. / sat and watched them closely
for over an hour. / noticed that every
time two met In the way they would
hold their heads close together as If
greeting sone another, and no matter.
how often the meeting took place this
same thing occurred, as though a short
chatwere Heccssary.
To prove more about it, killed one
who was onslais way. Others being eye
witnesses to tho murder, went with
speed, and with every ant they met this
talking took place as before. But in
stead of apleasant greeting, it was sad
newsitlloy hadsto communicate know
twas sad news, for every ant that these
parties lnet,hastily turned back and fed
on another course, as much as to say,
"For the kings sake and for your safety
do not go there, for / have seen mon
ster Just behind that Is able to destroy
us all at one blow. I saw him kill one
of.oursfainily. lido not know how many
more are ldlled." So tho news spread,
snd it was true. How was the news
communicated il net by speech.--Maga-

Men Are Not tnserestinr rnvnrias.


Women take only too kindly to the
role Of an invalid; the sofa, the feecy
white shawl, the little cups Of beef tea
or plates of oysters. Once let o woman
taste the dreamy pleasures Of this sort
of existence. and unless come shock or
sense of duty rouses her she will calmly
continue for the rest Of her days in the
pleasant path before her. She smiles
sweetly at the little attentions offered
her, she dresses Ia the daintiest Of semi
toilets, and she looks so pretty and gen.
tie and patient that It seldom dnwns ON
her husband that the existence is an ig-
noble one. But lot my lord fall Ill, and,
oh, dear, what different tale to tell
The valet comes flying from the room
followed by boot, the cook gives notice
because the master called the beef tea
''beastly stuff, /" the housemaid is in tears
because she is not allowed to sweep or
dust the sickroom. Man, noble man, is
a pitiful object when he is sick Get
him thoroughly i'll and he Is better pa
tient than woman, but if he is merely
laid up for day OF two with cold on a
bilious attack he persistentiy kicks in
stead of wisely enjoying the rest which a
benefcent nature has imposed on him. =

Hov Iooo acta.

Loco is often called ''crazy weed
from its direful effect on cattle or horses
when they eat It in any quantity. In the
beginning the poison islslow in showing
