GIANT MODELS OF INSECTS.


They Are Shown In the Anthropological
Building at the Fair.
Back in far corner of the An
thropological building are some en-
larged papier mache models showing a
section of honeycomb. with several
bees, each the size of ones palm. These
may be unlocked and opened like little
boxes and the difference in construc-
ton of the various kinds of bees noted.
For people who are always loudly
shrieking for the equality of all people
this model is great object lesson.
Here is the honey-maker, here the cell
builder. The servant bee is physically
formed for its work. See uthe con-
trivsnce for the pollen gatherer? The
queen bees Larvae are deposited in a
cell differing from the others She.
with her sisters, is fed upon royal food.
The first one that matches of these
possible royalties, realizing that, for
bees or men. no one can serve two
masters, kills the others and reigns
supreme. All these peculiarities of
bee life the models show, for they are
made by celebrated naturalists.
A snail in his spiral house is shown
and can be taken apart, making about
seventy pieces Who would think the
stupid thing had such beautiful organs?

The Strike of a Sex.

The women of Africa are taking on ad-
vanced airs and trying independent ex-
periments that rather outherod the suf-
~fra.ists here. 4. strike has taken place
amCng the women Of the Akona tribe,
unique in plan and definite in purpose.
They protested without avail against the
treatment of the husbands and fathers.
Then they talked it over with the pre-
liminary Of organization, with nc con
stitution and bylaws, and appealed to
another tribe with whom the Akonas
were not on good terms. This tribe
agreed to take in all the dissatisfied
women. and the village awakened the
next morning to find all its women and
girls gone and work at a standstill. The
result was a ready assent TO all that the
women requested and great rejoicing
when the industrial element of the town

The Skulls at Malvern Hill.

Il think the ghastliest sight / ever
saw" said Sheriff Barnes, twas during
the late war on the field of Malvern Hill.
| was in the battle and a more terrific
engagement l never witnessed. But that
is not the exact time to which | refer.
About a year after the battle vas fought
my regiment was ordered out into the
neighborhOOd Of the same old field. We
went over the very same ground, and
there in the open field, exposed to the
torrid sun, were bleaching the bones of
II comrades who fell in that awful en-
gagement. 1t was a sight l shall never
forget. On every side lay a waste Of
skuils-skulls of almost every shape and
siZe-a modern Golgotha.
We could not identify them, however,
and could only gaze with a feeling of
sorrow on the aggregate pile of human
heads that had once been full of life and
feeling. After the deeper emotions eX-
cited by the spectacle had worn away |
thought of the infinite variety of shapes
that were presented by the heap. There
were no two of the same shape or size,
and it was rather a matter of curious
though melancholy interest to inspect
the different skulls as they lay crum-
bling in the sultry atmosphere of that
August ay.'-Atlanta Constitution.

People Who Take OTensa PaSily.

In this world there are a certain class
of individuals who roam about with a
chip on their shoulders, daring others TO
knock it of just for the luxury Of in
dulging in a first class quarrel. To the
gentle hammered, sweet dispositioned
ones this seems a very questionable sort
Of enjoyment, yet 10 some a wordy war
or a full fedged feud constitutes the
chief excitement Of their lives.
These people always have a quarrel on
hand. If it isn't a family affair, then
outsiders must suffer. They are quick
to take o~fense, both in public and
private. and have 40 scruples about ex-
pressing themselves on paper when they
haven't a chance to do SO verbally. 1t Is
this penchant for writing letters that
helps to keep them continually in hot
water, as the black and white characters
are decided evidence against them even
after their anger has had time to cool.
Now, if there were any sense in this
sort Of conduct, there would be some ex-
cuse for it, but there isn't, and, more
over, it makes you doubly unhappy to be
always on the outs with some one. You
may pretend not to care, but you do just
the same, and though pride and temper
keep your spirits up for a time IN your
secret heart you wish you had not been
quite so ready to quarrel.-New York
Commercial Advertiser.

A Connecticut Poet.

There is a movement in Connecticut to
erect a monument to the memory Of the
poet, James Gates Percival. Ee was a
peculiar man and had all Of the poets
idiOsyncrasies. On one occasion he was
invited to meet a number Of gentlemen
in New Haven, who were in their turn
notified that they were to have the pleas
ure of meeting the poet. He was to be,
in fact, the honored guest of the even
ing. They were all on hand, but Per-
cival did not put in an appearance. AL
lowance was made for his utter indifTer-
ence to the passing Of time, and up to
midnight he was expected.
AT last, as morning drew near, deem
ing it certain that the poet had forgot
ten the invitation, the guests went home
and the host put up the bars and went
to bed. At about 9 o'clock in the morn
ing he heard some n at his front door,
went down, asked the object of the call
and found that it was Percival. The as
tonished host let the poet in, and the lat
ter blandly said that he had inferred
from what had been said that there were
to be others present. The host told him
that the others had all gone home. The
poet expressed regret and settled him
self down for a good smoke and talk,
! which kept up, to his hosts embarrass-
ment, till the u rose.-BostOn Tran

Rad Manners In the Use of Words.

The laws of common courtesy hold in
the use of words as we'll as dishes. As
unconsciously as you turn the handle Of
the pitcher in passing it should you turn
the handle of your sentence and present
your thought right side up. You would
not toss the book you are asked for across
the floor and leave your brother to pick
it up. Why toss your answer in similar
hit or miss rudeness?
1t is not rudeness Of manner to which
I refer, but the rudeness Of not making
your sentence at least neat. The most
admirable and affectiOnate Of persons
will fill your ear with a thousand need
less words that do but conceal their
meaning, or make some noncOmmittal
reply which forces you to repeat your
question.
A very large part of the misunder-
standings in life, with ali the sin and
sorrow resultant, is traceable to this
same carelessness, this stupidity, these
inexcusably bad manners. in the use OF
words.-Charlotte P. Stetson in Kate
Fields Washington.

General Vallejo and Fremont.

When the destiny Of the province Of
California hung in the balance, and Eng
land and Russia, as we'll as the United
States, eagerly held out hands for the
prize, General Vallejo unhesitatingly
gave his adherence to the stars and
stripes. Fremont doubted and impris-
oned him, but soon set him free.
One day during that Imprisonment a
young American officer, doubtless a spy
sent by Fremont, rode up to the family
residence in SOnoma, and offering tC
Mrs. Vallejo an English and an Amer,
can flag asked in Spanish, Sonora,
which of these do you prefer"
The lady looked at him a moment as
if to read his purpose; then clasping the
American flag to her bosom she kissed
it's folds and said: This is the flag my
husband has taught me to love. 1t is
the one he wishes to see wave over his
beloved California"
The officer smiled, and bowling grace
fully to all present took his departure.
A lady who stood watching the cOur
teous American as he rode away turned
to Mrs. Vallejo and said, No es Oso'

stomach and the Tongue.

\ bad stomach is a bad thing TO own.
1t is the source of all the badness in the
world, an able member Of the Social
Purify society declares. Drug shops are
full Of stuffs. For good digestion many
Of them are best let alone. Fruit salts
and old fashioned salts are not harmful.
Then there are fgs-always worth their
weight i'll gold-and tamarinds from In
dia are fine. They come in tinfoil, like
many of the oriental fruits, and are sold
by fruiterers at so or 60 cents a pound.
