Waiting Years For Ones Fay.

Legal delays are as nothing to the delays
of publishers. If the publisher pays on the
acceptance Of n manuscript, the author does
not care so much, though he naturally
wishes to see his book in the shop windows
and have his friends congratulate him. But
the author who sells magazine articles or a
novel that is TO be paid for on publication
occasionally resigns all hope of living to
see it in print One firm in New York hes
owed q writer for an article over ii years,
and another firm has not yet paid for a
book that was ordered and the manuscript
delivered five years ago In Europe the
courts have decided that an author is en-
titled to his money during life, and that
two years is long enough to wait for it,

Sir Boyle Roche.

In every account of the Irish parliament
Sir Boyle Roche comes in with the persist
ency of King Charles head in Mr.. Dick 8
memorial His bird" is as we'll known as
the phoenix, and bills fair to share its i'm
mortality.
Sure Mr.. Speaker" said Sir Boyle on
the occasion that has made him famous,
chow could man be in two places at once
unless he were q birdS
But Sir Boyle is not mere creation of
legend. He was real living man, fine,
bluff. soldierlike old gentleman, holding
some post at the viceregal court, sitting for
a government borough and always voting
faithfully for the castle" The debate OLE
night was on sinecures, which Curran had
Indignantly denounced, and twitted by one
of the opposite side on some personal incon-
sistency in the matter he replied hotly:
.'Sir, l am the guardian of my own
honor
To which Sir Boyle neatly rejoined:
Then the gentleman himself has got a
very pretty sinecure. All the Year Round.

People With a Low Sense of DUTY,

A low sense of duty is essentially vulgar.
The people who look upon pleasure and
selfish indulgence as beyond the sterner law
and higher standard of duty people
who are vulgar at the core. no matter what
their outside bearing or conventionalized
grace. These are the people who ridicule
all idea of that higher law and maintain
the impracticability of those councils of
perfection at which ought at least to
aim. Self interest with them ranks before
justice to Others and to keep a promise to
their own hurt strikes them as about the
most ridiculous bit of QuiXotism possible.
There is no good in going to these vulgar
souls when your own is oppressed with the
sense of weakness in the face of nobler
duty. They will counsel you to take your
ease on the lower levels, and they will aT>
que against that endeavor of yours to
mount and soar upward into the purer re-
gions of faithful but in a sense an alb
stract duty. Consult them not lest you,
too, be dragged down into their vulgar g.
innate of self before the right.-London

Tho Life of the Ichneumon Fly.

A writer gives On interesting account OF
the curious habits of the ichneumon fly of
Ceylon, the natural enemy of the spider.
This insect is green in color and in form
resembles wasp with marvelously thin
waist. 1t makes its nest of well worked
clay, and then goes out ON q hunting eXpe-
dition. Its victims are invariably spiders
of various kinds, but all are subject to the
same mode of treatment. y scientific
sting injects some poison which effectually
paralyzes the luckless spider, who is then
carried off to the nest and there fastened
with n dab of moist clay.
Another and another victim Is brought to
this chamber of horrors. Then the preset
ent mother ichneumon fly proceeds to de-
post her eggs, one in the body of each spi-
der, which can just move its legs in vague,
aimless manner, but can offer no resistance.
This done, the fly returns to her work as a
mason. She prepares more clay and builds
up the entrance to this CHASTITY cell. Then
she commences a new cell, which she fur
nishes in like manner and closes. Then she
adds yet another cell, and so proceeds until
her store of eggs are all provided for, and,
her task in life being accomplished, she
dies leaving her evil brood to hatch at lei
sure
In due time these horrid little maggots
come to life and find themselves Graded In
n lar,ler of fresh meat. Each poor spider is
still alive, and his juices afford nutriment
for the ichneumon grub, till it Is ready 10
pass into its chrysalis stage, thence to
emerge as q winged fly, fully prepared TO
carry out the traditions OF its ancestors
with regard to spiders and to fulfill the
purpose for which they have been created,
according to ichneumon belief.-Lelsure
