Getting Rid of Ants.

There are several ways of getting rid
of these pests. Quicklime dropped into
the entrance to their particular haunts
is very effective. All the approaches
should be well scrubbed with boiling
water and strong carbolic, Again,
mixture of camphor, spirits of wine and
boiling water is often considered suft-
cient. 1t is also good thing to moisten
a sponge with equal parts of creosote
and camphor, but the smell of this com
pound is not only generally objection
able, but to some people quite intoler-
able.
The only odorless remedy is to stop
mp all cracks near the infested parts with
putty and plaster Of paris. Even then it
is a necessary precaution to put lump Of
raw meat near the place the ants most
frequent. If the cracks have not been
thoroughly closed, insects will be found
adhering to the meat and can be destroyed
by having boiling water poured over
them. A more Efficient application Of
putty and plaster should then be made.
The same piece Of meat with the edges
cut off can be used again, and the opera
tion repeated until the absence of insects
proves the etfectual stopping up Of their
cracks.

Let it never be forgotten that singing
Is the foundation Of all musical educa-
ton. The pianist who sings is more like
" to be an expressive player. 1t will be
easier for him to transpose; it will be
easier for him to read; it will be easier
for him to comprehend the mysteries Of
harmony, and unless he is a singer, at
least in his imagination, counterpoint
will forever be an insoluble mystery
What interest is there in fugue for
one who does not in his imagination hear
the voices singing in parts? But it is in
spring and sublime when one is playing
a fugue, Bach or Handel, to imagine hun
dreds Of voices singing the parts For
the want of this power Schumann is not
appreciated. His piano music is all yo-
cal. A certain musician who often plays
Schumann remarks that he at times is
almost unable to use his voice after play
ing Schumann for half an hour. In his
imagination lie is singing as many Of the
parts as possible, and while he is not ut
tering sound the muscles Of his throat
are 50 engaged that he actually becomes

GREAT
PAINTINGS.

For centuries brilliant artists
have been painting beautiful pic,
lures, and the best of these pic
lures are carefully preserved by
wealthy people in their mansions,
or by governments and cities in
public buildings. They form the
great attractions to many Of the
old world cities, and can all be
seen only by much travelling and
at great expense.
AS outlined below, a lover of
pictures conceived the idea Of plac-
ing these delights of the eye with

Americn.

The name OF America for the newly dis
covered continent was first proposed in the
little volume put forth at st. Die, in the
Nosges in the year 1907 by Waldzeemul-
ler better known by the Hellenlzed form of
his name, HylacOmylus. Three or four
editions Of this treatise were published at
st, Die before 1907 and few years after
ward an edition without date was printed
at Lyons by Jean de Ia Place. All these
editions are Of extreme rarity, and proba-
bly, that printed at Lyons is the rarest Of
all, though the library Of the British mu-
scum possesses two copies of II. 1t has
never been suggested that any maps were
engraved to accompany either Of the edi-
tions, bat it has always been supposed
that the earliest map with the word
America" marked on the new found
world was the "Typus Orbis," engraved
on wood for the Enarrationes Joannis

further complications are feared. NV report
follows" A telegram froU, Kabara, dated
January 1Ith:-"Navy Ensign Aube who
was left at Kabara in charge of the boats, was
attacked on December 2Sth by a column of

He was killed; also the second mate and IS

dislodged another column IF Tuaregs from

ately on that town, where he now is. All the
hostile columns have been dispersed. The
situation is good. Communications between
Kabara and Timbuctoo have been restored"
1t is believed that there was a scramble
between the naval and military commanders
as to which should first enter 4imbuctoo. and
that Colonel BONNER feels aggrieved. He is
