The Bride tO-be Backed Out.
a correspondent Of the Salisbury
Herald writes to that paper under
recent date:
We had quite a sensational incident
here yesterday in the matrimonial line.
The circumstances in the case are
about as follows: About six or seven
years ago Miss Laura Van Hook, Of
this place, and Mr.. Pearce, of James
town, South Dakota, got up 4 cores
pondence through a matrimonial paper.
They have kept up correspondence
ever since, which ripened into love.
He paid her visit about year ago.
The wedding was to have come off
yesterday. The prospective groom put
in his appearance Monday and made
all the arrangements with his intended
bride. They were to marry yesterday
at 9 O'Clock and leave on the North
bound train at lO:4O for their n orthern
home. The would-be groom went to
Reidsville Wednesday and procured a
license and at the appointed hour yes
terday he put in his appearance with
the Rev. Mr.. Ware, Of Reidsville, to
perform the ceremony. Miss Van
Hook had her trunks packed and was
dressed and ready for the ceremony to
be performed, but when the time came
she backed out-refused to marry him
He tried to persuade her, but it was
all in vain, for she still refused. At
1910 the would-be groom took the
North bound train for his home in
South Dakota, a sadder but wiser man

The Obvious Fact of Communication

The Obvious Fact OF Commun leatIon Re-
tween the Insects
II is no longer necessary TO prove the
existence Of language among insects,
What is now of interest is TO find out,
IL we can, the extent and limits of their
language, and the ideas and differences
10 which IL gives rise. II Is still n ques.
ton however, in what way communi-
cation is opened and kept up Ii II by
rubbing the antennm together The
movements OF the insects make this
seem reasonable, yet professor in nat.
ural history in Prussia recently stated
that ants are provided with n sound
ing apparatus resembling that Of the
wasp, by means of which faint sounds
suited to the ears of ants are produced.
This remains TO be proved.
How is it that these small creatures
can venture far from the nest, distances
that are relatively enormous, .and never
hesitate about the road TO take when
they wish TO retrace their steps2
Learned men who have studied the
matter attribute the power to tho
formic acid given out by the insect as II
travels, so that IL finds it's way in ex-
actly the same way that fox or q dog
does

lowed an ant for a long time. She was
far from the ant-hill, and seemed TO
have no intention OF soon returning.
"ln the middle OF the path she came
upon the dead body Of a good-sized
snail She first walked all around H.,
then climbed upon the ugly creatures
back, crawled all over II, and after
this thorough examination, instead OF
going on, Immediately returned 10 the
nest
"Whcn halfway home she met one
Of her companions In an Instant they
had touched or rubbed antennm with
great animation, and she was pursuing
her course. The same performance
took place when she met a second and
third, and as soon as she had left
them they quichly turned toward the
spot wheus the snail lay.
"The drst ant soon entered the nest,
and lost sight OF her; but doubtless
she continued her work Of informing
and exciting the rest, for long line Of
ants Immediately came out and sci
forth for the prey. Ten minutes after

tain that it really causes the hair to
split.
It is pleasing to be able to say that
bleaching the hair has almost become a
past fashion The woman who has given
an artificial color to her hair regrets it
in time. 1t is generally begun with the
idea that one application Will last a life
time, but when it is discovered that it
is necessary to 'Etouch it up at least
once a week, as the new growth ap-
pears, the constant repetition of the
process soon becomes annoying. Many
women, repenting of the folly of color
ing the hair, have it cut off rather than
risk the glare of daylight on their varie-
gated locks.
Most women have horror of turning
gray, feeling that it indicates the en-
croachment of years. Premature gray
ness is very common and may be attrib-
uted to various cases. Sometimes it is
due to an absence of iron in the blood
1t is common among people of an ane-
mic nature, and sickness often causes
the hair to change. People who suffer
from neuralgia generally show very gray
at the temples, and the fact that hair
suddenly turns gray through fright or
intense worriment has been so positive
ly proved that there is no doubt of its
occurrence. Gray hair IS always beauti
full with young face. New York
