Do Ants Talk.

This is question which is aRitating the
mind of a writer in The Natural History
Magazine. He relates that he saw drove
OF, small black ants moving apparently to
new quarters. Every time two met they
put their heads together as though they
were chatting. To investigate the matter
he killed one, ard the eyewitnesses of the
murder FASTENED away and laid their
Aeads together with every ant they met.
The latter immediately turned back and

but as material prosperity increases. and
with it ambition for permanent invest
ments, the way is open for much more def
mite expression of thought in building.
At this stage of development the natural
desire of every citizen to own property OF
the best possible appearance at the lowest
possible cost leads to what may be called
an architecture of pretense-an architecture
intended to appear better than it is. This
architecture, or more properly this method
of building, has, without essential local
characteristics, spread over the entire occu-
MED territory of the west. Ii has met for
wears, and will probably meet for many
more, all the practical requirements, and
has fiattered the crude artistic aspirations
of millions of intelligent and exceptionally
ingenious and prosperous people. 1t must
therefore be considered at present the yer
nacular art of the country. Nowhere else
in the civilized world can be found any
thing resembling it. No people in the
world understands cheap construction and
economical methods of building so well
and is SO inventive in providing for it. "A
thing of beauty is a joy forever" but a
thing of cheap and vulgar ostentation, by a
happy accident of fate, finds speedy obliv-
ion.
A permanent home should be built with
care and planned with special reference to
the wants and necessities of the family.
Let us have permanent homes built in &C,
cordance with the times and of modern
styles. 1t is essential to health that the
homes be in every way ina good sanitary
condition, since the home is where every
body spends the greater part of his or her
life.
