OF this communication has been re-

does seem as il the lack of even an ele-

touched upon is almust universal, not
only among the masses, but also among
those whose positions in the business
world should teach them differently.
And, in view Of this condition, it is
to be regretted that the curricula of
our educational institutions have not
included course of instruction in
this branch Of political economy. II

of weights and measures, and its prin-

of trade and commerce have made stan

Wonderful Manner IN which the Mother

Chautauquan.
The wasp is not vegetarian like the
bee, and our ement-maker has before
her the problem Of supporting her
Young with meat, rather than with
bread. As her eggs are laid out in hot
weather, and as enough food must be
stored in the cell with tho egg to
mature the young insect, the question
IS how to preserve the meat fresh for SO
long a time. She meets the difficulty
thus: After q tube is finished except
at one end. which is left open, she hies
off on hunt for spiders. She finds a
fat. healthy one, pounces upon IT,
stings it and carries off and places 1T
in the mud cell. She repeats this pro-
cess until she has placed as many
spiders in the tube as, according to her
Judgment, will be needed. She then
lays an egg in the cell and walls up the
opening.
| Torrance is the magic effect OF her
sting. Whether it Is the result OF a
subtle poison or whether II is special
SPOT In the SPIDERS nervous system
where the sting Is inserted we do not
know. Certain 1T Is, that after being
thus stung the spider lives on in a

1 months. 1t can move only slightly,
and romans helpless in its mud sepul-
chre until the wasp egg matches into
voracious grub, which at once falls to
and eats with great relish the meat
thus miraoulously preserved.
Whether tho wasp sting renders .tht
spider insonsible to pain or not is
question not yet settled. However, thu
chances are in favor Of the theory tina
it does. Anyway, we need waste NJ
sympathy on the spider, the most blood
thirsty OF all the little people OF Thu
fields and woods. There is sense O
retributive justice in the thought OF |
spider helpless and at the mercy OF |
small insect which it would have merci
lessly deyoured had it been able.
So we need not accuse our alert, in

How 1t sleeps, in trance delighted,
How it looms in liquid shining,

Bid the ash renew its beauty,
Sparkle, flash and glow, till duty,
Through the comfort Of the hour,
Wooes our soul,
And we deem its sterner dover
Life's best goal.
So we dream not visionary.

Round the hearth Of home we gather,

Such dishes as beef or veal olives
are attractive and palatable. Sufficient
meat for them may be purchased for q
single meal: in fact, this is true of all
stews; hut broils and roasts are not
good when small. Beef olives are
strips of thin round STEAK with small
piece of suet or bacon rolled and tied
within. They are first Drowned in a
little suet, and then stewed slowly
until tender-apout one hour-in a

tablespoonful of flour to the fat IN
which they were Drowned. After mix
ing, add pint of hot water and a

"Women often send messages TO their

bit of cloth, ribbon or lace as samples.
This makes the card unavailable, SO it
is always sent to the dead-letter office
and Invariably destroyed. Men-pre
sumably men-not infrequently paste a
clever joke or telling political frag-
ment upon postal and send it to a
friend-at least, start it; but it never
arrives. Nothing may be attached to
