DR.. L. o. Howard finds that the in
furious kinds include those of liz fam
lilies that feed upon cultivated and use
full plants, and of one family that are
parasitic on warm-blooded animals
Among the beneficial kinds he places
those of seventy-nine families that prey
On other insects, thirty-two families
that act as scavengers, two families
that are useful only as po1len1zers, and
three families that supply food fol
fishes. There are twenty-five families
that contain both injurious and bene-
fetal forms, and forty-nine families OF

Among the wonderful things that
electricity has done, few seem more
remarkable, or more admirable, than
its recent abolition, in a coal mine in
Illinois, of darkness underground. and
its employment at the same time to
replace hand or animal power in haul
ing the coal to the shafts. Trolley
roads far below the surface, and cleo
trio lights rather than Pickering little
lamps on the miners heads or on the
walls of the rooms" in which they
work, constitute indeed a revolution
in mining processes.

"HER COLORS."

On a bright summer day the broad
thoroughfares of a big city were filed
with people, the driveway near the re-
viewing stand was blocked with car
riages and gentle breeze swayed the
tree branches, flowers and dainty
skirts of fair maidens.
1t was the day of days-for John
ny" was to come marching home from
the seat of war. Every mother, wife,
sister, daughter and sweetheart was
there to welcome him
Here and there one saw a black
robed woman and a sad face, depict
ing recent bereavement; yet the crowd
was, On the whole, gay one, and why
not? 1t was a day of days, for the
lads went forth to do or die for the
flag, and the people were determined
to do them honor.
In an open carriage stood a woman,
no longer young, with hungry look
in her eyes like one who had been de-
MED the affection and love Of good
man, yet with determination born Of
pride sufficient to hide her disappoint-
ment from the world.
Her thoughts went back to the days
of 81, when her young playmate and
first lover went at the call of Uncle
Sam"-went as a drummer-boy, never
to return. Although his death was
not reported officially. it was supposed
to have taken place, and whenever the
girl went south she visited Arlington,
the city of the dead, and wondered if
among the thousand unknown" graves
one might not hold the remains of
Ernest Warren.
For years she had striven to over
come the thought that he might some
day return, and when others came to
WOO her (for she was very beautifully
she had been sorely tempted to wed.
John Dalton, chum of Ernest, was
desperately in love with our heroine
Miriam Cleveland-and endeavored in
every way to make her forget her SOL
der boy drummer, but in vain; so he
married and passed for the nonce out
of he, life and almost out Of her mem
CRY.
Many years passed, and Miriam was
still heart and fancy free, with plenty
of this worlds goods Cnherited from
devoted parents long since passed
away. This woman, who would have
made an ideal wife and mother, went
her way quietly. keeping ever sacred
the memory of the boy of 81.
Miriam, after travelling the world
over, had gone out to spend few
months with friends of her family.
and was their guest on this momentous
day.
why SO sad?" asked her hostess.
ooh, no particular reason for feeling
SO. only I've no Johnny in the parade"
WELL" said the host, genial man,
1--WE may find one for you, my dear"
Miriam was patriotic III a high de-
gree, and used often to say satirically,
or sarcastically, according to her list
ener: 81 love the American flag far
better han 1 do some folks, and when
I die it shall be my burial robe" For
such utterances she was called a crank.
Be that as it may, Miriam on this
beautiful morning arrayed herself in
a white cloth gown and jaunty sailor
hat (which, despite her two score
years, was vastly becoming), and went
with a jolly party to welcome the boys
Of '98.
The only touch of color in her cos
tune was a large flag which she car
ried in her hand. 1t was mounted, and
as she stood facing the easterly breeze
its folds were carried across her heart
She seemed wholly unconscious Of the
effect, and little did she know what

Hank! The cannon announces that
the column has started, and all eyes
are strained in the direction Of the
advance guard of small boys and
mounted police.
Miriam for some reason unknown to
her began to experience AN exquisite
feeling, as if some one near and dear
was approaching. and yet there was
none in the regiment in whom she was
personally interested She tried in
vain to put aside the foolish thought
and to recall the return of that other
regiment without her playmate, when
suddenly the gallant colonel wheeled
and saluted the flag which fiuttered
across the heart of this white-robed
earnest-faced woman
Did he note that her hair was a bit
gray; that she was more serious than
any young woman in that crowd? No,
but something about the girl and the
gracious picture she made held his at
tention, and when the boys broke ranks
he sought an Introduction. She was
the only woman In all that crowd to
impress him deeply, or even at all.
