the different elements in this commun-

the Congregational church, after much
preparation, they were subsequently
moved to the Methodist church, csus
ing no little feeling among certain Of
our citizens. We fear the feeling will
work disastrously tosthe success of the
effort. We should strive to bury all
animosities that the greatest good may
be accomplished.

BRIDGE OF SAND,

Something new and interesting about
ants was learned by a florist recently
For a week or SO he had Been bothered
by ants that got into boxes of seeds
which rested on a shelf. To get rid of
the ants he put into execution an old
plan, which was to place a meaty bone
close by, which the ants soon covered,
every n deserving the boxes of. seeds.
As soon as the 0 would become
thickly inhabited by the little creepers
the florist tossed it into a tub of water.
The ants having been washed off, the
bone was put in use as a trap aeain.
Yesterday the florist %bethought himself
that he would save trouble by placing the
bone in the center of a sheet of fly paper.
BELIEVING that the ants would never get
to the bone, but wou get caught on
the sticky fly paper while trying to reach
the food. But the florist was surprised
to find that the ants, discovering the ma
ture of the paper trap, formed a work. u;
force and built a path clear to the bone.
The material for the walk was sand Sc
cured from a little pile lear by. For
hours the ants worked, and when the
path was completed they made their way
over it's dry surface In couples, as i'm a
march, to the bone.
