What Ants Can Do.

There are good many ants of diff.
ferent varieties on the lot at my coun
try place near.Covington," said a New
Orleane business man, ''aud last year
l began to make Systematic study Of
their habits. found it most fasci-
mating pursuit, and have resumed it
with much enthusiasm during several
visits this year. A little investigation
will convince almost anybody. I think,
that the ant approaches nearer to man
in point Of Intelligence than any Of
the lower animals. Some of the things
l have seen are so marvellous that I
would hesitate to speak of them if
similar wonders had not been fully
recorded by trained scientists. Near
one of my flower beds is q colony Of
small red ants that are extremely in
dustrious in collecting food and they
frequently performed the most aston
ishing engineering feats in transport
ing heavy burdens to their homes. Not
long ago | watched party Of about
dozen that had found the body of a
small spider and were dragging it
toward the nest. The spider had
hairy legs which stuck out in every
direction aud caught on obstacles,
greatly retarding progress. For sew
es:l minutes the ants rolled away with
their awkward booty and then stop
ped and seemed to hold council. A
minute fragment of dry leaf was ly-
ing on the ground; presently they all
laid hold and pulled the spider on top
OF it. They thea seized the edges and
sliding it along without difficulty. On
another occasion I saw large body Of
these same ants start out for raid on
another colony. They marched like
an army, with scouts thrown out at
the sides, and when several feet dis
tant from the nest divided into two
parties. One kept straight on and
was soon engaged in fierce combat
with the other tribe, while the second
detachment made detour and fell
upon the hill from the rear. The re-
suit was great victory for the inva-
ders. Anybody who feels interested
in the subject and will put in little
time at close study will be certain to
witness exploits fully as astonishing
as those I have described" ~. O.

Dr.. w. D. Porter, Of Cincinnati,
who was present as guest, had some
oil which he poured on the waters
that were becoming quite troubled.
Il seems to me. he said, ''that
for the sake Of the patient and tho
profession, the medical practitioner
and the surgeon should work together.
There IS no douh. that in many cases
tho surgeon is not called until the
patient is about dead, and then the
burden is thrown on the surgeon for
not saving the Patieni. This has O
bad effect on the public mind. They
all know about the neighborhood that
the patient is very ill. They watch
the doctor come day after day and see
that the patient erows @erse. Tier
they see the surgeon cpme. Perhaps
the surgeon hs.s an assistant with
him. Then the undertaken comes.
In this way people get an idea that an
operation is very much more dan
gerous thing than it need be, and
when they shon!d Be operated on they
refuse to consent. I should not be
surprised if in time the surgeons will
refuse to take cases in which the doc
tor has nos called them as soon as he
should, refusing for the sake OF their
own reputation and for the reputation
Of their profession

Happiest Class Of People.

In writing of "The Happiest Glass
OF People" in the Woman's Homo
Companion for October John Gilmer
Speed arrives at the following conclu-
sion: 81 have told you who are the
unhappiest men, and now-it is my
pleasant duty to speak Of the happiest
state. Solomon indicated it in his
petition, Give me neither riches nor
poverty There is in that, as in
most Of the proverbs, both definition
and description. Neither riches nor
poverty. I need sa! little moro. We
ell know what the alternative is-that
middle state where the income safely
exceeds the expenditure. Then q
man can be happy-and he have q
good temper and robust digestion
it does not mako much difference what
goes on around him. He is safe, and
for the time being at least his family
is secure. The best thing about this
happiest state is that it has within it
such q tremendously large class. It
is not only man here and there that
belongs within it; the men are legions.
In this country it embraces all of the
great middle class. And the very
great majority Of them do not even.
know that theirs is the happiest state;
they do not dream how well they are
of. Some Of them, being wrong
headed men, envy their richer neigh
bors; some others throw away their
valuable suffciency in the endeavor to
get riches; some others get riohes,,
and then are not as happy as they
were before. Let those who are in
this happiest state continue in it If
they can, for the world at large and
the country. at home has great need
for them. Ther constitute the great
conservative force-the force which.
prevents the Democratic country from
going pell-mell to smash; they repre-
sent the solid honesty which stands
midway between the madness Of too
rapid social reform and the unsuitable
greed Of the unscrnpulous who look.
upon the whole world as. q. gold mine
that belongs to them by right Of
inheritance or purchase. Happy
should be the land where this class is
very: great; and il is greater in the
United States thar anywhere else in
the world ). % , B s. y5l

Training Boys.


Boys must be drained for the farm
as well as for other professions.
Tas Fsason we have 30 Many poer
farmers is simply because boys we're
not trained for the farm. The OLD rule
was, it farmer mad three cons, two
bright and one dull, he would educate
the two bright boys for professions and
would say. "This dull boy ;s net G. sor
anything but farmer" Nov, there
IS where o great mistake has been
made, IS it requires more actual in
telligence and better education to be
successful farmer than for any other
profession. Boys must be tas1Et to
love the farm and farm work. This
can be easily doue, provided that we
can show our boys that farming pays.
AS soon as boys will see that they can
earn more money and have finer cloth es
in other professions they will leave
the farm. It is the duty Of every
farmer to make farming pay-by in.

conditions and especially By practical
euonomy. Farmers should not waste
time, labor or money. This should be
taught to the boys By example. Waste

takes his boys and goes out hunting

care, will want the Time to care scr
them and will want the profits that
come from care. There is no waste SIS

money, because it means labor. II
frequently happens when boys become
OF age chat the father will say: 81
cant afford to pay you much; you
may GO elsewhere" Now, this ia all
wrong. The farmer should 80 manage
bis fasa-sk:as he can afford to give his
boys more salary than they can get in
any other profession. Every farmer
must be wide awake and must show
his boys by example that he is wide
awake. "Make hay while the sun
shines''is farmers proverb; and i,
is far-reaching in its application. II
