A Queer Little Pet.

One of the queerest little pets ever
seen is the tame ant belonging to a well
known scientist. This man keeps tribes
of ants in nests which he has made
himself and feeds them with honey or
sugar through a tube that connects
with the nests. One day he saw that
one of the ants kept coming into the
tube to eat up the honey in the glass
bulb at the end. When he took out the
cork that closed the bulb, the insect
came to look for the food, and he Of
fered it some honey on the point of a
needle. The ant shrank back at first,
then drew nearer, feeling about with
it's antenn9, until it reached the needle.
Soon it learned to take the honey off it's
keepers finger, although ants are
among the most timid of living things,
and a new odor or the least movement
outside their nests usually drives these
little insects away.
This ant is now so tame that it quits
the bulb as soon as the cork is remoy.
ed and goes to find the honey on the
scientists finger. When it's meal is
over, it does not try to hurry away,
but waits till its master lifts it on a
bristle and carries it back to its nest.

Matchmaking Letter Cards

Save all pieces of smooth pasteboard
that come into the house if you can
not buy sheet of bristol board for 5
cents and when you think you have
enough to begin cut the board into lit
tie half inch or one inch squares. Put
a letter Of the alphabet on each square,
make at least a dozen Of each letter,
then on rainy days amuse yourselves
by making up short words from these
letters, mixing the cards well and CIV
ing them to another to put together.
This is enough of puzzle to entertain
little ones for long time, not only
those who are learning to spell, but
even those who are further advanced
A box of very good enameled-wa-
terproof-cards not easily spoiled by
handling may be had at toy store
for about 25 cents, but they can be
made in the nursery or workshop for
very much less than this, and the max
ing gives added pleasure to the game.

a PUZZLE IN FIGURES.
uoxv You May Amuse Yourself and
Mvstify Your Friends.


Ask somebody to give you a number
in three figures, anything between 100
and 900. We will suppose that the
number is 246. Then you may say that,
although you are to add four numbers
to this one, two Of which are to be
given to you, it might be as we'll to put
down the total at once, so you put
down 2.244. The first number given to
Won. YOU see, always tells you what the
total is to be, for the total is found
nv subtracting 2 from the number and
writing 2 in front Of it; in other words,
bv subtracting 2 and adding 1000.
Having set down the number 246,
ask for another number in three fig
ures. and set it down under the first.
Saw that number is 345. Now write
under it yourself number that, added
TO it, will make it $685. This, you see
Immediately, is 654. Then ask for a
third number, and you get, say, 1872,
under which you are to set down 267,
because 1872 and 267 mike $685.
Thus you have five mmbers-246, 345,
654, 1872 and 267-whch foot up 2,244,
the total that. you sci down at the be-
ginning of the operation. 1t looks like
a trick, but the explanation is very
simple Perhaps you see it already.
What you have to do is to add twice
900 to the number first given to you,
and twice 500 is 1908 Butsubtracting
2 and adding 1000 are the SINE as add
ing 1898, and there you lave the Sc
| cret.
Of course it takes little study to an
alyze the problem, and for this reason
it always mystifies and anuses those
that are not familiar with i.

Poor Scotch Students,

Many students from their highland
homes have appeared at the beginning
Of the academic year with bag of oat-
meal and a barrel Of potatoes repre-
senting the sole store Of life and energy
for months to come. So common was
this practice that holiday in midyear
was appointed, known as Meale Mon
day, in order to give the students an
opportunity Of returning home to re-
plenish their larder. This day is still
observed as holiday.
In his "reminiscences Of Edinburgh
Robert Chambers tells the story Of his
early experiences at the university
how a friend, his brother and himself
had lived together, and each had
brought to the common store a bag of
oatmeal. The three bags hung from one
of the rafters of their room, and the
landlady would scrupulously take a
handful of the meal from each bag in
order to mix the morning porridge, ac-
cording to a strictly equitable principle
of distribution.
1t must be remembered also that In

A Heavyweight.

The traveller in London about a cen

lowing poster:
Ir. Daniel Lambert Of Leicester,

Weighs upward Of fifty stone.

Mr. Lambert had been keeper Of the
old county bridewell at Leicester and,
despite his physical immensely, was a
very intelligent and active person. A
Kentish innkeeper named Palmer,
weighing only $50 pounds, visited Mr..
Lambert and appears to have been

'Last night in the dear old garden
The naughty winds were at play"
Says mother, "while you were sleeping,
Tuck'd warmly and safe away
"The winds, just as full Of mischief
As-well, some folks know,
Tossing the branches with laughter
And singing now high and now low.
"They pelted each other with flowers
And leaves ere their romping was done,
And mothers favorite apples
They could not leave her one!"
("0h, dear, but the winds are naughty"
Signs Dolly, who's six years old.)
So we pick the apples this morning
From the grass, all rosy and gold.
ooh, I love apples!" cries Mary
In suddenly thoughtful mood.

Seems to me they were kind and good"

HOW to Clean Picture Frames.

The best preparation for cleaning
picture frames and restoring furniture,
especially that somewhat marred or
scratched, Is a mixture Of three parts
of lnseed oil and one part Of spirits of
turpentine. 1t not only covers the dis
figured surface, but restores wood to
its original color, leaving luster upon
the surface. 1t should be applied with
a wooden cloth and then rubbed when

Billy Parker, and Tommy Harris was
at once hidden to get pans or pals OF
anything to make a noise. so Tommy
darted into the house and came PACK
in a minute with tin bucket and sew

ing and clashing that all the mothers
in the block came to their windows TO
see what was the matter. The bees,
too. were dazed by the noise and after
lowering about uncertainty for a short
time settled slowly to the sidewalk.
"They're going to swarm OH the SIDE
walk" said Frank Brace. "Put that
bucket down, bottom up, and maybe
they'll swarm under it"
They did as he said and then stepped
back a little way to see what would
happen.
The bees settled to the sidewalk not
far from the bucket, with a great buzz
ing and fuss, and after some time they
began to crawl under the bucket, at
first one by one, but soon in wide
black stream.
The boys watched delightedly, with
out saying a word, until all the bees
were out of sight. Not sound came
from under the bucket

There is no telling what might have

"Why. boys, what is the matterT
she asked, looking down into the flush

Not a boy had a word to say-not one

"What have you under the bucket?

"Oh," said Miss Ray, chow fine! Die
