he sat down opposite me.

FOR LITTLE FOLKS.
Tanned an Ant.

Father Wasmann is German Jes-
uit priest who takes a great interest
in insects of every sort and is recog-
nized as an authority on their habits.
Among others of his fancieS he keeps
many different tribes of ants IN arti-
fetal nests. To these is connected a
feeding tube terminating in glass
bulb closed by a cork. Into this tube.
he remarked, one of the insects came
regularly. 1t was easy to recognize it
to be always the same, as it was par
ticularly small and otherwise different
from it's companions. The creature
licked up the honey or sugar placed in
the bulb and, having gathered a sup
ply, returned to share it with it's com
panions in the nest.
Wasmann then removed the cord
upon which the insect came out and
sought for food. He then approached
1t with the point of a needle dipped in
honey. The ant at first shrank back,
as if frightened, then gradually drew
nearer, feeling about with its antenna,
till at last it came up to the needle and
licked off the honey. Later he accus-
toned it to take the honey directly
from the tip of his finger, a surprising
fact when we remember that the least
unusual odor or the slightest move
ment outside their nest is either re-
pulsive or terrifying to ants and drives
them either to fight or to dcmonstra-
tons of disgust. Wasmann succeeded
in tanning the insect so completely that
at last it quilted the bulb Immediately
the cork was removed, came in quest of
the honey on his finger and at the con
clusion of its repast made no attempt
at resistance or fight.

Mrs. Mckinley. Room.

Mrs. McKinley's room at the White
House is the pleasantest spot in the
house. She has abandoned the south
west apartment overlooking the White
lot and the mall used by her predeces-
sors for the large and pretty chamber
facing north, the windows of which
command the driveway and the flower
beds.
The room is furnished and draped in
her favorite color-blue-and decorated
with the photographs of her friends,
among which children predominant,
bric-a-brac collected on her travels and
the thousand and one little things that
give that subtle and indefinable charm
which for want of better word we
call "homy." Here the mistress of the
White House spends most of her time,
and here she receives her intimate
friends.-Leslies Weekly.

Took Bunny to n Hospital.


Two little girls carrying a large bas-
ket between them walked into the Sa-
maritan hospital at Philadelphia and
carefully deposited their burden on the
floor.
Dear DOCTOR said one timidly as
DR.. Brady approached, '.Teddy's leg is
hurt awful bad. He tore it on nail.
Can't you please cure him?'
Gracious" exclaimed the physician
as he glanced at the tear stained faces
of the children and then at the big mar
ket basket, what have you here? q
Quickly but gingerly he unfolded lay
er after layer of cotton in the basket,
wondering all the while who the well
beloved Teddy was. When the cover
ing was removed he discovered q small
white rabbit curled up and motionless
at the bottom.
DR.. Brady sighed with relief as he
lifted the bunny up to examine it, and
after promising the child not to hurt
the rabbit even a little bit DR.. Brady
dressed the bInny's leg, the skin of
which had been torn into strips, and
put it back into the basket.
In the hallway one of the children
paused, took a penny out of her pocket
and, climbing upon chair, dropped it
into the contribution box Then, carry
ing the basket containing Teddy be-
tween them, they marched proudly out
of the institution.-Phi Philadelphia Press.

Artificial Narcissus.

Next to the American Beauty and La
France rose. the pansy and the violet
the popular flower of the season is the
poetic narcissus-called more frequent
ly the daffodil. On account of the vogue
of pale and deep yellow tints it will re-
tain its popularity all the season, first
as fayorite genuine blossom, after
ward as an imitation in tribute to the
marvellous Partisan flower workers.
The lack of vitality, as in many of the
artificial roses, cannot be discovered in
this beautiful copy until one has touch
ed it's petals, as the artificial narcissus
has all the dainty, fragile appearance
of the true blossom.
