bullet: My cousin and | had been
camping and hunting for several days
in a sort of paradise valley. One day,
during long ride on horseback. we

up and saw, by the light of the moon. a

An Ant For n PEI.

One OF the Queerest little pets ever
seen Is the tame ant belonging to Il 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 offer
ed it some honey Oh the point of n
needle. says the New York Tribune.
The ant shrank back ut first. then
drew nearer. feeling about with its al
tennR, until it reached the needle.
Soon it learned to take the honey off
its keepers finger. although ants are
among the most tmn o.; living things.
and new odor or t.le,lgnSt 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 removed
and goes to find the honey On the sci
entist's finger. When It's meal is over.
it does not try to hurry away. but
waits till it's master lifts it on a bristle
and carries it back to it's nest.

Sweeping Back the River.

Some time ago two hulking hoboes
who had just dismounted from IL Cen
trail freight train asked Yonkers man
for a loan OF 10 cents to secure some
food lie took them to Il restaurant
and promised to provide them with
work as soon as they had finished eat
ing. When they rcrorted for work, he
said: Boys. my cellars full Of water.
and ! want you to pump it out. I've
fixed these hand pumps right here Oh
the sidewalk. Never mind the people.
When they come along and ask qucs-
tons, just YOU say nothing, but pump
till the waters out of the cellar. Keep
cool. Don't hurry. but pump. and l

Now, a tributary to the Ncppcrhan
river ran through this mans store cell

pumps reached down into the river.
The water pumped odt by the hObocs

stock Market Tins.

Does it ever g. eur to those who fol-
low journalistic tips on the stock mar
aet that they arc written by men who
ind 1t worth their while to follow an
arduous and moderately remunerated
profession and that therefore the tip
ster obviously cannot trust to his tips
for livelihood?
Is it conceivable that any one whose
judgment of the movements of securi
ties was sufficiently trustworthy to
make even the majority of his shots
bullseyes would waste his time by
compiling paragraphs for newspapers?
Would he not rather spend half an
hour or SO in the morning at the end
Of telephone instructing his broker
to buy and sell and devote the rest of
lis day to the graceful consumption OF
the boundless fortune that his knowl-
edge and acumen would. eX hypothesi.
inevitably provide?
And tips from stockholders come IN

reasonable to suppose that one who
really had tips worth following in his
possession would utilize them as bats
for clients who reward his efforts with

Deer Live tn q Grent Age,


Romance has played a prominent part
with regard to the longevity of deer
What says the highland adage?
Thrice the age Of dog is that Of horse.
Thrice the age Of horse is that Of a man.
Thrice the age OF man is that of deer
Thrice the age Of deer is that of an eagle,
Thrice the age Of an eagle is that Of oak tree
This Is to assign the deer a pe.sod Of
more than 200 years. and the estimate
is supported by many highly circum
stantial stories. Thus Captain Nc
Donald Of Tulloch. who died in 177G.
aged sc years. is said to have known
the white hind of Loeb Trieg for 50
years, his father for like period before
him and his grandfather for 60 years
before him. So in 1896 Macdonald Of
Glengarry is reported to have killed a
stag which bore mark on the left ear
identical with that made on all the
calves he could catch by EwenMaclan-
Og. who had been dead 100 years. Anal
ogous stories, it may be noted, are told
in countries on the continent Of Europe.
