Peculiar Hnbits of These ThreadiilSc
Little Scrpents.
The "hOrsehair snakes are small,
flesh cOlorcd mites which live princi-
pally in stagnant water. After going
through various transformations they
come to the surface of the wafer in the
shape Of very slender purplish looking
threads. When they reach this last
stage, they leave the water and work
their way up the stalks and leaves of
aquatic plants. When opportunity af-
fOrds, they attach themselves TO the
feet, legs, wings and other parts of
larger insects, often, as one authority
states. creeping under the wing case
Of beetles. In the case Of the cricket,
katydid, grasshopper and other insects
of that ilk, whose legs are hollow, the
tiny hOrSehair takes the advantage and
creeps up the hollows into the very
vitals.
This accounts for the fat and clumsy
condition of some individuals of the
above named species, single specimens
of the cricket having been caught with
over two dozen of these threadlike

The Law.

TITS a truth as old as the soul of things
Whatever we sow We reap.
TITS the cosmc law that forever springs
From the unimagined deep.
TITS shown in the manifold borrowings
OF the race. in remorse with its secret
stings,
That he who grief 10 his brother brings
In his turn some day shall weep.
To the man who hears his victims cries
And hardens his heart at the sound
At last a Nemesis dread shall rise
From out of the void profound
Who sows in sefshness, greed and hate
Shall gain his deserts in the years that
wait,
For the slow and remorseless wheel OF
fate
Forever turns round and round.
If We give out mercy and love and light,
The same shall return to you,
For the standards of right are infinite
And the scales of the gods are true.
BY its good or evil each life is weighed;
In motives and deeds is its record made;
In the coin we pay we shall be repaid.

Little Swiss Town One of the Quaint

When next you go to the Lake of

the little known village of ST. Legier,
near by, on the road between Nevey

more or less than illustrated villages.
They are as profusely illustrated as

some striking picture or comical carl
cature from the brush of a great man

known in Paris, says Pearson's Maya

A house in st. Lcgier has no use for
q signbOard TO tell the world that it is
an inn, a cycle shop Il forge or dairy.
NJ. Beguin's picture does that. On a
stable wall he draws picture Of a
spirited runaway horse knocking down
hcn as he leaps for freedom; on the
white wall of the little village forge
are pictures of men making horscshoes
for dear life and shoeing frisly

one of the most imposing houses in ST.

of the crooked little village street and
Of the Dent du Jaman towering up in

The Cadets at New Market.
Louisville Courier Journal.

/
On May Is, 1864, the Cadets Of
the Virginia Military Institute il
Lexington, Va, kept, as they dc
each year, the anniversary Of the
battle Of New Market when their
little battalion Of $50 boys saved
the day for the Confederates and
put stop to advance Of SiegeI',
army down the valley. The
achievement has rightlybeen consid.
cred one Of the most gallant Of the
Civil War. The boys ranged in
age from fourteen to q, eighteen
years, and in their final charge in
which they went headlOng over the
Federal batteries, bayoneting the
gunners and capturing the cannon,
they lost over 20 per cent. Of their
small number. The action Of the
Cadets at New Market is "A bright
part Of the history Of the Civil
War, but there are few outside of
il little group Of Confcdcratcs and
close personal friends who know
the credit for the vi tory and the
quick discernment which made the
splendid valor Of the BOYS possible

Of Louisville.

plan at first was to leave the
cadets to guard the wagons. but
is the battle waXcd HOT the failure
Of Virginia Brigadier to throw
his men into an exposed point
threatened the breaking Of the
Confederate center and the loss Of
the day.
Captain Senple saw at glance
that heroic measures must be tax
en-. Reporting to General BgecK-
lnridge, he declared that the Ca
diets as the only available force
must fill the breach.
The commanding General saw
at once the absolute necessity for
the move, but his heart was sore
at the thought Of their peri. Col

writing Of the battle, says that
Breckinridge's reply was: Put
the boys in, Charlie, and may God
forgive me for the ORDER"

down his face.
Captain Semple gaIloped back
and led the battalion into position
giving them the point Of honor and
danger. Due to Captain Semplc's
grasp Of the situation and the
boys, superb courage, they held
their post for hours in the face Of
Il concentrated fire, and then by a
sweeping charge broke the Federal
advance and won the day. For
his handling Of the Cadets and for
acts Of conspicuous gaIlantry,
