The yelled head of the woman had

edging her way toward the figure, cropping
with her hand along the side of the table,
She reached the bowed head and moved
her hand over it. Slowly she drew the
veil back, revealing first the mouth, then
the weary eyes; it was the face of the dear
old lady who had made her underwear from
childhood

cried as she surrendered.

as she bent over the worn old wedding ring
and kissed it between her sobs.

heads of the paupers, saying:

A LIVING SWEETMEAT.
The Way Native Mexicans Eat the
Honey Bearing ANT.

The Way Native Nexicans Eat the
Honey Bearing Amt.
The honey bearing ant of southern
Mexico and Colorado works ct night,
storing the honey i'll curious fashion.
After f9-aging expedition on the.
plants of the Schrig oak the worker
ant on its return forces the honey by
muscular contraction from its mouth
into the crop and abdomen Of the
honey bearer" This crop is walled
by ten muscular plates and is capable
Of great expansion. When filled the
abdomen becomes extraordinarily dis
tended. the bearer" resembling a sac
cf amber colored honey. with the head
and thorax like small appendages on
one side.
The bearers" being rendered almost
helpless by this change of condition,
are carefully attended by the other
ants and kept in suitable compart-
ments, where, clinging to the roof,
they hang down like amber globes.
The ants as they need food apply their
mouths to those of the "honey bear
ers," when a slight contraction of the
muscles forces out minute drops, which
are licked off and consumed. These
ants are used by the natives Of Mexico
as dessert to their feasts, the honey
being extracted by pressure between
the teeth.

"There is one piece of etiquette entire

derived, by which it is ordained that
all new arrivals, whatever their rank,
foreign ministers not excepted, must,
in solemn print, give notice to every
family OF any consideration in the cap
ital that they have arrived and put
themselves and their homes at the dis
position Of the residents, failing in
which etiquette the newly arrived fam
lily will remain unnoticed and un-

A LAMB AND ITS DAM.
The Way the Eve Recognizes Its
Own Offspring.


Own Offspring.
Although sheep can see and hear
very well, it is undoubtedly by the
sense of smell that the ewes recognize
their own offspring. Sir Herbert Max
well relates an interesting example Of
this odd fact, citing the case of a Chev-
lot lamb which had fallen into a
river and, owing to the steepness Of
the bank, could not climb out.
An angler. who was fishing in the
stream, rescued the shivering animal,
and it staggered away, bleating pit
eously for it's dam. 1t found her with.
out much difficulty, but the mother.
shifting disdainfully at the dripping lit
tie wretch, pushed it off, refusing tc
recognize it, The angler appealed to
a shepherd who happened to pass that
way for an explanation of the ewes
behavior. ooh" said he, 1.-The bit
beastie's been in the water, We see, and
the auld eve Gamma smell it. She'll
tax it back as soon as it's dry
And so it turned out. The fleece was
soon dried, the natural odor returning,
and the mother and child were recon
ciled and reunited at once.

tiOns to Our Vocabulary.
During the middle ages Aristotle was
practically the only secular author
read in Europe, for the priestly class
were the only readers, and their learn
ing was mostly confined to ecclesias-
teal treatises. 1t was during this pc
Rod that the English language was
developing into its present form.
Aristotle treated Of every subject
which came within the range of
thought in his time and introduced
many new branches of inquiry which
have since become sciences. The terms
used by him were adopted by every
later writer and are still in use all
over Europe, although variously cor
rupted
The following list will give some
idea of the number and power of Arts
totle's word coming, which is revived
in modern everyday English:
Maxim, principle, subject, matter,
form, end, final. cause, motive, energy,
mean, extremes, metaphysics.
He called his investigations about
animals histories" whence we call

in view. natural history" and in our
universities the term faculty" is d
