Insect Busss.

Naturalists have decided that many insects have senses which human beings lack. That of loca. tion, shown by the wasp, for in stance, is remarkable. One spe. cies builds it's nest in a sandbank that is only part of several acres of such soil, and when it leaves in search of food it covers the nest so carefully that no ordinary eye could discover its location. That is to say it is just like all the sur rounding location, and yet the wasp flies back to it without he's itation and finds it without mak- ing mistake. There is another wasp tfat unerringly locates the eggs of the mason bee under a thick layer of sun-baked clay, and deposits her eggs in the same cells that her young may have food when they are matched.

.uquiries have been received in

.uquiries have been ref eiyed in Bangor, Me-, from persons sup posed to repre\sent either the Rus sish or the Jal alpanese government concerning pqces for moccasins in large quantities and the earli- est date of delivery at Atlantic or Pacific ports. It is supposed that the moccasins are wanted for sol diers campaigning in Manchuria. For that purpose they would be eminently suitable, says the New York Sun.
 The moccasin is the favorite footwear of the lumbermen of Maine, and was first made in Ban. gor in 1851. At first only one or two styles were made, but now moccasins are manufactured in great variety, ranging from slip pers for women and children soft as kid and embroidered with beads-to the stout boots and lar rigans of the Penobscot lumber, men.
 Much of the sewing is still done by hand, being let out by the piece to French Canadian families in the neighborhood of Bangor. All moccasins are made of specially prepared leather, rendered a gold en yellow by peculiar process of tanning.
 The common moccasin is not proof against water, but it has room for several pairs of stock ings, and that is a strong point in it's favor. For keeping the feet warm and dry in cold weather he moccasin has no equal.
 The greater part of the mecca sin leather still comes from the place of it's origin, Pawtucket, R l., although a considerable quantity is tanned in Bangor. Some years ago Bangor men es, tablished factories at Red Wing. Minn., and Racine, Wis.
 The dainty bath slippers, which are not really moccasins, bat are made from soft elk skin, are in great demand at home and abroad, and are especially favored by the ladies of Japan, to which country Bangor sends large quantities. It new seems likely that "Bangor's golden slippers" as moccasins are called may be worn by the con. tending armies in Manchuria. x

JAPAN's FIRST IRoNcLAD.
Hsr Crew Made q Brave Start, But Couldn't Stop Her Till Fires
 Went Out.

That the role of Japan as mar. itime power is a new one is brought strongly to our notice by recalling the quite we'll authen. ticated story of the first adven. ture of the first Japanese iron clad, says Country Life.
 She was built in England. While she was building her crew were also in England practicing, in other ironclads how to drive her. When she was finished the Japanese seamen took possession of her, bravely maintaining that they were fully equal to the task of starting her.
 And that, to be sure, they were, for she steamed out finely. The trouble only began when she came back to port again. Then, when they wanted to slow her down and stop her, they were unable to do 50.
 They had to put her out to sea again and go on steaming her about till her fires went out, her engines stopped for want of steam, and she could be lowed in.
 From this to having the best mentally.equipped crews, perhaps, of any nation seems long step. but it has been a very rapid one.
