She just knew the dolllies would starve to death Half way through the window, the little girl gave a gaso of astonishment The table she had left only few mo- ments before was now stocked to the Queens taste. ; Cute little coffee cookies and fruit drops and oranges all helped to make the table groan under the most in viting of repasts.

they have built around the bush for a stable for their stock as well as to prevent the ant cows from getting away.
 The ants have no system of branding their cattle, but to keep them where they want them they make the door of the sta- bic. or tunnel. large enough for themselves to pass in and out, but too small to let out their most valuable possession, the cows.
 The ant cows may have the entire bush for their grazing ground, but when they come to the covered way at the bottom of the large stem of the bush they can neither crawl over 1t nor through it.
 Ants have the advantage over many builders, in that they do not have to have q separate home for every family In the colony They live together In one apart ment house and club together In all their work Having once gotten a valuable herd of ant COWS. the ants take care to keep them from one season to another and do not let their property die They have a very ingenious way of matching their own young and they use the same method with the eggs of their ant cows
 The ants take the eggs of the young plant lice which are laid in the fall. and keep them for six months in the basement of the ant apartment house. where 1t is warm and comfortable during the cold winter.

drink and most of them win live prin- cipally upon leaf salad. When you go to see them you must tread very lightly and carefully, and then if your eyes are hundredth part as bright as theirs are you will be able to see most astonishing things.
 Among the most interesting of these tiny squatters in your dooryard will be found the wee black dairy farmers These strange little herders are the black ants which use as much judgment in selecting a site for their colony as cattle owners would in selecting a ranch.
 , The ant colony intends to keep cows and, as in the case of all cattle ranches, care must he taken to secure the right kind of feeding ground for the stock
 The insects that serve the ants for cows are tiny green plant lice They live on many kinds of bushes and shrubs, but are most abundant on rose bushes
 The ants prowl around yard and find a bush covered with the green insects. and then settle themselves near 1t, often at the foot, to be close to their milking place. A good dairy Is one that has punches of these green insects at the ends of the stems of the bushes, and along the main stem of the bush. One or two of the in- sects together are of no consequence
 By stroking the bodies of the little green insects with their ant feelers the ants ob- tain drop of clear, sweet liquid which

 the yard again, I saw great activity among the ants. Each one had seized on a wee green COW, and as fast as they could they
 were carrying them back upon the bush and putting them where they had been before. They had no mind to submit quiet fly while I destroyed their dairy. This was the only convenient bush near

they greedily eat. The amount gotten from each ant COW is small and the ants run about from one to another until they are satisfied. eating the sweet juice as 1t comes to them, but not trying to save any of it.
 In order that the ant cows may not es- cape, tunnel of earth is often built around the foot of the bush, and this makes if impossible for the little green in sects to get away, for they cannot crawl over 1t. Then the ants use the tunnel as a runway or lane and go back and forth through it from their hill to the bush.
 The ants do not leave the ant cows to get their own living entirely from the bush, but fodder them much as a farmer does his stock. They use the tunnel which

 Every one has observed the fondness of ants for sugar, and their cows do not give white milk, but sweet, thick juice of which the ant Is very fond. It Is not known just how old the ant cows have to be be- fore they begin to give this juice, but they do not have to be cared for long without rewarding their herders
 Ants do everything without apparently being conscious that they are watched and their milking time is an interesting occasion and easily seen. Out run these

The Hon. Joseph Welden Bailey
OF the constitution and Texas IL
s,ructed tnc Senate OF the United
States a. some length OH the history
Of the Democratic party last week
Comparing lis present situation! in
the Senate, where its members, he
declared, mad carried Independence
to the point of iDsubordlnation, .
witt, the splendid discipline of the
Republicans. amounting to "abject
submission he cried in ringing
tones:
with such al organization pur-
suing such lofty purpose, those
who, intoxicated with their power,
now affect to despise us shall learn
that it is as true in politics as it is
in Holy Writ that pride goeth be
fore fall. 80
The Hon. Benjamin R. Tlllman,
the dispensary king, arose slowly.
He reproved Mr.. Bailey with a
glance, and said:
Pride goeth before destruc-
ton. ,"
Let The Congressional Record
tell the story of this incident:
"Mr. Bailey-The Senator from
South Carolina corrects my quot
alton and would be glad to amend
by making it destruction if the
people will carry his amendment
into effect.
"Mr. Tillman-'Pride goeth be-
fore destruction, and a naughty
spirit before a fall
"Mr. Bailey-The Senator from
South Carolina is SO much better
versed in the Bible
"Mr. Tillman-Than in the law.
"Mr. Bailey-He is so much bet
ter versed in the Bible than l am
that I always yield to his correc-
ton"
Then Mr.. Bailey continued his
speech, the championship in Bible,
al research having been bestowed
upon Mr.. Tillman by the champion
of the constitution. 4 graceful aud
touching incident in the lives OF two
stern statesmen.
