ION varies widely among those best

Ants Build Good Roads.

The greatest road builders In the

in South America. In building road
they carry minute particles Of clay,
with which they line all the roads as
we'll as the galleries and passages OF
their nests till they look as smooth
as II cemented by a master mason.
Some idea Of their number can be
formed when II Is remembered that
the whole Of this road to their tree,
perhaps nearly half a mile long, Is
densely thronged with multitude 60

their umbrella-like burdens, while
thousands swarm in the doomed tree.

down, giving their orders to the work.
ers, which they do by touching heads
for a moment The individual 80
touched will stop, turn back, hurry
forward or show some such way that
he Is following some command. But
a better proof of the discipline Is
found In the fact that when the ant
meets with an obstacle, such as log
or a stone there is jam of ants on
both sides and they run about In dis
may and disorder. Instantly the driv-
ers hurry up, showing the greatest ex-
cftement and run over, around and un-
der the impediment to find the best
way out Of the difficulty. When they
have decided they lead off the line OF
march In the proper direction. But
until they take this step the workers
make no attempt to pass the obstacle.
When a selection Of a level piece OF
ground has been made a perpendicular

and six or seven feet deep Is formed.
