The Marvellous Ways Of Various
Species OF Ants.

The Marvellous Ways OF Various
Species OF Ants.
Lieutenant Colonel Sykes saw at Poo
nan ants carrying out grain to dry in
the sun. DR.. Lincecum in Texas found
ants which planted certain seed bear
ing grass, reaped it and carried the
grain into their cells, where they strip
ped it Of chaff and packed it away.
The paper relating this was read by
Darwin before the Linnaean society.
Another observer has told US Of ants
which grow mushrooms.
The foraging ants Of Brazil and
western equatorial Africa are terrible
creatures. Elephants and gorillas fly
before them; the python takes care not
to indulge in a meal till he has salts
fed himself that there are none Of
them about. They have "ieisured
class" much larger creatures, which ac-
company their march, like subaltern
officers in q marching regiment" they
are not fighters, however. One curious
conjecture as to their function has
beer made. They are indigestible, and
birds spare the whole army lest they
should get hold Of cne Of these tough
morsels. This, 1t must be allowed,
looks a little too strange.
Slaves the ants certainly have, but
they do not make slave raids; the lar
vac cf the inferior race are carried OF
and hatched out. The crowning mar
vel, however, Is that the British slave
owning ant, and he alone, makes his
slaves fight for him.-London Specta-

Disconnected Committee.

Ferdinand Hassler, the father OF the
United States coast survey system,
was once waited upon by committee
of congress sent to inquire into the
progress Of the work. The committee
reached New York and wended their
way upstairs to the room where Hass-
ler was drilling his classes and prepar-
ing them for the work. Hassler, who
allowed no intruders, met them at the
door and inquired their business. Ihey
answered that they had come to in
vestigate. what part Of the work do
you wish to inspect:' inquired the
Swiss mathematician. Congress had
no definite idea on that point. linen
you had better go and find out" re-
turned Hassler as he shut the door IN
the faces Of the astonished commit
tee. The committee looked at each
other and on second sober thought con-
cluded that Hassler was about rlShI
and quietly wended their way do"n-
stairs and back to Washington.

They Bring Anxiety, bat Very Much
More Comfort.
The children Of the family-one is
apt to look on them as burdens, both
ers and expenses.
When the baby comes, be it ever so
welcome, the mother has more work to
do. AS it grows into childhood and on
to maturity it IS more and more care,
worry and expense.
And so the little children, those 1nno-
cent respassers, are borne with as pa
tiently as possible until they grow to
a successful manhood or womanhood.
Few stop to think deeply about this,
or it would be plainly seen how erro-
neous the impression.
The children Of the family, instead
Of being burdens, are burden bearers;
small saviors who are daily means Of
grace, and who lead the world worn
parents once more into the paths Of in
nocence and peace.
A baby's tiny hand clasped around
his mothers finger. has stilled heart
throbs Of sorrow and Of bitter trouble;
q baby's arms around bis fathers neck

q renewal Of that love which is all
that makes life NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

The c,ersyman:s Hobbyhorsc.

Visitors to a quaint little church in
England observe curious relic in the
shape of a high stool with Il leather
ton like a saddle. The parish clerk
shows not a little pride in this relic and
tells its story with relish. During the
seventeenth and eighteenth centuries
the country parsons were accustomed
to spend much Of their time hunting
with their country squires. Often-
times the fox got more attention than
the sermon on the following Sunday
Such was the case with the parson who
left the saddle stool behind him as a
relic of the days Of fox hunting par
sons. He was q good deal more at
home in the saddle than in the pulpit,
so in order to introduce some Of the
life and spirit into his discourses which
he felt while in the hunting field, the
reverend gentleman had this saddle
stool made. It was placed in the pull
pit before the parson mounted the
steps. Once astride this hobby the par
son was able to reach much higher
degree Of enthusiasm and eloquence
than he could have unmounted.

Library Book There's.

"No public library is safe from book
thieves. In the big libraries they have
spoilers to watch men who ask for
rare editions, but in the small libraries
we must depend on the girls employed
who happen to detect thief by
chance. If possible we catch the book
thief before he reaches the door and
ask him if he has not forgotten to have
the volume checked off at the registry
desk. If be is an old hand be says:
"I have forgotten my card, but I
will bring it around tomorrow
"He hands back the book and disap-
pears to reappear in that particular IL
brary no more for many months. The
majority Of book thieves do not steal
novels. They so after works Of refer
ence, almanacs, year books and such
things, that most of them probably
need in their business, but cannot af-
ford to buy. That is why such vol
umes are nailed down in many libra
ries. I have actually known a woman
to get away with a city directory un-
der'her cloak."-New York Press.

Something In Addition.

A German grocer, newly arrived IN
New Orleans, opened up downtown
establishment. He got along fairly
we'll for awhile, but soon all his Gus
toners ceased coming.
Meeting one Of them on the street one
day he inquired the cause.
Because you don't give lagniappe,"
was the curt reply.
But what is dot lagniappe:' be per-
sisted.
"Oh, simply a custom here. When
one buys anything at grocery store
the clerk or proprietor usually gives
lagniappe-that is, little something in
addition"
"Och, dot is it, eh?'' replied the grocer
ceAectively and went his way.
The next customer who came in was
served by him in person.
After the package was tied and hand
ed over the counter the grocer said
suddenly:
What is der sum Of sixteen hundert

the 'aStonished purchaser.
"Why, dots your lagniappe-a leetle

Rettinr For q Friend.

A gentleman was requested by lady
to put her tenner on certain horse
if he fancied it. Now, be did not
fancy the animal nor back it and was
greatly surprised to see it win. Of
course he was pleased, but his sat1s-
faction was interrupted by the refec-
ton that the lady would doubtless
imagine that her tenner had been IL
vested. The trainer inquired the price
20 to 1. Though a poor man, he was
and Is, I should say-so kindly and
scrupulous that he would not dlsap-
point his friend, and sent her f2O0,
which he could exceedingly i'll afford.

When gallantry prevailed in the
south no woman was allowed to carry

his hat, make low obeisance and beg
the privilege Of acting as her express

cepted of all men In the spirit in which
q queen would allow vassal to serve

BLOWING OUT A CANDLE.
The Effect Puff OF Breath Has on
the Flame.

The Effect a Puff OF Breath Has on
the Flame.
a burning candle is L gas manufac-
tory on a small scale. The wax OF
tallow is converted by the heat Of the
fame into gas, and in that form en-
tiers into chemical combination with
the oxygen Of the surrounding air.
This chemical union causes a very
high rise in temperature in the ele-
ments concerned. In fact, it produces
what we know as dame of fire, which
is simply the white hot molecules OF
carbon and oxygen. The gas making
process is started BY the match IN
lighting the candle and is afterWard
continued by the flame itself.
Our breath acts in three way: % 1t
carries away the particles Of gas bodl-
". C2) 1t lowers their temperature at
the same time, so that they are no
longer capable Of entering into chem
ical union with the oxygen. (3) The
breath contains carhonic acid gas,
which is incapable Of supporting COM
buston and so helps to extinguish the
fame.

:'NIy mother has been sufferer for

W. H. Howard of Husband. Pennsyl-

move at all while at all times walking
was painful. I presented her with a
bottle of Chamberlain's Pain Balm and
after a few applications she decided it
was the most wonderful pain reliever
she had ever tried, in fact she IS
never without it now and is at all times
able to walk. An occasional applica-
ton of Pain Balm keeps away the pain
that she was formerly troubled with. y
