WHAT WE OWE TO INSECTS.
They Are Of the Greatest Benefit to
Growing Flowers.

Prof. Darwin said that if 1t had not
been for insects we should never have
had any more imposing or attractive
flowers than those of the elm, the hop
and the nettle. Lord Avebury COM
pares the work of the insect to that OF
the florist. He considers that just as
the florist has by selection produced
the elegant blossoms of the garden, SO
the insects, by selecting the largest
and brightest blossoms for fertiliza'
ton, have produced the gay flowers OF
the field. Prof. Plateau, of Client, has
carried out a series of remarkable ex'
periments on the ways of insects visit.

are guided by scent rather than by

Jealousy, discussions, misery and d.

quences when a wife is engaged in the
same life occupation as her husband,
when their lives move on parallel
lines and with parallel ambitions, and
when it is possible that the work of
the wife exceeds in merit that Of the
husband?
So 1t would seem from the unhappy
marital history of Mrs. Rhoda Holmes
Nichols, a history in which art and
jealousy crept in at the door while
love few out through the window.
Her divorce has just been recorded
in the New York supreme court.

artist colony around Fifty-seventh
street and Eighth venue She was
pretty and popular and good.
Miss Holmes vas not only a painter,
but even after she began to sell her
pictures she continued to be an en-
thusiastic student.
She went to France and Italy, where
she studied art in the best schools.
She was successful there, and event
ually went to South Africa and Asia
for landscapes.
Still heartfree and winning her own
way in the world, she settled down in
Florence, where the air is the very
breath of art, and where the sky is as
tender as the eyes of love.
Here in the course of her work she
met a young painter named Burr Mich
OILS. He, too, was a fine artist, and
their mutual tastes drew them much
together.
1t is strange that the very traits
and characteristics and the mutual
likes which give birth to love should
in the end be the can of its death
and funeral. The young artists did
not dream Of the truth Of these things
How could the art from which love
sprang be its murderer? Neither die
they reck of the future when they
became engaged. Was there not the
magic of love in their brushes? Were
they not bohemians enough to face
the future with light hearts? Could
they not paint the fearful eyes away
from the face of sorrow, and put the
a and bells on the picture of pow
erty? On these fundamental beliefs
they were married.
Nichols, like his wife, was a fine
painter. They lived an ideal life il
their studio. They painted together
talked together, planned together, lv
ing and dreaming for each other.
The Nichols artist family was in

In due time the two pictures were
packed in separate crates and shipped
to Paris and in due time the answers
came back.
His answer was a box with his pic
ture, returned with a due acknowl-
edgment; hers an acceptance with
honorable mention.
Then, say Mrs. Nichols friends, the
mans nature seemed to change en-
tirely. He became grumpy and cross.
Nothing seemed to please him. The
iron had entered his soul. The wife
had outdone the husband in his chosen
sphere of life. Oh, strange phase of a
mans nature which makes such a
thing unforgivable!
Some old philosopher has called
love 1.-The egotism Of two" The ego
tism of Burr Nichols had received a
fatal blow, and under that blow love
withered. There was no more peace,
no more happiness in the household.

motions of the earth, moon and planets to serve every demand that is made
BY commerce. An observation once Or twice a year, perhaps, and a few
computations will be all that the business man can use commercially. But
there are few who consider the large sums spent in astronomical research
as wasted, because they add SO largely to the knowledge that man has
about his surroundings.
In the same way, most intelligent men do not begrudge the cost in
time and human life that the search for the pole demands. The most OF

Up to this time not a cloud had

to insure separate consideration they
were packed and shipped in separate

In due time Mrs. Rhoda Holmes anG

While they were prosperous and

They came accordingly and settled
down in the studio quarter in New

career, disposing of their pictures as

were happier than most married peo-

In 1897 Mr.. Nichols began a picture

But the last straw came when Mrs.

Thereafter her existence was peace

the scene Of desperate encounter
last Wednesday, between two Of the
ranch employees, and as. result, one
of the men, Afanasix Romanenko a

that it was at first feared would cause

AS near as can be learned, Roman
enko and Berman became involved III
dispute concerning the disposition
of part of load Of hay, and that
without justifable propagation Ber-
man assaulted Romanenko, an older
and less athletic appearing man, with
.pitchfork. It is said that after re-
ceiving minor injuries from the fork
Romanenko seized the same, and that
Berman, in wrestling the fork away
from Romanenko, struck himself on
the head, became more infurated than
ever, picked up a piece Of lead pipe
about three feet in length and with
this deadly weapon struck Roman
enko down and beat him even after
he was unconscious. Later so it is
reported, Romanenko regained~ con-
seriousness and crawled into the
house, and that then Berman pro-
ceeded to demolish windows, but did
not enter to inflict more punishment
upon the inmates of the house.
Romanenko's injuries consist of
badly injured eye, one or two frac-
lures of the skull, four fractured ribs,
two ribs cracked and the bone Of one
leg cracked.

caused death. And it was at the
