THE ANTS EGG TRADE.
Russian Gatherer Has Insects Help
Him In Collecting.


Ants eggs come in the main from
Russia. They are the best food OBJ
tainable for gold fish, and canaries
and other cage birds thrive on them
wonderfully. They cost about 30
cents pint. In the forests Of south
ern Russia ant nests abound. The
Russian egg hunter does not do his
own collecting there---he makes the
poor ants do It for him. Selecting q
hot, sunny day, the man first erects
little piles Of twigs. dozen or more
Of them, near the thickest colonies,
and then he kicks open all the nests
In the neighborhood. The ants know
that their eggs, thus exposed to the
sun would be made sterile In a few
hours, and they take them up and
hurry to place them under the nearest
shelter. The nearest shelter Is, Of
course, the little pile Of twigs, and
under each of these there are soon
heaped the eggs from hundred
nests. The egg hunter, after a smoke
and nap. has nothing to do but gath
er up his spoil and dump it In his
sack. He ships the eggs in hundred
weight bags, all over the world.

COST OF LIVING AND LABOR,

According to a report just is
sued by the United States De-
partment of Labor it is shown
that while the cost of many items
Of living has increased, wages
have advanced alta greater ratio,
while hours of labor have been
reduced says the st. Louis Globe
Democrat. A great mass a facts
and figures accompany the report
and the deductions can be tested
by any who may be skeptical. On
the average laborer, for fewer
hours, is earning more, with a
larger margin of wages over the
advanced cost of living. Employ
ment was never more abundant
and idlers are few. The compare
son is for the year 1906 with the
average of the ten years covered
by the last census. An advance
in wages is shown of 24.2 per
cent, an increase in the number of
employees of 44.9 per cent, with
u reduction in hours of labor of
4.6 per cent. By the same com.
parison the retail price of the
chief articles of food have adj
vanced 1871 per cent. For an
hours labor a workingman gets
10 per cent more food supplies
than in the previous decade.
Practical analysis like this dis
poses of the assertion frequently
heard that for the masses the cost
of living has outstripped income.
Often the many articles that cost
either the same or less are over
looked. Flour and sugar are not
higher than in the last census ten
years. Railroad transportation is
lower. First-class newspapers are
cheaper and better than in for
mer years. The National De-
partment of Labor goes over the
subject item by item, and locality
by locality, and its conclusions
are reached with unerring exact
ness. This has been a perverse
season in vegetables and fruit but
the just average of prices can not
be ascertained from a few excep-
tional articles. When the whole
field of the income and the outgo
CT home is covered, as in this
careful, unbiased report, the
situation is seen to be favorable.

Woman M. P.'s Mlshap.

One of the women members of the
Finnish diet met with a laughable
mishap recently while attending the
sittings of legal committee. Bored
by the proceedings she bestrode her
chair and rocked to and fro with her
feet clear off the ground. Suddenly
she overbalanced and fell above the
chair, with which she battled for some
moments as she lay on the floor. The
equality of the sexes Is coming to be
looked upon SO much as matter Of
course that the male members Of the
committee, not concealing their appre.
citation Of the humor Of the situation,
are reported to have been ungallant
enough to refrain from expressing re-
greet at the mishap.-London Mail.

Use Of Lions Name.

The lions name, like the human
hand, serves a distinct use. The lion,
without 1t, would soon die out The
jungle is the lions hunting ground.
Here he stalks the buffalo and other
such creatures, leaping on their backs
to STAY them. They tear madly away,
and in their flight strive to scrape of
the lion against tree trunks and
boughs. But his name protects him.
Without It the bumps and knocks he
receives in that wild ride would in
fallibly make him fall unconscious to
the ground. In fighting his name also
projects the lion, safeguarding bis
throat against the longest. sharpe
claws.

Older specimens are portion Of q

uniformly over the horns, with no sign
of thickening or hardening. Just what
these hornlike growths signify is per.

affection Between Senators.

There was sincere affection be-
tween the late Alabama senators, Nor
gan and Pettus. 1t Is said that Pettus
adored Morgan. He looked up to him
as few men look up to other men.
When Morgan passed away the fading
old veteran lost all interest in life.
These things sound unbelievable, per.
haps, to skeptical modern time, but
Morgan and Pettus did not belong to
modern time. They were relics of
AN elder age. They passed away al
most together. The death of one pre-
coded and, the Alabama men say,
brought absut the death of the other.
Together tAey lie in Selma, where.
side by side. they lived for 40 years.
