A Plague of Ants.

A singular state of things and at
the same time serious exists in the
Commune of Gonfalon in Var. The
fruit trees and all other products Of
the garden and even the fields bear
an unmistakable odor of formic acid.
The people are much concerned lest
their produce be rendered useless and
application has been made to the Min
istry of Finance for grant of 10000
francs to rid the district of the pests
which, 1t is scarcely necessary to say,
consists of myriads of ants.

HOW MIX SAVED THE HORSE.

Down on the next corner the people
keep a number of horses, and also a
dog to keep watch over them. The
dogs name is Mix, and he sleeps in
the same barn with the horses. One
night last summer a fire started in the
barn, and the dog saw there was dan
ger and barked for help, but no help
came. After barking for some time
he jumped right through the window
and ran up to the house. Barking
again he awoke his master. The
horses were all saved, but poor Mix
was badly cut with the glass. His
master cared for him day by day until
now he is well dog.-Ethel Barrett,
