MONSTER HORNET NEST.
One So Inches in Diameter Found in
Ohio.

z. K. Walston Of Williamsport, Picka-
way county, brought TO Columbus an
unusually large hornets nest which was
found on the farm of w. !. Woods.
mile and a half north Of Williamsport
1t measured about 80 inches in diameter
and was about 2 feet deep.
1T is the largest | ever saw" said
Mr.. Walston. 1T takes about two years
for hornets TO build their nests. These
are made from moss from trees and fence
rails and are waterproof. 4 family Of
from 300 TO 500 live in each nest and
they leave when the cold weather comes.
'The next spring the queen returns
and deposits eggs ana Il new family is
raised Hornets will attack you more
quickly than any other insect. They are
always on the alert for trouble. One or
two stand guard at the entrance to the
nest and they spot an enemy fifty or
seyenty-fve yards away and will fy out
to give battle TO him.
When these sentneis see trouble they
give the signal to those inside and then
90 out TO meet it. If you should raise
your hand OF u distance they would see
the movement and interpret it as a hos
tile one, and then look out If you do
not bother them they will not bother you,
but do not get in their way They sting
whatever they hit. "-Columbus Dispatch.

CHAPTER XVI.

As DeRilia had predicted, she imme-
diately became one of the Dukes party.
No excursion could be made without her.
and as her friend did not turn up. and
as she was pledged to wait at Zermatt
till she did, it is scarcely necessary TO
say that the Duke could not have been
induced to leave either.
Agnes made no secret to herself that
her motive in desiring to encourage her
brothers fancy for Denziha was in the
first place pulley selfish, Denizlia, once
married, she might hope that Lang
srishe's heart would really tuEn to her as
she wished it turned. But she was not
altogether proof against Agnes charm
apars from this motive.
The American heiress laid herself out
to win back in Agnes affections the
place size had once held there as the
miniature painter
Tell me honestly, Lady Agnes" she
asked her boldly the first time she had
an opportunity of confidential talk
with the English girl, do yea think my
conduct in assuming two DISCUSSES in
London a very heinous thing2"
II do not know enough of the c;rcum-
stances to know whether it was so or
no." Agnes answered cautiously.
''It was thought so by one whose opin-
ion | valued" Denzilia murmured softly.

happiness"
Agnes looked at her.
'sYou do not mean Mr. Langrishe ?" she
said quickly and involuntarily. 81 beg
your pardon. I did not mean to ask i'm
pertinent questions"
"You need not beg my pardon" Den
zilia answered II was not alluding to

really think highly enough of me to be
afflicted at my doing a risky thing"
81 think you wrong Mr.. Langrishe,"
said Agnes steadily.

added very deliberately

times refused to marry Mr.. Langrishe.
and of late he has ceased to ask me. And
I take this as sign that he has seen
some one he likes better than me-
sincerely hope it is So"
She did not wait for Agnes answer,
but entered the hotel, went into the
reading room, took up paper, and seat
ed herself near the window which opened
on TO the verandah, where she had left
Agnes sitting She was, however, behind
the curtain, so that any one ON the
verandah, even though quite close TO her,
would remain unaware of her vicinity.
Agnes had book on her lap, and when
Miss Lavenham left her she opened it
and made pretense of reading. Lang
rishe sauntered up a few moments later
and seated himself in chair beside her.
She glanced at him for a moment and
then went on reading.

pecially for high school graduates who
wish TO continue their studies and yet do
not wish to devote four years to the ordi-
