Ing the pupa emerges from its cocoon

paws to the stem Of an aquatic plant

after ! momentary pause, the skin
suddenly bursts open and the perfect
insect appears, with closely folded
wings. which soon unfold and assume
their final form.
THE older naturalists thought TINT
the insect swallowed air. with which
the wings were inflated. ID reality
the air Is absorbed In the digestive
organs, causing an increased blood
pressure. which mechanically expands

A BRUTAL SYSTEM.

The railroads in our country
kill an average OF 5000 persons
a year and injure eight times as
many more. most Of whom are
workingmen.
Can Il be possible that there II
no remedy for this Wholesale
slaughter? Is there no compass
sion for the women and the chill
dren who remain? Must work
ingmcn themselves pay the price
not only for their personal mis-
haps. but out Of their earnings
pay also for the mishaps Of their
fellow workers: Shame on any
law or system which penalties
the workers for accidents for
which they are responsible to
only a limited extent. freeing
from practically all care and re-
sponsibility those whose interest
are being served by faithful men
who gave their lives so that the
world might be q gainer.-Rev.

Canada.
american News Service)


Winnipeg. Man, Jan. 30.-As far as
Western Canada is concerned the re-
ciprocity agreement could not please
the masses better. 1t will put millions
of dollars into the pockets Of farm
ers. Every bushel Of wheat will be
worth from 5 to IL cents more than
1t has been. Barley will again become
a desirable crop. Live stock all round
will be worth more than 1t has been
and will give great impetus to mix
ed farming. This means increased
values to farm lands in the west
where farm lands are much lower
proportionately than they are in the
east and In the United States. Real
estate values in the cities and towns
of the west will stiffen because of the
improved outlook for agriculture and
indeed this tariff agreement means
more for the Canadian west than any
one else.

Ego.

An ego Is Latinized I. All men
are created egos and endowed by their
Creator with certain inalienable some
things OF which neither statute, ukase.
edict. injunction, beggar, magnate.
book agent nor promoter can deprive
them. He who steals my purse steals
trash, but he who fllches from me my
ego takes that OF which he already
has enough and makes me not at all.
Women without votes have egos
and, strangely enough. would still
have them IL they secured the votes;
hence egos are not a political issue.
An ego Is what man is when he
has nothing and Is nothing else; that
is to say, he is then first person singu-
lar and no particular gender
An ego is neither soul, body, spirit,
family, country nor race. 1t is neither
moral nor pathological. A criminal has
just as much ego as a parsOn and no
more. Some egos are better than
others, chiefly our own.-Life.
