BODY AS A COMPASS NEEDLE
Ants Have an UnfallIng Method q
Finding Their Way Back to
Their Nests.

Not only naturalists, but every one
who has watched ants has wondered
how, they fnd their way to and from
their nests. A French naturalist. M.
Cornetx. has been observing ants In
Algeria and In . recent issue Of La Ma.
tur4 he tells the results Of his OBJ
serSatfons.
The ant. he says. in its outward Jour-
ney, proceeds throughout in the d.
rection initially chosen: on Its return
the insect places its body at the same
angle and walks in the opposite d.
rection. The body of the ant would
therefore act as a kind Of compass
needle.
II an ant is caught at the nest and
transported to a point some yards dis.
tant. the insect is quite incapable Of
finding its way back. 1t runs around
IN the ground until it accidentally
comes across the entrance to the bur-
row. The case is quite different ii
an ant is allowed to find it's way to a
distance unmolested. On leaving the
nest it places itself in a certain direc.
ton, and holds the same, no matter
what obstacles 1t may meet with en-
route, and no matter what side tracks
it may occasionally strike in order to
seize some article of food or Of struc.
tural value for its nest.
The return is effected directly, rap.
iuly and without hesitation, even il
the ground covered has been swept in
order TO change its relief. The return
is obviously determined completely by
the outward trip, and an ant which
has left it's nest on a voyage of ex.
ploration finds its way back just be.

Of course the followers Of
Roosevelt expect their new par
ty to eventually become the lead
er in American politics and some
with whom we have talked ex-
pect it to leap to that leadership
this year in county. state and
nation. That they are expecting
a political miracle they will not
or cannot see.
A line Of investigation which
is being carried on by Professor
Fred E. Haynes Of Morginside
college under the auspices of the
State Historical Society, is in
teresting. According to reports
from Iowa City, Professor
Haynes is gathering material for
a history of the third party move
ments in Iowa. Of these third
parties the two which have at
tracted the largest number of
voters in Iowa are the Populist
and G%reenback parties. The
best vote a third party candidate
for governor of Iowa ever re-
ceived was "a, 600 which was
given to Daniel P. Stubs, can
didate of the Greenback party
in 1877. In 1898 ]. M. Joseph
got 2,400 on the Populist ticket,
and in 1895 S. B. Crane got 5000
on the same ticket, being Z per
cent of the total vote cast. By
1897 the party had gone to
pieces. The comparatively large
support given to these parties
was no doubt due, at least in part,
to the fact that the Gen. James
B. Weaver of Iowa was the lead
er in this state and the Green
back candidate for president in
1880, while in 1892 he was a can
didate for the same Office on the
Populist ticket.
Perhaps it will help some to
look over the following historical
record. which we clip from an ex-
change, but which we believe to
be substantially accurate.
Anti Masonic Party-In 1892
it was strong enough to gain the
support of Seward. 1t made a
vigorous fight against Andrew
Jackson. In the end the only
vote it obtained was that of Ver-
mont.
Liberty Party-In 1874 this
party was comprised of strong
opponents to slavery and gave
it's powerful aid to Polk, the
democrat. It's nominee, James
G. Birney. however, got only
enough votes in New York to
take the vote away from Clay,
the Wing candidate.
Free Sellers. This party grew
ous Of the Liberty party. 1t went
into the fight in l848 with former
President Buchanan as leader. It
received enough votes in New
York to deprive Lewis Cass of
that state and elect Zachery Tay-
lor president. In 1852 the party
lost to Franklin Pierce, who won
every state but four.
The Know-Nothings. 1t was
successful in state elections in
1854 and 1855, but when it went
into a presidential election it OBJ

region Of Tyre and Sidon dealing with
the S~yrophenician woman. In v 81
(R. w We now see him journeying
back towards the Sea OF Galllee

but he could not be hid" and now
upon his return he continues to meet
these sad cases which need healing,
and who are brought to him by their
intensely interested friends. Jesus
does not need beseeching. He whose
heart was touched with compassion is
ready to hear the faintest cry.
This first section is rich with sug-
gestions. Jesus takes the man apart
suggesting the necessity for individ-
ual personal dealing with God. Men
are not saved en- masse but as sepa-
rate individuals, 1t could not be other
wise and have a man retain his per-
sonality. To work any cure for our
sins Jesus demands our individual at
tention. Then Jesus placed his fin
gers in the mans ears; suggesting
the added emphasis that we must come
into personal contact with God II we
would be healed. We may stop to rea-

Moistening the mans tongue with
his own saliva suggests that the source
OF healing is to be In Jesus own per
son. Our salvation is not In the words
he spake.. nor the life he lived, but the
life he gave (Heb. 9:12-14).
Fellowship With God.
Jesus also looked to heaven. indicat
ing that we must continue In fellow
ship with God, and also indicating bis
own fellowship with the father. Jesus
sighed over the wreck Of sin. The son
of man came to bear sorrows and
to share our griefs. lisa. $3.50. At
'tention has been called to the sighs
and the tears Of Jesus. II our pray
ers were more accompanied by tears
and heartfelt signs they would be
more powerful. (cf. Romans S:2s).
It is equally true that if our sighing
were accompanied by more prayers
we would accomplish in his king
dom.
After these preliminary and sugges-
tive acts Jesus spoke the one word
"Ephphatha"-Be opened-and deaf
ears were opened to words of praise
and counsel and to the cry OF distress.
Loosed was the mans tongue to speak
his word of personal testimony and to
witness for his healer. Read Isaiah
32:1-4 and 1874, 5.
II. JESUS THE PROVIDER wv.
Ito, CT. Matt. 15:32-3S.)
The tremendous stir Jesus caused
is graphically suggested by Mark in
verse one of this section. From far
and near they had gathered and now
at the end of the third day their small
supply of food is exhausted. We are
told by John (6:26. 27) why they had
followed him, still they were deeply
interested in him and considered him
to be a prophet John 6:14). Never
theless Jesus was moved with a com-
passion then, ever as now he is moved
when he beholds us in u unworth-
mess.

No Hunger Too Great.

The compassion of Jesus is a very
active principle, it does not consist OF
signs and lamentations, or of investi.
cations and condemnation of condi-
lions. His compassion causes him to
act. But the disciples are aghast at
his suggestion that he feed this mul
titude of "about four thousand"
whence shall one be able to fill these
men with bread" Or. W? On the 9th
err occasion Jesus had asked Philip.
who lived in the nearby town of Beth
saba, where they might find bread;
but now they are in a desert place.
It may seem strange for the disciples
to ask such a question. He had fed a
larger number with smaller resources.
After taking stock ". 81 Jesus COM
mands the people to sit down. He
received their seven loaves ". g. and
brake and gave, first to the disciples,
and through them to the people. Such
as they had, first given to him. respond
ing to his touch, vas enough and to
spare ". 81. When we give him our
all he will bless, multiply and use.
Our Golden Text (v.37) Is suggestive
of a wide application in teaching this
lesson. We have in this lesson two Incl
dents as illustrations. In both we can
see those principles that govern his
life and ministry, viz, unvarying 10y
atty to God and ~unwearying compass
sion for poor, weak humanity. AS has
already been suggested, we also see
that the methods of Jesus varied, &C
cording to the individual need and al
ways with the answering purpose of
clarifying God. The same lesson OF
careful conservation of what remained
IS taught as in the case of the feeding
OF the Eve thousand.
