HOW INSECTS WALK ON WATER
Hairs on Their Fest lneloss Enough,
Air TO Enable Thorn to
] S Float. III.

Even . solid rod Of iron may. Be
made to float provided it Il small
enough. Take hne needle, wipe It
with an oily rag. but do not leave any
visible trace Of oil on 1t, and then
lay 1t gently on the surface Of water
in basin. It will float and continue
to float for some little time.
Tho cause Of this IL the fact that
. quantity Of air sdheres to the needle
SUFFICIENT to buoy it up. Moreover. AZ
the cohesion between the particles Of
water ID considerable, and AZ water
has no attraction for perfectly dry
piece Of steel. the cohesion Of the wa
ter II greater than the weight Of
metal, and 70 the latter 10 supported.
& In the same way insects are en-
abled to walk upon the water. The
hairs on the end-6f their feet inclose
an amount Of air that enables them
to float. AZ each foot is put down It
forms sort Of cup-like depression in
the water. and the liquid thus dis
placed Is sufficient to doat the insect.

are being filled and considerable corn
put in shocks. Seed corn is being Sc
cured in many localities, and that
work will be general during the COM
ing week. The wet weather has also
prevented much threshing being done,
and considerable grain in shocks and
stacks is reported to be badly dam
aged. The soil is in excellent condl-
ton for blowing, and where the rain
fall was not too heavy fall seeding
progressed rapidly. Pastures, mea'-

Benevolent Muia.

A farmer once bought mule at the
market and named It Tough Hide, for
it looked as II It had been accustomed
to more blows than food. He put the
animal in his little clover field, and
this it seemed to enjoy very much.
One morning Tough Hide saw troop
Of asses coming down the lane. look
ing rather thin. He asked them II
they would like q nice feed Of sweet
clover. "Ah, wouldn't vel" brayed
the asses.
So the mule with his teeth drew out
the STAPLE which fastened the gate
and let them in. Soon after the farm
er passed by, and saw the animals
eating his clover, 20 he got . cudgel
and drove them all out. He not only
gave the asses q sound thrashing, but
he thrashed Tough Hide as well.
Moral-Generosity is good thing.
but ought not to be practiced with
other peoples property.

family In ten can afford to hire .
cook, and in the far west such per-
son is seldom obtainable, at any price.
Now, by the hreless cooker all women
who have to prepare their own meals
will be emancipated from the hot
stove slavery, which is particularly
cruel in our sultry summers. It
makes 1t possible for them to cook
breakfast, luncheon and dinner at the
same time, in perhaps an hour. leav-

work. Broiling, steaming, stewing,
baking, frying, neutrality-suspicious.,
