Lazy Birds.

The mound fowls" of Australia
and New Guinea construct mounds
of decayed leaves for their nests.
In these the eggs are laid and COW
cred over with the same material.
The warmth engendered by the de-
composition of the leaves causes the
eggs to hatch, and the young in due
time burrow their way out to life
and the open air. These birds are
regarded as the --LATEST of all the
feathery kingdom. Next to them
come the common blackbirds OF
America for laziness. These black
birds never build nests of their own,
but lay their eggs in the nests Of
other birds and leave them to be
hatched by foster mothers. This Is
an unfortunate imposition on the
smaller birds, as the blackbird's
young is so large when first Matched
that be soon crowds the smaller
birds out of the nest and has it all

A STRIKING CONTRAST.
Entering the United States Senate and
the House Of Lords.
Wisdom OF the Young.

When a senator is elected in the
United States he sends his creden-
tials on in advance. They are pre-
scented by his colleague, read from
the desk and filed in the secretary's
Office unless some objection is
raised, when they are sent to the
committee on privileges and cleo
tons for examination. When a SEN
ator elect appears he steps quietly
up to the clerks desk, escorted by
his colleague, takes an oath to sup
port the constitution Of the United
States and is then led to a desk. Oh
the outer row, which bis colleague
has selected for him, where he re-
ceives the congratulations of his
| friends and introductions to the
senators who care to make his ac-
quaintance. He looks as wise as
may be and waits for adjournment,
when he goes to the secretary's Of
fee, writes his autograph in big
red book for the use of the cashier
and draws his mileage.
In the English house of lords the
proceedings are very different. a
newly created peer enters that his
toric chamber in a robe of scarlet
velvet trimmed with ermine, at
tended by two fellow peers, who act
as his sponsors and escorted by the
black rod, as the sergeant-at-arms
is known, and the garter king at
arms, arrayed in gorgeous tabard.
The procession marches around,
making low bows to the empty
throne and to the presiding officer,
who is the lord high chancellor,
from different parts of the gilded
chamber, to which that imposing
person gravely responds. When the
new peer reaches the throne he
kneels reverently and places upon
the empty chair, where his majesty
ought to be sitting, the patent of
nobility he has received from his
sovereign. He is then led to the
woolsack, where the lord chancellor
administers to him the oath. His
sponsors next lead him to the prop
ar bench, where he takes his seat
for a moment. Then all three rise
and bow three times at the vacant
throne and three times to the pre-
siding officer. The lord high chan
cellor then leaves the woolsack and
comes down to shake hands with the
new peer and welcome him to the
house. The other peers come also
and tender their congratulations.

WONDERFUL MOVING VIM

Phercmena CT 8 a

FheEcmena CT re-
Near the bank OF the uuadalu
river / saw something green upon
the ground and, hurrying forward.
found lovely vine with leaves
smaller than those of the smilax.
of a pale, tender green. The vine
had its root about five feet from tn,
trunk of towering cottonwooo
tree and spread out on the ground
four or five inches wide, becoming
a little narrower as it approached
the tree. | could see no stems OF
tendrils, so thick was the growth.
and as | drew close to the tree sap
that the vine branched just above
the ground and went climbing "
the great trunk and the branches
1t grew more and more slender an
til far up could distinguish only a
threadlike line of green.
AS / stood intently watching the
delicate, graceful vine, ] became
aware that it was pervaded by a
curious, tremulous motion. Then
! saw that the individual leaves
were not stationary. Picking up e
twig from the ground, l touched
one of the leaves and found to my
amazement that there was a brown
ant under it about as long as my
little finger nail. Each leaf was
held in the mandibles of an ant in
such way as to conceal the body Of
the insect, and the ants were coming
down the tree. The discovery came
upon me with a shock. L had stun
bled on a nest of umbrella ants.
Books had told me that such ants
were found in the tropics, where
they carried bits of leaves over their
heads as if to protect themselves
from the sun. But mere, on the
banks of Texas river, | had found
a colony of them, shading them
selves where there was no sun and
completely hidden by their covering
of green.
Charmed at the sight, l turned
back to call my companions, who
were fishing in the river. Within a
few yards l met my husband coming
to look for me. He was even more
excited over the phenomenon than /
was and shouted for the others to
come quickly. On investigation we
found that the spot where the vine
seemed to have its root was really
the opening of the ant nest. The
tiny creatures had by some instinct
learned that the topmost branches
of the cottonwood had put out their
first. small,eaves. They had climb
ed the immense distance and had
cut off and brought down their
leaves-to feed1their young ones,
We supposed. fhe ants which is
sued empty jawed from the nest
made long circuit to the farther
side of the tree and climbed up
where they would not interfere will
the leaf bearing thousands coming
down.-St. Nicholas.

The Color Of Flames.

Many people have noticed WITH
much interest the many tinted bars
and bands that rise in the shape o.
"forked tongues of fame" from
wood burning in a fire. These va
ried hues are the result of combus-
ton from the different elements OF
the fuel. The light blue is from
the hydrogen and the white from
the carbon. The violet is from the
