WASPS ARE HARD WORKERS
In Matter Of Industry They Should
Be cIassed With tho Ants
and Bees.

Wasps appear to be well nigh as
industrious as ants or bees. One au-
thority has declared that the cardi-
nal doctrine of the wasps is: eff any
wasp will not work, neither shall he
eat"
Division of labor is clearly seen
in the wasp's nest. Some of the
workers seem to be specially en-
ployed as foragers and soldiers, 9TH
ers appear to be told off as nurses
and guardians, while yet others are
engaged as paper makers and ma
sons.
Wasps are at all times particularly
fond of honey. Toward the end of
summer, as all beekeepers know, they
will force their way into beehives
and carry off by force as much as
they can gorge of their winged
neighbors' honey.
The drones of the wasp world, in
stead of being idle and luxurious,
are sober, industrious and well be-
haved members of the community.
They clean the streets of their town
with exemplary diligence, acting as
public scavengers or sanitary officers.
And they have their reward, for, I'M
like the bee drones, they live their
allotted life in peace and quietness
until winter involves both them and
their maiden sisters in one common
cattaclysm Of death and destruction.

or the water vapor emitted by tho
seas is decomposed by the ultrs-vio-
let rays of the sun; the hydrogen
formed rises toward the high at
mospheric strata, and all the water

Therefore, the quantity of water on
the face of the globe is always di-
minishing and the earth is inces-

To cite one example: On the
north side of the Alps there is con-
tinual falling off in the depth of the

swamps. Two hundred and fifty
years ago there were 149 lakes in the
canton of Zurirch, today there ara

There is no defence offered for the
extensive privileges created by the
tariff preferences through the Repub.

While wealth has accumulated under
these preferences, a fair field and no

We cannot expect remedies from

Mr.. Roosevelt during his entire career

That We do spoil them cannot be de-
MED. The most optimistic OF us must
admit IL. Perhaps the only persons who
will not agree to that statement are the
parents Of over-lndulged children.
When one looks for the reason for this
over-indulgence one thinks at first that
great love on the part Of the mother ac-
counts for II. II so, her love. which may
be great In quantity. is far from per-
feet in quality. The colt that, when
full grown. is TO he used to drag a heavy
wagon, is not left TO run the fields and
do as he likes until the day that he 10 put
into the shafts and hitehed to the cum
bersome vehicle. He is trained gradually
to the harness. then to pulling light
buggy or sulky, and, as his strength In
creases. he becomes used to the greater
ltal effort as a draught horse would
result In general harm-to himself. the
equlpage and harness. and. possibly. to
the indlscreet driver.
our children should be gradually trained
for the work Of life. They must. sooner
or later. submit their Wills to the rule and
direction OF someone above them. II is
nothing short Of cruelty to turn our
young people loose in the world without
drilling them in self-eontroi and proper
submission to authority.
Il am afraid of training my child In
the wrong direction" says one mother
So she does not train her at all. But the
small daughter trains the mother.
Yes, she does-ridiculous as the state
nent may sound. The parent feels I'M
comfortable whenever she Is out little
later than usual IN the afternoon. for
the child at home is so nervous" when
mama does not return at the customary
time that the nurse cannot quiet her and
she weeps stormily until the sound OF
the parents voice proves that the re-
oalcitrant senior has returned and is on
duty. Then the repentent mother gathers
the waillng youngster In her arms and
Apologies for being out 90 iatei
But I love her so dearly that I am
willing to sacrifice my own pleasure and
my social life TO the dear little creature"
she pleads when her friends demonstrate
with her.
But she does not love the child enough
to take the pains to teach her unselfish-
ness and self-oontrol. The mother is
guilty Of a self-abnegation that is ac-
tuslly sinful. and her child will. in years
to come. pay the penalty Of this sin Of
the parent.
We deceive ourselves and call things
by pretty names because we do not
look our motives sauarely In the face.
The mother who spolls her child Is lack
Ing In courage. or is too lazy to disci-
pline her. Years ago ! heard q woman
