Says Ants Do Not co-operate.

M. Cornetz. a practised observer of insect life asserts that ants know nothing of cooperation In their social life. In proof he cites an experiment which any one can repeat. Offer an ant a piece of cheese shaped like a shuttle; it seizes the tip, turns it about and starts dragging 1t in the di. rection of its nest. Other ants arrive and seize the cheese by it's sides. It continues to advance but more slowly. There is no united effort; each ant IS trying to turn the crumb of cheese around, If we chase off the ants on the right the cheese will turn to the right, for the other ants are pushing 1t. Chase off those on the left and it turns to the left for the same reason, Chase off the one that is pulling 1t and 1t stands still, for the ants on each side counteract each other.
 M. Cornetz holds this proof that each ant is acting for himself alone.

Curing Wood.

Wood has contagious diseases! A stick of wood in lumber yard may be sick and infect other timbers, which later may develop the disease when they are supporting weights in new building. Some of the diseases are so contagious that in a building they will jump several feet across masonry or brick to some stick of healthy wood. Cures were recently discussed by the American Society of Mechanical En- gineers,
 Most of the diseases are varieties of dry rot caused by a fungus, and most of the varieties of dry rot fungus can- not stand heat much over 100 degrees :; so the most likely cure is to close a building up tight, if any beams are in. fected. and heat it up to 120 or 40 de- grees. Even this is not always sue. cessful, for ends of beams are buried in the outer brick walls and the heat may not reach them.-Saturday Eve ming Post.

GIVE THIS 4 LITTLE THOUGHT
There Is a Point to This Imported Joke, But Perhaps You Will Have
 To Look for t.

This is not an American joke. The reader is solemnly warned that 1t is of German extraction. Germans, as everybody knows like their jests broad and brutal. The victim of this one was Cousin Hugo.
 It seems Cousin Hugo made c night of it and got home as the small hours began to cease to be so small. AS he climbed the stairs he stumbled Gin spite of the most elaborate care) and rolled down into the hall below The consequence, for Cousin Hugo is not so young as he used to be, was brok- en collarbone and 8 strained back. Ahead even of the milkman, then, came the family doctor an estimable old gentleman, and administered soothing words while he encased the patient in plaster,
 T know, my dear sir" he said, "that it hurts like the deuce, but it is not a bit dangerous. All the same you'll have to stay in bed for while. You got a nasty fall. How did it happen Was it dark?"
 Tt was not, doctor" replied Cousin Hugo with some asperity, Tt was light"
 But perhaps you are not a beer drinker-New York Evening Post

TYPICAL DINNER IN FRANCE
Princess Hassan Tells or "ea' anu It's Service in the Land or
 True Epicures.

tvDical French dinner-not an exceptional one, mark you, put such q dinner as a small tradesman's tam iIv would have--is .ncomparaoiy SUI oerior to the plain roast dinner
 There would be, first of all, few raltsbes, according to the season or the year. Radshes, ice cold, sardlnes' olives. caviar. Just a little Of each with which to awaken the appetite then the soup to excite gently the lfouids of the throat and stomach, then a little entree-usually a bit Of fish with it's appropriate vegetable or q handful of vegetables favored with meat sauce Then, and not tlli then. does the chief course appear.
 It may be a roast, or game, or chicken. or chops, but In no case Will 1t be anything which is not ln mar n1ony with the previous courses and It will be eaten in moderation, for the edge of the diners appetite will nave hepn dulled by the lighter foods which have preceded it. With it comes the salad-varied throughout the year by all the possible changes of the sea son, and never, never by any possi- bility will it be such a dreadful green l hybrid as the romaine, strawberry and green pepper thing. After the salad there will be fruit or mellow cheese, and then coffee. It will take two hours to eat such dinner but 1t will take only half what the typical American dinner costs to pay for it, and there will be no indigestion aft erward no matter of what the din ner is omposed.-Princess Hassan in an Interview by Louise Rice in the Delineator.
