DRIVING WAsPs FROM NESTS
Simple Method That ls Even More e.
flcaclous Than the oldtlme Em-
ployment of Fire.

Here's a way to fight wasps that is
commonly practised by government
engineers when out surveying:
On the government surveys the
usual method of getting a big wasp
nest out of the line Is to set fire to
some moss placed in the fork of a long
limb, and thus burn the nest up. The
wasps fly madly out in practically
straight lines, and all the men fall
down on the ground.
Recently. however, to the surprise OF
the engineers in charge Of survey. a
native. woodsman showed far easier
and much more peculiar method. He
took the long machete. or knife used
in chopping small trees and under
brush, and rubbed the blade of it under
his arm backward and forward few
times, and then placed 1t quickly on
the bottom Of the nest. Then an as.
founding thing happened-al all the
wasps seemed seized with panic and
few quickly away. The odor of human
perspiration seemed to have greater
effect on them than the smoke.
OF course it is a we'll known fact
that to some animals the odors of 9th.
er animals are unbearable; even dif.
ferent races of men have their distinct
i've odors, and some are unpleasant to
others. 1t is safe to assume that the
odor of eiaA to the wasp is as unbear
able as Che odor of the skunk to man
Anyhow, this method of fighting wasps
has been adopted almost to the exclu'
sion of previous methods by the par
ticular engineer who saw the safe and
sure effect of its trial; but it takes
some little nerve to do it.-Illustrated

MUST BE LEARNED IN YOUTH
Always Difficult to Acquire New Ian
suaue When Once Manhood Has
Been Reached.

The time to learn a language Nis
when you are young, the younger tine
better This is the advice of writer
In the Atlantic. We learn our own
language as children. The older we
grow the harder 1t is. because 1t
means not merely learning by heart
a great many words, not merely train
ing the palate and tongue to produce
different sounds, but adopting a Lew
attitude Of mind
Nothing definite has been discovered
as to the localization OF faculties In
the brain, therefore nothing certain
is known, but it has always seemed to
me and to others whom have con-
suited that when you learn new Ian
guage you are exercising and devel-
oping a new piece of brain which ac-
centuates your tongue. You switch
off. one center and switch ON another.
You win always notice in yourself
and others that there is definite
pause when the change of language
is made. Now it becomes every wear
more difficult TO awaken an unused
part of the brain and bring 1t into
active use. and to begin at twenty
three is late.

About the Panama Canal History

When the Panama canal was opened
to the worlds commerce it crowned a
series of more than score of inter
esting points in the history of the
isthmus. As briefly told, they are:
First crossing of the Isthmus. By
Balboa who, on Sept. %, 1913. much to
his surprise. found himself gazing
upon the Pacific Ocean after % days
journey on foot.
First ships to cross the Isthmus:
In 1914. Balboa and his men carried
two small ships, piocemeal, across the
Isthmus. intending to use them for
further exploration in the Pacific
First settlement of Old Panama, in
1917, to become known la-er for a
time as the richest city in the world.
First regular traffic across Isthmus:
The spoils of conquest sent back to
Spain from Peru, which became so
heavy that highways paved with stone
were laid for the pack trains.
First thought of a canal: Credited
to Salvadera, a Spanish engineer, one
of Balboa's followers, who was about
to forward his plans to King Charles
V of Spain when the latter died.
First surveys for canal: In 1881
by Spanish engineers who deemed the
project possible of accomplishment

They quoted from the Bible: What
God hath joined together, let no man
put asunder." Accordingly, the pro-
ject was put on the shelf for three
centuries.
