L labor.

Labor IS the contest OF the life OF
man with an opposite. Literally 1t Is
the quantity or lapse, loss or failure OF
human life, caused by any effort 1t
IS usually confused with effort itself
or the application Of power, but there
IS much effort which is merely n mode
of recreation or Of pleasure. The most
beautiful actions Of the human body
ana the highest results Of the human
intelligence are conditions or achieve
mcnts OF quite unlaborlous--na OF
rcCrcatlve-cifOrt. 1t IS the negative
quantIty-or quantity of defeat
which has to be counted against ev-
cry feat and Of defect which has to
be counted against every fact or deed
Of men. In brief, 1t Is that quantity
Of our toll which we die in."-John

Grasshopper Glacier.

Grasshopper glacier, at the headwa-
tiers Of the East and West Rosebud riv-
crs in the Beartooth mountains OF
Montana, derived its name from the
myriads of grasshoppers imbedded IN
the perpetual ice of that nelghborhood.
Many of the specimens are as perfect
as If preserved in alcohol for exhibi-
ton. In the opinion of scientists who
made n first hand study of the glacier
the insects were caught In a periodic
southwark fight and succumbed to the
cold In their attempt to cross the noun
tain range. The huge ice mass, under
whose crust the grasshoppers are bur
led, Is virtually under the shadow Of
Granite peak, 12,SI2 feet high, the high
est in Montana. Only recently has its
existence as a perpetual glacier been
verified though as long rs forty years
ago It was additionally known in early
Montana mining camps and mountain
towns. 1t was considered then merely
n fanciful tale Of pioneer prospectors
and fur trappers who had penetrated
to the upper reaches of this branch OF
the rugged ockies.-Argonaut.
