INSECT PRODUCTS OF VALUE
Many Small Creatures Make contrlbu-
tons to the country's Wealth Of
No Insignificant Amount.

We have many insect products of no
small value. Most familiar are honey
and wax from the bee.
There Is also a Chinese bug which
secretes. kind of grease on various
trees. This hardens into wax, and is
collected, melted and purified, when it
becomes white and glossy in appear
ance, and when mixed with oil can be
made into candles. The cochineal, a
scale insect living ON cacti in the Amer
lean tronics, besides having medicinal
qualities, yields the two dyes called
carmine and lake. While nowadays
most dyes are chemically made, the
natural dye of the cochineal is en-
ployed in cOloring soldiers uniforms,
as 1t stands the weather better than
commercial dyes, The pupae of Mex
lean black fly which swarms in great
quantities near Lake TeXcoa are used
as fertilizer. No enlargement is need
ed on the work of the precious silk
worm-a native of China which is now
raised here also. Commercial shellac
is obtained by melting lac, the resinous
substance produced by an East Indian
scale insect and deposited in Il crust
on twigS to contain the insect and its
eggs. The export value of lac from
Indian ports in one year has risen as
high as 33,000,C00 rupees. Lac has also
been used to make dyes, but while the
lac industry is growing one, the en-
p!oyment Of lac in making dyes has
probably had its day. The best lac is
obtained from Bengal and the central
province of India. 1t is also used as
stitfening for hats, sealing wax, as an
ingredient of photographic ink, in cleo
trical work and in the manufacture OF
gramophone records.

ENJOY SINGING IN CHORUS
Why Children Should Be Encouraged
to Take Part in Exercises Of
Juvenile Glee Clubs.

Anyone who has watched class Of
sehoolchildren singing their songs to-
gether, or the members of Juvenile
glee club raising their voices in mel
ody, knows to how great an extent chill
dren enjoy expressing themselves mu-
sically. 1t is perhaps one of the few
times when they begin to get an ap-
probation of what concerted action
means in creating strength and power
both for the individual as well as the
group. You seldom get a child to stand
up and sing alone, but place him
among a large group Of children and
note the change in him-the change in
his expression, his bearing and his
whole attitude.
1t is therefore a cause for much en-
conragement to hear the news that peo-
pie are growing interested in commu-
nifty choruSeS for children. The move
ment for grownups has become wide
spread and its good results have been
appreciated by all who have taken an
2ctfve part in it. The question natur-
ally arises, then, why wait until per-
son is grown up before you let him
take part in that which undeniably is
beneficial! to him? Why not give the
child an opportunity to musically ex-
press himself before he has grown too
self, conscious to do it freely?

Dangers for Game Fish.

The great cause OF the decline in tiS'.
life in stream is the pollution of the
stream, and for this there is neithe'
palliation nor excise. A writer in Az
Outdoors says it is true that q broo,
a,r river is convenient place into which
TO throw refuse. The people of mctii-
eval cities thought the same of thciL
streets until plague and pestilcnce
taught them better and inStiileG the
clements of hygiene into their minds.
Such ignorant negligence was a s,sn
If their unenlightenment, yet, with all
of our hoasted civilization, we are but
step in advance when we convert oUr
sparkling streams into noisome sewers.

Mizpah or Mispeh is the name OF
several towns in Palestine. The name
Is derived from verb of the ancient
Hebrew signifying to look or watch
out. The word occurs in several places
in the Old Testament. The first men
ton is the most significant. Jacob and
his prospective fatherin-law Laban
met on a slope of Mt. Gilead and en-
tered into a covenant. Laban had sew
eral times violated his agreement as
to the wages he was paying Jacob
and Jacob demanded fair deal. When
they came to an agreement they raised
a monument of stones, which Labar
declared should be called "Galeed, ant
Mizpah." "This heap shall be wit
ness between me and thee this day
The Lord watch between me and thee
when we are absent, one from the
other" This passage Is used as 9
benediction by the Young Peoples So
ciety of Christian Endeavor.

WHAT FASTING FEELS LIKE
University OF Chicago Professor Has
Made Public the Results Of In
Vesslsations He Has Made.

In numerohs descriptions of the ex-
perieuceS Of man In the course Of
more or less prolonged fasting, one
meets the repeated assertion that aft
or q brief initial period little or no
hunger whatever is felt. Since il has
been well-establiShed that the senSa-
ton Of hunger is induced by certain
type of tonic and peristaltic cOntrac-
tons of the empty or nearly empty
stomach, il must be assumed either
that these contractionS are abolished
as a fast proceeds or that the SenSa-
lions are decidedly modified.
4 professor of the University Of
Chicago has lately had an exceptional
opportunity to investigate these QueS-
ti0aS. AS the result of careful OBJ
servationS on man during prolonged
Intentional starvation, he found that
during the Il days complete fast and
the subsequent eight days of absti-
nence from food with daily ingeStion
of cotton fiber, the gastric hunger con-
fractions Of his subjects continued
with practically normal rhythm and
intensity: but the subjective sensa-
tions induced by the gastric contrac-
tions appeared TO be somewhat weak
ened and tinged with an element of
general epigastric distress or sick
stomach.

SPRING FESTIVAL. IN CHINA
Seginning of the Year Is a Time of
Rejoicing Throughout the
Whole Country.

In the United Sta, eS one knows that
spring has come when lie sees boys
playing marbles and flying kites. In
China, says the Christian Science
Monitor, there are regular spring-play-
ing festivals that all the people have
part in and which are especially in

Just when the spring festival comes
depends on the moon. 1t is the be-
ginning of the year in China, and in
the first moon the magistrates and 9TH
er important persons in the town go
out in procession Ito meet the
spring."
1t is at the lantern festival, the 18th
of the first month, that the children
have the best time. Brightly colored
lanterns are everywhere, at the doors
Of shops and houses, and carried in
professions. Boughs of evergreen are
also placed above the DOORS and there
Is an abundance of "moon cakes" lit.
tie round sweet rice cakes.
The boys dress up in all sorts Of fan.

of them go about through the streets

Writing of the discovery Of coal In
British Columbia, Johnson In his "First
Things in Canada" states: "One day
in December 1S49, an officer Of the
Hudson's Bay company in Fort Vic
toria was informed by the foreman OF
the blacksmith's shop that an old Ma
naimo Indian chief had just stated that
he knew where there was stuff like
that which the white man was using In
the blacksmith's fire. The Indian was
told that if he would bring some pieces
of the stuff he would have his gun
repaired free and receive a bottle OF
rum, The chief reappeared in the fol-
lowing April Q850) with his canoe
laden with coal. A prospecting party
went out and found the coal where the
citv of Nanaimo now stands. In 1874
the production of coal from the Ma
naimo mines amounted to 1000 tons
in 1896 it exceeded 100000 tons.
