Locusts as Food Date Back to the Days of John
 the Baptist, and Others

It was not necessary for a learned entomologist in the Johns Hopkins fac ulty to prove the edibility of locusts by eating few of them and surviving the experiment. For unnumbered centu- ries these insects have been an occa- sional, but considerable, part of the diet of millions of people in several parts of the world, and if ever those people hear of the Johns Hopkins mans exploit they will smile superforly and wonder at the belatedness of his au- dacity. The history of John the Bap- tfst is not the oily recorded instance in which empirical persons have anti cipated the scientist.
 Of course, locusts are edible; so are hundreds of other insects-thousands of them, probably-and it might not be at all injudicious at this time, when so much of the worlds population is going hungry, if more attention were bestowed on what Is, after all the largest of new food sources. Still, the locusts in this country are not in much danger as a result of the professors revelation, even though he does say that they taste like shrimp.

Y0UNGsTER WAS A DIPLOMAT
After His Explanation, What Was There for the "SIender" School
 mistress to Dor

The principal of a certain Indiana school Is very thin. Also she is very sensitive about this quality. At her school no one mentions it.
 Recently several of her boys had a long series of quarrels with the boys Of the neighboring ward school. The principal talked and talked against fighting, but with no results. The fighting continued. Finally, one day, she announced that she would give the combatants at her school thrashing if any more frays followed A long time and all was quiet. Then one day came the usual fight. Then one day came the usual fight and, of course, the inevitable lining up for the ''lickin'."
 Before punish you, want you to tell me what you were fighting about this time," the principal told the recreant ones.
 All were silent, but finally the least fighter spoke up. "Well, the boys up at that building leased up and said that we had the skinniest principal in town, and we told them you weren't skinny at all, but slender, and then they began fighting"
 Needless to say no one got thrashed.

MOSQUITOES Pest Which Causes Suffering and -. Annovance 55a-
 - >zF

Mosquitoes are mans inveterate tor mentors and foes. At the seaside, on the undratned prairfes of the West and Northwest, in the far North, by wood land pool and mountain meadow these bloodthirsty brigands in countless myriads way1ay the individual on busi- ness or pleasure bent.
 Swamps, ponds and marshes, how ever, are not the only places which breed mosquitoes. A little rain water in an old tin can or undrained roof gutter, if neglected, will supply mos quitoes for a town or city nefghbor- hood, spreading discomfort, causing insomnia and tempting to profanity. \
 If mosquitoes were merely bother some plague, there would be ample Justification for unrelenting' warfare against them, but when it is consid- cred that several species scattered over the United States disseminate ma 1aria, rendering many regions of great fertility almost uninhabitable, and that one kind of mosquito found in the South will convey yellow fever, no ar gument for fighting them is necessary.

HARD TO TRACE ITS DESCENT
Story of the Standard Yard and It's Origin Must Be Accepted With
 Some Reservation.

The picturesque story of the rela- tfon between the length of Henry Is arm and the standard yard which the lord chancellor will disinter from the walls of Westminster palace Is one we should all like to accept, writes a correspondent of the Manchester Guardian. But the historical stand- ards have changed so often that there must be many gaps in the chain of descent. If the yard and the pound are as described they must be exact copies of the less romantic standards of the board of trade, which date from no later than 1884. And why prOsy Vfctorians should have buried them in a wall Is hard to understand. The oldest standard in existence, so far as I know, Is the yard of Henry VII, which should be in the Jewel house, bat as it has only 35.993 inches it is no longer good measure. Parliament had a standard troy pound and a new yard constructed in 176O. They were de- posted with the clerk to the house of commons, but in the fire of 1884 the pound was lost and the yard injured. This yard was then lost sight of until 1891, when it was placed in the lobby of the clerks residence, together with a standard ''stone" of IA pounds.

LoWly Angle Worm an Aid in FertiIizing the Soil,
 an Authority Declares

That the deSptsed angle worm, which for ages has been the choice food of the robin, the terror of Little Miss Muffets" and the joy of fishermen, has all this time been working for the benefit of mankind without any par. ticular credit is an interesting fact brought to light.
 According to Prof Frank Smith of the University of Illinois, who is an authority in this country on angle worms, most of the real grounds for complaint against the angle worm is due to an introduced species which is common in the northern tier of states There are few infected areas, some of which have their origin traced back to accidental importation by the traIS- plantation of trees from northern nli- nots. These worms are of large size and have the habit of pulling leaves and small twigs into the mouths of their burrows, and together with the earth brought up by them, they form the little mounds which make the sur face of a lawn quite rough, and hence they make moving more difficult.
 Professor Smith states that apart from the roughness of the surface of a lawn, the results of their work is doubtless beneficial. An earth worm makes it's burrow from one to three feet in depth, these burrows providing means for conveying surface water to deeper layers, and also for aerating these layers. In this work they have been important agents in making the soil fertile through the years.

John Henry Remembered.

John Henry, recently graduated from the infants class in Sunday school is the source of much pride to his par ents on account of his rather remark able ability to memorize easily. He seldom fails to repeat the text. One Sunday the lesson had been taken from the twenty third Psalm "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want, he maketh me lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.
 Early the following Monday morn ing, before the sun had dried the grass off the dew, the little tot, literally wal lowing on the lawn, was discovered by his mother. -..........-

Dancing, Saturday Night Program for Haitians in
 Their Little Villages

Dancing to the music of drum, sax ophone and flute is the chief source of amusement for Haitians in their little villages on Saturday night, according to an article by William Almon Wolff in Golfers Weekly. Beginning at sun" down every Saturday night, he writes, one will come to a wine shop, if one follows the sound of the drum. The drummer sits outside. His unceasing drumming marks the rhythm of the music; what melody there is, is borne by flute, and almost always there Is a saxophone. The music is the same at every dance. It is in common time 1; a single cadence is repeated, over and over again. <.f
 Dancing in Haiti resembles the satur- nalia among the Australian aborigines, Mir. Wolff writes. The dancers are frank and unashamed, and one gets little or no feeling of a personal note between the two one sees dancing rather they are staging spectacle.

Loganberry Juice May Soon
 Become Popular Among the - "Soft" Drinks in Demand

"Soft drinks"-"soft" in slang mean ing 'easy to get''-may attain new im- portance. Soft drinks made from fruit juices doubtless will attract many new devotees, who will find that bev- erages made from pure fruit juices are decidedly heaIthful, cooling, refresh ing and invigorating, says the United States department of agriculture.
 Because of its pleasant flavor, the juice of the Logan blackberry, com monly known as the loganberry, is very popular as beverage. The berry is also used in making jams, jellies and soda-fountain SirupS. Methods of extracting and treating the juice are constantly being bettered. This in dustry, already large one, is growing rapidly
 Loganberry juice is naturally so sour that it is necessary both to dilute and to sweeten it to obtain a drinkable article. The berry has characteristic flavor. It somewhat resembles that of the raspberry, both red and black, but is more acid than either.
 Adding enough sugar to reduce suf1- cient1y the tartness of the juice makes a product too sirupy to drink, unless it is diluted at tie same time. The sirup prepared for Roda-fountain use is not diluted until sold over the counter. Some of the sweetened but undiluted juices have been labeled by manufac- turers as concentrated" This de- scription is unwarranted, as the juices have not been concentrated or evapo- rated, but simply sweetened. They should be properly labeled as logan berry sirups.

Swallows Feed Almost
 Entirely Upon Insects

If you want to free the neighborhood of mosquitoes, encourage swallows to make themselves at home, says a re- port of the American Forestry asso- citation. These birds feed almost en- tirely upon obnoxious insects and they will do much toward protecting or chards and other trees from insect pests. No better investment can be made, therefore, than some houses set out for martins or other swallows. Of the blue swallows the purple martin is the largest, the male being entirely blue above and below, while the female is blue above with gray breast. Swal- lows are highly migratory, most of them spending the winter in South America.

LOVE IN A COTTAGE

They may talk of love in a cottage, And bowers of trellised vine Of nature bewitchingly simple, And milkmaids half divine; They may talk of the pleasure of sleeping In the shade of a spreading tree, And walk in the fields of morning, By the side of a footstep free! But give me sly irritation By the light of chandelier With music to play in the pauses, And nobody very near: Or seat on a silken sofa, With glass of pure old wine, And mamma too blind to discover The small white hand in mine. Your love in a cottage is hungry, ! Your vine is nest of flies Your rnilkmafd shocks the graces, And simplicity talks of piesi You lie down to your shady slunber And wake with bug in your ear, And your damse1 that walks in the morn
 ing
 Is shod like nountaineer. True love is at home on a carpet, And nightly likes his ease And true love has an eye for dinneRs And starves beneath shady trees. His wing is the fan of lady, His foot's an invisible thing, And his arrow is tipped with jewel And shot from a silver string.
