I was Hterally drenched with ink, which was thrown from a of at least three feet. ngriecemeyat and I still have the vouchers in the way stained linen.” Here the naturalist took down a drawer la- belied “‘Myrmeleon,” and said: “Here is not only a plotter, but a diagram ofits trap. The pensity seems bred in the bone, as it is ind in by the young insects. When first hatchedthe insect seeks out @ soft soil on some miniature sandy plain. It wrally holds its head in place at one point, while its body is whirled about like a.palr of divitiers. This the insect begins throwing out the sand; some is'carried, but the greater part is removed oL a plan that at least shows an attempt at labor saving. With a quick Movement the worker shovels a load upon its head.and by a backward upward jerk is it far out of the excavation. If a pepble orstone ia met with it ls tossed out in the same way. Massea half as largeas the worker being hurled over a foot away. When alargestoneis encountered the intelligence displayed is remarkuble. The en- gineer seems to know that the rock can’t be |, and so he carefully rolis it upon hishead and proceeds to climb up the incline ot the pit. Naturally the stone would roll off of any in- cline, but to avert this the insect ltts ite tail hizh in alr, and so crawls up the side with the stone oma perfect level. Ihave seen them try astone ten or fifteen times, and then give it upand select another location. After the pit ig completed It represents the cast of an in- verted cone, and at the bottom the Insect con- ceals itself, leaving only its two enormous jaws protruding. You see here on this di the whole tragedy is enacted. We will suppose that this ant is the Czar on the way to corona- tion. He rushes along, comes to the pit with his attendants, some on the slides, and goes rolling down into the mouth ot the living or nihilist trap below. when half way down the ant regains a foothold, and seems in a fair way to escape, but the trap-maker throws off all concealment, quickly shovels sand upon its head, and buris load after toad at th® victim, who rolls down helpiees into his cnemy’s jaws and is destroyed. When tho bas sucked the biood, he unceremoniously hoists the remains upgp his head and throws them out eager te ames ‘The pit is then repaired for the ma. victim. “Among the animal workers all occupations are found. Take a colony of bees, for instance. In @ nest one set of bees are ordinary laborers, and form the rough eelis. A set of skilled laborers then take hold and shape the cells, and soon. Among the ants the workers not only have their share of work to do, but they differ from the others in shape and general appearance, the king, queens, end la- borers being all markedly different in appear- ance. The soldiers have enormous jaws, but never work. They rush out fiercely when you break into anest. Ifthe enemy is not visible they returo, and the laborers come out and be- gin repairs. The army ants of South America show great intelligence. The workers, like our Sappers and miners, often go ahead ahd form e| protective arch, tder which the soldiers march ; and so rapidly is this thrown up that the on- ward march is not delayed. The ants are also slave owners. They caj ants of other species and force them to work for them and ‘{ attend them as bedy servants. So luxurious do some of these slave owners become that they are ufterly helpless when deprived of their me- niats. The latter not only wait on their masters, but teed them. If the slaves are taken away their owners perish. “Ants are farmers. In Texas a tribe col- lect the seeds of various plants and plant them in close proximity to their homea, eo that they can benefit by the seed. The farmer or grain ants of Europe store up vast supplies in under- ground granarics. After a damp season the seeds are taken out and laid in the sun and finally returned.” Neral is it the seeds don’t sprout?” asked the reporter. “That's the most wonderful part of it. The seeds don’t sprout, though there el ee ed underground and kept fresh. Itis supposed oe the — bite pe seeds eee ‘way 60 that ey are in a state of coma, as wasps sting animals so that they remain insensible for months. Ants may be said also to keep cows— not exactly Durhams, but insects that answer the sane purpose. They collect the plant lice, and, by caressing them in some way, force or induce them to give out or exude a drop ot sweet liquor. I have seen five oraix ants awalt- ing their turn to milk one of these cows. The ants often collect the caper the aphides, place them on plants near thelr homes, and care for them in many ways, just as we do for our blocd- ed stock. Inthe tall ante have been known to take their cows under ground and try to keep them through the winter. Many ants keep bee- tles gnd other insects as some as play- fellows. others on account of their odor. Sev- eral hundred distinct species of insects are in this way kept prisoners under ground. “In eering the ants are.equally skillful. ‘They bridge wide rivers by Joining together their bodies, clinging one to another, and thus form- ing a long string that the wind blows across the stream. In this way a bridge is formed over which an entire army ied “James, James,” cries a shrill yoice from another room. ; “That’s my mother-in-law.” whispered the naturalist, confidentially; ‘‘she's the one excep- tion. There isn't her prototype in the entire animal kingdom.” “James, if you think I’m going to allow my be used to cultivate daughter's piano cover to moths on, you are mistaken.” A florid-faced, much Heniepitlleend fa burst into the room, |. upon ing the reporter, withdrew as if jaked om behinae - el “It's impossible,” sald the imperturbable man of science, “to impress woman with the fact that it’s ever a to make any sacrifice in the cause of science. I've been cultivating those moth cocoons all winter, in hopes of a glorious harvest this spring, but there they go at one fell swoop. They might call esthetic feeling among the lower animals. That piano cover was of mixed colors, and, between you and me, I placed the worms there last fall merely to see if they showed any preterence for color, and they certainly did. Over half selected red threads in making their winter nests, and all were evidently in favor of decoration, as they selected the brightest colors, the worms seemingly going out of their way to select them. “Here is the tube of amarine worm. Yousee it was first formed of finely ground pieces of sand—tn fact, of anything that the animal could get hold of, just as inner walling of a house is made of rough material; but when it comes to the exterior, there sa chance for decoration. As the builder uses finer woods for the outside, 80 the worm has applied all these delicate shells, 80 that the tube seems made up of them. Here is another shell called the Phorus, found in Jap- nese waters. It affects large bivalve shelis,and in some way sticks them about its shell. Now, if the animal had no taste, the first old shell or stone that came along would be used; but, as you see, nothing but these shells are used. Here's another and a fossil, showing that ehells did the same thing millions of years ago. “Many birds have the decorative ‘instinct. Certain ohes in Africa are said to fasten fire flies to their nests that gleam at night like so mauy diamonds. Another African bird bites off all its tail feathers except the tip of the longest pane and thus gives itself a jaunty air. The ‘ornbills color their feathers artificially from certain glands. A family of birds found in Aus- tralia, and allied to the birds of paradise, bring shells and other objects miles from the sea and decorate their play houses with them. Some fancy curious bones, others shells, and others prefer fresh flowers. “ Now, as to builders. ‘The architectural abii- ity of birds almost equals that ot man. Some nests, like those ofa West Indian blackbird, aré hotels, and are built by several birds, who ait afford an example of what you | Seat on or all of be A la there are fists by the tailor the residences areeide by side and a Amotig the other workers is the lead, but no one knows how.

New Yorkers have been much interested ouna, which are chronicled inthe London World. Evidently Mr. Bennett was very much exhilara- ted by French air. Zife on board the Namouna must have all the elements and uncertainty as to what may become of them next. Mr. Bennett is sald to make his guests comfortable by play- ing on them with a fire hose and raising a mock alarm uf fire, also to insist on the whole crew getting roaring drank upcn pain of instant dis- miseal if he is not obeyed. But in this last tipsy Holt he has Himself. The gravit FAST ae ay Tet is ffeved assistance from the Frenchman must good ase play, for “Jim's” phe- ipparent) at such times is One New Year's day Bennett arrived at the Union Club towards night, having made many calls. He sat down in a chair, and observing that some members of the club were presenting Peter, the venerable porter of the club, with @5 bills as New Year's presents, he called him over and eo nd down into one of his pockets brought upa i “Peter, my friend," he sald, without looking at the bill, “take that.” “Thank you, sir,” said Peter, his eyes glisten- tng at the sigtt of a $20 bill. nett gazed at himfor & second, said sleep- ily, “wait Peter,” and diving down into another ket brought up another bill. “Take that, Peter.” This formance went.on for fully five min- utes. Every time that the astonish at- tempted to retire he was called back, and the presentation of every kind of bill from @1 to went onto thé amusement of the specta- tors. When no more bills came forth Bennett stopped and went away... Peter asked some of the members what he had best do with his hat- full of money. He was ativised to ask Mr. Ben- nett the next time he came whether he had not ven him by mistake more than he had in- nded. So the next day when Bennett ap- peared Peter said to him:- “Mr. Bennett, I think you gave me more of a stent Year's present than you intended last Bennett looked at him for a few seconds, not having the glimmer of an idea of how much he Lig given. or whethershe had given anything “How touch did § give you, Peter?” “Eight hundred dallars, sir.” The position was @ delicate one, but not so much so to a man with an income of a million a year astoan ordinary mortal. “That was the amount I intended for you, Peter,” said Bennett without a sign of annoyance.—Leller in Charles- ton News ond Courier, Egee qs Food. From the Boston Journal of Chemistry. . Eggs, at average prices, are among the cheap- est and most nutritious articles ofdiet. Like mi'k, an egg is acomplete food in Itself, con- taining everything necessary for the devolop- ment ofa perfect animal, asis manifest from the fact that a chick is formed from It. It seems amystery how muscles, bones, feathers, and everything that a chicken requires for its per- fect development, are made from the yelk and white of anegg: but such is the fact, and it shows how complete a food an egg is. It is also easily digested, ifnot damaged In cooking. Indeed, there is no more concentrated and nourishing food than eggs. The albumen, oll. and saline matter are, asin milk, inthe right proportion for sustaining animallife. Two or three bolled eggs, with the addition of a slice ortwo of toast, wvill make a breakfast sufficient for aman, and gvod enough for a king. According to Dr. Edward Smith, in his treatise on ‘‘Fuod,” an egg weighing an ounce and tl ers contains 120 grains of carbon and 17¢ grains of nitrogen, or 15.25 per cent of carbon and 2 per cent, of nitrogen. The value of one pound otegg, as food for sustainin; the active forees of the body, is to the value of ped gece of lean beef _ “poche hgcoiete a lesh progucer, one of eggs is about equal to one pound of Dest Ahen may be calculated to consume one bushel of corn yearly, and to lay ten dozen or fifteen pounds of eggs. This is equivalent to saying that.three and one-tenth pounds of corn will produce, when fed toa hen, five-sixth ofa pound of eggs; but five-sixth of a pound of pork require about five pounds of cora for its production. Taking into account the nutriment in each and the comparative prices of the two onan average, the pork is about three times as costly @ food asthe eggs, while it is certainly less heaithfal. pce vealiee rail Waste Paper in China. From London Nature. Litera scripta manet is a phtase which is lt- erally true of China. It-is generally mentioned in popular books on that country that the re- spect for paper on which any words are writtéh is so great that scavengers are specially em- ployed to collect it in the streets and preserve it. Whatever doubt existed on this score must now be set at rest, for ina rocent iasue of the Peking Gazetle we find a memorial to the throne from the police censor of the central di- vision of the capital, reporting that there are in that city over eighty establishments tor the re- manufacture of waste . Paper with cha- racters on it, the memorialist complains, used to be mixed up with the waste paper and de- filed by being applied to such base uses. The memorialist and hie. colleagues clamations embodying the Emperor Kang-hi, ‘that in heaven and earth there is nothing more precious than written characters. : Shopkeepers were torbid- den to traffic in printed or written paper, and the manu! were ordered to pick out all such paper from among the waste paper pur- chased by them, and send it to the offices, where a certain amount per pound would be paid for it. Two temptes were selected where this paper could be properly burned periodically. ‘The police magi ‘on inguiry find that now the manufacturers have some idea of the rev- erence Kw to waite chasaeterss but some = manent means of supporting the expenses of the purchase and ssered a of destruction should be established, as at present the me- morialist has to pay them out of his own pocket. He further su; that the sale of the house furniture of a certain criminal, though they will not fetch much, will be sufficient, if put out af-interest, to meet these.expenses; and he further requests that the sale of written paper to manufacturers be forbidden. The imperial rescript on this me- morial has not come to our notice; but in all probability the escaped criminal’s house and furniture are now employed in eae | the defilement of the fliegende Blatter” of Peking. ————_+.. ____ A DESPERATE Lover.—Jack Bradley, a dis- carded lover, entered the residence’ of White Thursday morning at Bast.
