ANTS THAT GROW MUSHROOMS. insects Make Excellent Gardeners in South America. Prof. J. R. Ainsworth Davis gives Jatest proofs of the ant’s right to our applause,.says the Philadelphia Rec- ord. He says: “In tropical America the traveler in their native region oft en sees thousands of ants marching in column of route, each holding in its powerful jaws a piece of green leat about the size of a sixpence. These they take to their nests. The material is used as an elaborate sort of mush- reom culture, requiring much more skill and intelligence than that in which human beings engage. The mushroom: grower sets spawn in the beds he prepares, but the ant dces not need to do this. The desired jpawn soon makes its appearance in the chewed leaf. Lut in its natural state {t Is inedible and must undergo care ful treatment before it yields the mushroom which the azt desires. The meccssary work is dene by a special caste of gardener ants. These weed out the obnoxious germs, ete., and, pruning off the tips of the threads, preventing them from growing into the air and producing useless toad- stools. As a result of this the tareads swell into innumerable little rounded white thickenings, each of which is about one-fiftieth of an inch across. It is these which are the mushrooms. These curious bodies constitute the sole food of the ant—or, at any rate the chief food. =F GAIL HAMILTON'S LITLE JOKE. Remarkatle Testimonial Given Depart- ing Hired Girl. As a writer of testimorials Gail Hamilton excelled. An Irish girl ap- plied to the principal of the state nor- mal school at Salem for a situation as cook, and exhibited w:th pride the following testimonial from Miss Ham- ilton: i “Margaret Fliner has lived with me fourteen weeks. I have found her in- variably good tempered, immunda (dirty), cheerful, obliging, exitiora (destructive), respectful and incorri- gible. She is a better cook than any Irish girl I have ever employed, and one of the best bread-makers I ever saw. With neatness and carefulness and economy she would make an ex- ecllent servant. I heartily recommend her to all Christian philanthropists and her employer to divine mercy.” ——— “Pie” and “Pica.” lar. Our $10 Cloaks ARE Worth More.

Then it is almost impossible to distinguish the tenses; anc lastly the adjective is generally indistiuguishable from the substantive, and the,link between an adjective and the term, which it quali- fies is the same as the sign of the For instance, the text, ‘This is-My beloyed Son,’ may be read in the Persian Bible, ‘This-is the Son of My beloved,’ without the slightest: | violence tothe grammar. For Lovers of the Weed. Those who are rational smokers will never indulge on an empty stomach; man seem able to do so with impuni- ty, but the practice is bad. They will keep the pipe well cleansed and use only a pure tobacco. Whether smok- ing a pipe, cigar or cigarette they ‘| will abstain from using it to the last extremity, because it is the accumu- lated products of combustion which form the injurious elements. The ra- tional smoker will never expectorate except on occasion m absolutely compelled, or, if he finds himself fall- ing into this bad kLabit, being ration- al, he will cease to be a smoker.” Dniversalists Convention at Minneapolis, Minn.
