' A recent lecturer on ants and their ways described those of South America, who build Immense structures and pro vide space for the storage of grain. Wood ants, Inhabiting hardwood trees, divide their houses into forty compart ments. Noticing the mining ants, the lecturer said much might be learned from their cleanly habits and their won derful sanitary arrangements. Some kinds of ants do not keep cows, but live entirely on grain. Mr. Plunket gave some facts about their interesting harvesting operations stating that they planted and cultivated a kind of grass called the rice and were so ad vanced in civilization that malting was understood by them. Then there are mushroom growing ants who cultivate fungus, and others again who use um brellas. Several species make raids on the black ants, rob them of their larvae) and compel the poor black ants to be their slaves. In the burying of their dead ants show wonderful intelli gence, having cemeteries, and even bury their slaves in a different place from their masters, and are quite up in fu neral pageantry. In conclusion the lecturer said that much could be learned from ant life, in their wonder ful government, sanitary arrangements, common brotherhood, nursing and care of the young, temperance and love of fresh air. W. F. Liesching, writing in the new number of the Selborne Society's Mag azine on ants in Ceylon, says he saw one day a string of ants streaming forth, evidently in search of "pastures new." He flicked away the leader and waited to see the result. An immediate halt was made by the foremost ants, and a scene of the utmost confusion en sued. The ants from behind kept ar riving at the scene of the catastrophe and there was soon a black crowd of ants huddling and jostling one another. Some detached themselves from the main group and took a turnaround, try ing to lind traces of their leader. At last the tail end of the line arrived, and after brief consultation they all started off again, and a line soon began to un ravel itself from the tangled mass, moving back to the hole from which the whole company had so lately start ed on "pleasure bound or labor all in tent."

"Hut how have I done it?" inquired the pope. "I pro cured a stocking that belonged to your holiness," she replied. ''One of my stockings?" "Yes; I put the talisman on my diseased foot and it has been com pletely cured." "Madam," replied the pope, a little maliciously, "fortune hat been very kind to you.

Why is it that well-informed people so persistently forget the name of the man who first discovered the Pacific ocean? asks the New York Tribune. In the songs of poets nnd the speech of emperors poor Vasco Nunez de llalboa is forgotten and his achievement ascribed to almost anybody else. Keats, "on looking into a volume of Chapman's Homer," thought of the oceans and the stars, and sang: Then felt I like some watcher of theaktes When a new planet awtma into his ken. Or like stout t'ortez, when with eagle eyes He gazed at the l'aeittc. all his men Gazed at each other with a wild surmise, Pilcut upou a peak in Darten. Now comes the Uermiin emperor, and credits Sir Francis Drake with havinir ' first seen the "great water." For the benefit of emperors, poets "and sieh" it may be stated that the first European to see the Pacific ocean from the Ainer ! iean continent was Vasco Nunez de lial j boa, who beheld it from the eminence ! now known as Mount Culebra, about ; half way across the isthmus of Panama Neither Cortez nor Sir Francis Drake bad any share in his achievement, liuarautoed Cure.

CONCERNING THE STARjJ, The Word "Fixed" Applied to Uearenl) Bodies Glvea a Wrong; Impreaalon. Astronomers tell us that the tern "fixed" appled to the stars is a mistake for it is now known that there is not i fixed star in the heavens, and probablj no such condition as absolute rest in tlu universe. All the stars are in motion and some of them are moving at the rate of two hundred and fifty thousanc miles an hour, or more that thrice the velocity of r earth on its orbit. It might be tl.jught that this constant motion would produce continual changet in the stellar relations and alter thf face of the heavens every few years But the vast distances at which the stars are set from us destroy the visua. effect of their motion, and preserve the unchanging aspect of the heavens None of the constellations have suf ered a dislocation in three thousand years. Sirius, Arcturus and the I'leiadef are still in their places. Although the eifchty-one stars in Orion have ever beer in motion, each without relation to anj other, the mighty figure is as it ap pcared to the man of Uz forty centuriei euro. A Leader.

How Names Grow, it is currently related in New Bed ford that several generations ago a ship was wrecked near there and only one boy saved. As they did not know his name, they called him Johnny Crapaud, and the descendant of this boy was con gressman from Massachusetts, Hon. Mr. Crapo. To these may be added, says American Notes and Queries, the case of Judge Poland, of Vermont, o w horn the story is told that his family were Poles and bore an unpronounce able surname; they were called the "Poles" and the "Polanders," so that the name gradually crystallized into "Poland." There is also the name com mon in the south, "Dabney," which is supposed by the aristocratic owners to be a corruption of the French "D'Au bigne," and probably first imported by some noble lluguenot exile.
