' t Ichaeunioa Fir Make Its 7ft arl Enemr Serve Its Parpoae. The Ichneumon fly of Ceylon la the natural enemy of the spider. This In sect la green In color, and In form re emblea a wasp with a marvelously thin waist It makes Its nest of well worked clay and then goes on a hunt lng expedition. Its victims are In variably spiders of various kinds, but all are subject to the same mode of treatment A scientific sting Injects some poison which effectually paralyze the luckless spider, which is then carried off to the nest and there fastened with a dab of moist clay. Another and an other vjctlm is brought to this chamber of horrors. Then the prescient mother Ichneumon fly proceeds to deposit her eggs, one in the body of each spider, which can just move Its legs in a vague, aimless manner, but can offer no re sistance. ( This done, the fly returns to her work as a mason. , She prepares more clay and builds up the entrance to this ghastly cell. Then she commences a new cell, which she furnishes in like manner and then closes; then she adds yet another cell and so proceeds until fcer Btore of eggs are all provided forr and, her task In life being accomplished, she dies, leaving her evil brood to batch at leisure. In due time these horrid lit tle maggots come to life and find them selves cradled In a larder of fresh meat Each poor spider is still alive, and his juices afford nutriment for the ichneu mon grub till it is ready to pass in the chrysalis stage, thence to emerge as a winged fly fully prepared to carry out the traditions of Its ancestors wltn re gard to spiders. ANTIQUITY OF FISHING. Mrs. Luper was a passenger Monday for Portland and New port, bhe will return about the first of September with a fine stock of millinery. Jim McGee came down from the mountains the first of the week. He says that there will be a good crop of huckleberries and that the berries are now ripening. The mountains are now cool and pleas ant and a number of Heppner people are enjoying the ozone of the high altitudes. One of the moat attractive and best written advertisements that has appeared in the Gazette for a long time is that of the Portland Business College, printed elee where in this issue. The heading ia strong and artistic, the wording cleancut and impressive. Send for the catalogue mentionedin the advertisement. It ia a beautiful production that tells all about the school and ita splendid work. No educational institution in the Northwest is better known than the Portland Business College. Its principal, Prof. A. P. Armstrong, baa been engaged in school work all his life, and has an enviable reputation as an educator. He knowa tlUe requirements of em ployers of olfice help, aud can pre pare any willing student to meet them. The Art of Angling la aa Old a the Uaman Race. The art of angling no doubt bad its origin in man's necessities. The earli est record of mankind makes reference to the taking of fish for food. There are frequent allusions to It In the Bible. Job, in the oldest book of all, says: "Canst thou draw out a leviathan with a hook or his tongue with a cord which thou tcttest down? Canst thou put a hook in his nose?" Homer, in the "Iliad," speaks of fishing in these lines: Aa bearing- death In the fallacious bait, Prom th beat angle sinks the leaden weight. And it la recorded in the "Odyssey:" A when the angler, hta long- rod In hand, On a projecting rock assumes his stand. Casts te the fiery fry the baited snare. Then' tUn-s tfe wrigg-Ung- captives In th air. The Romans, Greeks and other races f early days around the Mediterranean practiced the art of angling. Plutarch tells of a prank played by the fair Egyptian, Cleopatra, while out fishing with Antony, "They wagered on their angling, and her divers did bang a salt fish on his hook, which he with fervor drew up." The ruined walls of Heretilaneum and Pompeii alnnind In frescoes of fishermen. All along the track of his tory are found traces of this gentle recreation, showing the gradual Im provement from the hook of bone and rude equipment of the care man to the elegant accessories and belongings of the modern angler. It Ooearrod In Route and Took PUtew la the Year 300 B. C. Llvy In his famous book, "The An nals," 9,-30, relates in the following suggestive words the story of a singu lar strike which occurred In Rome lr the year 300 B. C. and was probably the first strike ever known : That . year occurred an event little worthy of being related and . which I would pass in silence had it not ap peared as involving religion. The flute players, dissatisfied because the latest censors had forbidden them to take part in the banquet in Jupiter's temple, according to the ancient custom, with drew, every one of them, to Tlbur, so that nobody was left at Rome to play during the sacrifices. This Incident shocked the religious sentiment of th senate, and the senators sent messen gers to Invite the inhabitants of Tlbui to make every effort In order that thi players should be restored to the Ro mans. The Tlburtlnes, having prom ised not to neglect anything necessary for that purpose, caused the flute play, ers to come to the place where the sen ate met and exhorted them to go back to Rome. Seeing that they could not prevail upon them to do so, they em ployed a stratagem In keeping with their character. On a day of festival under pretext that music would increase the Joy of the feast every citizen invited the flute players individually to his house, and wine, of which people of that profes sion are usually fond, was given to them In such quantities that they fell Into a deep sleep. They were then thrown Into wagoas and transported to Rome. They only became aware of what had happened on the day after, when dawn surprised them lying on the carts, which bad been left In the forum. A large crowd bad assembled, and they were Induced to promise that they would remain at Rome. The right of at tending the banquets was restored to these flute players.

Apple Care For Drunkards. "For ten years," said a physician, "I have advocated apples as a cure for drunkenness. In that time I have tried the apple cure on some forty or fifty drunkards, and my success has been most gratifying. "Let any man afflicted with the love of drink eat three or more apples dally, and the horrible craving will gradually leave him. The cure will be greatly helped along if he also smokes as little as possible. "I know a woman who cured a drunk en husband without his knowledge by keeping always a plentiful supply of food Apples on the dining table. The man at these apples and finally stop ped drinking altogether." Philadelphia Bulletin.
