H igh-Sounding Name» It seems to be the practice for lead ing towns or cities to adopt titles In self-praise. The old Venetians used to say, “See Venice and die,” and Rome has always styled Itself the Eternal city. Boston calls itself—the Ameri can, not the English town—the Hub of the Universe, whilst London has not shrunk from calling Itself the Metrop olis of the World. It is a moot point whether Brighton or Scarborough wr~ first in the field with the subtitle “Queen of Watering Places," but It Is certain that both use it and believe In its truth. Edinburgh styles itself the Modern Athens, and Glasgow boasts that it Is the second city of the empire. Seville says that he who has not seen Seville has seen no marvel. Manchester calls Itself Cottonopolis, and Liverpool the Gateway of the West. In Italy one of the most serious crimes Is the stealing or unauthorized excavation of antiquities. The gov ernment claims as Its property all ob jects of artistic or archeological In terest over 100 years old, Hnd permits for their exportation are obtained only rarely and with difficulty. Rights to excavate or even to study while excavations are proceeding are rarely granted to foreign students. The other day some archeological pickpockets who removed some an cient vasei and marbles from tombs that were being excavated near Co- macchio were convicted in court. The leader was sentenced to seven years in prison—a punishment rare In Italy for any crime less than murder. F ood of Butterflie» Butterflies feed on the nectar of flowers and the sap of trees and plants. The various flowers, etc., vary with those found In a locality. All adult bees feed on saccharine Juices, particularly the nectar of flowers. It Is the habit of bees to devote their searching to a single sort of flower as long as It serves their purpose, each individual visiting blossom after bloa- sora of that kind, instead of searching flowers indiscriminately. This varies with the locality. and Ineecta Prepare fo r W inter Ants, bees, wasps, flies and many other Insects protect themselves dur ing the winter by securing food sup plies and constructing retreats. The wonderful work done by anta. bees, wasps, spiders, butterflies and worms has been studied by many nat uralists and researches have been charmingly described by Lubbock. Fabre. Maeterlinck and other able writers. The underground apartments and terraced homes of the ants, their domestic life, social organization and thoughtfulness, are amoDg the great wonders of nature. These extraordinarily intelligent in sects not only store away an abun dance of food for winter, but also they provide aphides to be milked and they cultivate fungi gardens and manufac ture many food substances while pass ing the winter months underground. Genius, Individuality and temper ament in animals enable them to solve all the problems of winter which they may at any time • encounter. These vary In individuals of the same spe cies. Among any group of young anl-, mala or birds or insects you may no tice individuals varying In fear, timid ity, curiosity, suspicion, sociability, aggressiveness and initiative. Hardly two will be found with slmlar charac ters and temperaments. They differ as widely as the members of a single human family. The strong and fear less members of any species give the leadership and develop the customs which enable them to meet the condi tions of winter. o im F7S-STORE BUYING BUYING MOST WE BUY /O R 1 1 1 ! „ SELLING MOST WE SELL FOB LESS POWER SAVES YOU MONEY PENDLETON, OREGON A Bird» and Mankind of Long Aaaociation The association between certain birds and man Is Immensely ancient, says the London Times. As with sheep and oxen and horses, and even more with the dog, the attempt to as sign a date to the origin of our farm yard birds is foiled by the mists of antiquity. The scanty company of farmyard species has been recruited in very dif ferent ages. The turkey could not Join us until we discovered America, and probably far the oldest is the rock-pigeon. When man learned how to grow grain, the dove found a new attraction In his company. When man became a builder in stone, he built also for the swallows and doves. The swallow finds a home today In the cowsheds that mimic his ancient caves, while the house-pigeon, like thq house-martin, clings to the outside of nan's mimic rock faces and builds Its nests on his triumphal arches and against his ca thedrals.
