Gulliver Bottle Subdued by
Swarms of Lilliputian Ants
History does not , record
where Jonathan Swift got -the
Idea of placing his fictional
hero,' Gulliver, in the land
of Lilliput where the people
were no larger than a man s
little finger.. Nor does it, re
cord how he arrived at the
Idea of allowing Gulliver to
fall asleep on the ground and
awaken to find his hands, feet
and legs securely tied by the
busy little people,. who had
never before seen such a gi
ant, and had tied him up in
order to protect themselves.
Swift published the story
in the year 172B, and it has
become something of a clas
sic. Most children and adults
have been fascinated by the
story of Gulliver's Travels in
the land of Lilliput. All have
probably seen the drawing
wherp Gulliver, is spread-

eagled on the ground with Lil
liputians swarming all over
the place. The little people
had secured ropes, stakes and
any and all, cordage they
could find, and tied the giant
securely.
Comes Alive
The old drawing came alive
for us the other'day when we
noticed a reenactment of Gul
liver's predicament on the
ground near a sidewalk. The
"giant" in this living drama
Gulliver himself, if we al
lowed our imagination a free
rein-was a large, black beetle
who had stupidly knocked
himself silly by crashing into
a steel mailbox.
Stunned by the impact, the
beetle Jay on his back, his
big legs' waving, feebly in .the
air. Within minutes of the
crash, the Lilliputians arrived.
There were hundreds of these
"little people," little blaclr
ants each less than one hun
dreth the size of the beetle.
The six-legged Lilliputians
were cautious. They seemed to
know how dangerous the viol
ently waving legs could be.
They were taking no chances.
One blow from a beetle leg
could break an ant in half.
Their concern was to keep
the beetle from regaining his
feet and escaping.
Once in a while an ant, a
little braver than his co-workers,
would rush in and grab
one of the beetle's legs. Sev
eral of these venturesome lit
tle creatures, misjudging their
own ability, would be kicked
and knocked end over end.
One ant evidently suffered a
broken log and was later car
ried away by half a dozen
other ants. . ."
Us Sheer Numbers
Finally, the Lilliputians de
cided on a frontal attack.
They would attempt to subdue
the giant by sheer weight of
numbers. They swarmed in,
half a hundred of them. They
clamored on the beetle, sink
ing their mandibles into legs
and anywhere they could get
a fang-hold..
The sting of the biting jaws
revived the giant. He must
have realized the seriousness
of his position. He struggled
violently, throwing ants right
and left. He rubbed one leg
against another, scraping off
i a dozen of the tiny attackers.
I But he was a little slow on
I recovering his strength. The
I Lilliputians had arrived in
overwhelming numbers, each
biting and holding, and each
injecting into the beetle's
body a tiny bit of numbing
i fluid. The giant's legs slowed
' their wild threshing. Shortly
; all they could do was quiver
feebly then they were still.
The little ants had subdued
I the giant. Gulliver had been
, overcome by these tiny, every
I day Lilliputians.
