She talked vivaciously of her days at Wellesley and of her exploration in the rich mines of Sanskrit and of her investigations of the mahatmos and the occult flap-dood'.es of the far east. Then he told her about his horse and his rubber-tired traps, and they gazed into each other's eyes and sighed a lot of long-drawn fcifrhs and were beginning to feel that they had passed through thts pei.rly gates and were strolling through streets that were paved with gold.

A dispatch from Xejraunee.to the Detroit Journal states that the blue berry crop promises to be an excel lent one this season, and the first berries are already on the market. The season will be at its hi;ht in tibmit two weeks, uud from now un til then the number of pickers en ;a;;ed in tfather:hj the berries in Marquette, Delta, Aljjer nnd Luce counties will increase daily until perhaps 2.11(10 persons will be en jiratfed in the work. The blueberry crop of Marquette and adjacent coun- j lies win oo worm iroin ywwnw to 75,uo this year. The following dispatch from Marquette, under recent date, will be of eoniderable interest to a number of homehteaders in this vicinity: '"The eourt of appeals at Cincinnati has aflirmed the judg ment of the lower eourt. and ex Ileeeiver of Public; Land Moneys .Mead, at the general k.nd office at Marquette, and his boudsim n, will iave to make good some which Mr. Mead received from persons for land grants which they never ac cepted or utilized.

In contrast to tliis I eould not help but think of my read ing of The Antiquary' for the second time after the lapse of 30 years. The prace of its telling and the charm of it characters were even stronper than in those early days.

FLtLS AND WASPS. 'Hnndretl of the Vent Killed by th '"""- Hawk Inarrtt. Hy coiamos npreenient the unsp is accepted as enjblematical of irritability and 'petty nialipnity; but even this inuch-abdsed hyuienopterous insect plays a beneficial part in the work of nature. A number of wasps were seen by Mr. I;. M. J'.arrinR-ton, an Irih naturalist, buzzing alout his cows. Closer inspec tion revealed that they were all busy catching1 flies, and pouncing with the rabidity of hawks after bilMs on the flies as they tried to t-ettle or rebt on some favorite part of the cows. One white cow drew more waps than any of the others, Wen use the- moment a fly alighted it was seen nt onee Binst the kin. When a wasp catches a ily it Im mediately bites off both wings, some- Jin$s a leg cr two, occasionally tue Mr. Barrlngton saw tome of the wasps when laden with one fly catch another, without letting go the first, and then fly away with both. There was a constant stream of wasps carrying away flies, probably to feed the larvae in their nests, and returning again to the cows to catch more. In about 20 minutes Mr. Darrington estimated that between 300 and 400 flics were caught; on two cows lying close to where he stood. The SalUa nr His CMldrca.
