RJ Sold in Emporium by L. Taggart. "Priij*" ID It Prey*. Very strange is the insect popnlurly known 21 h the "praying mantis." Of this insect M. J. 11. Fabre, a distin guished French naturalist, made a thorough study. According to lilm, "its Ion;;, pale green wings, like ample veils, its head upraised to heaven, its amis folded and crossed 011 its breast, give It a false resemblance to a nun in ecstatic devotion." A ferocious creature it is, ever bent on carnage, the workshops of various burrowing liymenoptera being its fa vorite haunts, since there It Is almost certain to find prey. "Posted on some bush near the bur rows," sa.v3 Mr. Fabre in his account of the insect, "it waits patiently until it sees some other Insect, probably a sphex, returning home. By a sudden rustle of its half open wings it terrifies the approaching insect, which hesitates for a moment, and then as suddenly as a spring the toothed forearm folds back on an arm tt4so toothed, and the insect is grasped between the blades of the double saw in the same manner as the Jaws of a wolf trap close on an un fortunate wolf at the instant when it is seizing the bait. Then, without unclos ing the deadly machine, the mantis slowly eats its victim." In Provence this cruel insect is known as "prego Dieoti," which means "pray to God." The llenf Mule'n Story. "The most pathetic story I ever heard," said Senator Hoar once, "was told by Professor Gallaudet. The pro fessor had a favorite pupil, a little deaf mute boy, exceptionally bright. Mr. Gallaudet asked him if lie knew the story of George Washington and the cherry tree. "With his nimble lingers the little fellow said he did, and then ho pro ceeded to repeat it. The noiseless ges ticulations continued until the boy had informed the professor of the elder Washington's discovery of the mutilat ed tree and of his quest for the muti lator. "'When George's father asked him who hacked his favorite cherry tree,' signaled the voiceless child, 'George put ln's hatchet in his left hand'- "'Stop,' interrupted the professor. 'Where did you get your authority for saying he took the hatchet in his left hand?' " 'Why,' responded the boy, 'he needed his right hand to tell his father that he cut the tree.' " Virus n:a«l Venom. The difference between venom and a virus is very marked. Both are poi sons and botli of organic origin, but a venom is produced in secreting organs, commonly called poison glands, and is introduced into the system by means especially adapted for the purpose, such as stings or fangs. On the other hand, a virus is the result of disease or putrefaction and generally possesses the property of exciting in the system into which it is introduced the disease which produced the virus. A virus commonly produces little if any local disturbance. A venom generally causes great pain, often severe inflammation and swelling. Venom has a marked lo cal effect. Virus causes a general dis turbance of the system. Ail Odd tlaliit Anionic Hooks. Among the odd habits of rooks is the way that members of the same rookery have of intermarrying generation after generation. The males always choose their wives from among their near neighbors, and if one should be so bold as to bring home to his rookery a bride from a distance the other rooks will in variably refuse to receive her and will force the pair to build some way off. In the neighborhood of big rookeries outlying nests of this kind may always be found. Frenli Pnlnt Stninn. A fresh paint stain on woolen goods will disappear if rubbed against other woolen goods. For instance, if the stain is on the sleeve of a coat take that garment off and rub the paint against the other sleeve. It will disap pear anil leave no sign. This is easier than applying turpentine and exactly as efficacious, but it must be done while the paint is still wet. Very Le^nl. "We claim that my client did not run away with the horse, as alleged.

For Those Who Livo on Farms. Dr. liiTgiu, Fana, 111.--., whites: "I have used Ballard's Snow Liniment; always recommend it to my Iri nds. as I atu confident there is no better made.
