As is generally known, Sir Jehn Lub Lub
eock associates exclusively with auls.
This is, of course, ci editable te him. Leng
age Solemon urged that large and influen
tial class of his .subjects, the sluggards, te
cultivate the .society of ants, iwl what is
geed for a sluggard is geel for ether peo
ple. If .Sir Jehn has by honest and honor
able means obtained admission te the best
circle el aul society, iic is acting wisely te
keep up such intimacies with leading ants
as he may have formed. When, however,
he proceeds te meddle with the social and
private affairs of ants he takes an unpar
donable liberty. He would net go into a.
fellow British haienct's house and dismiss
his housekeeper or in ether ways interfere
with his domestic arrangements. Neither
would he dream of crossing ever te France
and upsetting the republic and placing a
king or an emperor ou the throne. His
sense of delicacy would prevent him from
thus meddling with British baronets or
neighboring nations, and he must knew
that a man is bound by the laws of polite
ness whether he associates with ants or
human beings. Nevertheless, he has
taken it upon himself, te meddle in the
most iucxcusible way in the private and
public attains of auls, and is se insensible
of the indecency of his course that he has
actually written a book describing his rude
and lawless conduct and mentioning his
habit of eavesdropping in order te listen
te the conversation of auts. This is
simply shameful, and one wonders if Sir
Jehn lias any human friends, and if se,
hew the could permit him te publish se
disgraceful a book.
There really seems te be nothing which
Sir Jehu Lubbeck docs net censider him
self at liberty te de in connection with ants
He tells us that he has repeatedly broken
into a royal ant palace ami kidnapped the
queen. This he had done merely in order te
eoe what the auts would de without a queen.
He found that after the first excitement
following the discovery of their less had
subsided the auts established a republic. In
every instance the republic proved success
ful, and the ants became warmly attached
te it. They found that queens were an ex
pensive luxury, and were in no sense nec
essary, and they seen evinced a hearty
dislike of effete monarchical institutions.
Sir Jehn, however, would net let them en
joy their republic in peace. He placed
foreign queens, kidnapped by him from
distant ant communities, in the heart of
Ins ant republics, and evidently hoped
that their authority would be recognized.
The republican auts, however, never failed
te kill the invading queens, and se fierce
was the republican spirit displayed by
them that net a reactionary ant ventured
te show any sympathy with the royal
martyrs.
What could be mere atrocious thau Sir
Jehn's conduct in this matter ? Net only
did he wantonly bring about revolutions in
quiet and entcntcd kingdoms, but he also
tried te produce counter revolutions iu
orderly republics. What can he say in
defense of his treatment of the iunecent
queens whom he first dethroned and kid
napped ana attcrward lured te a violent
death by inducing them te act the pait of
pretenders? If the man can find any pos
sible cxcuEO for himself, the sooner he pre
duces it the better it will be for his repu
tation among upright and honorable men.
Sir Jehn has also forcibly exiled republi
can ants,apparently for no ether crime than
that of accepting republican institutions
after he himself had forced them te de se.
On several occasions he removed a colony
of ants a long distance from their original
home, and when they were demoralized by
their calamity he suddenly unfurled the
standard of royalty by placing a queen
among them. Iu theso circumstances the
demoralized auts iuslantly accepted the
royal pretender as a savieur of society,
and implored her te rule them with
strong antenna. Thus, ants that
were republican by conviction were
juxwpt monarchical iustitu iustitu
trens as the only alternative te anarchy.
Were bir Jehn te go ever te Paris and cre
ate a state of anarchy which would lead
the frightened Frenchmen te revive the
crtipire, he would knew that he was guilty
of violating international law and of med
dling in matters which did net concern
him. He does net seem te have the least
idea that he is acting in an equally repre
hensible way toward confiding and lielp
iMiants. Sir Jehn also tells us that the ants are
habitual liars, and that one will net be
lieve another's word. He has often hid
behind a currant bush and listened te an
ant trying te convince his fellows that he
had found a valuable dead beetle. Se lit
tle confidence' does an ant place in the ve
racity of another ant that in nine eases out
of ten the reply te the information about
the beetle would be "Oh, that's tee thin'
or like expressions of incredulity. Some
times the ant thus insulted would succeed
in inducing another te fellow him and see
if the dead beetle was a reality or a mere
campaign story. The incredulous ant
would need te be coaxed along, and his
want of faith in his conductor would be
plainly expressed by his careless aud irres
olute manner. .Finally the pair would
come within sight of the beetle ; the in
credulous ant would brighten up and re
mark, "Weill should smile," and would
instantly rush te cut a geed sized beetle
steak and te take it home te his family.
Very likely this is all true, but the ques
tion is, ought Sir Jehn, after being admit
ted te an ant hill, te abuse the hospitality
of his hosts by telling stories reflecting en
their veracity ? What if the auts are se
much in the habit of lying that no ant will
believe another's word if unsupported by
evidence ? Is it the part of an honorable
man te arrive at the knowledge of this fact
by eavesdropping and then te publish it te
the world ? Sir Jehn Lubbeck ought te be
heartily ashamed of himself, and if he had
his deserts he would be invaded by swarms
of red ants and bitten until he should
openly acknowledge his fault and premise
a thorough reformation.
