Ingenious Manner In Which This Insect Uses a Hammer. The deliberate use of a tool by a little sand wasp might well be supposed to indicate reasoning power, says an exchange. A well known naturalist, Dr. Peckham, watched a wasp dig a hole in the earth and deposit therein an egg, together with a spider which she had stung into paralysis to feed the grub which should be hatched in due course. Then she filled up the hole with sand or earth and jammed it down with her head. When at last the filling was level with the ground she brought a quantity of fine grains of dirt to the spot, picked up a small pebble in her mandibles and used it as a hammer in pounding them down with rapid strokes, thus making this spot as hard and firm as Took Him For a S In his young days, w John Coleman was an ad istant, but already had a ward the drama, he obtai a chance business connecti duction to Charles Matha the interview a little incide which throws a striking the public favorite's pretion.

The observ an egg, together with a spider which she had stung into paralysis to feed the grub which should be hatched in due course.

When at last the filling was level with the ground she brought a quantity of fine grains of dirt to the spot, picked up a small pebble in her mandibles and used it as a hammer in pounding them down with rapid strokes, thus making this spot as hard and firm as the surrounding surface. Before we could recover from our astonishment at this performance she had dropped her stone and was bringing more earth. In a moment we saw her pick up the pebble and again pound the earth into place with it. Once more the whole process was repeated, and then the little creatures flew away: "The whole of this performance," writes Sir Herbert Maxwell in "Memories of the Months," "is so unexpected that even Dr. Peckham's high reputation as a scrupulous observer might fail to convince skeptics that he had not been deceived, but similar behavior on the part of a wasp of the same species has been recorded independently by Dr. Williston of Kansas university." BARBAROUS ENGINES. Man Traps and Spring Guns Once In Use In England. We were reminded the other day of some of the incidents of country life of former years by the offering for sale at a London auction mart of a couple of man traps. These engines were once upon a time part of the chattels of well nigh every considerable landowner and every energetic gamekeeper. Another implement was the spring gun, which turned on a swivel and discharged itself as soon as one of the connecting wires was stumbled against, the muzzle of the gun turning in the direction of the trespasser as indicated by the wire, the guilty party generally receiving a coating of pitch if of nothing worse. The man traps sold the other day were probably the first some of the attendants at the sale ever saw and were of the old formidable pattern—that is to say, they resembled a glorified gin. They measured seventy-four inches long and were just about three feet in height, so that they would catch a poacher well above the knee, and once nipped there he would remain till his cries or the ordinary round of the keepers led at once to his release and capture.

The spring gun gave its alarm, and watchers were speedily in attendance. There was something very barbarous about the use of these engines, which were not so very long ago quite common. In fact, people need not be very old to have seen boards bearing the legend, "Beware of man traps and spring guns."—London Field. Her Opinion of Boys. A little girl wrote the following essay on boys: "Boys are men that have not got as big as their papas, and girls are women that will be ladles by and by. When God looked at Adam he said to himself, 'Well, I think I can do better if I try again,' and he made Eve. Boys are a trouble. They wear out everything but soap. If I had my way the world would be girls and the rest dolls. My papa is so nice that I think he must have been a little girl when he was a little boy. Man was made, and on the seventh day he rested. Woman was then made, and he has never rested since."—Philadelphia Inquirer. CLEARED FOR ACTION When the body is cleared for action by Dr. King's New Life Pills, you can tell it by the bloom of health on the cheeks; the brightness of the eyes; the firmness of the flesh and muscles; the buoyancy of the mind. Try them. At Hutchinson's drug store, 25 cents. To the man who thinks he knows every nook and cranny of Westminster Abbey it will probably be a surprise to learn that there are many of its most ancient and interesting parts of which he has never even caught a glimpse. For instance, in the eastern cloister is an ancient double door so guarded against unauthorized intrusion that it can only be opened by seven keys, which are in the jealous custody of as many government officials. Five of the keyholes of this wonderful door, which, by the way, is covered with human skins, are concealed from view by a stout iron bar which traverses it. This door gives access to a vaulted chamber known as the chapel of the Pyx, the walls of which were standing, as they stand today, before ever the Norman conqueror landed on the shore of Sussex. This chamber was once the treasury of England, to which were brought "the most cherished possessions of the state." The regalia of the Scottish kings and of the Holy Cross of Holyrood were deposited here; for many a year it served as a mint for coining silver and gold; it was, centuries ago, the scene of a daring robbery, when treasure valued at £100,000 (equal to two millions of present day English money) was taken from it, and today it contains, in addition to a stone altar, some old chests, one of which is said to have held the jewels of Normon kings. Not far away is a passage leading to the little cloister, the arched walls of which were built under the eyes of Edward the Confessor nearly eight and a half centuries ago and which has echoed to the footfall of the first William and his mailed attendants. Hidden from view under the pavement are the bases of the original columns of the abbey, which have also stood since before the conquest, and adjoining the little cloister is a garden, shut off by high walls from the outside world, in which monks meditated and walked and prayed eight centuries ago. At the southeast corner of the little cloister are the remains of St. Catharine's Church. When a small boy he invented a sort of made of wood, with sights, a thread with a bullet at the end an indicator for the thread along. On a dark night he his instrument outside, and while hinted it to the north star his litter read the indicator. "Forty-Hiram," she called out. This they were living in 45 degrees latitude. The observation proved perfectly accurate. Poor Perkins!

The beautiful doorway which once gave access to it now serves as the entrance to one of the official residences, and in its walls are still to be seen traces of the high altar and a fireplace. Not far from this interesting relic of ancient days is a square gray tower which once served the grim purpose of a monastic prison and has also been the repository of the royal jewels (for many years it was known as the "king's jewel house") and acts of parliament. After all these centuries of existence it still has its uses, for in it are kept the standards of weights and measures. Few who have explored the abbey have been privileged to inspect the chapter library, with its treasures of books and manuscripts many centuries old, or perhaps know that under the passage leading to the chapter house lies the dust of the first abbot of Westminster, who had his day when the confessor was king of England. The chapter house, which is open to the public, has, of course, centuries of interesting memories. It was originally the chamber where the abbot and monks used to transact their monastic business; for many generations the commons sat and legislated here before moving to the chapel of St. Stephen in Westminster palace, and in later years it was used as a storehouse for the public records, including the original Domesday Book. Beneath the chapter house is a crypt, the entrance to which is kept jealously locked and which seems to have served the purpose of a strong room to the Plantagenet kings, and not far from the chapter house is St. Faith's chapel, at one time the restry of the abbey and in which the ancient and priceless altar plate of the abbey is kept. Of peculiar interest is the Jerusalem chamber, which was built more than 500 years ago and was probably at one time the abbot's withdrawing room. It was in this chamber that Henry IV. died, in curious fulfillment of a prophecy that he should die in Jerusalem: when you go to a drug store ask for Scott's Emulsion know what you want; the knows you ought to have Don't be surprised, though, you are offered something Wines, cordials, extracts, of cod liver oil are plentiful but don't imagine you are using cod liver oil when you them.

It was in this chamber that Henry IV. died, in curious fulfillment of a prophecy that he should die in Jerusalem: It hath been prophesied me many a year I shall not die but in Jerusalem. Which vainly I supposed the Holy Land. But bear me to that chamber; there I'll lie. In that Jerusalem shall Harry die. And in the same chamber Addison, Congreve and Prior lay in state before their splendid interment in the abbey. Behind the Mask. Nearly every shopkeeper in the land is forced in the conduct of his business to wear the mask of diplomacy. This was illustrated the other day in a Fifth avenue art store. An elderly lady, connected with some of the best New York families, made her purchases and paid a small sum on account of a former bill and the goods just bought. As she placed the new bill in her reticule she said to the attentive shopkeeper: "Now—er—no bothering me about this, you know; no sending around to my place. If you do send a man I'll set the dog on him." "You'll not be troubled about it, madam," was the suave answer. "Take your time about it; all the time you want." And he smiled like a seraph until the old dowager's coach rolled off up the street. Then he turned to a friend who was taking it all in and muttered: "Durn her old picture, I won't see a red cent of that money in nine months! Ent what can you do?"
