"This old fellow was suspected of tampering With the church collections. A couple of clumsy traps that were set for blm failed to work. Then one day a young deacon walked past his house leading a new horse. "'That's a fine horse, deacon,' the old fellow shouted. 'Did you buy him at the fair?' "'Yes,' said the deacon. Then, as the other came nearer, he added: '"I bought him with my pickings out of the collection plate.' '"The old man looked horrified. ""Good gracious!' be said, i've often taken enough myself to buy a 'hat or a pair of trousers; but, deacon, ;ld takln' enough to buy a horse ain't ;ye committln' a positive sin!'" Poverty and Consumption. That poverty is a friend to consumption is demonstrated by some recent German statistics, which show that of ' .10,000 persons 40 annually well-to-d- o die of consumption; of the same ber only moderately well num- 66; of the same number of ready poor, 77; and of paupers, 97. According to John Burns, the famous English labor leader, 90 per cent of the consumptives In London receive their homes. to-d- charitable relief in Origin of Word "Bible." The word bible Is derived from the latin name blblia, which was treated as a singular although it comes from the Greek neuter plural, meaning "lit-ti-e books." This Greek diminutive was derived from byblus, or papyrus, the famous material on which ancient books were written. The title "Bible" was first used about the middle of the second Christian century in the second epistle of Clement xlv., 2).

It's not an easy matter to satisfy all the members of the family at meal Galveston, Tex. Dr. Delos Van Dine of the bureau of entomology, United States department of agriculture, Is In Galveston on an expedition. Dr. Van Dine Is asso Inelated with the southern field sect Investigation, under the direction of W. D. Hunter, In charge of the laboratory at Dallas, and Is iu charge of tho department of Insects affecting sugar cane and rice. Dr. Van Dine is searching for a special kind of ant, said to be very destructive, and which has been Imported Into, the country from Argentina, and hoping and praying he might not find It It Is known that .these ants have got a foothold In Louisiana and other states, even as far west as California, and the government Is anxious to eradicate them as quickly as possible. It Is believed these ants, which in general appearance differ very little, if any, from other ants found In this country, got into this country through fruit and other shipments Imported from Argentina. Dr. Van Dine has Just completed a tour of the sugar-can- e and sections of Texas and is on his IncI fields. way to the Louisiana dentally he is searching for this new ant, but so far has not discovered any in Texas, even though they are In seclarge numbers in the sugar-cantion of Louisiana and In New Orleans are doing considerable damage. The department requests samples of all kinds of ants found In Galveston sent to the government entomological bureau at Dallas. Just kill a few ants and mall them In a small box to this address, and the experts will examine them and find out If any of the Argentine specimens are among them. They may be found, if here, In' the restaurants, hotels and homes. This ant drives out all other ants some of which are beneficial insects It also forms alliances with the mealj bug and plant lice and protects these most destructive insects, which destroy sugar cane, rice and other crops These Argentine ants are vicloui things, which destroy the good insects and protect and encourage th others. These Insects multiply rapid ly and are wonders In the ant family It Is said that Insect powder, germicides and other Insect destroyers have no terror for these Argentine ants and that they can bridge many oh stacles heretofore said to be impreg nable against ant Invasions. For In stance, the water vessels In which the legs of tables are set do not deter these ants. When an army of Argentine ants invades a home and finds the cupboards and tables surrounded by vessels containing water the commander of the ant army simply decrees' that a sufficient number of Insects be killed to form a bridge, over which the living army crosses the water and invades the tables or side. boards. Now that the ant has invaded this country and promises to continue pillaging and destroying crops, Uncle Sam Is anxious to find some way ol wiping out the entire family.
