SWARMING WITH INSECTS.
The Pe»t» Art a Veritable Plague In
Bolivia and Brazil.
Insect pests nre a plague on the
boundary of Bolivia anil Brazil. "In
the forests and on the smaller rivers."
writes Commander Herbert A. Kd
wards. R. X It., In the Geographical
Journal, "life Is made almost unbear
able. Ants are met with everywhere:
they swarm over one's person In hun
dreds. and most of them bite most sav
agely. There Is one kind of red ant,
which lives in trees hollowed out by
themselves, whose bite is like a touch
with a red hot iron. If a person Inad
vertently touches or leans up against
one of these trees the auts swarm out
upon him Instnntly. and his life for
hours afterward Is a long drawn out
misery. Then there are the huge ants,
called tuoanderas, one and a half inch
es In length: they live In the forks of
trees. Their bite is particularly pain
ful. and causes the part affected to
swell up as if poisoned. One of our
soldiers was Incapacitated for teveml
days by n bite of a tucandera. Red
ants; black ants which make broad,
straight roads of their own and move
abort in battalions: grayish white ants,
living In red colored mounds, six feet
high: yellow ants—each and every one
has Its own particular way of making
unwelcome the intruder into its habi
tat.
"Butterflies during bright sunshinf
settled on the surveyors and tl»e instru
ments they were using iu such num
bers tbnt survey work became an Im
possibility Nor is this nil. Wasps of
many colors, but always with a sting:
hornets, which give no mercy to man
or beast: bees of all sizes, some of
which swarin in one's shirt, eyes. hair,
ears, mouth and nostrils seeking mois
ture. Every blade of grass has a tick
of some sort, waiting opportunity to
bury itself In some one's flesh.
"Spiders, horrid hairy creatures, with
bodies six Inches long, are sometimes
met. One of our men was stung or
bitten by one of these when out shoot
ing; his foot where he wns bitten be
came very inflamed and broke out into
raw patches. He had to be left behind
as we were on the march, and when
we sent for him three weeks later he
was still limping."
Song Names of the States.
The most beautiful place names In
the world, according to Robert Louis
Stevenson, are those of North Amer
ica. "The names of the stales and ter
ritories," he declares in "Across the
Plains," "form themselves Into a cho
rus of sweet and romantic vocables
Delaware, Ohio, Indiana, Florida, Da
kota, Iowa, Wyoming. Minnesota and
the Carolines. There are few poems
with a nobler music to the ear; a song
ful, tuneful land, and If a new Homer
shall arise from the western continent
his verse will be enriched, his pages
sing spontaneously, with the names of
states and cities that would strike the
fancy In a business circular."
Soiled Papers.
Large papers or leaves of books that
have become soiled from much han
dling can be put Into perfect condition
if the loose dirt Is first rubbed off with
a piece of bread. Then cover the spots
with blotting paper made damp with
oxalic acid in solution. Lastly pass a
hot iron over the blotting paper until
it dries.
To remove deep set creases in papers
or the leaves of a book put between
two pieces of white blotting paper—or
any unsized paper- slightly dampened,
and press with a warm iron until the
page is perfectly smooth.—New York
Tribune.
The Lotus Eaters.
The race of people to whom the name
"lotus eaters" was applied was a
Lybian tribe, known to the Greeks
as early as the time of Homer. Herod
otus describes their country and says
that a caravan route led from It to
Egypt The lotus still grows there in
great abundant**—a prickly shrub bear
ing a fruit of ii sweet taste compared
by Herodotus to that of the date. It
Is still eaten by the natives, ind a kind
of wine Is made from Its Jul<e.
Those Who Arrive.
A New York capitalist said at a din
ner In Boston that neither I he prudent
man nor the daring man made a sue
cess of life.
"The prudent gets nowhere." be de
clared. "The daring go to smash !t
Is those who mingle the two qualities
it is the daringly prudent, who arrive
"In other words." concluded the cap
Italist, "the men who succeed nre those
who ruu risks at a very slow walk

Sugar Is Dear In France.
People in France when they dine at
restaurants frequently appropriate the
sugar they don't happen to use Sugar
in France Is dear, and what Is served
with the coffee belongs by right to tin
purchaser as much as the coffee ltse!f.
So why not take a lump or two home
to little Jeanne or Pierre?
INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
ON SAFETY APPLIANCES
London, Nor. 14—Lessons from
the Titanic aad Voltunro disasters
were drawn yesterday in tlio open
ing sessions the International
Conference on Safety I at Sea. Thp
United States was represented at tne
gathering by Representative Josh
ua W. Alexander, of Missouri, chair
man of the House Committeo of
Merchant Marine and Fisheries,
chairman of *he delegation; Eugene
T. Chamberlain, commissioner of
navigation, 'secretary, and Captain
George D. Cooper, United States
Navy, treasurer. As had been ex
pected, one cf the first matters
which came up for consideration
was the recommendation that
wireless apparatus be required on
all ships in foreign trade that carry
fifty or more persons, including
passengers and crew. In this con
nection it was deemed advisable ac
cording to a report read at yester
day's session, that wireless on all
ships should be able to transmit
messages at least 100 nautical miles
and that auxiliary power supply for
working the wireless, must be pro
vided, Independent of the vessel's
main elctrical power plant, to send
messages at least 100 miles for
four hours or more.
On the question of requiring at
least two operators, it was expected
that some differences of opinion
would arise. Such a recommenda
tion, it was thought, would pass in
regard to ships maintaining a con
stant sen-ice ci'd carrying 100 or
mere passengers It was thought
that one first or second grade wire
'ess operator and one cargo opera
toi or watcher would be recom
mended for cargo boats. Ail these
recommendations were heartily sup
ported by the delegation from the
United States. It was expected that
seme eort of resolution praising
Captain Inch, of the burned Voltur
i>o, wruld be unanimously agreed up
on, to commend him for his gallan
try when his ship burned at sea
some weeks ago.
The story ot the Volturno dis
aster was exp-cted to be vividly
retold Jr. support of recommenda
tions for better fighting facilities on
all boats.
