himself over a column of Agues,
oblivious to the shouts of the

just across the alley from his
office, is not to be trusted along
with the man who occasionally
feels the call of pleasure stronger
than the call of duty and who
isn't too busy tryincr to "lay up

to snatch a few moments of re

all mri to be the grandest word

my days in an eternal battle in
which envy and avarice were the
dominant motives.

I Musical insects of the) i win god
type may be divided into rt ws
troupe: - (1) Those which do not
use their wings and (2) those

iound. . Of the.two, the latter pe
Vies is by far the more . numerous!
A very curious fact Is that alj in

being quite unknown ; in( addition
to tms, the males are always th
performers, female insects being:
dumb -contenting tliemselvt-s
with stopping at home and look
Ing after the children instead of
standing at the front door singing
like their lords and masters, say
the Scientific American.
Many insects sing by day,"ach.
for instance, as the chickadee,
which, however, are not of the "vi
olinist' type, as they play upon a
sries of hard plates attached to
the abdomen, much 1n the same
way as a Spanish dancer useH the
castanets. Another insect of this
type is tha black field cricket,
which has its home in a small,
cavelike dwelling it prepares in
the earth.
Other insect! only sing by night
such, for instance, as the domes
tie and tree crickets, whose regu
lar modulated notes are known to
every one. The apparatus used by
these insects exactly resembles a
violin, the abdomen being partial
ly endowed with small bridgelike'
edges or ridges, against which t h"
wings are rubbed, thus produeiug
the strident note characteristic of
the insect. - -
Othor insects, such as locusts
and ttit kin, have veritable bows
coverc. I vith fine ridtren and at-
taclif ;1 !n the'winirs !v two but
ton like iriov.ths. )li;i'is have
cavitiea covered over with a fine
membrane which serve the office
of resonators: in almost all in
sects of this type there is a parch
rnent like part of the abdomen
which acts as a kind of soundir.g
board. Strange to say, many of
these harmonious insects are de
prived of hearing. Crickets, how
?ver, are an xception, as they
have sharp ears and cease their
vocal efforts at the sound of ap
proaching footsteps. Some in
sects, although apparently do
prived of any means for the pro
duction of sound, are none the
less capable of making a noise in
the world. A notable instance o
this is to be found in a locust re
joicing in the euphonious name 0:
Microcentrum tetinervis, which
produces a short, monotonous note
like two pieces of metal or flint
rubbed together.
80 far the field of insect voice
has not been widely explored. It
would be interesting to study
them from the point of view of
musical notation, and also to de
termine whether their song alters
in any way according to the sea
son, hour of the day, age of the in
sect and meteorological 1 condi
tions.

Do You Fear Consumption?
r -1
When we take into consideration the
fact that one out of every seven in this
climate die of consumption, u it any
wonder that it is feared by the people of
Lumberton who have weak lungs and
chronic colds and coughs?
A famous Loudon physician has for
years urged his patients, when the sligh
test tendency to consumption appeared,
to take the best cod liver preparation
they could find, and physicians every
where have recognized that the cod'a
liver contains curative talnes for coughs,
colds,' bronchitis, consumption and all
wasting diseases unequalled in medicine.
but, unfortunately, few could take and
derive any benefit from old-fashioned
cod liver oil and emulsions on account of
the indigestible grease which they con
tain.
Every person in Lumberton should
know the value of the new cod liver pre
paration, Vinol. It actually contains in
concentrated form all of the strengthen
ing body-building elements of cod lirer
oil actually taken from fresh cods' livers,
without: drop of oil or grease to upset
the stomach and tetard its work.
Therefoie, where old-fashioned cod
liver oil or emulsions would do good.
Vinol will do far more good. 7e guaran
tee Vinol will improve the appetite,
strengthen digestion, make rich, red
blood,. create, streghth, cure chronic
coughs and colds and strengthen wsak
longs. If Vinol falls to give satisfaction,
ws return your mooey without question.

Germs are ever teady to attacK either maq or beast. A wound from
any cause will be quickl infected with them, and if they do not cause
blood poisoning tbey will at leas retard the healing and cause the
sore to be most painful. Wherever there is fermentation, decay or
pus, there are. germs. Ward's All-Healing Antiseptic will destroy
them, and is therefore a preparation that siiould be kep. at hand .for
instant nse. It is good for msn or beast. It is invaluable in treating
wounds, scalds, burns, bruises, headache, neuralgia, rheumatism,
toothache, bowel complaint, diarrhoea, cholera morbus, flux, colic, .
etc. We guarantee this preperation. PRICE 35c.
