News Nines. -Three brothers named Littlejohn, who were on their way to visit relatives in Mitchell, and who are farmers near 'Gladstone, Dakota, stopped off at .Chicago on their way to Ontario. While there they met in with a party who showed them around the city and final- ly took themto the stock yards. After exhibiting a herd of cattle to them which he claimed, he proposed a return to the city; remarking that he would not dispose of his cattle that day. On the way they were met by another party who asked the supposed. cattle owner if he co -aid pay him what he owed him. The cattle man said he had no money, but produced Government bonds to the amount of $1,000 and ask- ed the Messrs. Littlejohn fora loan of $600 on the bonds until the next day promising to meet them at a certain hotel and redeem the bonds. The bait to*, and the Messrs. Littlejohn are now oat the $600, as the bonds of course were useless: Will farmers never learn to beware of sharks. -The annual meeting of the Blanshard Reform Association was held in the Town hall, St. Marys, on Tuesday after- noon the 20th inet, The meeting was a decided success,. Though owing to cir- cumstances, the attendauce from the town was not as large as might have been expected, yet the township attend- ance wa,4 very good. The officers ele- cted for the following year are, Presi- dent, Dr. Irving; Vice -President, Cap- tain Campbell; second Vie -President, Thomas Epplett ; Secretary -Treasurer, P. S. Armstrono-; Executive Committee, Messrs. WidterGewans, J. M. Cameron, Fletcher 81.vitzer, Joseph Hazelwood, Samuel RLtoliLYe,. John dacb, Wm. Car- michael, George B. Webster, T. 0. Robson, A. Lainoud, and Michael Bal- lantyne. James Trow, M. P., addressed the audience on some of the important questions now before the people of Can- da,in a very lucid manner-, among them being Commercial Union. Although' not committing himself to the advocacy of this question he seemed to think that a closer commercial relation with our neighbors would be a benea to this country. -The beneficial outcome of moderate drinking is vividly shewn in the follow- ing item which we 'cli p from the Strat- ford Beacon: On Saturday morning a farmer from Ellice came to town with a load a beef. After exchanging his meat for money he proceeded to exchange his money for whisky. In the evening he hitched his horses and started for home. He had not driven far before the whisky got the better of him and he tumbled out of the wagon and laid himself down OH the soft green grass at the side of the road to sleep, while his horses pursued the journey alone. Sunday morning about five o'clock Dr. D. M, Fraser passed by that way and -noticed a team tied to a farmers' gate and a little farther on he perceived the owner of the stray horses fast asleep on the road- side. When he arrived in the city he notified peliceman O'Donnell, who. went and secured the team but could and no trace of the farmer. The horses were brought to the city and placed in the Royal hotel sta-bles. About four o'clock in the afternoon of the. same day the farmer came to look after his property, paid all expenses and wont home a poor- er but a wiser Man. -From a report from St. Catharines it is learned that 1.enry Lierch, formerly in the employ of Mr. J. R. Williamson, Stratford, has eloped with a married woman from that place. Lierch had the reputation of being somewhat "fly," and when he skipped out he left numer- ous unpaid debts behind him. He went 'by the name of Henry Lierch, but it is said hi! real name was Henry Living- stone, and that he is a married man. Further, it is said that not long since he tried • to get a girl from Stratford to elOpe with him to Lockport, but was stopped by the girl's father! On that occasion it is said Lierch borrowed $10 from a sewing girl, which he never paid. Doubts are expressed as to where the woman gat the money_to help OD the elopement, as it is said itat only a few days ago she tried to borrow $5 from her husband's solicitor, but was refused. Her husband, who is a railway contrac- tor and very much respected, was often absent from home, but always took care to leave everything: comfortable at home. This same individual ran off with a girl from London a few years ago, and also eloped with another Married woman from his home in Brussels before he c&rne to Stratford. -David Grody, a young man of Ger- man parentage, was indieted at the Gen- eral Sessions held recently at Berlin, for unlawfully taking Magdalena, otherwise called Martha Kennel, under the age of 16 years, out -of the possession and against the will of her father, Daniel Kennel, of Wellesley village, and mar- rying her at Stratford in October last. This was a runaway.marriage, the lov- ers having, unknown to the girl's par- ents, gone to Stratford and been mar- ried by a. Presbyterian minister. They wer e pursued by a local Constable to Nithbarg in North Ea,sthope, where, at his father's house, the bridegroom was arrested on the above charge, and the bride taken home by her angry parent. Soon after his preliminary trial Grody instructed his solicitor, Mr. King, of Ber- lin, to cOmmence proceedings to caropel his wife's father to deliver up his (Grody's) wife -a writ of habeas corpus having been issued for that purpose. The Grand Jury found ,"No Bill " and the bridegroom went borne as happy as a bridegroom can be who has a bride, and, at the same time, hasn't her. " -On Jane 5thlast, Mrs. Mary Stock left Detroit with two children to return to her home at Parkhill. The steamer on which she took passage to Port Huron was detained by a fog and did not reach there until midnight. Mrs. Stock was unacquainted with the city and in look- ing about for a place to shelter herself and children for the night, ran across Horatio N. Jex, the proprietor of a cigar store, restaurant and saloon, who offered her rooms over his store. In the absence of any other accommodation 'she accepted Jex's o r and went to the rooms. She pat lier children to bed, , and there being no lock to the door she placed a chair agai st it as a barricade. During the night Jex forced his way into the room and inade improper pr6- posals to Mrs. Stook and intimidated her at the point of a revolver. She re- sisted him and finally obliged hith to leave the room Under threats of raising an alarm. She rentained in the T00131 until' morning witimut further annoy- ance and then left with her children for her home in Parkhill. The above facts were sworn to on the trial Thursday, 2'2ud mst, of a mit brought against Jex ,.„ I by Mrs. Stock in the United States Circuit Court in Detroit. The jury rendered a verdict for Mrs. ' Stock of $700- . Wild &lasts of Ephesus. : One Sunday morning, when Burns and Ma brother Gilbert were going to the parish church of Tarbolton, they got into company -with an old man, a Mor- avian, travelling -to Ayr. At that time the dispute between jthe Old and New Light Burghers, was making a great noise in the country, and' Burns and the old man entering into conversation on the subject, differing in their opinions about it, the old man defending the principles of the Old Light, and Burns those of the New Light. Theat length grew warm in the debate andl Burns, finding that he could make nothing of his antagonist, , tauntingly exclaimed, ' Oh ! suppose _I have met with the Apostle Paul this morning." "No," replied the old ' Apostle Paul; but I think have met i Moravian coolly, "you have i ot met the one of those wild beasts which he says he fought with when at Ephesus.i" i Some of the Bugs of 'the Sduth. I wonder if Northern Children, who see a little black spider weaving his web over the grass in the fields, can im- agine how -he would look if his body was as large around as a good sized tea clip, and his big, hairy feet raised him four or five inches above the ground! Such a spider I have seen walkingahead of me on the Texas prairie not long since. t followed him some distance, obeerving his movements as closely as I dared, for his bite is very poisonous, even at times causing death. These spiders are found 'during the summer in many hot' countries, ,and are called tarantulas, hem _Tarenturn, a town in Italy where they, are very abundant. In old times the 'Italians al- so called them the "mad -spider," be- lieving that their bite produced hydro- phobia. Music was the -remedy then prescribed as they said' it caused those bitten to dance till they fell down sense- less, when, after a time, they might re- cover. . In this country the wound- is cauter- ized with a hot iron as goon as possible, and sometimes a tobacco poultice ap- plied, or -liquor given as an antidote. But very few persons are bitten, because, as the country is settled, the farmers kill them whenever they see one, just as they do a poisonous snake. The tarantula builds its nest in a hole it scoopes out of the earth. Not long ago a gentleman living near us came across one of these nests. He said it was a little, light-colored sack, about as large round as an egg. He did not - know what he held till a- big tarantula sprang out of it to the ground. He then discovered that the, nest contained at least fifty little tarantulas about as large as ariordinary black spider. The nest and its contents were at once consigned to -the kitchen fire. , Fortunately, this venomous insect has other enemies besides man, so, although. they have such !mare families, not many of them reach maturity. In this same gentleman's garden there was witnessed a very fierce battle be- tween a large kind of wasp they have here, and a full grown tarantula. The two insects would grapple with each other, and roll over and over in the dirt, but the wasp, being able to fly, could sting her enemy in the rear, and, after a desperate struggle, she had him com- pletely stupified with her poison. Then it was very interesting to watch her as she made several trips from the apider to a hole in the ground where she had her nest, as if °debating whether she , could push him into it. Finally she dragged him to the hole, and, after con- siderable toil, had hills safely buried there. She then deposited her egg, and closed up the openieg, leaving this food to keep fresh. for the hungry larva to feed upon when it should issue from the Ilegg, being all the provisions the young 'wasp would require till it flew from its cradle with full grown wings. The peo- ple here call this kind. of ,wasp "the tarantula hawk," as they call the bird a "chicken hawk." I had an opportunity, not long ago, of watching the work of the burying beetle, or big grave -digger as he is sometimes called. Imagine one of us trying to bury an elephant or hippopotamus with only our fingers to dbie out the earth! Yet it t would , not seem a more formidable un- dertaking than what I saw accmplished in a very short time by those pretty little black and orange bugs. . Three or four birds had been shot and examined by a picnin party in the woods, then thrown dawn some distance away. A little while afterward I went to this spot and found the birds almost buried out of sight. The work of ex- cavation was going on underneath the birds, .the beetles digging the earth away on each side With their fore -feet, so that the dead body -gradually sank till below the level oft -the ground, when they threw the 1r/sainted-soil over it, and made as neat a grave as could be desired. When I returned home I looked into a book on nattiral history to find out why these beetles had worked so hard to bury the dead birda. As I suspected, the same instinct guided them as in the case of the wasp with the tarantula. These birds Were to be food for the beetles' offspring till able to provide for themselves. _ There are two other kinds of insects they have here in summer, more to be dreaded than 'big spiders, as they oc- casionally come into the houses. These are scorpions and centipedes, the sting of the latter being especially poisonous. The ,scorpion looks Jike a miniature lobster, with its pinchers or claws in front, and along, narrow tail with its sharp sting at the end. They measure from two to four inches. They feed upon beetles, "flies and other insects, and run very rapidly after their prey, which they seize between their claws and pierce with their sting, to paralyze them I suppose,'so that they can eat them at leisure. Owing to the drought in this part, of Texas, but few have 'come into the houses, but in damp Seasons they are very troublesome, as you never know where you may find them, even hiding themselves in your bed or in boots and shoes. ' , - The centipede is still more formidable, and I saw one nearly a foot in length that was found when moving a rock. Two large ones were killed in a house near us. One was in the_ wood -box, and sprang savagely toward the person who struck at it. Another was seen -- crawling down the side wall of tlie room. They have a long, slender body, with twenty-one legs, and four distinct eyes on each side of their head, a pair • ` of horny jaws, and a long hook con- nected with the mouth, from which they eject the poison that makes their bite so fatal; not only to the insects they,live on, but also to man and beast if stung by them. I have heard the natives here assert -that every foot con- tains poison, and, even if a petson lives, 'the mark of each foot is alway's left upon the flesh. Little children playing near old stumps have frequently been stung by -them find have died from the _effects. But these insects will seldom attack a person unless angered, -or sup- posing themselves in danger; and they are more useful than injurious in the number of bugs destructive to crops that they kill. Thus one learns that even the most repulsive creatures are made to ac- complish some good purpose. Wedding Rings. At what period rings were first used in. the marriage ceremony it is. impossi- ble to say. The Popular Science Month- ly, from which the following facts are taken, traces theirearly use to the He- brews, who probably borrowed the cus- tom from the Egyptians, a cirle, in the lauguage of hieroglypics, being the sym- bol of eternity, and thus indicating the nature of wedded love. Both Greeks and Rorelins used wedding rings,placingthem upon the forefinger. During a part of the Middle Ages, custom demanded that "the ring should cost as much as the bridegroom could afford to pay, and cases are on record, in Germany and France, of fashionable grooms who made large investments in this: direction. The inevitable reaction came, however, arid made the prescribed symbol a plain gold circlet. iThe materials of which wedding rings have been made are as different as the nations using them. Rings ef bone and hard wood have been foundin Swiss lakes, and others, of ivory, copper, brass, lead, tin, iron, silver, and gold ccime to museums from various parts of the earth. • 'After the Crusades had inflamed all Europe, a custom arose in France, Ger- many and England of wearing rings the setting of which was made from a sup- posed fragment of the true cross. In the fourteenth century a custom prevailed in Italy of adorning, the ring with a precious. stone belouging to the month in which the bride was born. If in January, the stone was a garnet; in February an amethyst; in March the bloodstone, and in April the ‚Diamond. The emerald belonged to May, the agate to June, the relay to July, and the sardonyx to August. For September was chosen the sapphire, for October the carbuncle, for November the topaz, and for December the turquoise. , ' The fancy spread to France, and French bridegroons, who could not have too much of a good thing, wenild some- times endeavor to multiply their chances of; obtaining the good hick brought by these 'stones by presenting to their ladies twelve rings, one for each month. In- deed, the use of several rings in the mar- riage ceremony is not at all uncommon. When. Mary Stuart was • married to DarnleY four were placed upon her hind. The Greek Church uses two rings, one of silver and one of gold, and some districts of Spain and Portugal prescribe three. Fashion has, of course, determined the finger on which the ring is to be worn, and so much has it varied that the syns- bol has travelled from the thumb to the fourth finger. An 'English _work on etiquette, pub- lished in 1732, says that it is the bride's privilege to choose the, finger for her ring. It further states that some prefer the • thumb, because it is the strongest member of the hand ;others the index finger, because at its _base, lies the "Mount of Jupiter," indicating .noble aspirations; others the middle finger. because it is the longest, and still others choose the fourth, becanse "a vein pro- ceeds from it to the heart." 1 The left hand- receives the wedding ring beeause it is the emblem of sub mission, as the right is of authority, the position of the symbol on the left hand of • the- bride thus indicating ,subjection to her husband. Training a Raw Servant. A family' in the pretty suburb of Scott - wood had been in trouble with their hired girls. They had a jewel of a Ger- man girl, who had come from the East, and introduced many little ideas she had learned- there -among others, to use Pearline in the laundry and "dust cov- ers" in the bedrooms. But Louise got married, andfthe family has had,a series of incapables ever since. Driven to des- peration, the mistress finally secured a country girl, and determined to train her. She proved of Yankee deseentaind was constantly experimenting to find improved or "handier"ways of doing her work. She was told of Louise's methods, and declared she' was goin' ter see" what they were worth. In cooking she soon excelled. She took a fancy to Pearline, and, aside from wash- ing, and bleaching clothes,did wonders with it. She washed the furniture with it; put it in the water to sprinkle car- pets before sweeping; used it to sham- poo, the dog; dampened a cloth with it to rub the mantels, the book-covers,etc.; always had it in her dish -water; wash- ing blinds and woodwork with it; in short, cleaned everything, the house in- cluded with it. With Pearline for an ally, she declares "the cholera won't stand no show round this -'ere house-!"
