Bert C. Morgan federal prohibition agent for Indiana has announced that it is a’violation of both federal and state laws to manufacture grape wine: He says that one may make grape juice or any other fruit juices, but they must not be allowed to ferment. No sugar must be added or any other ingredient _that will increase the percentage of alcohol.

Carl Reamer aged 14 a Kendallville lad has confessed to setting fire to a number of buildings in that city and he is now in custody of the county probation officer, John Cingleton ‘at Albion until "his' case can be disposed of. The boy met his undoing when he - fired a business block Tuesday night in the centre of the city. )

SYMPATHY IS SHOWN BY ANTS Naturalist Tells How They Set Free ‘ Their Fellows When He limprisoned Them. ' An emipent paturalist, while watching a column of foraging ants, one day, placed a small stone on one of them to secure it. The next that approached, on discovering the situation of its assoclate, ram back in an excited manner and communicated with the others, when all rushed to the rescue. Some bit at the stone and tried to move it, others seized the prisoner by the legs and tugged with a force which threatened to separate them from its body; but they persevered until they got the captive free. = ;

Interested by this evidence of intelligence, the naturalist next covered one of the ants with a plece of clay, leavIng only the ends of its antennae proJecting. It was soon discovered by its fellows, who set to work immediately and by biting off pieces of the clay soon liberated it. o

‘On another occasion a very few ants were passing along at intervals. One of these was confined under a piece of clay a little distance from-the trail, ‘Wwith its head projecting. Several ants went by without seeing it, but at last it was discovered by a sharp-eyed friend that at once undertook to pull it out. Falling in this it immediately hurried off for assistance, and soon returned with a dozen or more companfons, all evidently fully informed of the circumstances of the case, for they made directly for their imprisoned comrade, and shortly set him free. Can such actions be regarded as instinctive? - They seem rather to be the result of sympathy, the ants rendering to their fellows such assistance as man is in the habit of rendering to his kind,

STARFISH HAS MANY FEET

Cover the Underside of Each Arm and Are Witiddrawn Inside - : Skin When He Rests.

The starfish is one of the commonest of sea-shore creatures. If you pick one out of his pool and place him in a vessel full of salt water, you will soon find that he is beginning to walk: The underside of each arm is covered with an immense numhber of tiny feet. When the starfish is at rest all these feet are drawn up inside his skin, but as soon as he wants to move he pushes them out in all directions. Each of them has a little sucker at its. end. He makes very good use of these suckers .when he comes across his favorite food, an oyster, or some other shell fish. He climbs onto the shell and entwines his arms around (it Every sucker takes a firm hold, and ‘then he begins to pull. The oyster pulls against him, but usually the starfish manages in the end to make bim open. his shell a fraction of an inch. As soon as this happens, he squirts into the shell a quantity of poison, which has the effect of paralyzing the muscle which holds it shut. And the starfish dines at his leisure. Some fishermen ‘are so annoyed when they pull up a starfish that they tear him in two. But each of the torn ‘halves soon shoots out new limbs and becomes a complete starfish. |

Ashamed of the Oid Folks.

A story is going the rounds of prep schools .and colleges which has enough truth in it to make it useful whether the words were ever spoken or not. It is funny and 1t is sad. A lad—pupil in a:great fitting school—is represented as saying to his parents: “You make it very difficult for me with my schoolmates. Father is a prosperous business man and mother comes to see me in a D—car,” (naming one of the inexpensive makes).. The idea conveéyed is that in the gilded circle in which the boy moves, the merely industrious, good-citizen type of dad is rather bad form; he should be a whirlwind of conspicuousness of some sort—literature, perhaps, or grafting finance of the official class, it is immaterial.— New Haven Journal-Courier.
