The male ant is a poor thing, which lives only afew days or we?ks. Miss Fielde said she had seenthree male ants being fed by one worker, and threemore standing by, awaiting their turn to be fed.Queen ants lay the eggs, and may live into theirfifteenth year. Ants willgo sixty yards in searchof food, but they practise an economy in respect to

foods that humans might well copy."I mixed honey with turmeric and cochineal,

said Miss Fielde, ""and fed it to some ants for threemonths They would separate the honey and rollthe adulterants up in tiny pellets In one corner oftheir house."

What ants lack In eyesight and hearing theymore than make up for In small, being possessed ofa long. Joint6d nose, which Is reality amoutns toseveral noses. Miss Fielde has operated on ants In

accordance with modern antiseptic principles, andis in a position to state that the top nose is fordetecting members of alien colonies, and the sec-

Her Experiments with These Wise LittleInsects in Her Home.

Ants can give human beings points on the pure

food question, on race solidarity, the feeding of

children and personal unselfishness, accordinp to

Miss Adels M. Fk'lde."The Social OrganizatioM of an Ant Community"

furnished Miss Fielde with a congenial theme for

her lecture before the Society for Political Educa-

tion yesterday morning.

"Ibegan the study of ants six years ago," said

Miss Fielde, "and have kept it up ever since."Then, with the aid of stereopticon pictures, she

showed how to make a three-room artificial home

for the little creatures, with glass and Turkishtowelling and a moistened sponge in one room.

"They will need that for the humidity, and will

also find it handy for the ant babies' toilet," she

added.The chief industry of a colony consists In feed-

ing the yotmg. although no one ant is devoted ex-clusively to the care of any one ant baby. Miss

Fielde said she hoped the tirti'j would come. whenhuman mothers would care in the sajne universalway for human babies.

The Simple and Beautiful Life forChildren by Mrs. Sangster.

"This book Is a friendly message to mothers, to

those who believe In the life simple and the lifebeautiful, to those who think this a good world to

live in and would fain bring up their children to

adorn it. Ihave had the confidences of many

mothers. IKnow how true they are, and some-times how tried, and Isend them my note of che«rIn the midst of their toillnu days.

"The American mother— Gou bless her!"No description of the contents of "Radiant

Motherhood: A Book for the Twentieth Century

Mother," by Margaret E. Sangster (the Bobbs-Merrill Company, Indianapolis); could more pret-tilyor justlyIndicate its character than this quota-

tion from Mrs. Sangster's "Foreword."This is a book for mothers. As Mrs. Sangster

puts it: "This book Is not addressed to fathers.They would not have time to read it. Whoever

heard of fathers in congress conferring over the

best methods of training children, comparing foods,

and schools, and books, and experiences, striving

to l^arn from one another what might best be done

for the next generation? Fathers are too busily

occupied in earning the living of the children to

spend time and thought in this costly way.

"The man's province is In the open. The woman's

is eternally within the home. She touches the

finer issues, she holds the keys of destiny."

To women who feel as intensely as the authorwould have them, their high calling, "RadiantMotherhood" cannot but be replete with helpful-

ness and wisdom. From the opening chapter, on"The Maternal Attitude," to the closing, on "Ques-tions for the Mothers' Clubs." scarcely a phase ofa woman's relation to her children and her chil-dren's children but is illumined.

Under the chapter on religious training the au-thor gives two specimen prayers. One, for themorning, runs as follows:

SHAWS NEW EMPORIUM.

Three Successful Daughters of theMaine Woods.

With the advent of the woman of leisure into the

fainting field a new profession has been opened up

\u25a0to the woman who has to earn her own living.

"Women hunters want women guides, even when

«here are men In the party, and there is now agreat demand for such services in the woods of

CMaine, although up to the present time only three

women have registered for the work. They are in

constant demand and get rood pay. with the addi-

tion of occasional handsome presents from theirwealthy patrons.

The guide's business is to put his or her patrons

on the track of game or fish, and to see that the

Same laws are observed. She finds the hunting

grounds or fishing waters, prepares the camp,

makes the flies, does the cooking and relieves the

hunters of all drudgery. She must also see that

the campflres do not ignite the surrounding timber,

and must make an annual report to the Game Com-missioner.

There are hundreds of women, it !s said, in the

feackwoods of Mair.e who are qualified for such\u25a0work, and as the annual influx of women hunters

increases many of them are sure to find their way

Into this field. These women, reared in the woods,

know /every lake and stream and every forest path

and woodland trail, and have grown up with rifle,

rod and paddle in their hands. »,„,„.The first woman to register as a guide in Maine

ARTISTIC CHRISTMAS GIFTS.

"What a delightful, queer, little place!1'

people al-

most invariably exclaim on their first visit to the

Quaint Shop, at No. 28% West. £J<3-st. (opposite tne

was for many years with the Japanese Trading

Company and with leading art houses, and he says

he enjoys his collection of rare old Sung, Corcan andMing potteries, his old porcelains, bod brocades and

cut velvets, old prints, antique jewelry. oils and

water colors, as much as any of his customers. The

man or woman who owns up to a weakness for olii

many good women, Mrs. Sangster not only tol-erates, but defends.

"A happy child repeats the petition and has nospeculation, and, older grown. It Is an amulet,

that asking God, if the Bleep here should be ena-lew. that the waking may be in God's House onhigh. 1 have never heard of a little child whomthat prayer frightened." . ...

With the passion of mothers to hurry their chil-dren on from class to class at school, without

delay or interruption the author has little pa-tience. Nor with "home work." which she sayswill be non-existent when the millennium comes.

"Children ought." she says, "to be encouragedto learn all sorts of outdoor sports, to raise flowersand vegetables, to study birds and keep pets.

"A boy who has never had a dog of his own Isnlmost as forlorn :>b a dog who has no master.

•V house in which there are only inanimate objects,

pictures, chairs and tables, is a dull house."Ore eminently eommonsense chapter Is devoted

to "a few mistakes." Mistake No. 1 Is to punishseverely a child for telling those romantic. Im-aginative, incredible and absolutely superfluouslies that almost all children of any vivacity oftemperament hav<- a period of telling. "The chas-tisement is cruelly misplaced. There are lies andlies The lie of malice and of meanness is not

Often found on childish lips. It probably doesdeserve a rod of some sort. But. alas! for mothersand their blunders, the lie of cowardice is taughtto shrinking children by severity, and those whowould never have been other than truthful hadthey been understood, are made liars by the. verypunishments intended to brand deceit and make itshocking." ,_ , „

Mistake No. 2 is to he forever saying '. Don t.

Mistake No. 8 is to pounce on a child tor an acci-dent, or mishap, treating It as if the act were agrievous fault or a wilful disobedience. MistakeKo 4 Is committed when a mother, resolved thather child shall be fearless, compels her to stay in

a dark room, without a light. Still another 'blun-der is committed by the mother who secludes herboy or girl, depriving them of the opportunity tomingle with other children.

Mr«. Sangßter insists that it is a groat mistaketo brine up children to have everything done forthem and to do nothing for themselves. Everychild should have chores to do. Likawisn everychild, for his own safety, should learn how toswim, manage a boat or canoe, how to ride anddrive, how to dance and how to skate, how to usetools and how to use firearms.

Other chapters deal with manners, the boy nextdoor when the children marry, motherhood in fic-tion, motherhood in the Bible and Questions forthe mothers' cluba.
