Where Mosquitoes Come From.

Where Mosquitoes Come From.
A writer on entomology, discussing about
these numerous pests, thus handles the
subject:
"The mosquito proceeds from the ani-
malcule commonly termed the "wiggle-
tail" took q bowl of clean water and
set it in the sun. In few days some
half dozen wiggle-tails were visible. These
continued to increase in size till they were
about 3-16th of an inch in length. As
they approached their maturity they re-
manned longer at the surface seeming to
live in the two mediums- air and water;
finally, they assumed chrysalis form, and
by an increased specific gravity, sank to-
the bottom of the bowl Here, in few
hours, perceived short black furze, or
hair, growing on every side Of each, until
it assumed the size of minute caterpil-
lar. And thus its specific gravity being
counteracted, or lightened, it rapidly float
ed to the surface, and the slightest breath
of air waited it against the side Of the
bowl. In very brief space of time af-
terwards, the warm atmosphere hatched
out the fly, and it escaped, leaving its tiny
house upon the water. How beautiful,
yet how simplel
After the water had gone through this
process, found it perfectly free from any
animalcul@ l therefore came to the con-
clusion that this wiggle-tail is species Of
the shark, who having deyonred whole
tribes of animalculR, takes to himself
wings and escapes intoa different medium
to torture mankind, and deposit eggs upon
the water to produce other wiggle-taiIs,
who in turn produce other mosquitoes.
Any man who has akept house. with
cistern in the yard, has doubtless OBJ
served the same effect every summer
Open your cistern cover any morning in
the mosquito season, and millions of them
will fly up in your face. Close the vim
dows of your room at night at the risk
of being smothered for want of air, being
careful at the same time previously to ex-
clude every mosquito, and go to bed with
a pitcher of that same cistern water in
the room, and enough will breed from it
during the night to give you any satis-
factory amount of trouble. In fact, stand
ing bya shallow, half-stagnant pool, II .
mid-slmmer's day, you may see the wig-
gle-tails become perfectly developed mos
quitoes, and they viii rise from the sur
face of the water. and fly into your face
and sting you. What it is necessary to
know at this day is-has there yet been
discovered any positive exterminator Of
that Internal pest, and disturber Of nights
slumbers, the musquito?

How to Borrow.

A certain editor, well known for his
bonnie fortune, threw his smiles upon a
rat of the Imperial Academy of Music.
The rat experienced natural anxiety to
gnaw the purse string of her admirer, but
could not exactly see her way. While
thinking the matter over, Bohemian of
her acquaintance came in.
DO you think, said the young artist,
that v will be willing to lend me three
thousand francs?'
More than doubtful. But he might be
induced to do it. Write as l shall dictate.
Beloved, I expected some money this
morning, and have been disappointed.
This is very old story interrupted
the rat
Go on. Bring me three thousand francs,
and come dine with me at the same time

Because it was essential that a first
note should ,precede the one am about

What! write another?'
Only few words N
Dear consider my letter as not
written. At the.very moment had dis
patched it, the expected remittance made
its appearance; / am now richissime.
But don't forget, l expect you to dinner;
the pheasant is magnificent
The second letter was sent after the
first.
Now said the Bohemian, this is what
will happen. V will pretend not te
