A Hor WEATHER IrEu.--A common
house-fy almost invariably rests With is
head downward, aud however il may
aight works It's way downward until this
direction is assumed The biting flies, on
the contrary, n universally rest with the
head pointing upward, acting in this pre-
ciscly like the equally bloodthrsty mos
quito. The brother Of az eminent Rus
SIAN entemologist, now residing in the
United States observed a peasant in bis
own country killing some Of the flies On o
wall VI lls own hut without disturbing
others, and, % being questioned, he gave
as reason that those with the heads up
were 'titeis' and the others were not.
A careful examination Of the facts by the
entomologist himself proved the accuracy
Of the generalization thus made By an ig-
noraut but obseryant man.
