Immediately the weight was lifted from
our hearts. Some grasshoppers were left
near our buildings, but they were merely
going TO rest for the night, and by noon
next day very few were TO be seen. In
just one week from the day of their first
arrival, a great shower of grasshoppers fell
again, and began TO devour what the others
had left. One corn field which the others
had len in part, and which still promised
a small harvest, was attacked by these lat
err marauders, and our last hope for corn
that season soon vanished.
Our sbade-trees were entirely stripped OF
their leaves, the netting screens in our
doors and windows hung in tatlers, and
the greedy millions made their way into
our houses to devour plants which we
thought hidden from their insatiate little
jaws. They ate holes in clothing, in cur
tains and in pin-cushions, and l heard OF
one woman who found the draught of her
stove clogged with grasshoppers, they hav-
ing fallen down the pipe in such numbers
as 10 ill it.

that Power which can bar the raging waves

send an army of little insects to bring to
naught the boasted work OF man.
The third day afler their arrival, clouds
fitted across the sun at intervals, SCREEN

night company OF Us, daughters of these
prairies, dragged our really exhausted
selves 10 the river, hoping to find little
refrcshment by bath. We were scarcely
in the water before we were startled by a
crash, peal, and then a rushing wind.
Peering over the high northern bank, we
saw black cloud driven furiously up to-
ward the zenith, and at the same Time the
sun burst from under a dark veil in the
west, revealing to our eyes scene Of won
der. Myriads upon myriads of little wings
were flashing like specks OF silver in the
sunlight, not only as far as the eye could
reach, east, west, and south, but as far as
we could see into the air above us, and we
knew the grasshoppers were driven again
before the north wind.
Wher our bath was finished, very few Of
them were left 10 annoy us as we returned
home, and great was our relief and joy to
have them gone. But We did not look for

Strawberry and ice scream festivals are
now in order. No village with any pre-
tentions at all 10 share in the civilization
of the present day can we'll afford to disre-
gard what custom has prescribed in this
matter. Accordingly, an epidemic OF such
festivals is sweeping over the country, TAX
ing a course from South TO North, with a
rapidity that is naturally regulated by the
condition of the strawberry beds. More
over it is quite evident to everybody who
has exercised a little observation that these
festivals enjoy great degree Of popularity.
They are we'll patronized, and apparently
very well enjoyed. This shows at least
that the people are quite ready to enter
into anything of the kind which promises
intercourse, since a craving for the straw
berries and the cream is not the only i'm
pulse that draws them together. 1t seems
to be pity that such festivals frequently
have one feature which renders them less
popular than they might be. We allude TO
their seetarian character. We have Bap-
tbs. festivals, Protestant Episcopal festi-
walls, Presbyterian festivals, and so on
through the whole list OF the denominations
which happen to have an organization In
any particular village. So long as the fes-
tlvals are to be regarded simply as means
of raising money, this is all very we'll.
But they have their social aspect as we'll :
and then follows the conjecture whether
something could not be devised which
