In Praise Of the Blusbottle.

An animal Ii wanted for the special
purpose of destroying c~arrion, % a. to
prevent it becoming . nuisance. The
creature appropriate for this purpose ID
a small worm, known a. maggot. But
how are such worms to be sxtemporized,
when q mass of putrid meat IL to be
disposed? The difficulty is beautifully
got over BY sending q particular kind Of
big fly called q bluebottle, that is emit
tied to rank - a encouragement.
Jnstinctively, the bluebottle discovers
where its services are required. There
it deposits eggs; the eggs very speedily
become maggots, and the maggots make
short work Of eating up every scrap Of

they cannot ~ away. This, however,
is provided for. They undergo . trans.
formation into flies, and they rot CT in
a flight for new substances requiring
their attention. This is but q brief
explanation of the process of transfer
nation which is various according to
circumstances. It il sufficient to impress
us with the fact that the creature refer
red to is In . ense two distinct animals.
1t has q flying life and . crawling life;
or, more correctly, while in its Tying
state, it IAN originate . host Of crawling
creatures admirably adapted for the de-
sign in view. In pursuing its profession

being particular. It will ~ readily attack
q joint of meat ~ . dead horse. Cooks,
of course, have = detestation of blue
bottles, which they think are created
only to torment them, and they would
be glad to hear that they extermin-
ated off the face Of the earth. This il
being q little unreasonable. Bluebot
ties have . right to live, If they can.
No doubt they make themselves very
troublesome when by accident they find
their way into the room, and keep bux.
xing on the window-paneA On these
occasions they are to be pitied. They
are trying to get out, with the view Of
performing their proper functions, and
they should be let ont accordingly. If
they wish to 60 about their business,
why not let them 60 by all means, and
be thankful for the Yiddancef In short,
