Buffers New LRy-s'St1rrfnG up" the I'm surance Companies.
 BOSTON, Sept 12.-In view of the report of Insurance Commissioner Tarbox Governor
 Butler has written him a letter of congratu- lation in which he says: 'In view of what you have already discovered urge the most
 careful and vigorous examination of all in- surance companies doing business in this commonwealth, directing your attention first to those of whose soundness or the proprie-
 ty of whose modes of business you have cause to suspect" He also directs him to
 report all violations of law to the attorney general and further says: 'Let the man who
 perjures himself in making statements, or who reirsures in violation of law one of our citizens in companies that are not permitted to do businsss in this State because they are not fully up to our standard, be prosecuted with a vigor that will teach all such rascaIs that frauds by assurers and insurance com panies are very dangerous in the common wealth of Massachusetts while you are ex- aminer and under the present executive"
 The Globe tomorrow will publish a long report of Insurance Commissioner Tarbox on the condition of the department to Governor Butler at the latter's request, the document seemingly being offered as 8 vindication of the Governors removal of Commissioner Clark and the appointment of Tsrbox. The commissioner says with reference to his recent exposures: "The insurance laws of this State are sufficient to fully protect the public from unsafe and fraudulent companies provided the laws are honestly, -fearlessly and efficiently administered, but the laws have been Ragrantly and inexcusably violated. Commissioner Clark was in the habit of. withholding information concerning the con- dition of the insurance companies and thus defeating the very purpose of the law" He then states in detail that ] the law requiring examinations have been I almost wholly violated, and shows the results I in the failure of many companies and great | loss to the people. There are other disclos- ures still more discreditable to the depart ! ment. The document is sure to have great influence in the coming campaign.

Mark was mysteriously informed that

The Gnat.

Do you know what a gnat isp 1t is
the little mosquito that troubles you in
the summertime. What d tease it is,
to be surel But why are mosquitoes SO
troublesomep When | tell you how
queerly they are made, you will under
stand it. fR PHI
Their small bodies are long, and
shaped just like tube. When they are
living quietly (and they do, sometimes)
their wings cross each other queerly.
If you could only look at these wings
through glass, you would think they
were very pretty things. The edges
are all covered with scales shaped like
long plates. and beautifully marked,
something like fishes
/. Their antenne, or feelers, look rs if
they were made of the finest feathers
As for their eyes, they are so large as
to cover the whole head. They look
like lace. Some are green, and change
with the light to red.
What the gnat uses for piercing the
skin is called the trunk, or proboscis.
1t is much like the lancets in "a doctor
or surgeons case. The trunk is little
tube, split from end to end that it may
open easily. Inside of it is perfect
bundle of stings, which look like need
les. They are very sharp, with five
points, and bent just like crochet
needles. When the gnat lights on your
face or hands, in 90 those five needles.
They carry with them drop of poison
to your blood, which stings well.
If you are ever stung, let the naughty
gnat draw the hooks out very carefully.
You will not feel the sting half us much
as if the insect left the five poison hooks
in your flesh ~ Oztr Little Ones.
