THE THREE PRINCIPAL EVENTS IN THE
LIFE OF MAN.

There is great diversity of opinion as to which are
the principal events in the life of man Some writ
ers claim that one of the most Important events is
when he falls in love. Now his future happiness does
depend a good bit upon who he falls in love with.
Very often the right man marres the wrong woman
and vice versa piobably oener vice versa than the
other extreme.
The three important events in the life of man are
here given These points cannot be contradicted and
every citizen of Washington will at once that they
are correct beyond all dispute
]. When the young man first discovers q very faint
sign OF mustache. That is period of happiness.
2. When he observes with feelings of sorrow that
his hair Is getting gray. That period of gloom but
he soon RECEIVERS from it.
8. When he goes to VICTOR E ADLERS Ten Per
Cent Clothing House for his clothing. That is period
of good luck Tor ADLERS is the place to secure the
best goods for the least money
We have given the three principal points in the life
ofman now let US give the advantages of buying at
ADLERS:
1. You get Clothing at q very slight advance above
manufacturing COST
2 You always get good material and the best posi-
BILE work.
3. You get the benefit of the One-Price system and
you always get the lowest prices.
T. You buy of q Reliable House with an established
reputation.

\ DESTRUCTIVE ENEMY OF THE SHADE TREES
AND MIGRATORY BUTTERFLIES.
The fall web-worm, known technically as the
Hypantris textor has this season. the Baltimore
Sun says, done havoc on nearly ali the shades
3rees OF Balti moreandW ashington. In the Lat ter
city miles OF shade trees have not a single leaf
left upon them. The damage in Baltimore is
mainly confined To the " bite poplar, balsam pop
lar, cottonwood. lombardy poplar, box, elder,
willow, elm, linden and irIit trees. The trees
IN Druid Hill Park have escaped so tar, owing
10 the absence OF poplar trees, which seem TO
be the chieI attraction Tor this insect. Ii this
worm increases next year in the same ratio
IL has Tor the last year or two necessary precau-
lions will have TO be taken 10 stop its Roadway.
w hitewash1ng the trunks OF shade trees, as has
been done in Washington, Is of no service
since the parent insects are winged in both
sexes. and they never 90 TO the trouble OF crawl
Ing up The trunk OF tree. BY concerted ac-
lion OF citizens and city authorities this insect
can reauliy be Kept in check. As soon as the
young WORMS appear they spin white dense
tain hours oI the day They leave this nest but
twice day To Ieed-Once early in the morning
and again towards evening. During the rest
OF the lime they are Within their tent-like nest
This nest being plainly visible by its white
color, and being always at the tips OF the
branches, Can easily be removed and burned.
III this Is done at "a time when the nests first ap-
pear, tbat II during the month OF May, the in
sects will be wiped out.
There has been much talk in Baltimore about
the great number OF large brown butterflies
moving southwark in swarms varying rom so
10 loo In number. This insect is the we'll
known milk-weed butterfly, or Danais arciiip-
lus. which is very abundant ali over The United
States east OF the Rocky Mountains II extends
north as far as Hudson bay. The great peculi-
aElty OF this insect lies in the TACT that il is the
only North American migratory insect known.
During the early fall IL starts its migration 10
the sunny South, and does not stop until IL has
reached the Southern extremity of Florida
certain trees there, mainly a certain species oil
pine, are selected as alternating quarters The
butterflies with close y-reefed wings, huddled
togeiher as closely as possible, wait until spring
when they travel again to the North. A CLOSELY
allied species on the Pacific coast migrates in
Inc saline way To the southern peninsula of
California. PROT Otto Lugger, of the Depart
ment OF Agriculture, goes 10 the swamps OF
louisiana, this week. TO continue bis studies on

raised deck ait and q forcastie deck on the ex-
treme forward end. Selected white pine Is used

small houses, handsomely decorated and
finished in polished wood. The front or forward

with Turkish rugs of oriental style, which will
lie in convenient parts OF the cabin. Surround

but adjourned over Tuesday in consequence OF
The death OF Assessor Baker. who was mo-
