1t is said that worms are often more
destructive TO forests han fires or whirl-
winds. The insects lay their eggs under
the bark and they hatch in the darkness,
which is a necessary element for their
development. When they hatch into
the grub form they bore their way into
the sap wood and then make a circle
around the tree once, twice, and perhaps
three times, before it is time for them
to turn into perfect winged insects. This
stops the flow of the sap and the growth
of the tree, and eventually the tree dies.
Large tracks of dense forest in Maine
have been destroyed in this way, and
sometimes tracts in the Adirondacks.
1t is claimed to be better for the forest
to let in the woodman and allow him to
thin out the trees and thus give light and
air to the earth and forest growth. These
insects will not develop where there is
plenty of air and light, and it would be
we'll for those who own a tract of wood
land to bear this in mind and thin it
sufficiently to prevent a dense, dark
growth. 1t is told of a Maine man that
he held a piece of forest for thirty years
and would never allow any wood to be
cut on it. When he came to examine
it he found that a large part of it had
been ruined by the girdle worm.-

When we study a state at its center,
its political action, its organization, its
spirit, the management of its institutions
of learning and of charity, the tenden-
cies, restrictive or liberal, of its legisla-
ton, even the tom of social life and the
code of manners, we discover distinctions,
individualities, almost as many differ
ences as re~semblances. And we see-the
saving truth in our national life-that
each state is a well nigh indestructible
entity, an empire in itself, proud and
conscious of its p~eculiarities, and jealous
of its rights. We see that state bound
aries are not imaginary lines, made by
the geographers, which could be easily
altered by the central power. Nothing,
indeed, in our whole national develop
ment, considering the common influences
that have made us, is so remarkable as
the difference of the several states. Even
on the lines of a common settlement, say
from New England and New York, note
the difference between northern Ohio,
northern Indiana, northern Illinois, Wis
consin and Minnesota. Or take another
line and see the difference between
southern Ohio, southern Indiana, south
ern Illinois and northern Missouri.
But each state, with its diverse popu-
lation, has a certain homogeneity and
character of its own. We can under
stand this where there are great differ
ences of climate, or when one is noun
famous and the other is flat. But why
should Indiana be so totally unlike the
two states that flank it in so many of the
developments of civilized life or in re-
tarded action; and why should Iowa, in
its entire temper and spirit, be q unlike
1linoisa One state copies the institutions
of another, but there is always some
thing in its life that it does not copy from
any other .-Harper's Magazine.

Yes, lawyers frequently call upon
clerks for points in pleadings and prac'
tice. In fact. scarcely a day passes but
that some lawyer, frequently the most
successful practitioner, will call upon the
clerk for information relative to the de-
tails of pleadings, and the suggestions
given are generally of incalculable bene-
fit, because always accurate. \ major
ity of lawyers are up with the law and
authorities, but many of them are rusty
in the ordinary ~pleadings, which are
sometimes rather complicated. - Deputy

Printing on Green Paper.

Several of the French railway compa-
MES, and other public bodies. have
adopted the practice Of having their
printing lone on green instead Of white
paper. The reason for this alteration is
that they have concluded that the COM
bination Of white paper with black char
acters endangers the eyesight of their
work people. Black on green has al
ways been recognized as a good comb
nation for this puspose, and many rail
way tickets are 50 printed.-Nsw York

Manufacturer of Artificial Silk.

Artificial silk is the latest discovery,
and judging from the details of it that are
to hand, it seems likely that the silk
worms occupation will soon be gone,
and that he may retire to his cocoon and
lament his lost importance in silence.
The new material is made, W. are told,
from a kind of collodion, to which has
been added perchloride Of iron and tan
mic acid. The process of manufacture is
somewhat complicated, but the result
seems to be all that a be desired in the
way Of providing a substance practically
equal to good silk.-Frank Leslie's.

Rare and Interesting Relics.

There is a thriving industry at Niche
waug in Petersham, where ornamental
articles are made from rare woods grown
in this country and abroad. The pro-
prietof has in stock a wheel belonging to
a chariot in Egypt which shows the rude
workmanship of those times. Alover of
interesting relics has brought to the shop
a piece of an old whipping post which
stood in Richmond, Va, in slavery times.
Some pretty articles were turned out
from this interesting piece of wood
