THE HUM OF INSECTS.
That Part OF the Insect by which AIos.
the Sound Is Produced is the Thorax.

That Part OF the Insect by which Alone
the Sound Is Produced Is the Tkorax.
It is an opinion generally enter
tanned that the noise produced by in
sects, such as the gadhy and bee, dur
ing their flight, arises from the vibra-
ton or rapid motion of their wings.
Such a supposition is extremely plaus-
ible at first sight We see the animal
moving through the air; we know
that the wings are IN a state of rapid
motion; and we also know that Il is
natural for a body rapidly vibrating
in the atmosphere to cause sound.
We put all these facts together, and
we conclude that the phenomenon is
explained when we attribute the
sound TO the rapid waving of the
wings. But, like many other hypoth-
eses which owe their origin TO the evil
dence of the senses alone, this appears
to be erroneous. The subject has been
investigated with much ingenuity, and
the conclusion arrived at is very diff
ferent from the common belief. We
shall present brief outline of the re-
searches. They are not only interest
ing In themsel yes, but afford a good
example of the manner in which sci
entific investigations are pursued
1t has been found that the wings
have no part in the formation of the
sound, for the hum of the insect con
tinues even when its wings are entire
ly cut away. There is, however. a
different pitch of the sound, and It
has been ascertained that the more of
the wing there Is taken away the
higher this becomes. The sound which
the insect emits is susceptible of con-
siderable variations. 1t NAV he that
1t maintains an equality of pitch and
strength during uniform motion Of
the wings, for so in fact ii appears:
but every change in the velocity of
the flight, every disturbance of the or
dinary motion, generally causes also
an alteration IN the tone. An idea OF
the origin of the tone is, however.
only to be obtained when the insect Is
held By the legs, and excited by pres
sure or other means 10 go through all
its motions of the wing, and thus TO
produce a sound. It has been found
in this manner that the tone of the
common gadhy varied as the effort 10
extricate itself was put forth with
greater or less energy.
That part of the insect by which alone
tie sound Is produced is the breast or
thorax. Intwo-wingedin insects thiscon-
sists simply of a cavity covered by a
thin membrane, which exhibits on Its
surface various elevations and depres-

continuous To this hollow case are
attached different sets of muscles,
which serve for the motion of the
legs and wings. and are capable of
contracting the cavity in various di-
rections- In this cavity of the insects
thorax there are two very small holes,
which let AIR out or IN by the follow
ing process; When the wings rise and
fall, as IN flying. the cavity IS alter
nately contracted or expanded, the re-
suit of peculiar mechanism on which
the motion is dependent. Now it is
clear that the contraction must drive
out part OF the air, Just as piperex-
pels the air from the bag of his instru-
ment by pressing his arm against il.
On the other hand, when the cavity
OF the insect is expanded by an oppo-
site motion of the wing. an equal
quantity of air rushes through the air
holes There IS, therefore, connected
with the motion of the wings a con-
slant proportionally rapid and intense
breathing, and this breathing IS the
true cause of the sound IL IS the ef-
lux and the influx of the air which
produces the buzz or hum which we
hear, Just as the current of air draws
music from the Eolian harp when
forced at short intervals through the
small holes of the soundboard, or. to
take a more familiar example, by a
mechanism similar to that of the
mouth in whistling. The sound of the
Eolian harp bears n remarkable re-
semblance to that of many insects.
Now, 1t is evident that this theory
can be proved or disproved In a very
simple and satisfactory manner
namely, by closing up the air holes of
the thoraX of the insect, without in
lurlng ii in any other way. This was
done, and the flight of the gadfiy was
then found to be accompanied by no
sound whatever. 1t is true that the
insect dies of suffocation soon after
such an experiment, but not directly.
because there arc air holes situated
lower down, in the abdomen of the
animal, and through these respiration
IS continued for a short time. But
they emit no sound during the flight
OF the insect. for they are then totally
inactive. The insect breathes from
the air holes of the abdominal part
when it sits and crawls, but through
the air holes of the thorax when on
the wing. According to this view,
the hum of insects is in reality q

UneauaIed.

An epicure, who was also an ardent
sportsman, was asked suddenly to
name the best fish. He was greatly
embarrassed, he says. He thought Of
the delicious smelt, of the salmon, of
the shad, of the Spanish mackereI.
and the more he thought the more
impossible became the decision. Then
all at once the word came to him and
he answered: "GentIemen, think the
best fish Is fresh fish" !"
This reply was almost as happy as
one given by a famous negro cook In
Richmond.
a company of diners out got into a
warm discussion as 10 which bird
should be pronounced the finest for
the table
Some favored the woodcock, others
set the canyasbaclz duck at the head,
a Philadelphia man stood up for the
reed bI-d, western man talked about
the grouse and the pheasant, and one
or two would have it that none of
these were equal to the grass ployer.
Finally II was agreed TO leave the
question to the cook. He hesitated,
looked from one man to another. and
scratched his head. Then he delivered
himself thus:
.Gemmen, pears to me dat de best
bird am de American eagle, nicely
spread out on a silvah dollah.1
His verdict was approved. and he
got the dollar--Youth's Companion.
