Dom Pedro's mode of life at present,
as he informed the writer in a recent
conversation at Nice, differs little from
that which ne was accustomed to in
Brazil. His chief pleasure seems to be
derived from literature. His study,
which is on the second floor of the
Hotel Beau-le-JOur, commands q full
view of the Mediterranean, and is en-
bellished with handsomely bound vol
umes of many of the famous authors
of ancient and modern times. His
favOrite among the latter Is Victor
Hugo. The Emperor rises every morn
ing at 6 o'clock, and, after partakng Of
his cafe au lait, reads the newspapers,
many Of which are published in vari-
Gus languages. At 9 o'clock he has s
genuine Yankee breakfast, a taste and
habit he acquired while visiting the
United States. He then goes out for
a drive, in the course of which he VS.
its places of historical interest. Re
turning to his apartment about noon,
he partakes of a light luncheon, then
spends two hours in his library. At 2
o'clock he has his dinner served in
French style. After dinner he some
times receives intimate friends to
whom he devOtes an hour or so. Later
he takes a walk for about a half hour.
Returning to his study, he gives him
self up to writing until Z o'clock,
when supper is served After sup
per an hour is devoted to the society of
the members of his household, who en-
terrain him with some fayOrite games {:
finishing this, he returns to his library,
where he cOmmunes with his chosen
authors until 9 or 10 o'clock, when he
retires for the night.

history is repIete with great interest to
the naturalist, it is not an enjoyable
one to the plowman who has his head
jerked nearly off as the team tries to get
rid Of this pestilentiaI fly. Probably
in the entire economy of nature there
is not a specimen of animate creation
that is endowed with finer instincts of
life preservation and perpetuitv of its
species than this fly The male is a
trife darker than the female, and has
a rOunder body. During the breeding
season they make their nuptial fight
in the morning, making their trysting
place near some hedge or large tree,
then they make q wedding flight in
search of place of deposit for their
eggs, remaining On the wing, like all
the rest of this tribe of insects, until
the place is found Approaching the
horse, generally from above, they buzz
awhile about his ears, seemingly to
attract attention, when the horse,
knowing how painful the punishment,
often becomes nearly wild in his efforts
to keep them away. The female soon
leaves her mate, and the latter con
tinues to annoy the horse about the
head, sometimes, but not often, sting
ing the horses ears to keep his atten-
ton from what his mate is attempting
to do below
The female seems to instinctively
prefer to lay her eggs upon the long
leg hairs, fetlOck, and sometimes on
the tail of horses, agglutinating them
thereto by means of q peculiar viscid
secretion with which she surrounds her
eggs. These eggs are fastened side
ways to the hairs. are Of enormous size
in proportion to their number and the
size Of the insect, pOintedly oval at one
end, hattened at the other. They con-
tain more or less matured larvae at the
time they are deposited. These lower
order of insects mature very rapidly
and marry young, and when they are
mature the least particle of saliva or
any moisture dissOlves their casing and
let's them out of their incubator 1t
takes but a short time for them to
reach their maturity, in this transfer
nation, after being deposited on the
hairs as described.
When the female has deposited her
eggs she appears to sink into coma
tOse condition by exhaustion, utter
ring peculiar noise as she finishes,
WhereupOn the male, ceasing his bust
ness above, joins his mate and they
Immediately go counting again, adher-
ing this time near where the eggs are
deposited. When ready for their next
fight, for a single pair was never
known to deposit two broods of eggs
in the same place cOnsecutiveIy with
out taking fight, they fly very
nOiselessly upward, striking the
horse repeatedly about the nose and
mouth, causing a singing sensation
which impels the horse to rub the nose,
which is generally done on the knee or
shin; the moisture of the mouth and
tongue dissOIves the egg cOaGngs of
the mature Larvae; the Larvae, instead
Of dropping to the ground, adhere to
the tongue, are swallowed, and then
attach themselves to the stomach's
mucous membrane by means of the
numerous hooks with which the differ
ent segments Of the body are provided,
something IN the following form:

is guarded by a valve, as well as puck
eFs down upon itself. resembling, a
tobacco pouch when tied. This makes
sort of trap door, that, with the
spirus Of these intruders, hinders for a
while their further journeyings.
When mature, or nearly so, they
loosen their hold, pass INTO the mites
tines, sometimes chnging thereto Tor
few days and finally pass out with the
exerement into the world. When at
taehed to the intestines is when the
horse manifests irritation and pain,
not when In the stomach. Except the
symptoms are quite violent, it is best
to let them have their own way about
the time they shall leave the horse; the
effect Of bot medicine is very doubtful

The first illustration gives a very
good idea how one of the larvae looks
under the microscope. Probably every
one that uses horses has noticed them
on the hairs Of the horses legs many
would call them small seeds: the
fringed end is the head 1t will be no
ticed that all the barbed-like hooks
point to the opposite end of the Larvae,
and by so doing aid In retaining. the
animal within the stomach of the horse.
The spiracles, or breathing pores,
are found in the posteriOr extremity,
Just the same as In the larvae of ether
bOt-fly species. The mouth is at the
end OF the head, but could not be
shown with complete side view
this is surrounded by four hooks,
which go to make up the mandibles, or
Jaws. At the seat of their attachment
to the horses stomach there appear to
be little pits or places where the storn-
ach's membranes have been eaten away
by these unfriendly despite their sci
entific name) animals. They have been
accused Of perfOrating the stomach.
but this point IS yet debatabIe among
the best authorities it would nat
urally appear more reasonable to at
tribute the LESSONS here observed to
post mOrtem changes, due to the action
OF the gastric juice, Just as chemists
often see In the human sbOmRchs sent
them Tor analysis
The most favorable place for these
animals Is at or near the pyIOric 0rif1ce
or outlet Of the stomach There are
many good anatomical reasons why this
should be SO, for the stomach here, Just

The boundary line between the
United States and Canada is not
imaginary" as most people suppose.
The fact is the line is distinctly marked
from Lake Michigan to Alaska by
cairns, iron pillars, earth mounds, and
timber clearings. There are 385 of
these marks between the Lake of the
Woods and the base of the Rocky
Mountains. The British placed one
post every two miles, and the United
States one between each British post.
The posts are Of cast-iron, and cast on
their faces are the words Convention
of London, Oct. 20, 1918. Where the
line crosses lakes, mountains of stones
have been built projecting eight feet
above high-water mark. In forests the
line is defined by telling trees for a
space a rod wide.

"Got a photograph of him? Well, [

reply.
At that moment a portrait of Moses

That's a picture of Moses, was the
reply.
well, if you could paint that old
fellow, who lived centuries ago, I don't
see why you can't paint my father, who
died only a few years ago.
The artist Immediately seized upon
his prey, so he said:
"WeI, come around here in q week
and III have your fathers portrait

The artist for the following seven
DAYS busted himself in constructing an
old man after his own ideas, and when
the customer arrived at the studio he
disclosed the result Of his ingenuity and

The President of the Republic of
Mexico has promulgated decree,
through the Minister of Justice and
Education, providing the necessary
regulations for a normal school for
women teachers in the City of Mexico.
The course of instruction Will extend
over four years, and the plan of study
is very thorough. Eighty of the pupils
may receive from the Government a
sufficient allowance for their mainten-
ance, in addition to the free instruc-
ton for all, as a reward for application
and talent. Those receiving this special
aid will be obliged by contract to teach
for three years in the Federal district,
or in the Territories of LEIPZIG or in
Lower California.

AN earthquake-proof church has just
been constructed at Manila, one of the
Philippine Islands. It is built of iron,
and when finished will be painted in
imitation of stone, and Will present an
external appearance similar to that of
many of the beautiful stone cathedrals
of Europe and America. The entire
framework is of wrought iron bolted
together in the frmest manner pos
sible, the futed columns and buttresses
being hollow. The walls are of double
plate lion, with a space of thirty inches
between the plates. The decorative
work, which is quite elaborate, is of
cast iron. The total weight Of iron in
the building is sixteen hundred tons,
or about one-fourth of the weight Of
material in the Eiffel Tower. The
total cost of the church viii be three
hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

JAMES SPARKS, of Dahlonega, Ga,
the ditch-wall1er on the lower section
of the hand-ditch, has been walking
this line daily for eleven years, a dis
tance of sixteen miles. At this rate he
has walked 416 miles per month, 4, 992
miles per year, or a total of 54912
miles, or nearly two and one-half times
the distance around the world. Mr.
Sparks is now. some seventy-odd years
old, and is still apparently as active as
a young man.

ONE of the saddest things in modern
literature is the recent quarrel between
AEessrs. Erckmann and Chatrian. the
French novelists, who, together, have
written some of the choicest works in
the whole realm of fiction. So close
had been their utilization and so re-
markabIe the resemblance in their
style that for years it was believed that
Erckmann- Chatriau was one man. For
years they Iabored together, and were
as congenial as brothers. Every one,
almost, has read Waterloo, Madame
Therese, and their other works full of
pathos and patriotism. Few authors
have had such a wide circulation for
their books, and in their declining
years it was expected that they would
walk hand in hand. But jealousy has
come between them. Each thinks the
credit for their success belongs to him
self, and now they are bitter enemies.
Literature viii know them no more. as
it is not likely that either alone can
produce anything like their joint works
