The Kinds of Insects.

The great majority of persons have no
idea of the numerous and singular forms
of insects. They are all called "bugs"
by most people, yet not one-tenth of
their number are really bugs. These
latter are classsd by themselves and are
called Hemiptera. Beetles are not bugs,
being totally different things, and form
what are known as the Coleoptera,
which means sheath wing, because of the
two large plates on the back that cover
the true wings, which consist OF thin
membrane. These covers are called
elytra. The butterflies and moths form
another one of these orders, being called
Lepidoptera, or scale-wing, on account
of the tiny scales with which the wings
are covered. No doubt many of the
readers of this article have noticed the
powdery substance which comes off but
terfly or moth on handling it. These are
the scales, and, should any reader possess
microscope and place the wing or
part of one under it, think he will be
repaid for his trouble. The "dragon
flies" and 'devil's needles" form the
order Neuroptera, which means vein
winged. SO it is with the flies and the
bees, wasps, and ants, the flies being
called Diptera, i. E., two-winged, and
the bees, wasps ana ants, Hymenoptera,
or membrane wing 1t will probably be
said by some that ants have no wings;
but this is only the case with what are
called neuters or workers, the male and
female being provided with wings. The
total number of different kinds of in
sects that are known at present is over
two hundred thousand, of which beetles
alone number one hundred and twenty
thousand-this being about twice as
many as all the other known animals
together. 1t is estimated that the actual
number of different kinds of insects in
the world is over one million. = Popular

NOVA SCOTIA WOMEN.

A Nova Scotia correspondent of the
Woman's Journal gives some interesting
facts concerning the municipal suffrage
already possessed by Nova Scotia women.
1t was granted in 1887. She says:
"Single women and widows, having $3.50
income or $500 personality, may vote for
county councils, mayor, aldermen, etc.
They are, however, not eligible for office,
nor can they sit on school boards or be
trustees. Married women have no rights,
not even as property holders and assessed
in their own names, unless their husbands
should chance not to possess any means
~ in fact, to be paupers-in which case,
if they swear to this fact, married women
may vote for their husbands Gnstead of
them. Thus far the municipal franchise
has worked we'll in country towns and
districts and among certain wards in the
city About two-thirds of our women
electors vote, and the list increases an
nually."

Suicide not Heroic.

Suicide, as an escape from the earthly
consequences of ones own msdeeds, is
much affected nowadays, and it must be
confessed that if escape is all that is de-
sired no surer expedient could be adopt
ed. But if one cares for character Oh
name, it is the least worthy of all expe-
dients.
When man loses his fortune which he
has hardly earned, necessity compels him
10 90 to work to earn another, or at least
he tries to keep himself out of the poor
house. But when he loses his character,
which is worth more than fortune, he
has more imperative motive for re-
earning what he foolishly parted from.
True it is easier to build up shattered
fortune than regain good name, but
the greater prize is worth the greater eff
fort.
Besides, to quit life at such time is
to repudiate every obligation imposed by
natural affection to parents, wife and
children, who have the right to demand
that no faint be put upon them. The
individual himself may escape by suicide.
But the children he has brought into the
world cannot He simply handicaps
them in the struggle for existence an
slips away, leaving them heritage of
shame. To live down wrong doing : .nd

away in the fulness Of time by the adj
vancing seasons style. The unmarried
daughters of the Princess of Wales are
among the few women left in the world
who do not wear diversified sleeves.
These girls must be distinguished in
some way from other girls, and their
mother wisely manages to keep them
always good deal behind the fashions;
and at present she makes a stand for
moderate sleeves for the Princesses.
Her own sleeves and those of the Duchess
of Fife are much larger this year than
last; and the most interpretive American
citizen, who cannot change the size of
his sleeves in any appreciable degree
from year to year, cannot fail to see that
now even the woman who scrubs his
office stairs no longer droops at the
shoulders and elbows, but puffily, in
calico, as others in organdies or silks,
asserts the bigness of sleeves. To dine
now in state at the board of your neigh
Dor means no longer vision of gleam-
ing white arms of the ladies at table; the
enveloping sleeves of full dress costumes,
too, have changed all that. - New York

Funeral Ceremonies Over a Crow.

One of the most unique pages in PHI
ny's "Natural History" is that which
tells of the funeral rites performed over
the remains of C. crow (raven) at Rome
during the reign of the Emperor Tiberius.
The crow, or raven, thus honored by
being 'funerally burnt" or cremated was
one of the brood Matched on the temple
of Castor. A shoemaker whose shop was
near by was frequently visited by the
bird, which soon learned to speak and
perform many odd tricks. The patriotic
follower of St. Crispin taught the bird to
fly to the top of the Rostra each morning
and hail the Emperor Tiberius in loud
voice and to proclaim Roman valor to
the astonished populaoe in the street
below. This was done regularly every
morning, the bird returning to the shoe
makers shop after performing the du-
ties of greeting the high and the low of
the empire. Finally the accomplished
bird was killed by a rival sandal maker
who was Jealous of the advertising his
competitors shop was getting through
the crows queer pranks. This act on the
part of the heartless wretch so enraged
the people of the Eternal City that they
drove the murderer" out of the empire,
and when he returned actually put him
to death! The bird received the highest
honors at its funeral, the body being
"placed upon litter carried upon the
shoulders of two stalwart Ethiopians,
preceded by piper, and was borne
to the funeral pyre covered with
garlands of every size and description"
After giving an account of this queer
ceremony, Pliny adds: "This happened
in city in which no such crowds had
ever escorted the funeral of any one out
of the whole number of its distinguished
men list. Louis Renublic.

WHY DO WOMEN WEAR vEILs2

A well-known Cleveland oculist says
that he thinks wells were first invented to
give men of his calling work to do.
"Half of my work can be traced directly
to the use of the tilmy things that women
put on their faces either to accentuate
beauty or else to hide defects" says he.
eff women were to content themselves
with plain, unfigured wells, if they must
wear them, like Othello, my occupation
would be gone. But the little dots on
them, through which women lock, help
to make weak eyes; given weak eyes, we
oculist are kept busy. Women go to
physicians and complain that they con-
tinually suffer from headache, particu-
larly after walk. If the physician in
quires he usually discovers that such
women wear figured wells, and the head
aches come from misuse of the eyes,
attempting to see things partly hidden
by dot in the VEIL The strongest map
with perfect eyes could not stand it long,
and it is no wonder that women get
headaches through the straining of the
eyes. ."-lCleveland Sun and Voice.

ROUTINE OF PARTISAN LADIES.

Partisan ladies who are no longer In
their freshest bloom are seldom seen in
the morning. They breakfast in their
rooms, served by their femme de
chambre. Their war paint is not well
on before or o'clock in the afternoon,
when they go to their miliner's or dress
makers. From there they take turn
in the Bois, drop in to some ''5 o'clock"
and then go to dinner. Afterward, ac-
cording to the day Of the week, they re-
ceive in boxes at the Francais or the
opera, and then run to drawing room
concert or a reception. n.-[San Francisco

PROGRESS OF SOUTH AMERICAN WOMEN.

A lvceum for women in Mexico was
founded in 1878, which takes up sub
iects that are considered essential to the
proper training of women. In the school
of arts there are many busy students,
from the young girl to the women OF
mature years, all of whom receive free
instruction in such branches as printing,
bookbinding, sewing, fancy work, knit
ting; trimmings, fringes, making cords
and tassels. Piano and vocal music ars
also taught. The Mexicans bid fair to
rival the United States as well as Europe
in educating their daughters for that
higher sphere for which nature intended
them.
In Nicaragua the education of girls
has become quite popular, and in the
city of Granada there is college Where
several hundred young ladies are en-
rolled.
In Brazil boys and girls are now being
educated together in the higher grade
schools. When one can easily date back
to a period in that country where girls
were kept under lock and key, "where
they would remain until husbands had
been obtained for them, such an attempt
at co-education nieans the beginning of
a new life for women.
Chile has the Institute Nacional, where
there are among the many male students
two or more women studying law. This,
however, is looked on with more dis
favor than if they had taken up the study
of medicine. In the Colegio Norte
Americana over $50 girls belonging to
the higher classes of society are study
ing the higher branches.
In the Argentine Republic La Senorita
Grierson has lately obtained her diploma
as an M. d. Sne is the first young lady
to lay aside all ancient traditions and
endeavor to win an honorable title for
herself.

The unobservant average man has at
