NATIVE BOY WALKING UP A COCOA PALM
lector, gives in the Atlanta Constitution
some interesting facts and illustrations re-
garding this occupation, from which are
CLEANED the following:
Wealthy collectors sometimes pay fabu-
lous sums for specimens valuable either be-
cause never before included in any collec-
tion or possessed by some rival collector.
The late Baron Rothschild paid $3.50 for
one butterfly found some years ago in
Sumatra and never since.
Tropical butterflies are the most costly.
In most parts of the United States all tho
collector needs TO do is 10 go out with his
net and his other material TO a field or
meadow where there is plenty of honey
laden flowers and make the best possible
use of his eyes and legs. All this is changed
when the collector finds himself in tropical
countries and in just the places where he
is most likely TO find the very rare things
that bring the big prices.
Meadows and pastures full of low flowers
are almost unknown there. In the forests
everything grows with the utmost luxuri-
BUSINESS, and in such paths as can be found
through the tanglc of fern and giant creep
ers the light is usually so shut out by the
dense growth overhead that butterflies are
eapbhiNW III ou,h paws. lAtSc
tropical thickets are so matted together
with creeping vines and huge air plants
and thorn bearing bashes that no one, how
ever eager to follow a butterfly, can by any
possibility make headway through them.
One method of capturing high flying
tropical butterflies is with the butterfly
gun. This is made with very small bore
and so as to bunch" the tiny load in one
spot. Either dust" shot as fine as fine
powder or water can be used in them.
There are many species much coveted by
the collector that are far too delicate to
shoot at all and yet never come near
enough to the ground to be taken by the
longest handled butterfly net. Such species
fly high over flower bearing trees, frequent
ly good hundred feet above the ground.
The quickest way into this tree top world
is By vegetable ropes, the long air roots Of
parasitic plants that grow on the upper
limbs of many of the mighty forest mon
archs.. But this is n dangerous proceeding.
The climber is likely 10 get half way up
tree, perhaps 20 feet from the ground, then

variety of ways. When made over
changeable silk, it is an ideal gown.
The inevitable navy blue serge con
tinues to be an important dress in ever,
wardrobe.
A lace trimmed costume is made OF
soft wool goods diagonally striped with
blue and red. The skirt is ornamented
with wide red ribbon run in and out and
finished off in looped knot on the right
side. The same ribbon is used for the
double belt confining the full bodice.
Each belt is fastened with a buckle.
The yoke and figaro vest with capelets
are all Of white guipure. A light straw
hat trimmed with red ribbon and black
aigrets sets off the costume.
Another stylish dress Of fawn colored
crepon has black satin bodice and
sleeves. Four capes of crepon, edged
with lace insertion, fall over the sleeve,
while one wide cape hangs around the
neck and is arranged with handsome
loops and ends Of ribbon.
Little capes, barely reaching beyond
the shoulders, are made of coarse net
and covered with frills bordered with
narrow white lace. Full ruches of
black silk muslin, or net edged on both
sides with the lace and tied with rib
bon in front, are worn without cape.
