CEYLON BUTTERFLIES.
A Travellers Visit to Their BreediI
Grounds.

A Travellers Visit to Their Breeding
Grounds.
SIT has always been great puzzle
to naturalists," says the Westminster
Budget, "where the Ceylon butterflies
go at certain time of year. You
see them flying over your house and
garden in thousands and tens of thou
sands in one direction, towards the
north. This goes on for six weeks or
two months, and then they all disap-
pear. Once, when travelling with my
sister in the north of the island, we
came to lonely station, and while
breakfast was being prepared we went
for walk in the jungle. When we
got about two hundred yards in we
heard a curious sound, like a soft, low,
continuous whistle. 1t is never over
safe to go too far into a jungle, and
strange sounds are apt to make you
hesitate for moment. l asked my
sister to stay behind, and crawled
slowly on in the direction whence the
sound proceeded, and there, in an
opening in the jungle, found myself
surrounded by one solid mass of
brown and yellow butterflies. They
were assembled by the hundreds and
thousands over large square, and
ten feet high from the ground. So
dense was this futtering mass of in
sects that you could have taken them
by armfuls had you been so minded.
The sound proceeded from the move
ment of the innumerable wings. No
doubt the jungle was their breeding
place"

GRETNA GREEN was commonly chosen
for place of marriage by English
runaway couples, as it was the first
village across the border on the west
coast road, and the laxity of Scottish
marriage laws allowed almost any
kind of ceremony.
THE Rarens of Burmah have their
marriages at a funeral feast. When a
villager dies his remains are tenn
porarily disposed of until one or more
marriages can be arranged, when they
are disinterred, a great feast made
and the funeral services properly per-
formed.
WHEN Chinese girl is married her
attendants are always the Oldest and
ugliest women to be found in the
neighborhood, who are paid to act as
foils to her beauty. 1t is said that
some exceptionally ugly old women
make their living by acting as profess
sional attendants at weddings.
In Sweden and Russia the crown is
the brides chief ornament. 1t is COM
monty of silver and often very becom-
ing. During the ceremony the groom
must place it on the head of the bride
with his own hands, and # by any
chance it should slip to one side OF
fall off the omen is regarded as ex.

Journalism in Siam.

Siamese journalism deserves gold
medal, says the Journalist. In July a
French fleet practically invested the
capital, Bangkok, and military force
took possession of valuable island,
defeating the Siamese garrison with
heavy loss. Ten days afterward the
leading Bangkok newspaper an
nounced:
''We are informed that several
French warships have been seen in the
neighborhood. and that on account of
the unhealthfulness of Blanketty
Blank island it is feared that none of
the troops stationed there will ever re-
turn with their lives.''
Such country ought to be gobbled
by the first European power that comes
along.

The Port Gibson reveille. [volume] (Port Gibson, Miss.) 1890-current, 1893-01-20

American farmers almost always
desire more land than they can work.
IL they do not make money they gem
orally think the reason is they have
not land enough, and often run in
debt for more. But the mortgage
runs on Increasingly while the land
produces only in the growing season.
So in the end the mortgage usually
wins, some ono else takes the farm,
and the old process is repeated with
new actors in the programme. This
fact oft repeated has set many farm
ers to thinking. Possibly they have
been mistaken in believing that more
land was the requisite condition Of
prosperity. Fewer acres and better
tilIage gives better promise Of sue
ccss.
Unless farm methods radically
change, the advocates Of the large
farm are right. II the small farm Is
only half titled lts product will not
meet the necessary expenses OF even
the most economical living. and the
man, be he farmer or engaged in 9TH
or business, whose expense regularly
exceed his income Is sure some time
TO fail. Temporary csuscs may post
pone failure, but the end Is certain.
L is entirely true that II the small
farmer grows oniy the crops which

lock. pupil OF the state normal school
at Carbondaie. Mr.. Scurlock at once
began the study of the sign language,
and I'm due time made himself familiar
with that dlfficult mode of communities
ton he put IL 20 o use little dreamed
Of By the superintendent or the trus-
tees. At the university he had been
drilled in military tactics By Lieut. C.

he conceived the idea one day Of form-
ing company from the pupils Of the In
stitution.
The hrst thing 70 be done was 10 IN
vent code of signs representing the
orders given in the marching, drill and
manual of arms, and 10 this be bent his
energies for some weeks, and at last
had It so fur perfected that he deemed
IL safe TO begin his experiment
1t was early In the spring of 1891 that
he collected thirty boys together and
told them his plans, and they at once
entered into the idea with all the eager
ness of youth.
Some of his signs are IS follows:
