matter of coincidence, as the work was

ever since. Prof. Sloane has given careful and
exhaustive study to the subject, especially
among the official archives of France and as a
result has incorporated much new and valuable
material in his work. Enough of the Life has
already appeared to show Prof Sloane's

Massac chusetts's Moth Pest.

After many years of endeavor to ascertain
how the gypsy moth obtained foothold in
New England the mystery seems to have beer
solved. The moths were brought TO this
country % years ago by Prof Trouvelot, q
Harvard University. He hoped to produce
by crossing the gypsy moth with the silk
worm hardy specimen Of silk spinning
worm which would thrive in temperate
climate.
Letters have been sent frequently to Prof
Trouvelot, who is now believed to be living
in Paris, bat he has not answered them, and
the State Board of Agriculture has been in
Ignorance as TO how the pest secured its free
dom. A few days ago Prof Forbush, the
ornithologist of the State Board, learned what
appeared to be the true version of the escape
of the moth.
Prof Trouvelot had several of the moths
under a tent or netting fastened to a tree for
cultivating purposes, and thought that they
were secure. In this supposition he erred,
and the error is likely to cost Massachusetts
perhaps S1,000,000. One night, during %
violent storm, the netting was torn from its
fastenings and the insects scattered on the
ground and adjacent trees and shrubbery i'll

Between the Rocky Mountains and the
Atlantic there dozen Counties that contain
more than 5000 square miles. One of these
is Aroostook, the northeastern County of
Maine, which has an area of $500 square
miles, but little less than that Of the whole of
Wales and AZ times that of the Republic of
AndOrra. Another is Dade County, Florida
in which are the Florida Everglades. This
has an area of $500 square miles, which is
about the same as that of Cherry County,
Nebraska. In the State of Minnesota we
find three Counties, Beltrami, Itasca, and st.
Louis, each of which covers more than 5000
square miles. st. Louis County contains the
city of Duluth, which has more than 80, 600
inhabitants. In Idaho we have two Counties,
Idaho and Bingham, which cover in area of
more than 10,0 900 square miles each. Pecos

Doubtless we riders all remember the delight
every bicycle takes in guiding the beginner
straight toward amy big bowlder that may he

that the only bowlder within half a mile. but

the bicycle likes better than big, sharp

In DAYS of TalIoN Dips.

In these days Of cheap and universal illu-
mination we almost forget the humble tallow
dips of our grandmothers, and the way they
were made, writes Alice Morse Earle in the
June LGdies' Home Journal Candle-making
was the great household event of the late
Autumn or early Winter, as soap-making
was of the Spring. Careful and laborious
preparations were made for this labor The
small wooden rods that had been laid up
above the great beams of the kitchen, or
thrust under the garret caves since the pre-
vious year, were brought downstairs to the
scene of the candle-dipping, and cotton
wicks that had previously been cut and
sometimes soaked in saltpetre were placed
three or four inches apart the entire length of
each rod. Usually eight or 10 wicks were
fastened to a rod Sometimes "cat- -tais,D
or flags, were used instead of wooden rods
Then long poles were placed in cool room,
supported on two straight-backed chairs, and
across these poles the be-wicked rods were
hung like the rounds of ladder. This work
was all done on the day previous to that ap-
pointed for the candle-dipping, and on the
following morning all in the household were
astir before dawn.

Cooting.
rUnrDcr'S U.seI.fg

The most Characteristic feature Of this kind
of cunning is the string of dories lying out to
sen, anchored about gunshot apart, and
usually having two men in each boat. These
lines are established at certain points along
the coast known TO be good stands. The
choice 'berths' - on such string would
generally be the first six from the shore,
which coveted places are the prizes which
each dory's crew strains to win in the early
morning races for positions; rs the best are
taken, the boats which arrive later must 90
further out, OF can form second line to the
south, etiquette forbidding any boat from
anchoring north of the first line The boats
take their places and put out wooden decOys
before daybreak, and stay out till about 10
O'Clock, when the birds stop flying, beginning
again in the afternoon and continuing till
sundown. There are thus two trips daily TO
the shooting line.
When there are but few cO0t flying, and
these are shy, n cry of 9 Nor'ard 2" runs along
the line when flock is coming. TO make the
men crouch down in the boats till the birds
are over their heads; but when shooting is
good, there Is no time or necessity for conceal
ment Nothing seems to check the continual
flight of the birds from the north over the
boats. They take little notice of the fire of
the first line, and give the second nearly
equal chance, only rising little higher in the
air. Then the men occupying the choice
berths keep their guns hot pouring lead into
the focks as fast as they can fire and load
Sometimes the whole line will fire nearly to-
gether, followed quickly by the second, the
smoke from frequent vOlleys hanging in the
still air so as nearly to hide the boats.
