pencil At the big end are the critters,
two clam shells that rotate from side TO
side and cut smooth. ronnd hole The
worm sometimes attains the length Of
ten inches.
Hundreds Of such worms attack the
exposed wood at the same time, and IN
a short time honeyeomb it. However
numerous they are, they never interfere
with one another, and no instance is
found where one borer has cut into or
crossed the boring of his neighbor,
though the partitions left between the
borings are sometimes no thicker than
a sheet of paper Another popularity is
that as the places of entrance are no
larger than pin heads and the worms re-
main and do their growing inside, the
wood may be almost entirely consumed
inside, yet the surface appears sound
and unaffected. Suddenly, without the
slightest warning, the wooden pile gives
way and its fellows follow in short or
der. and the wharf which appeared sub
stantial is wholly ruined.
To combat the teredo many expedients
have been resorted to- One is TO sheathe
the piling III copper. Another is 10 cover
the surface of tho wood with broad
headed tacks--the rust from which
spreads SO as to discourage the teredos
operations. Still another method is to
boil the wood in creosote under heavy
steam pressure, so that the creosote sat
urates the fbers of the wood.
All these methods are efficacious, and
the creosote process is used with perfect
success in wharf and trestle building
all along the gulf coast. Its cost is the
chief drawback, single stick Of creo-
sote timber costing sometimes as much
as $50 Mobile Register.

An amusing incident occurred while
a company of a certain battalion sta
toned in one of our garrison towns were
going through their musketry training
Owing to a strong wind blowing from
the right, the bullets kept falling to the
left of the target An old major, who
was in charge at the ranges, came over
to the color sergeant and inquired the
cause of the bad shooting. On being
told that there was too much wind
blowing from the right, causing the
shots to fall wide, he astonished the
sergeant by asking, Wouldn't it be a
good idea il the targets were moved
more to the left?" The color sergeant
barely restrained smile. London Tit
