The Ichneumon Fly Makes Its Natural

The ichneumon fly of Ceylon is the
natural enemy of the spider. This insect
is green in color. and in form resembles
q wasp with marvelously thin waist.
It makes its nest of we'll worked clay
and then goes ON q hunting expedition.
Its victims are invariably spiders of va
rious kinds, but all are subject to the
same mode of treatment. A scientific
sting injects some poison, which effec-
tually paralyzes the luckless spider,
who is then carried off to the nest and
there fastened with dab Of moist clay.
Another and another victim is brought
to this chamber of horrors. Then the
president mother ichneumon fly proceeds
to deposit her eggs, one in the body Of
each spider, which can just move its
legs in vague, aimless manner, but
can offer no resistance.
This done, the fly returns to her work
rs a mason. She prepares more clay and
builds up the entrance to this CHASTITY
cell. Then she commences a new cell,
which she furnishes in like manner. and
then closes; then she adds yet another
cell, and so proceeds until her store of
eggs are all provided for, and her task
In life being accomplished she dies,

maggots come to life and find them.

In front Of Trinity church a stylishly
dressed young woman stepped from the
sidewalk directly in front of team of
heavy horses attached to q we'll loaded
truck. She was endeavoring to catch the
eye of cable car gripman and did not
see the rapidly moving truck bearing
down upon her. Passersby expected to
see her ground to earth, but one Of two
fashionably appearing young fellows
with slightly dudish proclivities rushed
to the curb, and lifting the woman by
the arms quickly swung her around and
landed her out of danger on the side
walk.
She, all unconscious Of her dangerous
predicament, turned on the young man
sharply with an indignant, "How dare
you, siri'' and looked as If she were
contemplating an assault on him with
her parasol.
The young fellow looked surprised,
and then, taking off his hat, bowed and,
with an Excuse me, madam, passed
ON with his friend.
She turned toward the street again
and for the first time observed the
truck, which now stood in her path.
The driver Of this calmly remarked:
THAT dude saved your life, lady. Why
don't you scratch his eyes out?"
The woman, for the first time realiz-
ing her narrow escape, hurried after the
rapidly disappearing youths, who had
nearly reached Rector street by that
time. Touching her rescuer's arm, she
quickly apologized for her rudeness and
thanked him for his timely act.
'Don't mention it, please. Tho pleas
ure is entirely mine, assure you, 4"
was the response. Two hats were dofc =,
and the blushing woman was left on tEt
sidewalk with q humiliating sense Of
her previous rudeness.
