grossly exaggerated his strength to Senator Plat,
and that the latter has been equally prodgal in his
Hedging TO Mr. Willis OF prospective delegates.
The early County Convention will clear the at

How Flies Hang On.

In our youth we were taught that
flies adhered to the ceiling or to the.
window pane because their feet were
provided with suckers from which they
had. the power of exhausting the air..
This was disproved by the fact that a
fly could run up the side of an ex-
hausted glass receiver when a vacuum
under his feet would do him no good,
even ii he had the power of creating it..
and by the further fact that micro
scopic examination showed that hiss
feet were not provided with suckers.
but with multitudes of hairs, from.
which exuded fluid in minute drops.
1t was then suggested that this fluid.
was viscous, or gummy, so that the fly
adhered by sort of mucilage. This,
too, was disproved, as it was shown.
that the fluid possessed no adhesive.
