Reasons can usually he found for ev-
cry new fashion, and the reason of the
dropping forward of the head and the
lowering of the eyes in connection with
the 1888 walk is assigned to the tilt
ing of many of the walking hats of the
day over the forehead. All last winter
the we'll dressed modish girl threw her
head back, her shoulders were erect,
and she took long, bold steps. 1t fol-
lowed quite naturally that she looked
straight ahead. But the coming in of
the tilted hats, pulled still further over
the face by -eils. has made this attitude
quite out of the question and brought
about completely new fashion of street
demeanor Once arrayed in one of the
new hats the girl that would be in lyle
must tip her head forward instead of
throwing it back Long steps it may
be seen at once, do not 60 well viii

THE MOSQUITO IN ACTION.
Some Interesting Facts About N Reg
ular, Though Troublesome,
Summer Visitor.

You can best observe the mosquito
in action by letting one settle undis-
turbed on the back Of your hand and
waiting while she fills herself with
your blood; you can easily watch her
doing so with pocket lens. Like the
old lady in "Pickwick," she is soon
Swelling visibly." She gorges herself
with blood. indeed, which she straight
way digests, assimilates and converts
into 800 eggs. But it, while she is suck
ing, you gently and unobtrusively
tighten the skin Of your hand by
elenching your fist hard, you will find
that she cannot any longer will draw
her mandibles; they are caught fast in
your flesh by their own harpoon-like
teeth, and there she must stop accord
ingly till you choose to release her. IL
you then kill her in the usual manner,
by Il smart slap of the hand, you will see
that she is literally full of blood, hav-
ing sucked good drop of it.
The humming sound itself by which
the mosquito announces her approach
ing visit is produced In two distinct
manners. The deeper notes which go
to make up her dronng song are due
TO the rapid vibration of the female in
sect's wings rs she flies; and these vi
brations are found by means Of siren
AN instrument which measures the
frequency of the waves in notes--to
amount TO about 5000 in minute. The
mosquitoes wings must therefore move
with this extraordinary rapidity, which
sufficiently accounts for the difficulty
we have in catching one. But the high
err and shriller notes of the complex
melody are due to special stimulating
organs situated like little drums ON the
opening of the air tubes; for the adult
mosquito breathes no longer by one or
two air entrances on the tail or back,
like the larva, but by number of
spiracles, as they are called, arranged
in rows along the sides of the body and
communicating with the network Of
internal air chambers.
The curious mosquito music thus
generated by the little drums serves
almost beyond doubt as means of Mt
tracing male mosquitoes, for IL In
known that the long hairs on the an
tennae Of the males vibrate sympa-
thetically in unison with the notes of
the tuning fork, within the range of
sounds emitted by the female. In other
words, hair and drums just answer to
one another. We may. therefore. rea-
sonably conclude that the antennae Of
the male are organs of hearing which
catch and respond to the buzzing music
she pours forth for her lovers ears.
whole swarm of gnats can be brought
down, indeed, by uttering the appropri-
ate note of the race. You can call them
somewhat as you can call male glow
worms by showing light which they
mistake for the female.-Strand Nigga
zine.
