I HORN 4, BORING EINsEcTs
CaterDillars That PePforate Antlers
In Africa and India.

In Africa and India.
A curious fact which for many years
has proved q. bone Of contention among
scientific men has Just been decided.
Sportsmen and naturalists whom hunting
In India and Africa have from time to
time had brought under their notice the
horns OF various species Of deer and buffalo
which have been more or less perforated
by insects- On careful examination it was
found that the little creatures which tun-
neled and made their home in the hard
fiber Of the horn were tho caterpillars or
laryB OF moth, belonging to the same
family aa the common and all too familiar
clothes moth.
From their diminutive size the moths
belonging to this family have received the
name of tlneidts, and 1t has been observed
Tint they are all more or less given to
pakinE thsir homes IN strsp g places dur.
inE tbs iarval stag5 81 their existence
The little larvae of our old enemy the
clothes moth, for instance, make for them
selves protective cylinders out of the cloth
they SO greedily dovour.
Sometimes these tubes present very
curious appearance owing to their having

different oolored materials used for tho
new portions Of the old case The larvn
Of another branch Of this family deck
themselves out with floral garments. the
calyx Of the flower Of the common mar
joram being a very popular dress while
others are Of mining dispositionand love
to excavato elaborate tunnels IN the leaves
of the honeysuckle.
Strange as these habits appear, 1t: is yet
more wonderful that o species Of these soft
bodied insects should be capable Of boring
into so hard a substance as the antlers OF
. deer During the 4b or so years that
thesehorn devouring larye have been un-
der observation the various stages OF their
existence have been carefully noted from
the laying Of the egg upon the horn by the
mother moth to the final appearance Of
her offspring as perfect male and female
insects.
The larye on emerging from the egg
bore down into the horn, and when they
have eaten their I'll and are ready for their
chrysalis sleep they tunnel up to the sur
face, 60 that they may have convenient
exit by which to make their escape when
tho pupal sleep Is over and they have be-
come perfect moths.
But, although 80 much of their life his
tory was known, there still remained one
problem unsolved This knotty question
was that no one knew for certain whether
these larvse attacked the horns and antlers
Of the buffalo and deer while the animals
were alive or only after death After many
years Of speculation and conflicting opin-
ionsi has at last been conclusively proved
that these insects do infest the horns OF
living quadrupeds, for the news has just
come to hand that both the lary;e and
chrysalis have been taken from the horns
within an hour of tho death of the animal
to which they belonged. Mail.

most charming lady and an accomplished

debut, that she was cast rs foil to her hus-
band. In the Judgment Of the manager
Dent knowledge Ct the marital relation

of romance. 1t was decided therefore to
have thu lady known as Marie Drofnah.
She Is q Philadelphia. Much Of her
childhood was passed In that city. Her
inspirations for the stage came when, as a
child she saw Cinderella performed at
the Walnut Street Theatre; and thence
forward in her home, and In q youthful

MANHOOD
Strong Bodies and Vigorous Nerves
Always Make Successful Men.
Dr.. Greene's Nervura Blood and Nerve REM
edy lnsures the Greatest Power, Strength
and Vigor.

No such thing as failure In life is
possible in perfect manhood. 1t is lack
of vital force weakness and inactivity
of body and mind that strews the world
with human wreckage. Weak blood fails
to nourish the nerves and muscles. A
noticeable failure Of strength ensues.
A feeling of exhaustion follows. which
the usual opportunities for rest do not
overcome. Sleeplessness is the next
symptom of decadence, intensifying
the nervous arrangement that exists.
The stomach becomes affected, as shown
IN nervous dyspepsia, and the sufferers
begin to despair of recovery.

The one true specific for diseases arising
from adebiltated nervous system is Paine's
celery compound, so generally prescribed
by physicians, 1t is probably the most re-
markable remedy that the scientific research
Of this country has produced. Prof. Edward

the world over as paine's celery compound,
positive cure for dyspepsia, bilousness,

vacancy may not be filled at present, though there is favorable mention of the name of Admiral Ramsay, retired, in that connection.
 Another loss to the department will occur tomorrow, when Lieutenant Gib- bon leaves to serve as one of Captain Barker'S officers on the Newark. This young officer has displayed the greatest energy in securing for the services of the navy the various naval military or ganizations of the States, and as an in- cident to that work he was obliged to put forth his best efforts to secure the formation of new organizations where none existed, and additional battalions in the States that already possessed a naval militia The great value of this work Is shown by the fact that many of the vessels of the auxiliary navy and most of the old monitors that have been commissioned for coast defense pur- poses are manned almost altogether by the naval militiamen.
