"Will you have oysters?" asked the
man, glancing over the bill of fare.

as che tried in vain to touch her toes to
the floor. "And. John. l want a has.

How Frozen Insects Revive.

Experiments in reviving frozen in
sects, by Mr.. S. F. Aaron, show some
surprising results. A large cecropia
moth. frozen in the center of a snow
hall until it was perfectly brittle, re-
vived in 30 seconds when held near a
stove. Several newly Matched 10 moths
revived in a similar manner after being
frozen stiff and then thawed out. SINH
lar experiments with ants, butterflies
and house flies gave the same results.
But Mr.. Aaron noticed that recently
Matched insects resist cold better than
older ones.
