uAvE FASTIDIOUS HABITS.
rven Precipitation Does Not Prevent
certain Insects from Making
/, Grand Final Toilet.

=. hos often been noticed that there
,rs no animals which are more dainty
and fastidious in their personal habits
nan insects. the extreme pains which
ho common housefly takes In attend.
inc TO its toilet being a good example
q this racial characteristic. The dis.
.averv has now been made that there
arc certain insects which have such a
respect for Mrs. Grundy, and are en-.
ao,yed with such an innate love of neat.
moss and order, that not even death, or
rather decapitation, can prevent them
from making one grand final toilet,
which is clearly designed TO give them
a sedate and respectable appearance
after death.
Dr. Balion, n skilled entomologist,
has discovered this remarkable fact,
sors the New York Herald. During
one of my recent horseback rides" he
savs, ~ frequently caught one of those
large flies which annoy cattle and
horses so much and promptly got rid
of II by crushing It's head. One day
instead of throwing the mutilated in.
sect away, placed 1t on the back of my
hand and indolently watched il. For
some seconds the insect remained mo-
tionless, but then. to my unbounded
surprise, it moved its front legs for
ward to the place where the head
should have been, and, after it had
rubbed them nervously together, ap
parently in anguish, IT began to brush
lis body and to smooth its wings with
It's hind legs. Under the gentle pres.
sure of these limbs the body gradually
became extended and the extremity
curved, while the wings gradually
changed their natural position and left
the upper part of the body exposed
Meanwhile the hind legs continued tc
brush each other from time to time.
Naturally watched this extraordin
ary sight with great interest, and, in
order to see the finale, / took the insec,
into my study, where it lived an entire
day, spending the time at the migrate
full task of making its own funeral
toilet"

 IA month before the appointed day Sarab's cousin over at C0rnertown died. She had been widow and left four children, one of whom was . cripple. There was nobody to look after them but Sarah. She adopted the whole four and calmly announced her Intention to pro vide for them. That settled the question of her marriage. Martin was very an- gry and declared he'd have no more wait- ing. She must choose between him and those children. Sarah said she must look after the children. She thought 1t was her duty, you see. So Martin lefs her."
 '.Yes, it wasn't very honorable. Mar. tin has bad temper. But Sarah thought he was quite right, and would not allow a word to be said against him m in he. Pres. P garrett flushed uneasiiy, but Mrs Aldrich did not look up from her work.
 That closed the first part of Sarah's love story. For the next 20 years her life was one of drudgery. She brought those children up, and did 1t we'll. She even got luxurieS for the sick one, though goodness knows how she man. aged 1t.
 "As for Martin, he sulked for year or two and then married Lida Banks. 1 believe he did 1t as much to spite Sarah as for any other reason, but he was very good to her. They lived in that little four roomed house down at the ether end of the farm. Lida was sickly woman, patient with her. She died 10 years ago.
 s.Meanwhile Sarah's children had grown up. Two of them were married, and the boy was out west, doing well. The little cripple still lived with her. Sarah had not grown prettier in her hard life. Her fguIe was stopped, her face was worn, and there were croW's.teet around her eyes. She had still to work very hard for the sick girl. Martin be- gan to go to see her again, and she took him back without . word of reproach." :" @"I'd have" began Margaret hotly, ! then checked herself. Mrs Aldrich went calmly on:-
 eyes it wss very :piritless of her, d oi everything, and Martin put his old ring back on her finger. That was just six years ago. Sarah could not zee her way clear to marry Martin as long as the in.

 Martin was much older and good
 deal more patient now. He was willing
 to wait. He has waited these six years.

 "When Martin told us he was going to them . wedding. How pleased they were! We are going to have all their friends here and we are helping Martin to fix up his little bouse for his bride a nicely as we can. Sarah is very poor, you know, and her 'setting out will be of rather ecanty description. I'm sure I don't know who we will have for bridesmaid and best man now. Martin was 90 pleased at the idea of having you" :"
 "Oh can't be bridesmaid still ?" cried Margaret quickly. "1'd like to be, Amy, I really would"
 "Oh, daresay Nr Miller won't mind, if don't,' said Margaret reckoning. s'We-we needn't have much to do with each other. It would be such pity to dissppoint Martin and Sarah. I'll do all I can to give them nice wedding. I think 1t is splendid"
