Insects that prefer to draw their en-
tire nutrition from wooden fabrics, fun,

desire to "wet their whistler by any-
thing Of q juicy nature. Any small,
silyery winged moth that Is seen fit

Of moths of similar size and appearance
that come from outdoors and have been
occupied as grubs in destroying green

pose that it is the clothes moth that
does the mischief. though by destroy
ing the moth we prevent the laying Of
innumerable eggs from which come the
consuming larvae. whose cutting jaws
would be actively and necessarily en-
ployed in mutilating Choice fabrics and
valuable furs. These cataSpillasis IRE
rarely seen by the housewife because
their first care on leaving the egg Is to
disguise or hide themselves.
The clothes moth proper has yellow

in consequence of its marked prefer
ence for furs 1t is known to science as

a Chee.e Roa.t.

Those who insist upon eating cheese
should take the p%recaution to cook it
thoroughly before eating. It is for this
q that some people who are I'M
able to eat raw cheese find themselves
able to eat toasted cheese without diff
f1culty. Toasting the cheese does not,
however, increase Its digestibility, but
rather the reverse. Its beneficial effect,
II any. is from the destruction OF the
virulent microbes which are present
and which are capable Of giving rise
to symptoms even more distressing
than those Of ordinary indigestion. The
best method Of dealing with cheese is
to give it to the pigs. as it is nothing
more or less than decayed milk, at only,

Of our fathers. They were a well

day. when Mr.. Clark dropped In at the
museum. as was his custom, MI. Bar

his friend into the private office and
said: Gaylord. l was about to send for

Superstition has not only prevented
mankind from attaining a superior en-
inence Of happiness, but what is more
deplorable, It has added in. a great de-
gree to an already extensive catalogue
Of earthly miseries. It is not by the
ignorant alone that superstitious be-

Samuel johnson was q firm believer in
ghosts and second sight. Josephus, the
great Jewish historian, relates that he
saw the extraordinary sight Of an evil
spirit being induced to leave the body
of an afflicted mortalsupon the applica-
ton Of Solomon's seal to the patients

his intellectual attachments and theo-
