A FOE TO THE CATERPILLAR,
Insect That saps the Life Dat of the
Pesky Worm.

Pesky Worm.
A report from Philadelphia has it
that an insect foe to the caterpillar
has just been discovered in that city.
The said remarkable insect does not
use sharp claws, like some beetles,
nor poison, lie spiders. Fastened by
a flexible joint to the lower part of
the body is lance, and with its
deadly weapon the bug does rapid
execution. 1t crecps on its prey
quietly, then leans sudden with rush.
Raising itself when near the victim,
it let's the lance drop forward, then
leaps upon the poor, fuzzy thing and
drives the sharp point home. The
caterpillar squirms and twists itself
about, but the lance holds, and there
is no escape. The bug does not let
go until 1T has satisfied itself. Grad
ually the form of the caterpillar
shrinks, and when the little enemy
withdraws the lance and backs away
there is only the skin Of the worm
left.
The bug is about three-eights of
an inch long and oval in shape. 1t
has SIX legs and two delicate feelers.
The back is curiously marked,
the front part being light brown,
traced caricature of a japanese face.
Underneath this insect is colored light
green and light yellow.
