number OF traps TO set about his estate batted
with raw meat The latest person TO have seen the
panther is John Foley, who says his French poodle
was nearly killed by 1t. The panther tore out nearly

INSECT DESIGNS A FAD

Brilliant winged insects are the fad. at
present. In china decoration and the idea
of reproducing these graceful denizens of
the air on porcelain is a pleasing yaria ton
from the flower. figure and symbolic type of
decartion that has held sway SO long a
time.
Not only brilliant and gauZy winged in
sects appear in these designs, but also such
little denizens of the sword and the trees
as grasshoppers and katydids.
A small group of katydids on a slender
tree branch is the design OF vase with
shadow background of olive-ereen.
One of the prettiest designs shows a bar
of music. on which the notes of the familiar
cry. ''katydid! Katydidnt," appear the
words being written beneath the staff. A
pair of katydids sitting on a twic are ap

Grasshoppers are utilized in some unique
decorations for milk cups and bread and
