On the banks of the Ell ~, curious

and women come there in the evening
and light fires, near which they care
fully spread spacious cloths. In few
minutes swarmS of May flies, those del
ieate little creatures whose carthly:lifc
lasts only for few hours, hover around
the fires, ;sid specify A,mErcds nay
thousahds +of thcnfaape burned and fan

After Il sufficient supply of flies has
been gathered in this way the fires arc
eXtinguishcd, and the cloths are care
fully raised from the ground and taken
home. On the following morning they
are placed in Il garden on a sunny spot,
the result being that the bodies of the
flies become thoroughly parchcd. The
flies areithen ready fer the market and
are sold for Il few cents n quart to
dealers in birds, who say that there is
no better food for nightingalcs, robins
and other fcatlicred pets. Only the
bodies arc used for this purpose, and
therefore before they Are sent to mar

an character. 1t is no uncommon
thing for Il son to turn his father, wien
too old for work; out Of doors and to
leave him to perish in the cold. The
superstition that the souls of the dead
can, . if they will, haunt the living
drives tlicir hardened natures to gain
by the exercise Of cruelty the promise
Of the dying that they will not return
to- earth.
AS death approaches the dying. per-
son is asked, "Will you come back or
will you not" If he replies that he
will, they pull 4 leather bag ovcr&his

they are lust going to- do things all
their lives, but never get them started.
