BUTTERFLIES.

Many specimens of moths and but
terfiies may be caught with the net
but the most perfect ones are procur-
ed by raising the caterpillar from
which they originate Raising cater
pillars is one of the most interesting
of pastimes, because it teaches us to
observe the natural growth and de
velOpment of moths and butterflies.
This is more profitable than the mere
act of capturing them. A great many
people despise the nasty green
worms of the garden In fact, they
are not worms at all but caterplllars,
worms being entirely dierent And
who could despise them if he knew
what beautiful creatures the caterpil-
lars will be transformed.
In raising caterpilars We must be-
gin with the egg. Some butterflies lay
their eggs around the stems of plants,
but generally they deposit them on the
under side of leaves. If you watch
closely you may sometimes discover
the female in the act of laying them
They are usually laid in clusters.
When you have found a cluster of
eggs put them on the top of box
filled with moist sand. In few days
the young caterpillars will appear.
They must be fed with the leaves Of
the plant on which they were found.
Most works upon butterflies give two
or three species of plants upon which
the same caterpillar may fed. If you
can find out into what kind Of butter
fly or moth your caterpillar Wlll be
transformed you can discover the DIFF
ferent plants that may be used as
food. This rule does not always apply,
however, for one caterpillar may eat
che food plant. while another one Of
that same species may refuse it.
In case you do not raise the cater
pillars from the eggs. but hunt for
the half or ful! grown ones the follow
ing facts should be remembered;
Caterpillars are found mostly en- the
leaves Of plants. They can be dis
covered by observing the leaves which
are eaten and the grass or ejectmenta
which is found on the ground close by
When caterpillars are large enough
they must be transferred to a breed
ing cage The thing most essential
in making a breeding cage is crate

must be kept in a cold place, either
exposed to the weather or kept in an
ice chest.
When. at the end Of the pupal state,
the butterfly is ready to emerge from
its chrysalis, the coverings part so
that the insect can escape When it
comes out the wings are very thin
and are folded over its back. The
butterfly then clngs to rock and re-
mains there for few hours tanning

ly injecting blood into them.
After it has developed it's organs
It flies away, nevermore to crawl on
the ground and to eat leaves, but to
sip the sweetness of the flowers and
tG hover around the highest trees, dar-
ing anyone to follow.

from the center Of each cluster. In
place Of two rosettes, the girdle finish
may be a single large rosette from
which falls a bunch of ribbon ends.

bG' nothing more ornamental IN the
way of sash for an evening frock can
be conceived than a shower sash with
rosebuds. Fancy a rose liberty satin
sash six inches wide which has a
folded girdle Where the girdle closes
at the back two rows stand upright to
hide the fastening. From these loops
below fall shower punches of rose
buds made of ribbon matching the
cash ribbon and from them, in turn,
hang clusters of ribbon streamers
carving in length; some of them
reach almost to the gown hem, while
on some of the shorter ends are lit
tie sprays of the ribbon rosebuds. That
sash would be the making of the
plainest kind of a gown.

SOME OF THE LATEST NOVELTIES

Odd candlesticks for dinner of
ceremony take the form of tall Corinth-
ian or Ionic columns of plaster. The
candle, usually white or cream color,
fits in the top of the pillar.
A handy cake pan is made with side
clasps which come off, allowing the
bottom to drop out. By this means
the cake is easily removed and always
without breaking.
Some smart lamp shades arc being
built of lowered cretonne. The shade
is made up of series Of panels OF
the cretOnne. 1t is necessary to study
the design of the goods CAREFUL be-
fore cutting it. in order to have the
panels consecutive; that is, to have
the floral wreath or spray continued
from one TO another
Sofa pillows are .ueing made up of
thin null or batiste over a foundation
Of pale pink or blue The white
goods is delicately embroidered in
white cotton. Many of these pillows
in the smaller sizes are cut in fancy
shapes, such as stars, hearts, etc. Inc
little heart-shaped articles are espe-
cially alluring Each shape is, of
course, embroidered in fitting design.
TO prevent cut hands there is a
cork extractor which is fastened to
the wall 1t holds the bottle and re-
moves the cork.

sent to market. This may be procur
ed at any market for a few cents The
next thing to do is to cover the crate
with wire netting, leaving a space
open at one of the corners to be used
as a door. This space must be large
pass through it. Put a few leaves OF
the plant on which you found the
caterpillar with it. In a small note
book write a short description of it,
including the date of its capture and
the food plant Always do this, for 1t
saves a great deal of confusion if you
have many specimens. 1t may also
be used to record the number of moults
and the time Of each.
Caterpilars while they are grow
times. This process is called moult-
ing. Mouiting generally takes place
at regular intervals. The caterpillar
grows unit its skin becomes too small.
They it stops feeding and remains
quiet for while The skin then
splits open and the caterpillar crawls
out of it. After moulting the new
skin is just as perfect as the old one
was. but the cooring may be a little
different Sometimes the part Of the
old skin that was the head remains
attached TO the caterpillar fer day
or two
After the caterpillar has finished
feeding it is ready to change into
pupa, or chry5alis The caterpillars
Of butterflies change into chrysallds
without spinning a cocoon, while the
caterpillars Of moths spin cocoon,
the chrysalis being inside Of it. Some
caterDillars Of butterflies attach them
selves TO a stone, branch OF some other
projecting object while others have

Then the caterpillar does not have
time to finish its feeding properly, and
is compelled to hibernate over winter.

These ribbon flowers are used in
variety of ways. There are the cor
sage punches of vlolets in faithful
imitation of natural bouquets, sprays
and close wreaths to fit about the de-
! collete cut Bouquets, clusters, trails,
rosettes are used as accents-that is,
to give the crowning touch of color
to the evening costume, or the pro-
per accent, as Monsieur Palette would
say. Rosettes having many petals
formed Of short loops of baby ribbon
with a shower of longer graduated
/ loops are thus used.
Some Of these rosettes have velvet

/ with trailing sprays of the tiny flow
ers. Dainty little bouquets Of pink
June baby roses made of satin RIBBON
have hanging from them many little
streamers of narrow ribbon, eacn

ribbon is for the sash. The summer

A LITTLE WHIZ.

Just eleven dollars even money was
what George Burnett and Thomas

ing to Magistrate Byers for little
whlz which led them into fight with
two railroad men last Saturday night.
They came before the magistrate this
morning and plead guilty to the charge
of assault and drunkenness.
Last Saturday night Burnett and

the Rio Grande brought up at
Hoesch's restaurant. In the restau
rant they used loud and obscene Ian

there two well known brakemen of the
Rio Grande. Messrs. Wilson and Lang,
who had just arrived ON their engines
from the specials that were running
Saturday afternoon and evening, came
in the Hoesch restaurant for
something to eat. Burnett and Ken
drick insisted that the two firemen go
out and get something to drink. This
they refused to do. and it angered
them. One word brought on another
and soon free fight was the result
between the four men.
The honors of the battle according
to the witnesses. were all on the side
of the firemen, although all the COM
