It's attention almost entirely to pea,
trees, but as the pest increased in mum
bers, other trees were attacked.
The brown tail moth differs in it's life
history from the gypsy moth to con.
siderable extent. The female brown
tail, for example. is able to fly. freely
while the female gypsy moth, although
it has fully developed wings practically
never uses them.
The mating of the brown tail moths
takes place soon after the insects
emerge from the cocoons, early in July
Within a few hours afterward the eggs
are deposited, usually on the underside
of leaves near the tops of trees, but
sometimes on buildings or fences, and
even under the steps, making it diff
cult matter to locate the nests for the
purpose-Of destroying them.
As soon as the young are Matched,
they commence feeding ON the leaves
where they find themselves, when the
nests are inftrees. Little by little they
increase their feeding radius, but usual
~ return to their original home at night.
The brown tail is peculiar In the fact
that the caterpillars attain only half
their growth in one season, alternating
through the winter in silken webs of
their own construction. They begin
early to weave these webs, choosing the
ends IT twigs. -
: The interiors OF the webs are found
to coz sist Of q series of little chambers
In which are from six to 20 larvae. The
larvae, Or tiny caterpillars, go into win
ter quarters during September, and
"merge again in late March or early
April, according to the state Of the
season. The larva molts two or three
times in the fall aud four times in the
SPRING. When fully developed in June,
the caterplllars are an inch to an inch
and a half in length. "-
The habit which the brown tail has
Of going into winter quarters early each
season is distinct advantage to suf-
fering humanity, Tor it makes much
easier the work of determination. When
the. trees are barren of their foliage

and It becomes q comparatively simple
matter to cut OF ths twigs on which
they are found or to thrust torch into

The webs must be burned, says e. D..

Russian Peasants Did Not Understand
Polite Conductor


An Englishman travelling in Russia
furnishes the following incidents to a
London paper-an incident which he
personally witnessed and which he
says Shows better than volumes Of
description the customs and social
conditions of Russian peasants: "At
q railway station the train is on the
point of starting. AS usual in Russia,
the bell rings three times before de-
parture, to warn the passengers to
take their seats. At the first ring
the chief conductor, seeing on the
platform a group Of peasants standing
humbly and cautiously together, says
very politely to them: Gentlemen,
the first signal is given; please take
your places"
= One of the peasants, turning to his
comrades, says: "Dimitri, Ivan, Ste
ven, do you hear? The master tells
US to enter the train" "Oh, you stu
pid," says another. "Are you a gen.
tleman? You heard him say gentle
men, He invited the gentry" There
Is second ring OF the bell. The con-
ductor calls, hurriedly and angrily:
please, gentlemen, take your seats;
you hear the second signal"
The same peasant says to the
others: ut is for us. We must take
out seats. The train will start" You
asst" says his companion. do You
think you are called gentleman?
Were you ever gentleman" The
third ring Of the bell is heard The
conductor losing MS temper and
hustAng the peasants forward cries,
idiots! Pigs! Beasts! Do you hear
or not? Be off and take your seats!"
-"That is for u.s." say the peasants.
"Dimitri, Ivan, hurry up. We must
take our seats"

THE ART OF WASHING DISHES.

THE ART OF WASHING DISHES.
Any half taught girl that has been
hired to do odd jobs about the house
is supposed by the average housekeep-
n to be capable of washing dishes.
This supposition has caused much de-
struction Of fine china, for no one can
do any work worth doing properly
without thought. care and some sys-
tenn. Dishwashins requires two dish
;ans. one in which to wash the dishes
and the other for rinSing them. an
abundance of heavy linen towels, some
lighter ones for glasses. n good dish
mop and dishcloths. The dishcloth
should be OF strong linen. Stair crash
is excellent for this purpose. as it will
soon become soft enough to be flexible,
and is very durable. Make these cloths
about ten inches long, of narrow crash,
and hem them. to prevent edges from
fraying when they are put through the
laundry. {
If dishes are gathered UP in order
and properly scraped, it saves half the
trouble Of washing. Greasy and fishy
dishes ought to be scraped and wiped
OF with pieces of paper, which may be
burned up Immediately 1t takes only
little time to wipe away grease, but
it saves the presence OF this same
grease in the wishwater. where it
cincS to the pan and is likely to get
on dishes that are comparatively clean.
FiS,' :. is we'll to remember. always
infects dishclothS and towels, il the
dishes that have contained it are not
thoroughly wiped with paper before
being washed Knives should always
bc treated this way before they are
washed and secured. 1t is easier to
burn paper soiled with grease and fish
than it is to wash cloths used for the
same purpose.
Put the dishes in hot Suds. Use the
dishmob freely. and transfer them to
the other pan to be rinsed. Let this
second pan be very large and have
wooden draiuer fitteu in two inches
from the bottom. so that no boiling
water poured over the dishes will drain
off them. This is the hest and safest
way of draining. Wash pots. spiders
and kettles with an iron diShcloth.
Where food has adhered firmly to the
bottom of saucepan and it is difficult
to scrape it off. let the pan, filled with
soadsuds. stand on the back Of the
stove for a few moments. Wash pots
and kettles outside and inside. rubbing
off any potblack on the bottom with
piece of newspaper. When dishes and
kitchen utensils are washed in this way
disbcloths and dishtowels will not be-
come foul and require such continual
washing with soda and scaiding wa
ter as is usual.

Physicians Ideas That May Be Worth
Ecmemker;nu

A physician gives these common.
Sense health maxims:
Have no faith in the popular notion
that catarrhs and colds are due to
cold weather. Most often they are the
result OF impure air breathed in badly
ventilated. overheated dwellings,. Adj
rondaclI guides, northern trappers or
Klondike miners seldom have colds.
The inference is obvious.
Pay TO attention TO the lGec that
late suppcrs are Injurious. The most
vigorous and healthiest Of natives
have eaten their principal meal at the
close Of the days work. Let the
brutes. guided unerringly by instinct,
be our teachers. They eat heartily
before going to- sleep. In healthy per-
sons the stomach knows when it has
appetite. 1t has a voice Of its own.
Disregard those who say night air
Is poisonous and advise you to shut
tight the windows. The air without
Is infinitely purer than that within.
Absence of sunlight does not poison
It, else the millions who pass the night
under the stars would soon perish.
But they don't
Never be persuaded that bodily
strength depends upon eating much
flesh food. Meat yields fat, and fat
Is needed by the human system; but
olive oil, nut food, milk and butter
would answer the purpose just as
well.
Finally it is prudent to bear in mind
that alcoholic stimulants are not in
dispensable in cold climate; and
that missing meal often saves a
sick man a doctors bill and course
Of drugs.-New York Press.
