worth His weight In Cold.

The maharajah of Travancore was.
on one occasion at least. worth his
weight in gold, for he was weighed
against pure mass of the king of
metals, and. after the scales were bal
anced, the mass of gold was distributed
in charity. This custom, called .'Tulab-
hara." is one of great antiquity and
is said to be traceable in Travancore to
the fourth century. 1t is not unknown
In other parts of India. though, of
course. gold is only used in the case
of wealthy persons. humber folk be-
ing content 10 weigh themselves against
spices or grain. On the occasion men
toned the maharaiah weighed little
over nine stone. The Brahmans, it is
said, wished to defer the ceremony in
the hope that tie maharaiah might
more nearly approach the weight of
his father. who did not undergo the
rite until forty-seven years old. when
he weighed fourteen and Nthree-quarter

A WONDERFUL INSECT.
Gas Companies Not Wanted Where
the Cucujo Flourishes.

Have you ever heard of the cucujo?
If you are one of those unfortunates
who are in the habit of grumbling at
gas bills you will wish that the place
was swarming with cucujos, so that
the gas companies might be circum-
vented. The cucujo is the FREELY of the
tropics. and it is the most brilliant of
the whole tribe of light giving insects
or animals. Thirty-eight of them yield
one candle power.
Photographs have been printed by
two minute exposure of bromide plates
to their Illumination. People in Cuba
confine them in paper lanterns for go
ing about the country at night or for
indoor lighting. Sometimes they at
tach one of the insects to each foot for
travelling in the dark to serve as a
guide to the path; also they use them
as ornaments for the dress and hair.
Cucujos are beetles beginning life as
grubs. Skipjacks or springtails they
are sometimes called because when
placed on their backs they jump over
with clicking sound.
A small species of the same family
is found in Florida and Texas. They
have two luminous spots on the thorax
and another on the abdomen. Damp
evenings are most favorable to the light
giving, the object of which is presuma-
bly, to attract a mate. The young lar
vac feed largely on snails, to which
their bite is poisonous. The luminous
organs are developed before the insects
leave the eggs.
Now, a theory formerly held was that
these firetiies stored up light in the
daytime for emission at night, as is
done by the so called luminous paint
of calcium sulphide. But it was found
that they shone as brightly as ever
after being confined for ten days in
darkness. Some that were carried
from Cuba to Havre in the pitch black
hold of vessel We're brilliant on their
arrival.
A more striking disproof, however
was afforded by batch of Larvae
