shrubs. Since then Massachusetts has
suffered everything from the pest, now
Maine is infested. AS to how the
moths got to Maine, Miss Patch said
that the high winds of last july
brought many. Others came on the
steamers, still others with the trains
and electric cars. Light attracts
moths, and as it is at night that they
fly this means of transportation seems
quite feasible. Europe has known the
pest for one hundred and twenty five
years, and as yet has found no means
of getting rid of thu moth so easily and
surely rs that of securing the nests in
the winter and early spring and burn
ing them.

Prot. r. T. Hitchings Of Winslow
furnishes the following l:fe history
OF the broWn-tail moth:
The eggs are laid in clusters on the
food plant in August. and in from two
to three weeks they hatch into a little
caterpillar about one-eighth of an inch
long, covered with fine hairs. These
commence drawing the leaves together
by means of a little s;Iken thread
forming 0eir winter home No dam
age is done to the trees during that
year. but as soon as the warmth Of
spring starts the buds on the trees
these little caterpillars crawl from
their winter homes and begin to feed
upon the newly formed buds or leaves
of the trees. The growth of the cater
pillar is very rapid, and during the
process of growth they moult five
times. When they reach maturity, in
July. they crawl from the trees and
spin their CCcOons. on the bark of
trees, around fences or houses. or any
where where they can secrete them
selves The first Of August they hatch
into the perfect moth. The moths are
pure white. with the exception of the
bodies. which are dark brown, the fe-
male having a tuft of dark brown hair
at the end of the abdomen from which
the name 'brown-tail moth is de-
rived. The females begin to deposit
their eggs in clusters on the food plant
thus completing the cycle of the life
history. Turing the last three stages
of the life of the caterpillar the hairs
are poisonous.
Some seven or eight years ago these
moths were brought from Holland to
Snmerville, Mass. it is thought with

Everybody needs "toning up once in while.
When people feel well they usually forget and
neglect themselves. Nerves are over worked and
they gradually get into the run down. condition.
People who down. who feel weak and
tired most of the time usually make the mistake
of blaming their stomach or liver.
The stomach or liver may be acting badly, but
they have a reason for acting bady-the thing to
get at and cure is the reason.
Q times out of Io-the reason is weak nerves.
That is why Paine's Celery Compound is so
successful when the system needs toning up
There is nothing like it for this.

to them and builds them back to their healthy
