THE PLAIN UMBRELLA
HANDLE IS NO MORE
1t IS Now Highly Jeweled Member and Rivals in
Costlness Any Occupant of the jewel Box

The umbrella handle has entered the
ranks of the jewel box contingent, and
in beauty and costliness it is by no
means a member to b. despised-

many coiored enamels, rich In tortoise
shell or ivory carvings, adorned with
golden figures, or massive In chlseled
silver, the newest importations IN UNI
brella handles, together with spike and
tips. as they lie in their satn-hned
cases, are each in turn a creation OF art
and a thing of beauty. Cut steel and
crystal are likewise in high favor for
the head of the umbrella stick, while
for canes, plain fiat silver, wound In
curling bands and sinuous designs about
the handles, Is the vogue; though Lon
dor home OF the walking sticks and UNI
breIlas sends us THIS year as her
smartest Importation in canes one OF
sage-green wood, decorated only by
small silver snake, coiled a short way
below the bend, and capped by silver
knob.

Maggie came in one afternoon carry
ing a discarded fruit can, a sure sign
that she had brought something to me-
The can, on this particular day, held
about dozen caterpiliars, ranging in
length from am eighth of an inch to
two inches. They had variously marked
bodies, those of the smallest being black
with two rows OF. dull orange warts and
saddle-cloths of pale yellow, while 9TH
ers, "a little older grown" retained the
saddIe-cloths but had bright yellow
spots in place of the dull orange These
also showed faint bands of white and
yellow. The white became green in the
largest of the worms" and on the
black portions between these bands the
yellow was evenly distributed in the
form OF small disks.
That summer was spending in the
country, and had incidentally become
interested in caterpiIlars while study
ing the birds. j knew absolutely moth
ing OF insects, and at the small library
In the neighboring town / could gain
but little information on the subject So
| was obliged that season to learn what
i could from observation and it was
an experience big with pleasurable sur
prises and sore disappointment.
Maggie, the dearest of girl neighbors
was a willing assistant in my investi-
cations and ever on the outlook for
specimens Sometime before she had
told me about caterpillars who fed x

like bits of rag carpel, so when I'M
covered the can. I at once recognized
its inmates as the rag carpet worms

shaped prong and emitted most sick
ening odor. We discovered that each
and every one of the caterpillars had a
similar organ, and that it was not Ioath
TO use the same upon the slightest pro-
vocation.
When returned to the city I learned
that this pliable double horn is called
an osmaterium- The added information
that its use for defense was for me
superfluous, I had found this out for
myself and more: Shall 1 tell Won

out.
One day while was watching what
now know to have been the caterpil-
lars of the Black-swallowtai1 butterfly
(Papilio asetrias) and wondering about
their difference in color, I was sur
prised and delighted to see a toilet
made. One of the half-grown individ-
uals wriggled head first through its
skin as it split down the back. and
with a seeming kick, cast off the old
garment and then stood apparelled in
