the downfall of the Roman republic
was the fact that the political life OF

circumstances. the public man who

President Roosevelt's speech at

ms matter. You know that believe
that the national government, in the
interests of the people, should assume
much the same supervision and con.
troll over the management of the In

exercises over the national banks. You
know furthermore that believe that
this supervision and control should be
exercised in a spirit of. rigid fairness
toward the corporations, exacting jus
tice from them on behalf of the people
but giving them justice in return.
No Warrant for ePssimism.
Recently have been reading the
work of the eminent Italian scholar
Ferrero on the history of the Roman
republic, when the life of the Roman
state had become that Of a complex
and luxurious industrial civilization.

between that civilization and our own

our being drawn into any pessimistic

PROTECTIVE RESEMBLANCE

Among Insects.

xAun1cry OF Cobor Rnd FORM Commoo
Among Insects.
An official OF the National museum
at Washington who has made many
trips abroad In the interest of that In
stitution states that In South Ameri-
can forests the butterflies and the birds
are equally brilliant In their colors. but
that the butterflies, being weaker. fall
a prey to the birds. One very bright
hued species Of butterfly. however. u
not disturbed by the birds on account
of the disagreeable odor that it emits-
Singularly enough, some other groups
OF butterflies, which resemble In color
the species just described, also escape
persecution by the birds, although they
emit no odor. It Is evident that the
similarity Of color deceives the birds,
and thus serves as a shield for the but
ter1ies. This sort OF mimicry Of coiox
and form, which naturalists call PRO
tective resemblance" Is not very un-
common among insects
Another form Of protective resem-
blance" which exhibitz much contrivt
ance and skill Is sometimes found
among birds. Some birds hide their
eggs among stones that resemble the
eggs in form and color. The little bot
