Catching Butterflies by the Ton

Catching Butterflies by the Ton.
The caterpillars of certain kind OF
night butterfly called nuns" have
wrought enormous devastation during
the last few years in the fir woods of
Germany and other middle European
countries, where many thousands OF
acres have become a prey to the voraci-
Gus insect, necessitating the hurried
telling of many millions of cubic feet
of wood.
In combating this dangerous foe of
the forests excellent results have been
obtained in the course of the past year
in the city of Zittau, Saxony, where
electric lamps have been used as insect
traps
Huge searchlights of about forty am
peres each were erected. throwing their
enormous light beams on the parts
most frequently visited by insects of
the neighboring city forests. These
searchlights were found to exert an in
tense attraction.
The butterflies were then destroyed
by an uSter-fan-instar1ed in the
immediate proximity of each of the
searchlights. A piece of wire gauze
mesh was stretched out in front of the
discharging opening of the exhauster
and the butterflies on being thrown
against this would break their wings

Methods have recently been invented
for rolling out sheets of aluminium
even finer than those OF the ordinary
tin-foil. The specific weight of alu-
minum is about one-eighth that of tin
and its price at present is only half
that of the other metal. One OF the
alleged advantages of alumlnum-foil
as a substitute for tin-foil is that tin
salts are more or less poisonous,
whereas aluminium salts, at least In
small quantities, are practically harm
less. This suggests the use OF the
new product for wrapping sweetmeats.

ALEXANDER's ROMANCE.
Rapid and Steady Rise of a Young
Greeks Eorfunes


Alexander first appeared six years
ago, cheerfully calling his wares behind
Tush-cart laden with fruit. Once
when the lady of the house, vigorously
wedding in the garden. had declined to
purchase, he yet fingered.
"Hard-a work, hard-a work." he muir
INJURED with ingratiating sympathy.
"Moch hard-a work for lady"
"Oh, but 1 like it, said the lady,
laughing. Alexander looked incredu-
inus.
"Like-a work." he calculated: then,
SIZZLING brilliantly in comprehension.
"-Ah-you lof fiowers.''
Yes, | love flowers" she ag<eed.
''That makes the work pleasant
Often, after that, Alexander would
cry beamingly as he came down the
Path, Your flowers YER fine to-day"
Occasionally he would beg lone YER
leetle flower" for himself, tuck it jaunt-
lily into his hatband. and go on his way
dith a delightful air of childlike van
ity. Indeed, it was becoming; Alexan-
der was not a godlike Greek, but he
was handsome youth
After the second year the push-cart
vanished Alexander drove a horse, a
dropping, sad-faced beast. with ribs as
conspicuous as an umbrellas. The next
year there was still a cart, but it was
drawn by brisk and competent little
nag Sometimes when he received a
handful of flowers, Alexander divided
them: half went into his hat, half be-
son, and he opened little fruit store
down town; the next, his brother came
over to be his partner, and the store
was enlarged. Last summer Alexander
revisited Athens, and brought back a
bride. They had been betrothed since
they were children.
The lady of the flowers, purchasing
peaches, congratulated Alexander, who
glowed with pride and pleasure.
"And she is very pretty, of course :
said the lady, land does she speak any
English?"
"Aspasia Is YER pretty-yes; but she
rot speak English yet" he explained.
'She soon learn, but now she speak only
Greek"
''Then I'm afraid at first she will be
homesick in a strange land" said the
lady.
Alexander cast swift glance toward
tie back Of the store, and his customer
caught glimpse of girls figure
perched up on barrel. and two big
dark eyes fixed eagerly upon Alexander.
mo-" he declared, with joyous We
hemence, drawing himself up proudly
as he dropped the final peach into the
paper bag, "Aspasia not homesick; she
lof me YER moch.'
"And then, America is good coun-
Try" suggested the lady, smiling.
"Aspasia and me, we fin America a
YER good country" assented Alexander

MOTHER FOX KEEPS WATCH.
Animal Uses Every Means to Attract
Men Away from Her Den.


Hunters found den OF foxes in the
hills south Of Hagerstown and unearth-
ed five little ones about as large as
well grown cats, writes the Hagerstown
correspondent OF the Indianapolis
News. The mother fox escaped before
the hunters reached the den, which
was lined thickly with soft grass and
feathers. Instead Of running away she
kept within sight while the hunters
worked with their shovels.
She apparently understood what they
were doing. for she endeavored by
every means TO attract them away
from their work and toward herself.
She approached quite near and acted
as If lame and distressed. She would
lie down on her side and writhe along
the ground, utering whlnes and means.
Then she would limp off as IL very
lame, going very slowly and hnltinS
frequently.
The hunters were not to be drawn
away from the work in hand by such
tactics. and finally, after much digging
came upon the den where the five
pretty little fellows were shrinking.
They made no resistance and seemed
rather to like the handling and pettinS
they received. All of them were taken
to a farmhouse. where they are COLI
fined. They will not be released, but
will probably be painlessly dispatched.
Grown foxes do not make good neigh
bors in farming communities. Hunters
say 1t IS very rare for mother foxes
to leave all their young in one place
1t Is their cunning habit TO scatter the
family, one and two In widely separat-
ed retreats 1t Is said. too. that foxes
will not rob roosts close to their dens,
but will go miles away for food and
carefully hide their trails.

One Tariff Commission

One Tariff Commission Experiment.
We have little faith in the success
Of any movement TO revise the tariff
through the appointment Of non-par-
tisan or bipartisan tariff commission.
The argument is advanced that the
tariff is a business proposition and
without proper place In the realm of
partisan disputation.
Possibly there are q few people in
this country who will be able to re-
call that President Rutherford b.
Hayes had a similar dream. He APP
pointed a commission which was going
TO so beautifully simplify and so equlta-
bly, adjust the tariff that Congress
would adept its recommendations with
alacrity and breathe sigh of relief
that would sound like the voice of
many waters.
But, alas! how different is realiza-
ton from cipation-sometlmes.
Members of the House Of Represen-
tatives pointed to the Federal Consti-
tuition, which holds that branch of
Congress 10 be the place where all reve-
nue. measures shall originate, and de-
clared that they would not surrender
their constitutional powers TO any COM
mission created by the executive branch
OF the government.
The result was that the tariff bill
proposed by the Hayes commission was
a veritable thing of shreds and patches
when the House got through with 1t.
The Republican party will continue
to be the protective tariff party.
The Democratic party will continue
to be the exponent of tariff for reye-
nue. only.
