Fires Started by Moths.

Moths and flames are universally
connected, yet few people suspect
that danger could arise therefrom-
The insects are of such frail struc-
ture that generally they get Destroy
ed before it is possible for them
to inf1ict injury, and it is hardly
creditable that the wings would ig-
mite and retain the flames long
enough to enable the moth to fiy to
its surroundings.
That, however, has occurred. The
moth was a very large one and its
wings must have been very dry, so
that when it f1oundeTed through the
flame it set fire to one wing and
darted out to a curtain nearby which
at once fared up. It is possible that
many summer evening fires in the
country could be attributed to a
source of this kind It is notorious
that mysterious fires often arise at
sunset in the hot months.-Str&8a
