Aairs upon Horses' Cips.

The fine chairs about the mouth of
the horse are organs of touch OF ex-
treme delicacy. They serve to a GER
tain extent the same purpose as our
finger ends, the whiskers of the cat or
the trunk Of the elephant. Sensitive
ness is due to specially developed enc
ings of nerves in the skin. which are
continually sending messages to the
brain. TIE lip hairs Of the horse first
receive the stimulus. which is commu-
nicated to the end organs and so pass
es on to the brain. They come into
play when the horse samples new
article of food. He first smells 1t and.
having so far satisfied himself. touch
es it delicately with those sensitive
hairs. The upper lip moves softly in
quick sympathy and confirms the opin-
ion suggested by the hairs. The
tongue judges finally as to the fitness
Of the food. When the horse wishes
to drink these hairs assure him that
the water is free from foreign matter
on the surface, for he drinks from the
surface only. They detect the smallest
particle Of dirt and guide him to the
purest place.

The most serious colliery fire ever
known in Britain was undoubtedly
that which broke out at the Tawd val
ley mine, near Preston, in 1872: Thou
sands Of pounds were spent in trying to
get the flames under control. but they
overcame everything and consumed
some millions of tons of coal. A wall
ten feet in thickness was built round
the affected parts, but the heat cracked
the masonry and brought it down as
fast as it was rebuilt. However. in
1897 the river Tawd overfowed it's
banks and went pouring down into the
mine. No fire could Withstand such an
immense volume of water hurled upon

for 500 yards. they were quenched

others sit around him and listen. When
they are all seated he begins to utter
series Of sounds. When be stops

with his paw. and the others cry out
until he makes third signal. upon

Six EoIljes of Science.

The six follies Of science are the
squaring of the circle. perpetual mo-

Of life, magic and astrology.
In all ages men of undoubted ability
have toiled early and late to unravel
the mysteries supposed to be connect
ed with these fascinating problems. 1t
is not always remembered that such
intellectual giants as Bacon. Sir Rob-
ert Boyle and Sir Isaac Newton sought
the philosophers stone. In the study
of astrology Lilly was for time even
pensioned by parliament.
Most of these ''follies' conferred in.

Moths and Butterflies
by CHARLES RUSSELL GREGoR

by CHARLES RUSSELL GREGOR
hURING the months of July and Au-
- gust I caught most of my butter
flies with a net in the garden. Among
them were 16 varieties of large but
terhies.
About the same time 1 found the
larvae of a number of moths and but
terfiies on the trees about us.
Some of the moths found were the
cecropia, polyphemus, bullseye. prone
thea and several others whose names
1 do not know.
During September the larvae wove
their cocoons. ! brought the cocoons
home in October and they all came out
the last of May, except two, and 1 had
in all 10 cocoons and chrysalids.
One day last May as L entered my
room l saw beautiful cecropia moth
clinginG to the curtain. l was espe-
cially delighted with this moth because
I had raised it from its larva. 1t is
the largest moth in the United States
This moth measures eight inches across
and is a rich dark brown color. The
wings are edged with light brown and
rose and cream markings. The body
is rose color with cream colored stripes.
A written description gives but a poor
idea of this beautiful moth / now
have between 20 and so different speci-
mems of moths and butterflies.

the front edge begins where the wings
join. The~in should be allowed to
remain in this position until perfectly
dry.
When dried it is customary to place
the insects in cabinets or exhibition
cases. These should be bought, as
they must be dust and insect proof,
as far as possible. Right here let me
say that nothing discourages a col
lector more than to have certain pests
get into his collection. These museum
pests manage to get into the tightest
boxes and proceed to use your choice
insects for a general Matching ground,
the larvae eating the bodies of the
specimens and completely spelling
them. Many preyentives are used,
such as cups of benzine placed in the
cabinet, camphor or naphtha cones,
etc. but none are entirely satisfactory.
l once read of preventive which 1
have used great deal since. The
dried insects are dipped in solution
of 25 grains of corrosive sublimate in
two ounces spirits of wine and are al
lowed to dry before being replaced
in the cabinet. l can not say whether
this is sure preventive, but DO not
remember ever having a specimen
spoiled after having been SO treated.

me. A few days later, while near the
border of the Yellowstone national
park, I found the skeletons OF several
elk and brought home some of the
great antlers. After having camped in
the park for a week we started out
again, heading for the Teton range. 1
found on deserted spot the skull of
buffalo. which I also brought home.
And while hunting through a lot of
rocks / came across the remains of an
animal which my father thought was a
bear, probably of the extinct species.
Having no other instruments, l could
only carry away some of the ossihed
teeth. l collected all the wild flowers
of the Rocky mountains, pressed them
and preserved them in an album.

My Wild Flower Collection
BY FREDA DAVIDSON

EVERY morning with my big paste
l. board covered book, a pair of scis-
sors and several sheets of paper I'd
start out to find the pretty wild flowers
in which our place abounds. As soon
as / found a flower I'd lay it between
two pieces of paper in the book. Later
these papers are thrown away and the
flower is held in place by small pieces
of adhesive plaster which are pasted
over the stem. AS soon as [ reach home
l place the book under big trunk.
This presses the flowers.
Among the flowers l gathered in May
were dogwood, white and blue violets,
columbine, dandelion and orange field
daisy.
A few of bright, June flowers that
found their way into my book are the
wild June rose, buttercup, jack in the
pulpit daisy. blue grass and clover. A
sure way of finding out whether any
one likes butter is to hold a buttercup
under his chin, and IL the chin looks
very yellow he is very fond of it.

the flower the date when / picked 1T.
The tiger lily is big orange colored

best flowers and placed them in heavy

the magazine / left there until all the
sap was pressed out; then l placed
them in heavy book. When all
flowers were almost dry, but not brit

waxed the flowers because it kept
their color. / used refined paraffine
to wax them. never used hot paraffine
only warmed just so it would pour
easily. There are several different ways
in which I waxed my specimens, as
different shaped flowers call for differ
ent treatment.
One of these ways was by dipping
the specimen into the paraffine and then
laying it on a board while / arranged
the flower in position. The other way
was by pouring the wax over the speci-
men and spreading it over evenly, then
arranging the flower in position. These
ways are most commonly used. The
arranging of flowers when either
method is used has to be done before
the paraffine hardens.
1 keep my specimens by mounting
them on heavy white drawing paper. I
fasten my specimens on the paper with
little narrow strips of plaster. | paint

Collecting Wild Flowers
BY AMELIA LAWRENCE

TO gather wild flowers without in
juring them / furnished several old
magazines with tabs. / cut slips Of
paper the same size; these 1 pasted
on the upper left hand corner OF the
page, so that they extended about one
inch over the edge Of the page. L
used red crayon pencil to write on the
tabs the name OF the flower which was
pressing between those pages on which
the tabs were fastened. These old mag
azines came in very handy when |
had a flower which was very fragile
or rare. When / found a plant which
was fragile / carefully picked it, and
after arranging IL in the position
wanted / placed ii in the magazine.
and after marking the tab accordingly
closed the book and placed an elastic
band around ii so that the flowers
would not be disturbed while / was
carrying the magazine around with me.
With these little tabs as guides / was
careful not TO open the book near any
marked tabs, as l would probably dis
turb the specimen. Such flowers as the
violet and cOwslip are usually found in
abundance, so l picked a medium sized
bunch OF each and tied them with
string. These i placed in a basket with
wet paper in the bottom so. they would
