soon as the spring weather comes

Gle and seeks food material. Being
fond Of shelter it often collects with
others in houses. especially preced-
ing stormy weather, but il 1t has free
sngregs and egress it will 90 and come
during pissssnt weather. During its
foraging flights 1t frequents all kinds
OF garbage and feoal matter to which
1t may have access. The hirsute coat
ol its body and appendages become
more or less laden with not only the
food upon or In which it feeds, but
also laden with such other matter

Development: The eggs are de-
posted IN hog. COW, and horse manure
The latter seems to be preferable
Human excreta and decayed garbage
is also used by them. Each female
ny deposits about 120 eggs. They
are elongate, white. and hatSn w;thin

maggots as shown at (f) in figure l.
This maggot develops while It
worms its way feeding through de-
eaying material. (c) is the head end

the fly does not have fully developed

Il emerges from the material where it
molted the wings become inflated and
sufficiently strong for carrying the in

from egg to adult--ten.
One pound OF morse manure is
sufficient material for developing 1900
flies at one time. Under proper con-
ditions the same pound could be used
by several generations. An ordinary
load OF one ton OF manure is sufficient
for the development Of 24,000.000 fires
within the brief period Of ten days.
In this lati.ude we have about four
teen generations per summer One
pair OF flies beginning in the spring
could, therefore, be the progenitors OF

Since she was born and brought up
in this atmosphere, Lucy Tice natural
ly accepted borrowing as matter OF
course. If she wanted anything she
at once cast about to see who Of her
acquaintances had one and then
promptly went and borrowed 1t. Lucy
was so pretty that usually she was for
given. 1t was only In the natural or
der Of things then that she should
reach our for Sally Petty's beau when
her own supply OF beaux ran low.
Maybe there was little spite be-
hind 1t, too For Randolph Witt when
he had settled in their town had NOT
served his term Of paying court to
Lucy, as had every other young man.
1t was tacitly recognized that all the
boys must have a spell Of desperately
adoring Lucy before they permanently
bestowed their affections on other
girls
There was nothing startling about
Ranny Witt. He was rather lank and
pale and wcak-eyed. but he had de-
voted himself to Sally Petty ever since
he came TO town and that was sum
cient reason for discipline Also Sal
ly had rather prided herself on her
conquest. which was sufficient reason
for her taking down.
Lucy began It one evening when Sal
ly and Ranny Witt were seated decor
ously on Sally's front porch across the
way. Lucy futtered down to her own
gate in fluffy white gown and called
across prettily:
Sally" she cried. won't you let me
have Mr.. Witt just minute? can't
get the lamp put together. some

OF course RaRny fastened to the aid
Of beauty in distress, and Sally. fiat
tered by the implication that Lucy rec
ognized her property rights in him, let
him go willingly. When he came back
after an hour and a half he found it
rather difficult to explain to irate Sal
~, No, 1t hadn't taken him SO long to
fix the lamp but somehow he couldn't
get away without being rude.

never quite knew how it happened that
when she went home he went with
her. The next day everybody in town
knew that Lucy Tice had taken Ranny
Witt away from Sally Petty and the
town divided into two camps.

Lucy paraded her captive on the main
street. He seemed a willing enough

young man whom Lucy really liked

ly returned Ranny. She told him that
It was all mistake, and she didn't
care for him and Sally was really an
awfully nice girl.
So Ranny. being easily convinced,
trotted back quite resignedly to Sally
Petty, expecting to be received with
open arms. He got a terrible shock.

MANY MILLIONS
FOR LUXURIEs
Imports Show 1910 Was Prosperous
Year-4s Millions Went for
Diamonds.

Washington, Jan. THAT the year
1910 must have been reasonably
prosperous one in the United States,
is indicated by the figures of impor-
tation of the class of articles usually
termed 'luxuries," whose value reach
ed between 200 and 300 million dol.
lars. No more satisfactory barometer
of general business conditions is
found than the figures representing
the importation of articles purely or
chiefly luxuries, including diamonds
and other precious stones, laces, art
works, wines, tobacco and manufac-
lures thereof, and other articles of
this character.
This is illustrated by glance at the
yearly record of imports as
recorded by the bureau of statis-
tics of the department of commerce
preston, 1894 and 1895, for example,
the value of diamonds and other pre-
cious stones imported dropped-from
16 million dollars in 1893 to 5 IL mill
ion in 1894, Z IL million in 1895, and
about 6 "a million in 1896; gradually
moving upward again until 1899 and
1900 and reaching a total of 80 mill
ion in 1908, and AZ million in 1907.
In the fiscal year 1908, year of
business depression, the total fell to
16 "a million dollars, returning to
20 million in 1909 and As million in
the fiscal year 1910, while the figures
of the calendar year will not material
ly differ from those of the fiscal year.

Stars by DAYLIGHT.

1t is worthy of remark that but for
the brightness of the sky the stars
could be seen in daylight. Even as
matters stand some of the brighter of
them have been seen after sunrise by
explorers on high mountains, where
the air is very clear and the sky dark
blue. If we could go above the atmos-
phere the sky would appear perfectly
black and stars would be visible right
close up to the sun. Astronomers OBJ
serve bright stars in daytime by using
long focus telescopes, the dark tubes
OF which cut off the side light, and per-
