adorned by the colors that will char
acterize them during the winged stage
of their existence. over night their
bodies will have turned black, while
their eyes, their legs and the marginal
veins of their isinglass-Iike wings will
have become tinged orange-red.
Their life, extending for seventeen
or thirteen years underground, is en-
dured for preparation for but five or
six weeks Of gladstone life upon the
wing. By the middle of July all these
patriarchs of the insect family will
have fallen to the ground. But mean
time they will have attended indus
triously to the perpetuation of their
species, the female plowing the young
branches of trees with burrows into
which to plant the tiny eggs, from
which, during the coming summer,
countless billions of ant-like cicadas of
the new generation will emerge only
to burrow directly into the ground and
there await the trumpet call of the
next resurrection day, which for the
southern brood will occur in 1924 and
for the northern brood in 1928.
Schedules for the appearance of all
of our cicada broods have been pre-
pared for generations to come by
Charles Lester Marlatt, assistant chief
OF the United States bureau of en-
tomology, to whom l am indebted for
the preceding information concerning
these remarkable insects.
when the cicada appears in great
numbers it naturally causes consider
able alarm and arouses fears for the
safety of shade trees and orchards"
said Mr. Marlatt. THE actual dam
age, however, is usually slight. Ex-
cept in the case of newly planted or
chards, and even here, by vigorous
pruning back after the cicada has dis
appeared, much of the injury caused
by the egg punctures can be obviated.
Recent experience indicates that trees
thoroughly sprayed with Bordeaux
mixture of lime wash are apt to be
avoided by the cicada."

Good In Secret Societies.

During his visit to Boston Col Will
liam Jennings Bryan made brief ad-
dress to the members of Horace
Greeley lodge, knights of Pythias, in
which he said: when 1 Joined the
knights of Pythias, which was the
first fraternity l ever joined, l was
conscious of violating kind of i'm
piled promise to my wife. When she
was my sweetheart remarked to her
once that didn't belong to any secret
societies and so was not liable to go
away from home in the evening. I
did not say it very loud and was not
conscious that she paid any particular
attention to my statement, but when l
went home about daylight after join
ing the knights l found that it was one
of the most distinct recollections in
her mind. Now am a Mason, an Elk,
an Eagle, a Woodman, a Highlander
and many others. l have observed
that all these fraternities are built
upon words, phrases and teachings
which represent heart characteristics.
They teach US the things which bind
us together. l believe these fraterni-
ties are among the most potent infu-
ences in bringing mankind together"

these wingless insects build in many
localities little mud chimneys, like
those in the accompanying picture.
These are sometimes erected six or
eight inches above the surface of the
ground, and they are built Of soft pei
lets Of clay brought up from below and
pressed firmly into place. Just why
the insect resorts to this peculiar
architecture is still a mystery of sci
ence. Either from these chimneys or
from the fiat surface on the ground
the cicadas will all be ready, shortly
to emerge and take their first peep at
the sunlit scenes from which they hid
themselves back in 1894 or-if of the
southern brood-in 1898.
The exact date Of emergence from
the ground will be later in the north
than in the south. In high cold areas
it will appear later than in warm
regions of less elevation. But over
the great bulk of the territory in
volved the date Of emergence will be
during the last week in May, although
III oOA41O pal % VI AAAV AdA pOubh AANy
will appear perhaps a week earlier.
If you wish to behold one of the
most remarkable phenomena Of nature
visit some orchard or wooded area
where the northern cicadas were plen-
tiful in 1894, or where the southern
brood was abundant in 1898. Here
Just at sunset during each evening of
the week indicated institute a close
watch over a patch Of open soil.
Just after sunset you will see scores
of the brown wingless insects emerge
from their holes with a rush and
scramble for the nearest tree, bush,
weed, pole, stump or fence. II you
have selected particularly favored
locality the ground at your feet will
be literally alive with and hidden by
the running insects. BY nine o'clock
the bulk of the army will have come
out Of the ground, each fastening him
self to some selected object, prefer
ably a leaf or twig. Then within
about an hour after settling, each will
be seen by your lantern light neatly
to split his parchment-like shell down
the back from collar to waistband
Watch closely and you will behold,
emerging from the slit Of each shell,
what appears at first to be a creamy
white worm with pink eyes and heavy
black brows.
Like the moonfower petals bursting
upon the lattice, they will shoot out
until the tree covered by the myriad
insects will appear to be in bloom.
I'm the moonlight such tree looks
for all the world as though it were full
of beautiful white blossoms in various
stages of transformation" is the way
the phenomenon was once described
by Prof. G. V. Riley, late chief en-
Of the government.
Rise early next morning and you
will find the trees filled with the
empty shells and nearby you will see
the fully developed cicadas, now

And then l Strengthened on my

four short honks and two long ones.
The signal was followed instantly by
a crash. The foot bath had fallen
from it's SUPPORTS, and lay, quivering
and vibrating with horrid noises at
my feet. The next moment Mr.. Harbi-
son had thrown open the door and
leaped into the room.

Journey Locked in Storage Box
by Inspector.

Kansas City.-When the Golden
State Limited to Chicago pulled into
the Union depot recently, Hal" Coop
er, the Rock Island pilot, heard a
knocking proceeding from one Of the
storage boxes underneath a Pullman
car He opened the box and was as.
tonished to see the body of boy hud.
died up inside, with a broken water
bottle beside him.
The boy, who appeared to about 10
years old. told the pilot that he had
climbed into the box at El Paso, Tex,
and had intended to remain there for
ride of about fifty miles. At the next
stop, however, a train inspector shot
the bolts, fastening the lid Of the box,
and the boy remained prisoner TWEEN.

Luckily, at that moment Dal came
In. He pushed his way through the
crowd without a word. shut of the
lights, crashed through the pans and
slammed the shutters close, Then he
turned and addressed the rest.
"Of all the lunatics-l" he began,
only there was more to 1t than that.

to put an end TO this miserable sltua-
tion, and the entire household turns
out and sets to work TO frustrate the
whole scheme. You like TO stay here,
don't you, like chickens in a coop?
Where's Flannigan?"
Nobody understood DarB wrath then,
but it seems he meant to arrange the
plot himself. and when It was ripe,
and the hour nearly come, he intend
ed to wager that he could break the
quarantine, and to take any odds he
could get that he would free the en-
tire party in half an hour. AS for the
plan itself, It was idiotically simple;
we were perfectly delighted when we
heard It. 1t was so simple and yet so

Anne was furious. Jim was so much

WHITEWASH BRUSH IN SPAIN
It Is the Great LeveIer of Distinctions
Between the Rich and Poor
Color Denotes Class.

Ronda, Spain.-In Spain, where the
uins of Moorish towers are seen upon
the crests Of many hills as the "ex-
press" train crawls along at the rate
of Is or 20 miles an hour, the evi-
dences Of surviving Moorish influence
upon the people and customs OF Anda,
lusia make an interesting study. In
the city of Ronda it is plain that the
ideas of home building which the
Arabs brought irto the Iberian PENN
sula remain vital today.
The whitewash brush is the great
Ieveler Of distinctions between the rich
and the poor in Spain. The exteriors
Of home, great manor houses upon the
haciendas, huts of mountaineers cling

dicUiar hills, handsome homes of rich
merchants in the cities, and humble
tenements, are nearly all Of plaster A
few Of them are kalsomined in blue or

pure white. Ronda is white city with
