 Many people have been annoyed al finding their irons quite rusty aftef they have been put away a few days The way to prevent this happening Is before you put them away, to rub { little warm grease over them and theE wrap them up in brown paper. Wher you take them out to use. dip then into hot water that has had small piece of soda dissolved in 1t. rubbing and then putting them to heat in tht usual way.
 I find that hemstitching can be dont on the sewing machine in this wayi First. draw the number of threads des sired, then baste the edge of the hem in the centre of the drawn threads Now lengthen the stitch on the ma. chine and stitch exactly on the edgt of the hem, pulling the hastings out and pull the edge of the hem to tho bottom of the drawn thread. Hem. stitching done in this way can hardly be distinguished from hendwork.

come forth, under a great white oak, we will say, (for that is a favorite tree with these insects), and every one will climb up the trunk of that
 particular tree Reaching a leaf or twig that offers good foothold, the pupa humps it's back and awaits the final change. Within an hour the skin splits in the middle line of the thorax, and 20 minutes later the creamy white insect should be through it's struggles, and be peace fully drying it's wings and body wall.
 Within six weeks of the time of their emergence the females have ex- hausted their strength and died, af ter laying their 400 to 600 eggs. The males have not survived so long. The brood comes out of the ground with a surprising suddenness. They do about the same time. Six weeks la ter they are gone. Hear the chorus of thousands, as they beat time to- gether, making an uproar as of reap CTS at work in a field of grain, or the busy noises of machinery in great factory.
 Once it was believed that these in- sects killed trees by stinging them. Other early writers said: They eat all the foliag ge, leaving the trees bare" Both statements are false, as any one can prove by observation of his cicada is a large beak, fitted with a sucking tube, fine as a cambric nee dle. Its food is liquid-the juice of plants, principally the sap of trees obtained by piercing the tender bark of succulent twigs, not with the beak but with the unsheathed needle.
