The tips Of those Of II eers have a
startling likeness to the Sead of the
deadly cobra. uplifted to strike The
back of the deaths head moth" bears
an image that sends n chill to the
heart of the observer
The Blending.
On the other hand. some of these
mimic forms and cOlOrs are so ex-
Cuisitely beautiful that they afford
suggestions to artists. This is espe-
cially true of the shawl butterfly" Of
India, shown in one of our illustra-
tiCns, which is said to have suggested
the pattern of the famous indian silk
shaWls.
Pure plays OF fancy on the part OF
nature seem to be such bizarre crea-
wings of the Indian moon moth and
the miniature human skulls into which
the seedpOds Of the snapdragOn are
shaped. Coming upon d group of these
one may imagine himself to nave in
vaded q cemetery of little gnOmes.
But even the most extraordinary
limitations that nature affords serve
only to prove more clearly the unity
that runs underneath all her works.
That animals should look like plants,
or plants like animals. strikes US as
exceedingly strange when the mimick-
ing forms belong to highly organized
scale we find that both of the two
great Kingdoms Of life begin to blend
animals growing on stems attached
TO the rocks, and plants moving about
and picking up their living in the
water. or drawing it from the air
alone. and flourishing in green luXur1-
ance without roots.

Most Of the people who use the eX-
preston regard a ''middleman' as an
animated example of lost motion, a
specimen of economic slack
Edward Bellamy declared advertising
to be an economic waste and he eX-
planned that the cost of advertising
was always counted in and added to
the value of the article, and was paid
for by the ultimate consumer He then
made his calculation that by eliminat-
ing advertising the cost of the article
TO the consumer would be much re-
duced.
To this argument we make no eXcep-
ton, but to the assumption that all
advertising is economic waste a de-
