| From New England the moth spread
everywhere, so a few years ago the
Government began the Importation of
| the beetles and parasites which are the
| natural enemies Of this moth. These
have checked the spread of the moths
and restricted them to summer resorts,
| seashores and neighborhoods where peo-
pie congregate. A skin disease Is the
result.
The brown-tail moth spends its winter
quarters in silken nests. Hundreds OF
the young caterpillars. according to
Prof. l.. o. Howard, are found in each
nest. On warm summer nights when
hatched out the moths often fly in such
flocks that they are found miles away
as thick as snow. in winter.
Long Island, Maine, New England re-
sorts and the Jersey coast are as thick
with them as with mosquitoes. Happily
the brown-tail moth is easily controlled.
An arsenic spray does the work
Those who have visited mountain and
seashore in the past few summers are
ere now aware of the new disease. IL
has cost the public more money than
all of the destruction of trees and fruits
by this creature throughout the country.
Cause Internal Malady.
The hairs or spikes of the brown-tail
caterpillar are sharply barbed and brit
tie. As these touch the human skin
they penetrate the flesh, enter the pores,
break off and establish a severe inflam-
matory fiare-up. Even though this baby
creature fails to come in direct contact
with the skin. though the caterpillars
of the brown-tail moth are far away,
yet many persons become affected with
this strange rash.
The little light brittle hairs OF the
insect are blown here and there by the
calm zephyrs, especially when the cater
pillars shed their shells. and also at the
periods when they spin their cocoons.
Then the hairs break off and fioa: about, |
sooner or later to alight upon some ones |
skin. |
The rash is not the only result OF !
this Many of the victims actually fall |
sick with serious general symptoms !
Physicians often overlook the real /
cause Of the trouble. One death has
already been reported from the internal |
malady. The victim was at work de-
stroying the moths.
The barbed hairs of the moth are not /
only swallowed mechanically. but the
stomach juices set free a poison which
is contained In them. A saturated So
luton OF EPSON salts. weak ammonia.
milk of magnesia. and particularly
calamine lotion allay the irritation OF
the skin rash.

Fur Collar and Cuffs a Feature

ten, Fitch Fox, and Leopard
Furs Used.

Despite the fact that the summer
suits we're largely Of checked ma
terials, fashion leaders are show-
ing fall models which still display
the check. The difference in the
size of the check however is more
than merely noticeable, for where
the tiny pin check and fine weave
serge mas chosen for the summer
street suit, the fall costume is
made of soft but thick wool of d
larger check.
Fur collar and cuffs give a rich
and dreSSy effect to- the costume,
but it is well to make one obserpd-
tion in this detail. When garments
are made and decorated at home
strange mistakes are often made
in the combination of fur and ma
terial. Notice that the heavy wool.
for the street gown, is decorated
Nth a comparatively inexpensive,
or perhaps rough fur. Ermine,
real seal, and other fine furs should
always be reserved for certain ma
terialS, the palue of which is con-
SisteHt with the pdlue of the fur.
The plainness of the front of the
coat is to be commended, and the
single button broadening out to the
double-breasted effect may be COM
neHted on. This fpe-button A.
