A CURIOUS HISTORY.
The Life of Sir William cavendish,
With Comment by Pepys.

'''s' . SSh'itShk Wy TSPJSs
Sir William Cavendish. known in
English history as the first Duke of
Newcastle. was commander of King
Charles LIS first royal army in his
contest with Cromwell. Sir Williams
second wife, the Duchess Margaret,
wrote life of her husband, in which
she depicted him as a most illustrious
prince and in every respect the pink
Of perfection.
The work was supposed to be entire
ly authentic and truthful. for Sir Will
liam himself assisted in its preparation.
1t was published early in 1867. and
many complimentary copies were sent
out, including one to the officials of st.
Johns college. Cambridge university.
In acknowledging its receipt they
wrote:
Your excellency's book will not only
survive our university. but hold date
even with time itself. and incontinent-
ly this age by reading your book will
lose its barbarity and rudeness. being
made tame by the elegance of your
style and manner
But old Samuel Pepys was not quite
so favorably impressed In his cele-
brated DIARY" under date of March

Six FolIies of Science.

intellectual giants as Bacon. Sir Rob

the philosophers stone. In the study
of astrology Lilly was for time even
pensioned by parliament.
Most of these "follies" conferred in.

EATING When Trampinu.

Experiments have shown that ami

starve as surely and almost as quickly
when fed on a one sided diet, even
though it be large in bulk. as when de-
prived of food altogether, and the same
thing holds true for men. Hunger of a
strength and vigor, provided it be what
might be termed general hunger. The
thing to be carefully guarded against

RESOURCEFUL MOTHS.
They Found a Way to Cross the Fruit
Growers Barriers


England's winter moth Is one of the
greatest pests with which the fruit
growers of that country have to con-
tend. 1t begins to appear in October,
and the female, whose wings are very
short and quite unadapted to fight.
deposits her eggs. These hatch out In
the spring. and the caterpillars soon
devour the young leaves. Heretofore
it has been comparatively easy to COM
bat the ravages of the pest. Seeing
that the female is unable to fly. fruit
growers place bands Of sticky sub.
stance round each tree. The female,
in climbing the trunk. comes to the
band and is held fast.
But wonderful thing has happened,
says the Manchester (EnglanO Guar
dian. In recent years the female moth
has been found from time to time above
the band, and how she got there was a
mystery, Finally, however, an ento-
mologist expert unveiled it. He saw
the male and female moths together
above the band on the tree-the male
evidently having just deposited the fe.

There appears to be little doubt. adds
the Guardian. that in this we have a
remarkable adaptation to circum.
stances. The female cannot fly. but the
male can. and 1t would seem that he
