many similar titles in the Natural
Histories. But where are the
antennae you spoke off,

who seemed to be getting unac-
|countably warm upon the subject;

as they are in the original insect.
and l presume that is sufficient"
We'll. WELL" I said. perhaps
you have-still l don't see them"
and l handed him the paper with
out additional remark, not wish
ing to ruffle his temper; but /
was much surprised at the turn
affairs had taken; his i'll humor
puzzled me-and, as for the draw
ing Of the beetle, there were posi-
lively no antennae visible, and
the whole did bear a very close
resem blance to the ordinary cuts
Of a death 's-head.
He received the paper very
peevishly, and was about to
crumple it, apparently to throw it
in the fire, when casual glance
at the design seemed suddenly to
rivet his attention. In an instant
his face grew violently red-in
another as excessively pale.
For some minutes he continued
to scrutinize the drawing infinitely
where he sat. At length he arose,
took candle from the table, and
proceeded to seat himself upon a
sea-chest in the furthest corner of
the room. Here again he made an
anxious examination of the pa
per; turning 1t in all directions.
He said nothing, however, and his
conduct greatly astonished me;
| yet l thought 1t prudent not to ex-
acerbate the growing moodiness Of
his temper by any comment. Pres
emily he took from his coat pocket
wallet, placed the paper care
fully in 1t, and deposited both in
a writing desk. which he locked.
He now grew more composed in
his demeanor, but his original air
of enthusiasm had quite disap-
peared. Yet he seemed not so
much sulky as distracted. AS the
evening wore away he became
more and more absorbed in rev.
erie, from which no sallies of
mine could arouse him. It had
been my intention to pass the
night at the hut. as had frequent
ly done before, but, seeing my host
in this mood, deemed 1t proper
to take leave. He did not press
me to remain, but, as I departed,
he shook my hand with even more
than his usual cordially.

what unsettled In intellect, had
contrived to instill this obstinacy
into Jupiter. with view to the
supervision and guardianship Of
the wanderer.
The winters In the latitude OF
Sullivan's Island are seldom very
severe, and In the fall of the year
1t Is a rare event indeed when q
fire is considered necessary. About
tn middle of October. 49,. there
occurred, however, day OF re-
markable chilliness. Just before
sunset scrambled my way
Through the evergreens to the hut
of my friend, whom 1 had not
visited for several weeks-my
residence being, at that time, in
charleston, distance of nine
miles from the island, while the
facilities of passage and re-pas-
sage were very far behind those
of the present day.
Upon reaching the hut Mapped,
as was my custom, and getting no
reply, sought for the key where |
knew II was secreted, unlocked
the door, and went In. A fine fire
was blazing upon the hearth. 1t
was a novelty, and by no means
an ungrateful one. I threw off
an overcoat, took an armchair by
the cracking logs, and waited pa
tiently the arrival of my hosts.
Soon after dark they arrived,
and gave me most cordial well
come. Jupiter, grinning from ear
to ear, hustled about to prepare
some marsh-hen for supper. Le-
grand was in one of his fits-how
else shall / term them?-of en-
thusiasm. He had found an I'M
known bivalve, forming a new
genus. and, more than that. he
had hunted down and secured,
with Jupiter's assistance, a scara-
baeus which he believed to be to-
tally new, but in respect to which
he wished to have my opinion on
the morrow.
And why not tonight" I asked
rubbing my hands over the blaze,
and wishing the whole tribe of
scarabaei at the devil.
"Ah. IL had only known you
were here" said Legrand, "but
it's SO long since I saw you: and
how could l foresee that you
would pay me a visit this very
night OF all others? AS was
coming home l met Lieutenant
c., from the fort, and, very
foolishly, I lent him the bug; so
it will be impossible for you to
see 1t until the morning. Stay
here tonight, and I will send Jup
down for 1t at sunrise. 1t is the
'loveliest thing in creation!"

Charges Guests Dollar For
Function; Boosts Red Cross

I LOS ANGELES, May 28.-Mil-
lions of dollars for the Red Cross
will result from the general adop-
ton by well-to-do women of the
United States of a unique plan
originated by Mrs. Avery McCar-
thy, prominent society leader Of
Los Angeles.
The aim of every hostess is to
make her guests enjoy themselves.
1t is an old truth that people en-
Joy the things they pay for more
than the things they get for moth
ing, reasoned Mrs. Mccarthy. Then
why not make her entertainments
more enjoyable and render a sub
stantial service to her country at
the same time?
The result was a recent func-
ton, given by Mr.. and Mrs. Nc
Carthy to which each of their one
hundred guests was required to
pay one dollar admission at the
door. All of the money collected
was turned over to the local chap
ter of the Red Cross.
There are SO many who feel
guilty at having a little amuse-
ment when they know that, the
nation is at war and thousands
are suffering" said Mrs. McCar-
thy. by my plan, even the wives
and sisters of soldiers can enjoy
themselves with an easy consci-
ence knowing that they are also
aidinp suffnrinp humanity
"Of course, all of the expenses
incident to such an affair would
be borne entirely by the hostess"

what? sunriSe?"
Nonsense! no!-the bug. 1t Is
of brilliant gold color-about
the size of large hickory-nut-
with two jet black spots near one
extremity of the back, and an
other, somewhat longer, at the
other. The antennae are"
''Dey amt no tin in him, Massa
VIII, l keep a tellin' on you," here
interrupted Jupiter; "de bug is a
goole-bug, solid, every bit of him.
inside and all, sep him wing
neber feel half so hebby a bug in
my life."
We'll. suppose it is, Jup," re-
piled Legrand, somewhat more
Earnestly, it seemed to me, than
the case demanded; lis that any
reason for your letting the birds
burn? The color"-here he turn
ed to me-'is really almost
enuogh to warrant Jupiter's idea.
You never saw the scales emit
but of this you cannot judge till
tomorrow. In the meantime | can
give you some idea of the shape"
Saying this. he seated himself
at small table, on which were a
pen and ink, but no paper. He
looked for some in drawer, but
found none.
"Never mind" he said, at
length this will answer" and he
drew from his waistcoat pocket q
scrap of what l took to be very
dirty foolscap, and made upon 1t
rough drawing with the pen.
While he did this, l retained my
seat by the fire. for l was still
chilly. When the design was COM
plete, he handed it to me without
rising.
AS / received 1t, a lound growl
was heard, succeeded by scratch
ing at the door. Jupiter opened
it, and large Newfoundland, be-
longing to Legrand, rushed in,
leaped upon my shoulders, and
loaded me with caresses; for had
shown him much attention during
previous visits. When his gam
bols were over, / looked at the
paper, and, to speak the truth,
found myself not a little puzzled
at what my friend had depicted.
WE'LL" l said, after contem-
plating 1t for some minutes, this
is a strange scarabaeus, l must
confess; new to me; never saw
anything like 1t before-uniess it
was a skull, or a death 's-head,
which it more neatly resembles
than anything else that has come
under my observation"
"A death 's-head!" echoed Le-
grand. "Oh-yes-well, it has
something of that appearance upon
paper, no doubt. The two upper
black spots look like eyes, Ell?
and the longer one at the bottom
like mouth--and then the shape
of the whole is oval"
Perhaps So" said 1; "but, Le-
grand, fear you are no artist.

of its personal appearance.
We'll, l don't know" said he, a
little nettled, II draw tolerably-
should do SO at least-have had
good masters, and flatter myself
that I am not quite blockhead."
But. my dear fellow, you are
joking, them" said I, this is q
very passable skull-indeed, l may
say that 1t is very excellent
skull, according to the vulgar no
tons about such specimens of
physiology-and your scarabaeus
must be the queerest scarabaeus
In the world IL 1t resembles it.
Why. we may get up very thrill
ing bit of superstition upon this
hint. / presume you will call the
bug scarabaeus caput hominis, or
something of that kind-there are

CHAPTER I.
Hermit Of sullivan's Island.

Hermit al bullivan's Island.
Many years ago, contracted an
Intimacy with q Mr.. William Le-
grand. He was of an ancient
Huguenot family, and had been
wealthy, but q series of misfor-
tunes had reduced him to want.
10 avoid the modification con-
sequent upon his disasters, he left
New Orleans, the city OF his fore
fathers, and took up his residence
ct Eullivan's Island, near Charles
ton, South Carolina.
This island Is very singular
one. 1t consists of little else than
the sea sand, and is about three
miles long. Its breadth at no
point exceeds q quarter of a mile.
1t Is separated from the mainland
by a scarcely perceptible creek,
oozing its way through a wilder
ness of reeds and slime, a favorite
resort of the marsh hen.
The vegetation, as might be sup
posed, Is scant, or at least dwarf
fish. No trees Of any magnitude
are to be sen. Near the western
extremity, where Fort Moultrie
stands, and where are some mis-
cradle frame buildings, tenanted.
during summer, by the fugitives
from Charleston dust and fever,
may be found, indeed, the bristly
palmetto; but the whole island,
with the exception of this western
point, and a line of hard, white
beach on the sea coast, is covered
with a dense underground of the
sweet myrtle, so much priced by
the horticultural of England. The
shrub here often attaiHs the
height OF Is or 20 feet, and forms
an almost impenetrable coppice,
burthening the air with its frag-
rance.
In the Utmost recesses of this
coppice, not far from the eastern
or more remote end of the island,
Legrand had built himself a small
hut. which he occupied when /
first, by mere accident, made his
acquaintance. This soon ripened
into friendship-for there was
much in the recluse to excite in
terest and esteem. / found him
well educated, with unusual power
of mind, but infected with mis-
anthropy, and subject to perverse
moods of alternate enthusiasm
and melancholy. He had with
him many books, but rarely en-
pioyed them. His chief amuse-
ments were cunning and fishing.
or sauntering along the beach and
through the myrtles, in quest of
shells or chronological speci-
mens-his collection of the latter
might have been envied by a
Swammerdamm.
In these excursions he was
usually accompanied by an old
negro. called Jupiter, who had
been manumitted before the re-
verses of the family, but who
