WHAT MAKES ORANGE RUSTY
spider-Like Insect crawls Over Fruit
and Punctures Outer
Skin. -; -.

The juiciest and sweetest oranges
are the rusty ones.
An exceedingly tiny spfder-iike in
sect is responsible. While :; the: fruit
is ripening on the tree%it crawls over
the orange, and punctures the outer
skin with ever so many minute holes.
For this purpose it is provided with
an awl-like instrument incOmparably
sharper than the finest cambric nee
die. It punches the holes to get at
the oil contained in little glands just
beneath the surface. Upon this oil it
feeds, apparently. =
If you rub lump Of sugar hard
and persistently upon the skin of an
orange it will soon become saturated
with this oil (from the ruptured
glands), which has very strong fla
vor. It is the so-called Essential oil"
of orange.
The oil. leaking out of the glands
punctured by the trust mite" forms a
coating which, as it dries, is turned
to a rusty color by contact with the
air. 1t is in effect varnish, which,
being impervious to moisture. pre-
vents the juice from evaporating.

nations of her charges, but ignored
them and led them into an opportune
woods road. Now the head counselor
did not look day older than some of
her campers. However, she was twen-
ty-five. Miss Holden, though only
year older. looked every bit of it.
Therefore 1t was not surprising that
the dapper young officer, halting his
detachment and hurrying ahead, should
address the latter. With lifted cap,
disclosing brown curls closely bar
bered, he inquired if the shore road
came out on the highway. Then he
listened attentively to Miss Holden's
reply-and looked at Muriel.
At crisp order from their COM
mander the sailor lads continued down
the road. The campers vanished into
their own woods. The incident was
closed.
Lily Dart, a romantic young woman
of seventeen, elaborated upon the
meeting to Bertha. "And the officer
was a peach. He fairly ate up Miss
Muriel with his eyes"
Muriel looked up from where she
was assisting ole of the "Cleveland
twins" to pick up a stitch gone wrong.
Lucky he used his eyes instead of
those white teeth, ILL.," she said, ''but
I don't admire fatal beauty in a man.
So don't waste your time building up
a romance on that look"
It was when the campers were out
In the canoes the next day that a big
square envelope arrived. There was
to be hop on the following Saturday
night ut the reserve station. Every
one at Camp Segatchie was invited.
Great was the rejoicing among the
girls when they returned and heard
the news. Immediately what to
wear" became the principal topic of
conversation. Lily Dart, against the
rules of the camp, had brought a very
hossy evening gown. Every one was
envious. That matter, however, was
quickly settled by Muriel. "Now. girls"
said that decided young lady, the cos
tune of the evening will be q white
skirt, white MILDLY, white shoes and
stockings; then your black sailor ties.
We are campers, not q society outfit.
I shall wear the same"
'Tn bet that good-looking officer
takes you for one OF u.s." gushed the
irrepressible Lily. Really, Miss
Muriel. you don't look day older"
As 1t happened, the romantic proph-
ecy came true. Ensign Richard
Aikens simply took it for granted that
Muriel wes one of the campers. She
let him labor under that delusion.
When he inquired her home port she
gave Akron. Ohio, which, luckily, she
knew-for 20 did Ensign Aikens. He

When the news reached Camp Sc
gatchie that a Junior naval reserve
station was to be located near by
Muriel Brown, the head camp coun-
selor, sighed audibly and remarked to
her coworkers: "We'll earn our keep

Bertha. Muriel's eldest sister and
the business manager Of Sagatchle
Camp for Girls, paused in her task of
arranging simple furniture in an A
tent. "Cheer up, sis; there will, per-
force, have to be grown-up uniforms In

dances. Those naval men dance like
dreams, too"
'M-m-m; maybe so. But I prefer
dreams in my own little hammock,
thank you, after strenuous days

There were 80 girls at the camp that

years old. Clad exactly alike in khaki

they were not. But when the young

But the head counselor had decided;
by the time she drew close to the place
designated for the meeting, that she
would do that very thing.
Aikens was sitting on rock when
Muriel came into sight. He arose and
greeted her. "Miss Brown, I was
wrong to ask you to meet me here
clandestinely, but there is something
want to tell you where no one can
overhear."
"Why, this is interesting" said
Muriel; "you nave something to tell
me and I have confession to make

first"
Ensign Aiken, after moments hes1-
