AROMA FROM THE BUTTERFLY
Perfumes Pleasant and Unpleasant to
Human NostriIs Are Secreted by
Both Male and Female.

Peculiarly transformed scales on the
wings. or tufts of hairs on other parts
of the butterEy exude an aromatic Sc
erection, the secondary significance of
which is that it appeals TO the fe-
male insects. (. Some of the scents pro-
duced by the male Lepidoptera are
pleasant TO The human oIfactory sense,
resembling musk, mint, vanilla, honey,
and the like; others are suggestive of
mice and bats. 1t is interesting TO no.
tice that In some cases. though glandu-
lar scales are abundanny present, we
cannot smell anything. which probably
means that the aromatic substances lie
outside our range OF olfactory stimu-
lation, just as many rays Of light lie
beyond our range of vision.
1t may be that the volatile poison Of
toads, known as phrynin, infames the
olfactory membrane if we sniff it, yet
there is no smell

COULDN'T FACE THE UNKNOWN
Antics Of contorticnist Saved Him
From Hungry Tiger When Other
Escape Was impossible

1t is related that native of India.
who had learned some Of the elemen-
tary principles of jugglery and contor-
ton. put his knowledge TO a decidedly
practicable as well as novel use one
evening when he was walking upon
ridgy plain.
When the Hindu had reached the top
OF one of the mounds he saw tiger
ahead OF him. 500 or COO yards away.
Before the man could hide behind Il
mound the tiger had seen him and be-
gan to bound toward him at its top
most speed. Having no means of de-
Tense there was nothing for the man TO
do but to race for the nearest tree. but
though he tried it and put forth his
utmost strength the tiger steadily
gained on him.
What was he to do? In sheer des-
peration he resolved upon an unusual
scheme Just as he disappeared for
an instant from the tigers sight in
running over a ridge he halted,
stretched out his legs at right angles,
curled down his head SO as TO look be-
tween his legs TO the rear and extend
ed his arms upward in fantastic
manner. like the sails Of windmill
In a few seconds the tiger hove in
sight, and at that instant the face OF
the object assumed a hideous grmace.
A prolonged yell arose, such as had
perhaps never before pierced the ear
of any tiger, and the sails of the wind
mill began to revolve backward and
forward. as IL "A sudden whirlwind had
burst upon the scene.
The tiger recoiled. What, he evil
IDENTITY thought, is this? There stood
ferocious star-shaped monster, gigan-
tic against the sky. Its vise-like jaws,
between which those fiendish roars
were issuing, were actually placed
above it's two fiery eyes. Its limbs
were furiously clamoring for action !;
and the man he had been chasing,
where was he? Already devoured by
this terrible beast. The tiger did not
pause to reflect. He turned tail, ana
as he disappeared over a friendly
ridge last awful yell caused him to
redouble his pace. He was conquered
by the unknown.

ONLY RELICS OF LOST RACE
Network of Canals All That Remains
Of Early Dweliers in the
Arizona Deserts.

BY far the most interesting remains
of the lost people of Arizona are their
network of canals which prevail
through the valleys The longest is
the one tapping the ella river and
which supplied with water the ancient
city. now marked with the one stand
ing building. This is the Casa Grande,
about which so much has been written
and which has so excited much inter
est among psychologists in the last ten
years.
The volume of water taken out by
this canal must have been immense,
for It supported millions of acres. In
most places the canal has been filled
with drifting sand, but its course Is
easily traced. Engineers who located
the Maricopa canal made use of the
old Aztec ditch and today water runs
over its pebbly bottom just as 1t did
1000 or 5000 years ago.
For miles and miles around mounds
tell the tale of houses destroyed by
the ravageS of time. Phoenix was
built on the ruins of this ancient city
and there relics frequently are found
of this ancient civilization.

Early Meetifa Houses.

The earliest New England meeting
houses were built In valleys and
meadow lands, much the same as the
first Old First church in Springfield
for here 1t was that the homes were
located. For time it was required
that all homes should be built within
half a mile of the meeting house. for
the most part to afford protection 10
the settlers, since the building did
duty as a fort as Well as house of
worship.
As the population increased and new
settlers came into the villages the half
mile radius became too crowded to
permit this to continue. 1t was neces-
sary to go some distance 10 pasture
the cattle and for this reason the law
was Cancelled.

In his book, I'm the Wilds of South
America" Mr. Leo T. Millew tells us,
that when he Nent into Argentina on
a collecting trip he found an Italian
who claimed To be the champion con-
dor hunter of all South America. Dur
ing ten years he had killed more than
sixteen thouslnd of the magnificent
birds. His rscoxd for one day was
ia. Naturally, they had become
greatly reduced in number. for con-
dor lays no more than two eggs, and
it takes many months to rear the
young.
The mans method was to drive
burro 10 some lonely gorge among the
bleak mountain tops favored by the
birds and then Kill the animal. He
was very particular in stating that the
burro had TO BE fat-a poor one would
not do for bait. He then spread nets
about the cartaSs, and when HE con-
doris had gathered about to feast he
pulled rope and ensnared them. On
one occasion he shared 81 at one
throw of the net. The captured birds
were dispatched with club and the
long-wing feathers extracted. to be ex-
ported TO France to decorate womens
hats.

III MS report to the General
Assembly Mr. Hugh A. McMul-
len, who has been succeeded as
Comptroller Of the Treasury by
Major +. Brooke Lee, elected
last November, points out that
taxes i'll Maryland for State pur-
poses approximate s. per capita.
The federal taxes in 1920 will be
$50 per capita, and the county
taxes about So per capita, while
in Baltimore and other munich
palitics the taxes are from So to
SIP per capita.
The average family i'll Mary
land contains 40 persons. and
thus the governmental expenses
borne by each family is more
than $500. 1T is apparent, there
fore, says Mr. McMullen, that
the first duty OF those in charge
of the government is not only
to keep expenses where they are,
but, il possible, to reduce them. "
Comptroller Lee has succeeded
a highly capable man, and he is
undoubtedly aware of the re-
.sponsibilitics and opportunities
of his post, as we'll as being rare
~ qualified for them.~ The last
tate administration made a re-
markable record in handling ifs
cal affairs, and one member of it.

that the high standing of eff
cheney is assured.
