Larva Is White Caterpillar.

The larva of he European corn
borer is a dirty white caterpillar,
about an inch long, with brown
head. It passes the winter in a nearly
ll-grown condition within its food
plants. In the spring it's growth is
completed and it then bores its way to
the surface of the food plant, where it
makes a slight hole to serve as an
exit for the resulting moth.
The larva now forms cocoon in the
burrow, passes into the pupal stage,
and in about two weeks the adult moth
elneges The moth, which lives about
two weeks, deposits 300 to 700 eggs on
the food plant. In about five days the
eggs hatch, and the young larvae at
first feed on the tender shoots of the
plants, but finally bore their way into
the main stem of the plant. In about
six weeks, after burrowing through all

RARE DOUBLES TO MONARCHS
Resemblance, Fancied and Real, Have
Given Rise to Some Highly
Imaginative Stories.

Most mOnarChS possess ut least one
double, but so far the double OF the
present shah of Persia has not been
discovered His grandfather, NaSr-ed-
Din. had Il famous double in the person
of Edmund Yatee. The resemblance
between these two was 50 striking that
Yates photographs were sold in BruS-
sells us the shah's when NaSr-ed~Din
visited that city. However, he never
suffered through the possession of a
double as another monarch did, if we
may credit q theory Of Andrew Lang
According to that Ingenious historian
Queen Elizabeth and Darnloy were
doubles. The second husband of Mary
Queen of Scots was not, as is generally
supposed, blown up in the explosion of
Kirk q Field, but escaped into Eng
land. He then somehow got Elizabeth
at his mercy and ultimately secured
her throne posing as the queen to the
end of his days. Thanks to the amaZ-
ing resemblance between the two, the
impoSture was not discovered until
after Darnley's death.-AIancheste

The thing that happened four

who had any part in the world war.

that the American people will sup
