FROM THE LAND OF WONDERS
Shasta County, California, Comes
Proudly to the Front With
Eggs That Dance.

Shasta county. California, Is the
land of wonders. The latest Is the
dancinig egg, relates London Tit-Bits.
1t is laid by an as yet undetermined
insect on the leaves of oak trees.
Masses of these eggs cling to the
under side of the leaf, and as they
advance toward maturity they drop
TO the ground and dance about.
BY holding an oak twig containing
any number of eggs to ones ear a
cracking sound may be heard, like the
splitting of electric sparks. The shell
contains tiny grub, working for re-
lease.
In many towns collections of the
eggs are on exhibition. When laid
on Il table these eggs bound about
and spring into the air, sometimes to
a height of 16 inches. They are par
ticularly active in the early morning.
This latest insect novelty takes rank
with the sulphur bug, which Is ut home
