FISH KILLER.
THAT warning to owners of tropical
fish to beware of using spray in
secticides in rooms where fish tanks
are located is not due'to the oil likely
to be deposited on the surface Of the
water, but to the same poison used
by South American Indians to stun
their fish instead of catching them
on a hook.
A Washingtonian on an expedition
into the interior of Ecuador writes
that every Indian along the streams
has patch of plants from which the
poison is extracted. Lately 1t has
been adopted as an excellent inSecti-
eide.
Fish In this area of Ecuador do not
appear to bite on regular baited
hook. The Indians drop the poison
into the streams. It kills the smaller
fish and stuns the large, which float
on the top and can easily be caught.
The poison does not appear to affect
the edibility of the fish.

HAM DINNER-Sl.


A -WAYFARING went a prominent
Washington woman.
And wayfaring. even in motor car,
makes one hungry. BY the time this
same Washington woman reached
Romney, w. Va, she had decided
nothing would taste quite so good as
a juicy slice of good old country ham.
And right in the ham country, too.
1t ought to be good and it ought to
be cheap.
So into restaurant she went. She
seated herself and took up menu. A
steak dinner was so cents. Roast beef
was so cents But ham-yes, loWly
ham-was billed at s1O0 fiat. A ham
sandwich even was 80 cents.
A note affixed to the menu gave an
explanation putting the blame on the
noble experiment of the A. A. A.
Here it is:
Country hams are hard to get
are high priced. and We have to pay
a process tax of 4.36. Also have to
waste the ends and the fat. You
figure it OUT
The 4.36 means S4.36 pald uncle
Sam in a processing levy for each

Z you can imagine how fierce this
" beetle must look to its neigh
bors. The name seems most
Il fitting, at least for the males,
and these beetles have q cousin
In the West Indies that Is more thar,
twice the size Of our native son"
This ferocious looking fellow is harm
less, despite his size, and, though
his range is a wide one, each seems to
prefer the Southern States, where fig
leaves are plentiful. Even here the
beetles do not become q pest.
During the daytime they hide in
rotten logs and stumps. Here you may
also find their very portly offspring, or
earlier, the ivory-colored elastic eggs.
Like all beetles, they are far from
fragrant. In localities where they are
numerous their perfume at night be-
trays their presence. Collectors are
eager to add one or more rhinoceros
beetles to their collections. you must
remember that only the males have
the fierce-looking horns. Their mates
have little humps on their heads. It
may be that at one time, they, too,
had horns and q blond mustache.
The adult male will measure about
3h inches If his legs are spread out.
His body is broad and oval and the
upper part q bluish-gray, with brown
splashinss on the wing cases. remind
ing you Of the markings 80 often found
on birds eggs. Each Of the six legs is
outlined with sturdy spines and the
under part Of his body Is . rich ma
hogany brown. The blond whiskers
add much to his appearance Of fierce
ness.

THE original bearers Of this name
were natives of the island so called.
One eminent authority suggests that
the Emerald Isle took its name from
"Iar-land," combination of the
Gaelic Tar" meaning west, and Teu-
tonic land" signifying westland.
Early records mention the names of
Adam de Irlande and of Henry de
Irlande.
Members Of this family rose to
prominence in their native land and
1t is q name well known in America.
Thomas Ireland was the progenitor of
one branch Of the family in this coun-
try. He came to Stamford, Conn, and
later settled on Long Island. Samuel
Ireland, a carpenter, came to Boston
in 1885 from London. He established
his home in Wethersf1eld, Conn.
Descendants of these early settlers
are now living in New York. Massa-
chusetts. Connecticut and many other
States.
