Everybody was excited. Yes, sir,

bubbling over with excitement. Even
Spotty the Turtle, who usually takes
everything 50 calmly that some peo-
pie call him stupid, climbed up on
the highest point Of an old leg
where he could see what was going
on.
Only Grandfather Frog, sitting
on his big green lilypad and watch
ing for foolish green flies for his
breakfast, appeared not to know
that something unusual was going
on. Really he was just as much ex-
cited as the rest, but because he is
very old and accounted very, very
wise. 1t would not do for him to
show it.
What was it all about? Why, all
the Minks and the .Coons and the
Otters and the Muskrats who live
and play around the Smiling Pool
and the Laughing Brook were hunt
ing for traps. Yes, sir. they were
hunting for traps set by the Fur
Hunters Son, just as Grandfather
Frog had advised them to.
Now Farmer Browns Boy loved
all the little animals who lived along
the Smiling Pool and the Laughing
Brook and he had warned the Fur
Hunters Son that setting traps on

and at this location they are de-
voting their attention to the bios
SONS on the thistles. The nectar
Of the soapworts, where beds of
them were in bloom, were their most
cherished spot for refreshment, as
well as in the valleys of Virginia,
where there are beds of these beau
tiful flowers. In the early mornings,
while the dew was still upon them,
the moths would seem to come from
every direction, and lowering over
the flowers, they looked like jewels
lately fallen from the sky.
The genus Celerio. to which these
moths belong, Is an excellent repre-
sentative in the Old World. and
there are also several South Amer
ican species. There are but two
species that appear in our territory.
All have moderately sized head,
eyes that are hemispherical and not
prominent. The antennae are armed
at their tips with tiny hooks. The
thorax Is strong and rather large
covered with a handsome fur coat
summer and fall. The abdomen Is
comic in shape and untufted. There
are II veins in the forewing and the
outer margin is slightly and evenly
bowed. The hind wings have the
outer edge evenly rounded.
There are many host plants ac-
ceptable to the mother for depositing
her eggs. She is botanist that
never confuses her plants. Her off,
spring will awaken to find them
selves close to an abundant food
supply. though their dear mother
will have gone to her reward.
