BEETLE IS "GRAVE DIGGER"
Insect* Which Are "Undertakers" of
Animal World 8cent Dead Bodies
at a Great Distance.
When an animal dlea in a garden or
In the woods and decomposition begins,
carrion bugs come from far and
near. A dead bird, a mouse or a harmless
snake wantonly killed by some
wanderer provides a banquet for hundreds
of Insects. Among these the
"grave diggers" are found, embracing
43 species, 12 of which are found In
Europe, the rest In America.
You can Identify these beetles, says
Popular Science, by the two Jagged
yellowish red or reddish transverse
bands upon their black wing covers.
Their scientific names (Necrophorus)
means no more than "buriers of the
dead." As undertakers, the insects
have legs especially adupted for digging.
A grave-digger beetle has a most extraordinary
sense of smell, lie cun
detect the peculiar odor of decomposition
a long distance away and files to
the de&d thing as strulght as uu arrow.
Ills remarkably keen nose Is
situated in his club like feelers.
As a rule several gravo diggers are
found near a dead body. They cruwl
under It and scratch the supporting
earth away, so thut the body Boon lies
id a Dollow. Gradually the body la
lowered until It sinks below the surface.
Then It la covered with earth.
The female lays her eggs around the
interred form, thus insuring for the
newly hatched larvae a. plentiful food
supply.
SEES DOOM OF GOLDEN LOCKS
Statistician Predicts Extinction of
Fair-Haired Women, as a Species,
Within Next Two Centuries.
It Is gravely announced that the
bright glory of blond balr, locks of
pale spun gold, such as the Lorelei
combed with her golden comb, are
doomed to dlsuppear entirely. A statistician
has figured the whole mutter
out, and he Issues a solemn warning
that In two pitiful centuries the poets
(who will still be poets nevertheless)
must cease to sing of blessed daiuosels
with hair like ripe corn, except, of
course, retrospectively, or paying tribute
knowingly to a triumph of the
chemist's art.
The reason for the diminution of the
number ot talr women, the tlnul extinction
cf the species, la given by the
statistician with the solemnity properly
belonging to his profession and
province. Buys the New York Evening
Post. It is that blonds have been observed
to be less inclined to murrlage
than their darker Bisters. They are
thus condemning themselves to the
fate which must little by little overtake
them and rob the world of something
the world would not willingly be
bereft of.
For the benefit of those who are
admirers of white horses It may be
added that red hair does not count as
blond. It Is sul generis, und has staying
qualities as notuble as that of the
brunette type. ,
The Value of Bioaraphy.
It Is not only commanded by ancient
practice to celebrate the memory
of greut and worthy men, as the best
thanks which i>osterity can pay them,
but all the examples of virtue ure of
more vigor when they are thus contracted
Into Individuals. As the sunbeams,
united in a burning gluss to a
point, have greater force thun when
they are darted from plain superficies,
so the virtues and actions of man
drawn together In a single story,
strike upon our minds a stronger and
more lively impression than the scattered
relations of many men, and many
actions; and by the same means that
they give us pleasure, they atTord us
profit, too . . . and as the reader
Is more concerned at one man's fortune
than those of many, so the writer,
likewise, is more-capable of making a
perfect work If he confine himself to
this narrower compass.?Dryden.

WHERE TURTLES COME FROM
Thousands of 8*a Tortoise Make Annual
Pilgrimage to Ascension
Island to Lay Their Eggs.
The city fathers are not the only
people who have the privilege of eating
turtle soup, observes London Answers.
The lords of the admiralty could. If
they liked, make a monopoly of the
real article, for they hold sway over
H. M. S. Ascension?which Is not a
ship at all, but an Island?where the
turtles come from.
Ascension Islnnd Is a very lonely
spot. Its nearest neighbor Is St. Helena,
800 miles away. Ascension Is half the
size of the Isle of Wight, and has a
population of 120?or, rather, a "crew,"
for the people are almost entirely naviTl
who live at the garrison station of
Georgetown. The law of the Island Is
the word of the commanding ofllcer.
Ascension In nmlnly noted for the an
nual visit of huge sea turtles. They
come In thousands to lay their eggs In
the warm sand. It Is prnbnhle they
have come for tens of thousands of
yenrs. Some of them weigh as much
as 700 pounds I Every time they come
the Inhabitants of Ascension take toll
of them, storing them In fenced pens,
and eventually kuTTng them for food,
whilst a few of them are Invariably
sent to the lords of the admiralty as a
present from Ascension, a present
which Is greatly appreciated.
BASED ON ANCIENT CUSTOM
8uperatltlon Regarding Seeing the New
Moon Through Qlasa Is Older
Than Christianity.
"Don't see the new moon through
glass," thousands of people are Just
now saying. The superstition Is based
on a custom older than Christianity,
nnd enduring In places, travelers may
tell us, to this day, says the London
Chronicle. The Jews had no real calendar,
hut depended for the Inauguration
of the feasts of trumpets, which
began with the advent of the new
moon, upon actual observance of the
crescent. Jews watched, with reward
In view, for the coming of the new
moon, as our sailors watch for the appearance
of a periscope. Immediately I
they saw It they hied them to the high
priest at Jerusalem. They were permitted
to travel even on the Rabbath
for the purpose. Now the testimony
must be not only that of men of reputaiiou;
ii inuHi be that or men who had
seen the phenomenon with the naked
eye. The appearance of the moon must
not be noted as reflected In a stream,
nor through clouds, nor through glass.
That vitiated the value of testimony
nnd precluded possibility of reward.
Travelers from the East, possibly Crusaders,
brought the story to the West,
where It remains "unlucky" to see the
new moon through glass.

HOW TO HAVE A GOOD PASTIKE
In the August Farm and Fireside,
we read:
"While better results in pasturing
are obtained early in the season on
i
burned over fields, the ultimate ef- (
feet upon the stand of grass, and especially
of the choice forage stand,
is bound to be bad. The burning
cannot help destroying the crowns j
of many of the plants and also much
of the seed that might have been
j dropped the previous year, as well
as any plantlets just starting. 4
"The early growth of grass left H
without any protection from the previous
year's crops, together with ear- ^
ly grazing while the soil is damp, i
provides ideal conditions for the
weakening of many plants and the
total elimination of the choicest,
tenderest of them sooner or later
under the burning system of pasture
management.
"Some work has been done in
mowing to control weed growth. Results
to date indicate that weeds can
he effectively controlled, especially
on the level areas where weeds are (
growing to the exclusion of all forage
plants. Where the grass stand is
good and the weeds are few. mowing
has been detrimental to the growth
of grass even when cut as late as
| August 16th."

WHAT CATARRH IS
It has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
of the body, and local treatments in
the form of snuffs and vapors d . little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should u ?t Its
cause by enriching your blood with the
