Tlie Fate of Flic*.
Some light on the fate of lliea was
thrown by II. Hill in a lecture at the
Itoyal Victoria hull, London, 011 "Flies
and How They Disappear." In Eugland
alone there are 3,000 different
kinds of flies, niul Mr. Hill mentioned
tlic following principal ways in which
flics perish: They are drowned in milk
at the breakfast table; they got surrounded
by a white fungus, which saps
their strength; they are eaten by spiders,
wasps, frogs, chameleons, lizards,
held mice or flsb.
With so many enemies it might be
wondered how flies have continued lo
exist, hut Mr. Hill said that lie had
himself witnessed a daddy ionglegs

by a spider continuing calmly to lay
eggs with the other half, as though

"Why Men Wear Moitnclir*.
The Gaulois of Paris has been investigating
that grave question, "Why do
meu wear mustachesV" About 100
men answered the question. Six replied
that It was too much trouble to
shave, one declared .that it was to hide
his teeth, another that ids long nose,
without it, gave him a had appearance,
and three that It avoided colds. Three
others maintained that It improved the
air they breathed, and seven were of
the opinion that a mustache was necessary
to health. Seventeen men were
content to state that they did it to
please themselves, while only two said
it was to please their wives. About
sixty gave the reason that women do
not like clean shaven men.

Tit* Cruel riant.
A Canadian climber, the Pbysianthus
llbcus, ban received lliouameof "cruel
plauf" from Its ill treatment of butter- 1
dies. It flowers in (be month of August.
und tl?o butterflies, attracted by j
the perfume, hover around it in large
numbers and push their trunks iuto the
corollas to sip the honey. A pair of
jensitive vegetable pinchers in the I
heart of the flower grips the delicate
proboscis, and In spite of struggles to *
got free the butterfly hang? suspended
until It dies. Apparently the plant lias
nothing to gain by the.death of the Infect,
as it is not carnivorous, Mho the
Venus fly trap. In fact, if the butter- 1
[l.v were allowed to come and go It
ivould tend to foster the species by assisting
cross fertilization. It appears,
however. that the "cruel plant" came
jriglnally from "brazil, where the but
tor flics are much stronger and extri
. iito their suckers from the trap. \\ o
may add that another Canadian plant, I
the Cuieus discolor. Is charged with j
iruelty. The flower has a gland which 1
secretes a viscous liquid capable of t
liming insects which arc fond of It.

A C'olnnaal Ilnrp. j
The largest harp ever made, so far
is is known, was that invented and
constructed by M. Verilau, provost of
Burkli, near Basel. It was known as
[lie gigantic meteorological ..-Italian
harp. It was 320 feet in length and
ivas erected in the garden of its iuvent,?r
in 17S7. This harp consisted of fifteen
iron wires, 320 feet In leugth,
it retched between two polos. The wires
were front two to three inches apart,
the largest being one-sixth of an inch
in thickness and the smallest oneiwelftli
of an inch. They were placed
In the direction of north and south and
Inclined in such a manner as to form ;
an angle of froin twenty to thirty degrees
with the horizon, being stretched
by means of rollers properly disposed J
for the purpose. Whenever the weuth
or changed the wires sounded with j
such loudness that it was impossible to <
go 011 with n concert in the house. The .
sound sometimes represented the hissing
noise of water in rapid ebullition,
sometimes that of a harmonicon and
sometimes that of distant chimes or an
organ.
The ITrnt lint*.
Discoursing on the subject of liats an
antiquary expressed the opinion that
the hat was first used quite as much
for decoration as for protection. The
nueestor of all lints lie considers to
have been the fillet, or band, around the
hair worn by the ancient Greeks,
nniong others. Probably the first hint
gained by men regarding head ornaments
was through observing the I
crests, plumes and antlers of various
birds and boasts. The eastern races,
with their fondness for ceremony and
display, afford the most notable Instances
of the use of hats as signs of
rank and authority. Thus In Buddhist
countries the gods nro represented
as wearing elaborate forms of headgear.
I11 Korea the fashion attains its
height, no fewer than fifty kinds of
hats being worn by the natives as indications
of their social position.
The Cent I* Not Smell.
With the exception of the English
ponuy, the cent Is the largest minimum
unit of money in the civilized world.
Roughly speaking, our cent is worth 2
kopecks, 2 cents Mexican. Chinese and
East Indian, 2 atts or inilliemes. It Is
two and n half times larger than the
cent of the Netherlands or tlio kreutzcr.
There are 4 pies, ore, or pfennige to the
cent or 5 banl. centesimi, lopta, heller, I
ponnia, centimes or stotinki. A cent I
is worth 10 paras Turkish or 10 Japanese
rin. 11 cash Chinese or 00 paras 1
Servian. What the trolley car eon- |
ductors of Scrvla say when tendered a
five cent fare in paras would probably I
not be fit to print.
