The Silkworm at Work.
The insect is ia one sjrHe a tiny man
ufacturer himself, finding his "raw ma
terial" chiefly in the leaf of the mulber
ry tree, wbicb gives name to the com
mon silk-moth, the caterpillar of which
U the silkworm. The tree is s.id by a
proverb to be made for the worm and
the worm for the tree, and it seems to
hive a fibre peculiarly suitable for tex
tile use, some of the Pacific Islanders
miking clothing by macerating the
bark of the paper mulberry, without the
intervention of the silkworm. Most of
the silk of commerce is made by this
one worm from this one food, yet it can
feed in whole or in in part, upon other
leaves, as those of the osage orange in
this country, and it has a score of cons
ins and distant relations, as the Tassah
moth of Indi3, which live upon other
trees and prodnce a similar material.
- The moth is about an inch long, whi
tish, with brown stripes, and lays at the
close of summer numerous eggs about
the size of pin heads, attached singly to
the leaf with a sort of gum, which when
dry has a silky appearance. The moths
soon die, the eggs do not hatch until
the next summer, and can mean
while be sent around the world. The
sale of grain or seed, as the eggs are al
so called, is of itself a business, for it
brings as much as four dollars per ounce
ten-fold the price years ago, before an
epidemic swept throngh the silk world.
Each moth lays from four hundred to
-seven hundred eggs, but it takes over
six hundred thousand to make a pound.
In obtaining eges for breeding, the
grower usually planes the rnoths on
vloth in a dark, warm room, where they
contentedly lay their eggs and die. In
tropical countries, such as Southern Chi
na and India, the ecres hatch bv natur
al heat ; in other, artificial heat is ne-
cessary ; and in old times hot -beds were
used, or the eggs were carried about by
the women, in little bags in their bos
oms. The careful grower makes ready
for the hatching by providing a number
tf latticed trays or bundles of twigs,
about which the food of finely chopped
mulberry leaves is distributed. The
tiny worm at first eats two meals a day ;
at the end of five days he cast3 his first
skin, on the ninth day his second, again,
on the fifteer.th, twenty-second and
thirty-second days he 'moults," becom
ing torpid and exchanging old skins for
new. Like his fellow worm, man, he
has "seven ages," the sixth, when he
has obtained the mature age of thirty
two days, is the spinning, and the last
the breeding period. At the approach
of the spinning age the worms from an
ounce of eggs (nearly forty thousand
eggs) will have required over 1,200 lbs.
of leaves, and will need about 14 square
feet for their homes.
Each day's hatching is kept togeth
er, lest the oldtr eat up the lovd from
the weaker brethren, and every care
must be taken to prevent the growth of
the minute fungus which makes "silk
worm rot," and to ward off other dis
eases. In lol Euroye was swept of
much of its silken wealth by on of
these parasitic diseases, and one of Pas
teur's early triumphs was iu discover
ing its nature.
The worm is conservative and never
attempts to move from his place until it
is time to begin spinning. lie then be
comes distpuded with the silk juice and j
semi transparent, lik a ripe yellow
plum, and he cnn presently be observed
lifting his head and looking at out for a
good site for his cocoon building which
has been furnished by the cocoon grow
er iu arches of twigs on lattice work,
gome of the worms are lazy, and the
twig has to be applied. The spinner,
with careful forecast , adjusts his body
in the tiest position for the cocoon, and
commences to throw the flogs which
forms it outer ccatine.
The mut-iia! of the silk is a gummy
secretion in sericteria, two large glands
along each aid of the body, terminating
each In a spineret in the mouth ; each
thread proves on niicroopic examination
to be double, one stratid coming from
each spineret. .What the ang'er prizes
;is "silkworm gut," is this sericteriura
soaked in vinegar, stretched and dried
in the sun. The worm closes himself in
tighter, the interior thread being the I

1 looked feet and throws his head here
ami there as he spins.
The thread is sometimes 1.800 feet
long withontbreak; good rocoons should
yield IMO yards. It takes at least 2, .100
worms to raise a pound of silk. Within
five or six days the splnuing is comple
ted, and the moth presently makes prep
arations to euiergH, by the help of an
other secretion which softens and dis
solves the end of the cocoon. Since in
piercing th end ot the cocoon the worm
breaks the continuity of the thread, it
is usually killed just before this stage
bv exposing the cocoon to the sun where
the tempeiature is above 88 degrees, or
by bking, steaming, or otherwise heat
ing them so tint the fibre is not gum
med together by the heat.

Feathered Farmers and Thieves.
Speaking of the prominent profes
sions, there are at least two of them
! farmer and thief represented among
! the birds. They destroy countless mil
' lions of insects, and this well-known
j fact, of which every body ia so tired ,
! contributes more toward the production
I of supplies thau all the work done by
farmers. It is known that the birds all
' over the world eat more insects in one
day than all the human inhabitants
! could count in a year, and if they were
: to die the world would come to an end,
; for bo fast do insects multiply that one
! season would pass and the next wonld
I not find a leaf, bud, blade of grass, or
j other living thing on the face of the
i globe. The change would be as though
j the sun had ceased shining and per
' petual winter enwrapped the eartt.
This is what is meant by the remark
that birds eat a good many bugs.
As for thieves, there are plenty of
them among the feathered class. They
steal chickens, pull np corn and wheat,
stal bright-colored ribbons, and an oc
casional piece of sparkling jawelry left
carelessly near an open window; but,
after all, that is no worse than mem
bers of out own race do, and while the
human thief makes no reparation, the
bird helps to keep the earth from being
depopulated; so what matters a chick
or two or a diamond ring which is no
nse to the rest of the world? It is a
enrions thing to see the rarities of dis
position and character displayed by
them. The quiet, shy, bashful thrush;
the saney, impudent wren; the sly, pry
ing, btrrejay; the boldness of the hawk
' or prond, warlike bearing of the game
cork I The Enelish sparrow, what a queer
fellow he is a foreigner who is so per
fectly at home here that one would
think him the only native bird. lie is
' going to be eomfortable in spite of all
opposition. He insists npon it. If yon
! don't like it you can lump it. The spar
' row is one of the three birds that do not
belong here. Tie was brought to this
country aborrt fifteen years ago, during
! a craze that made people fancy that a
geed-eating bird would rid ns of insect
pests. This was done against me aa
vice of well informed persons, and now
the invicible little bird has overrun the
entire country, at.d can laugh at legis
latures and ornithological societies.

Bahfes Insrrred.
I I saw a yotine man of my acquaint
! ance emerare from a liouse :n a crowded
' tenempnt section of New York, writes
! the correFporiffer.t of the Albany Arjwjt.
I was surprised, and asked what he wis
doing there,
i "Oh, my employment now brings me
here everyday," he replied. "In fact,
T spf-td most of my time in this dis
trict." "And what is yonr business?" I iri
qn:red. "Insurance."
"Life or fire?"
"Well, neither. To tell yon the
truth, I trot rather hard tip a little while
; aso and went into the baby insurance
business. T'm doing right well, too,
though its hard work to collect the
premiums from these poor people. We
insure the funeral expenses of infants
iti case they die."
"As soon as there is a baby boin in
i one of these tenements I go in and offer
' to insure it for a few cents a week.
That is to say, we agree to provide the
funeral facilities if the child dies with
in a year. The style of the thing de-
; rerids rn the amount of preminm money
' paid. Rome insure for a plain coffin
and one carriage; others for a hand-
' ?ome casket and a half dozen vehicles.
It is a great comfort to these poor par
ents to Know that no matter what may
happpn to baby, it will have decent
: burial."
' "lint the city authorities always bury
the poor free of charge," I remarked,
i "Why do these folVs buy what they can
I gft for nothing."
j "Bless yon." responded my friend,
i "yon don't kr.ow them. They've got
as mnoh pride, in this matter as you

Dissecting an Elephant.
It will be remembered that a week or
ten days ago an elephant named Albert
developed an ugly and pugnacious dis
position at Keene, N. II., where the
menagerie with which be was traveling
was located, and killed his keeper. He
had been ugly and treacherous on pre
vious occasions, ahd it was not consid
ered safe to permit him to live longer.
By order of Mr. Barn nm the authori
ties of the femithsonian Institute were
notified that the execution was to take
place, and that they could have the car
cass if they desired it. Accordingly
Messrs. Ilouidan and Lucas, of the
National Mnsenm, were dispatched to
Keene, where they arrived last Tues
day afternoon. Through the aid of City
Marshal E. Jl. Iocke and Chief Engi
neer George Wheelockthey secured the
services of Mr. J. F. Kerwin, a well
known local knight of the butcher
knife and cleaver, and two other ex
perts, and on Wednesday morning,began
the work of dissecting the enormous
pachyderm. The head and trunk was
first removed, and then the hide was
taken off in two pieces, being split on
the back and belly. The hide was in
many place an inch and a quarter thick,
and tne work required nearly three
hours. In the afternoon the skeleton
was dissected, and every bone was saved
intact. The firing party consisted of
20 men, 12 of whom fired at the heart
and 17 at the head. During the au
topsy,so to speak, six ballets were found
in the heart, and they all had been
flattened.
In the evening those of epicurean
tastes dined on elephant steak at the
Cheshire House, and it ia reported that
many who did not know what they
were eating pronounced the steak un
usually fine in flavor, but a little bit
tough. The hide weighed 1,043 pounds,
and the skeleton 1,455 pounds. The
beast alive weighed about 7,000 pounds,
was supposed' to be 30 years old, and
was valued at 110,000. The preserved
portion was safely shipped to Washing
ton on Thursday, and Messrs. Ilouidan
and Lucas consider that they have se
cured an unusually perfect specimen for
the National Museum. About 500
Keenites witnessed the dissection with
great interest. Boston JfernUl.

"John," said the old man, as he laid
down his paper and wiped his glasses,
"we've got one hoss wuth 500 of any
man's money."
"Yes father.,r
"We've got another vrho is half blind,
and can't quite aim his keep."
"Yes."
"And a third whoM eat a common
man poor inside of a year, and no good
except to get up a neighbor quarrel."
"That's so, father."
"Well, now, what wonld be the re

instead of makiu' $." hosses of the
others?"
"K'rect, father."

Hraziliax Oranres. Oranges will
flourish and are profitable in all parts of
llrazil, and the exportation of them
amounts to several millions annually.
The Umbigo, the favorite variety at
Cahia, is without seeds, large, sweet
and delicious, beginsto ripen about May
and lasts til! September. The most
common and popular kind at Rio Janei
ro is the Siletta, which has a sweet and
delicions flavor. The Tangerina is a
smaller variety than the Siletta, many
floeded and ripening about the same time
as tbe latter, and has a deep orange-colored
skin that breaks easily in peeling,
with an aromatic odor. The orange or
chards are generally situated on low,
sandy land, convenient to transporlation
by water. The trees are planted along
from February to May about fifteen feet
apart, and begin to bear in about five or
six years, yielding then from twenty to
thirty oranges each, and increasing the
crop for ten years till in full bearing,
when they produce from 200 to 300 and,
in most favoiable circumstances, l,000i
oranges a vear. The trees remain fruit
ful for more than thirty years Thecosb
of cultivating and attending 1,000 od
ange trees in Brazil is estimated at
about $70 a year.
Thk Hear and thk Wolf. The
bear and the wolf had been warm
friends for many years when the wolf
one day asked for a loan to help him out
of a tight squeeze. To his utter aston
ishment the favor was promplry re
fused. "Haven't we Wen friends? asked
the wolf.
"Truly, we have."
"And don't you wish to be 5d the fu
ture?" "It is for that reason," aaswered the
bear, "that I refuse Ihe ion. If you
have no trouble in repaying me yon will
depend upon me in all futare emergen
cies. It you fail to repay you will be
come my em'tny tor life."
