Gelling Kid of tho Grasshopper*.
The Virginia City (Nov.) Chronirlt
says: Buring tiir past two seasons Si
erra valley baa been mUnli4 to th*
devastations of the Insatiable grasshop
per. The farmers, however, have not
noon discouraged hut have maintained
their unequal fight against the prats, un
willing to lose hind so productive and.
valuable as long as tt.ere was the slight
est hope of deliverance. A now ally ]
has come to the farmer's assistance in
the shape ola white worm. Million* of
little egg* are Said alongside the crass
hoppers' eggs, and the worms coming out
first proceed to feast upon the unitteu
hated egg of the grasshopper. If any of
the 'hoppers survive the attack of tin
worms, a little rial hug dart* into the
fra \ and proceeds to business at once
The tint active work he does is to eat ,
the grasshopper's head off. He quietly i
fasten* himself behind the grasshopper's
ears and burrow* into his brain, which
he devours in a few hour*, leaving the I
grasshopper physically and mentally in •
a bad fix The'hopper dors not always
die. but his mental faculties being af
fected he loses his tine sense of discrim
ination. and is just as liable to eat one •
of his numerous relatives or a patch ol
weed* as to banquet upon the farmer's
wheat, and linally he perishes miserably
The rtai bug meanwhile dies in the
grasshopis r's he.\d for w ant of nourish
ment, and the white worm, having ac- t
emnplislieti its mission on earth, winds |
up its business affairs and is gathemi to
its fathers, while the hilarious farmer,
happily rid of the multifarious inseotlv- j
enats "pest#, takes down his fiddle and
his how and dashes off a familiar hoe
down on his hack stoop, and the hired
help •• pat juha," while the children
dance merrily until the moon rise* in the
eastern skv. and all hands go to he.l.
'•How Long llatr Ito the I" i
It is not every one who asks himsel
this question, because, strangely enough
it is the belief of most persons that their
lives will be exceptionally lengthy. 1
However, life assurance companies arc
aware of lite credulous weaknesses of i
those whose lives they assure, and have
therefore cowpiloi numerous tables of
expectancy oT life for thoirownguidar.ee,
which are carefully referred to before a
policy is granted. The following is one ,
of these well authenticated tables in u-e
among la>ndon assurance companies,
showing the average length of life at
various ages. By tlds table we an'
enabled to peep, as it were, behind the
scenes of an assurance office, and gat her
from their table the number of years
they will give us to live. This table has
been the result of can'ful calculation,
and seldom proves misleading. Of •ourse
sudden and premature deaths, a* well as
lives .unusually extended, occasionally
occur, hut this is a table of the average
expectancy of life of #n ordinary man or
woman:

Joke* from Paris Papers.
An Italian and a Greek are discussing
trie glories of their respective father
lands.
" Greece is the bos country." exclaims
the Grecian; "it was from GreeceUiat
all the sages and philosophers came—
wasn't it?"
"It was—all the sages ami plriloso
phers came from Greece, and so you
haven't had any since."
What is the mat er. Alfred? What
do you find so interesting in the river
that you stare at it so fixedly?*'
"My wile is iu bathing and took a
dive from that boat out there, and she
has been under such a time that I'm
getting uneasy."
" iiw long has she been under?"
" About two hours—it wasn't quite
three o'clock when she went in."
"Now. young man." said the fond
mother to her -n. aged four, " you've
got to get over oeing such a cry-baby,
and I want \ou to understand that if I
see a tear out of your head again to-day
I won't take you to the matinee— under
stand?"
The young man promises to abstain
from tears, but in less than half an hour
there are chasing each other down his
innocent nose.
"Is this the way you keep your
promise?" says hts mother. *' No
matinee for hoys that enr."
"Oh. ma." he responds, promptly, " I
ain't crying -thesr :kn't tears—l'm—-
hoo-uoo!—l'm laugh iiV—boo-hoo!"
All that Glitters Is Not Gold.
One of the beauties and charms of an
editor's life is in his deadheading it on
all occasions. No one who has never
tasted of the sweets of that biiss can be
gin to lake in its glory and its happi-*
ni'ss. He does SIOO worth of advertis
ing for a railroad, gets a " pass " for a
year, and rides s'!s worth; and then
he is looked upon as a deadhead or a
half-blown dead-beat. He " puff*" a
concert troupe $ 10 worth and gets ? 1 in
" eomplimentaries." and is thus passed
" free." If the hall is crowded he is be
grudged the rootu he occupies, for il
his eomplimentaries were paying
tickets the troupe would be so much in
pocket. He blows and puffs a church
festival free to any drain*! extent, and
does the poster printing at half rates,
and rarely gets a "that k you" for it.
It goes in as a part of his duty as an ed
itor. He does more work gratuitously
for the town and community than ail
the rest of the population put together,
and gets cursed for it all. while in many
instances where a man who donates a
few dollars for the Fourth of July, base
bail club or church ii gratefully re
membered. Oh.it is a sweet thing to be
an editor. He passes " free," you know.

luxurious lot from the following, in the
Chronicle, of that p! ve: There wu a
time when rich men" 4 ' wives and daugh
tcrs in New York and other cities on the
E:istejn frontier used to be richly
dressed. This was during and immedi
ately after the war. The other day a
large consignment of the costly jewels
worn by the New York social belles dur
ing the times that were good came to
ea dville to be sold. Such consign
ments linve been common in the last few
weeks. Through reverses in fortunes,
the high-toned indie of New York are
compelled to s"U. Through great and
unexpected prosperity the ladies of I/tad

daughter of one of the Kittie Kroekcr
mine owners paying two or three thou

four thousand dollar* for a brace of
bracelets, or two thousand for a finger
ring, is nothing uncommon. One house
in this city is now- wholly engaged in
bringing to Leadville the most costly
jewels that can be found in the Eastern
markets, and during the season now at

Leadville that will dazzle.
A Ilird's Eggs Magnetized.
Mr. Latbrop, County Recorder of
Lyon county, Nev., has in his office at
Dayton a wren's nest, containing two
eggs so ch irged with electricity that they
act precisely as a magnet. If the open
hlaaeof a knife be placed within half an
inch of them, says a local paper, they
will be attracted at once, and will ad
here to the blade until removed. The
eggs were charged with electricity by a
telegraph wire passing throueh the tree
which sheltered the next. They have
beer, in the cabinet aliout two months,
and are just as magnetic now as when
he first got them. An offer of fifty dol
lars has been refused for them.
A new Australian delicacy is finding
its way into the London markets in the
shape of dried kangaroo tongues. The
tails and skins of these animals have
long been utilized—the former for mak
ing soup, the latter for leather; and the
recent enormous destruet : on of kangaroos
has given considerable impetus to these
two trades. Struck by the waste of food
occasioned by the slaughter of so many
thousands of these marsupials, whose
bodies are frequently left where they
have fallen, a Warroo settler made an
experiment in curing the tongues of
some of the slain, and so highly were
they approved that a considerable trade
has sprung up in this commodity. The
tongues are usually cured by drying in
moke, like the Russian reindeer tongues.

We have loved dogs. In youth we
had a noble animal named Brutus. He
was intelligent, affectionate and firm.
It wis his liabit to attend a company ot
schoolgirls in their evening walk, and
his demeanor on those occasions marked
his pride as weil as his courtesy and
dignity. One evening a gentleman met
the admirable procession, and advanced
with an animated -tcp to pay attention
to a young lady with whom lie was in
timately acquainted. Brutus had his
eye u|>m him. and without displaying
any rudeness whatever, quietly advanced
himself, intercepted the young gentle
man's hand as it vv a* gracefully put for
ward and envelop* d it with lii* raou.h
just .as it was aixtut to clasp the hand of
the young lady. The teeth of Brutus
were gently pressed upon the hand, but
did not pierce or'tesr it The young
gentleman gradually withdrew the hand
which the faithful guaH had gently
interrupted. He was so struck with the
conduct of Brutus that he became his
devoteJ friend, and ever aft-r honored
the dog that so faithfully protected the
lady he admired. — Rirhniond ( Fa.) Ihs

How Carlyle Served a Visitor.
Thomas Carlyle's power of checking
undue forwardness are the theme of
numerous anecdotes, tin* most character
istic of which if the following, which is
literally true: A presuming f'-!low, who
h ul ben brought to dine with him by a
common friend, began to speak slight
ingly of his great hero. Hums, calling
him " a much overrated man," etc. Car
lyle made no comment, which embold
ened the critic to continue in the same
strain till dinner ended. When they
rose to go to the drawing-room, tke host
broke his grim silenee at last: " Is that
your hat and stick in the corner, sir*"
; 'Yes." "Then you bad letter take them
and begone at once." The crestfallen
visitor obeyed, ami his introducer was
about to follow, when "true Thomas"
stopped him, saying that "he had done
no wrong." This recalls the story of a
worthy Quaker who attempted to dis
arm a well-known " better tongue " by
inviting him to dinner; but the back
biter. whiie enjoying the good cheer,
continued his abuse unabated. Theman
of peace, after bearing it for a time, sud
denly sprang upon his reviler, saving:
" Friend. I have given thee a meat-offer
ing and a drink-offering; and now," lie
rnided,, lifting him through the open
window into the street, " I will give tnee
a Aeare-offering."
The Hoomernng.
Tliis curious weapon, peculiar to the
native Australian, iia* often proved a
puzzler to men of science. It is a piece
of carved wood, nearly in the form of a
crescent, from thirty to forty inches
long, pointen at loth ends, and the cor
ner quite sharp. The mode of using it
is quite as singular as the weanon. Ask
a black to throw it so as to fall at his
feet, and awav it goes full forty yards
before him. skitnm : ng along the surfaee
at three or four feet from the ground,
when it will suddenly rise in the air
fifty or sixty feet, describing a curve
and finally drop at the feet of t..<
thrower. During its course it revolvoF
with great rapidity, as on a pivot, with
a whizzing noise. It is wonderful to
barbarous a people should have in
vented so singular a weapon, which sets
laws of progression at defiance. It'
very dangerous for a European to try lA,
project it at any object, as it may return
ana strike himself. In a native's hand
it is a formidable weapon, striking with
out the projector being seen; like the
Irishman's gun. shooting round a corner
equally as well as straightforward.—

ber of times with a lantern; but let her
come to live with liim from dry to day,
from week to week, in sunshine and in

when it is lab'; when his boot-jack i* on

A Chapter on Jans.
The amount of advance which any
tribe ha* attained may la* roughly esti
mated by the extent to which jaws have
decrtascd in size. Savage nations use
their teeth much more than their
civilized compeers. They feed on
coarser and harder food, ill-cooked or
not cooked a! all; tney nre compelled to
masticate what they eat much more
powerfully than is the cane with nations
which live mainly upon ground wheaten
bread, ladled rice or well-cooked flesh;
they have no knives or forks to assist
them in dissecting their meat, and they
gnaw bones, cut tendons or crack nuts
with their teeth alone. The are often
compelled to live upon small and hard
seeds, unhruised grain, thick-shelled in
sects or crustaceans and other solid
kinds of food. Moreover, all their food
stuffs contain a large proportion of in
nutritious matter, rejected by the higher
processes of preparation (as, for exam
ple, the bran in wheat), and hence they
are obliged to eat much more matter to
obtain an equal amount of nutriment.
Lastly, they use their teeth t* a great
extent as implements, where civi.ized
people would employ a knife, cork
screw, hammer, pincers or handmill.
Through all these causes the jaws of the
least advanced savages still retain their
original large size, being only so far de
creased as necessarily results from their
disuse as netual weapons. On the other
hand, civiiize i men have gone on mak
ing their cookery or other means for pre
paring food stand them more nnd more
in the stead of mastication. They have
learned to boil or roast meat; to extract
the juices in soup, gravy and jelly; to
dissect it with saws and carving knives.
They have acquired the art of grinding
and ladling flour, of baking bread, and
of giving it lightness by yeast or leaven.
They have rejected the coarserseeds and
millets for tne cereals, pulses and pota
toes. They have minimized the amount
of innutritious matter mixed witli their
food. And so they have given the jaw
less and less work to do from generation
to generation, antil at last its bones have
become partially atrophied from disuse,
and have assumed their present small
dimensions. One of the distinguished
pecu.iaritics of a good dinner, as civil
ized people understand the term, is that
it imposes little work upon the diner
either in its mastication or its digestion.
The soup is clear; the fish is delicate;
the cutlets are tender; the chickens arc
young and well-dressed: the pastry is
light and melting; the jellies are smooth,
ami the fruits and vegetables are soft and
pulpy. Contrast such a dinner for a
moment with a savage feast on half
oooked flesh and parched grain, and we
see at once the reason for this enormous
difference in the caliber of the masticat
ing apparatus.

44 Blind Cat " In Knme.
A Home correspondent oft he Phila
delphia Bulletin write*. Our *epb-mlH'r
amusement is not spoetie. Tlii* eon
■ists ola game ealh-d "Blind Cat, well
known to children, only it takes place
in public hen-, and all during the night,
lasting sometimes until midnight.
Those who have Iteen in Home will re
member the l'iazza del Popolo, niaccd
at one end of Home. On on<- side it has
one of the town gate* leading into tlie
country; n another there is a garden;
opposite to litis is tlte Pineio Hill, with
its marvelous terraces, and in front of
the gate fir-it mentioned begin the three
principal streets of Home —the Corao,
Hahuino and Hipetta. Tlte Corso is in
the renter ofßabuino and Hipetta—ex
actly in front, therefore, of the gate. A
church separates each street from tin'
other. In the center of the Piazza is a
pyramid and tlie inevitable fountain. It
is at this center fountain precisely that,
when all i* quiet and omnibuses have
ceased to run. and cabs and carriages are
rarely seen, that men and women nice
in companies and begin the game o
"Blind Cat." One of tlie company is
blindfolded at tlie foot of the column,
with his face to tlie Corso. and then h"
is let loose to find his way to the ("orso.
You guess the rest. The unfortunate
blindfolded man or woman, instead.of
going to the Corso, a* he think*, move*
in every other possible direction ntid
finds lnmolf. when unhanded, either
at the Prince's gate or on the oriier side
of tlie fountain! Karely, if ever, has
anyone reached the Corso safelv. Be
fore beginning, e-irh player deposit* a
trifle in tlte secretary's hands, and each
loser add* to the store until tlie hour of
ceasing Ita* come. The money i* spent
in a supper and dance, or on a dinner
the following day. And this is the Ho
man amusement for Scpb mher, and big
men and women take part in it with the
enthusiasm fit children.

inches in height, and weighed 739
pounds. In l/itifi there was buried at
Bengal, India, a man named Cugua,
who claimed to he 350 years of age. The

A correr—.indent sav*: Ido not agree
wiili thorn jarmera wlio think they can
do all llietr pruning with tlis thuml and
ftngt r. Not by any means. One might
live in an orchard, it is true —and watch
every bud. but then vou have the disad
vantage of lu-ing tied to a tn-.-, .-uni not
knowing which way a bud will push oi
whether it will crow another when
growing. I prefer a sharp knife and
aw. and 1 prefer to let the young shoot*
grow one *ca*on (not a* an invariable
rule, however) and then 1 ran easily
tell which to save and which to remove.
I always cut hack when transplanting,
whether pmlts or seedling*, and gener
ally let them grow as they will the first
season; form the top the second year to
suit ine and follow tt up frequently, al
ways carrying a h(*rp knife. Have
done much of the pruning tin* vuar early
in the morning, before breakfast, and
late in tlte afh rnoop between lea and
dusk. Nevertheless, in an orchard of
l.txKt trees, the work is immense, and
some SOO young bearing trees wliieli
need pruning badly will have to go over
until alter haying. In hunting for the
apple tree borer, 1 alway* use a sharp
jack-knife ami a piece of hoopskirt wire.
Never fall to destroy them. It is the
onlv safe and effectual way. whatever is
said to the contrary. The more closely
I follow them the less they increase each
venr. Where the tree* were examined
twice ia*t year, the work of examination
was very light tlii* year, and I did not
find more than two out f 100 trees al
fected hv the borer. This great pest
might be entirely eradicated in a few
ve:trs by a little painstaking, if every or
ehanlist would only take hold of the
work earnestly.

The Paris correspondent of a New

of life in the gay capital: The Countess
! lie St. K is a iivdy young woman,
with a bedridden husband. She nurses
him like a good wife during the day,
' hut. to make up for the wearim ssof con
i slant attendance in a sick chamber, gives
a party on e a week. Iler receptions are
jolly -more jolly, indeed, than absolutely
j propr; still, "although skittishly in
! elined to kiek over the traces, she is not
' positively had, and, being a most amia
ble hostess, gives no reason to any one
! for the outrageous practical joke piayed
I off on her last week, when some funny
wag sent out 3,000 invitations to every
! "fast" woman and man in Paris. Fif
teen hundred persons, of whom not one
! tenth knew tlic countess even hy sight,
i responded to the summons, and as her
apartment will not hold more than 200
the overplus of guests filled up the
j stairs, got into other people's rooms,
' blocked up the entrance, and, finding
I out the mystification, either got into a
rage and became vituperative or else
joined in th spirit of the thing and noted
: like cads. It was bedlam broke loose.
Yells and screams and catcalls rang
through the corridors; somebody who
was in the secret let off firecrackers, the
, concierge interfered, other lodgers vo
ciferated, the police were sent for and
could not do anything, and only at four
j in the morning, after five hours of per
secution, did the poor lndy succeed in
clearing the premises of the intruders.
Funny, some of the newspapers were
disposed to call it; other persons thought
it cowardly, as the count's health de
prived the wife of a defender, and for
another champion than the legally re
sponsible editor to interfere would have
been compromising. However, some
body did, and although this is not the
cause assigned, the two or three duels
which have recently come off or are still
on the tapis are its consequences.
