formerly done by the scalo insects,
but these have become comparative
ly scarce since the introduction in
1800 of an Anstralian lady bird,
which at once increased prodigiously
and then decreased as its prey less
ened. Another introduced lady bird
has arrested the destruction of sugar
cane and fruit trees by aphilles. Cat
erpillars that have done great damage
to banana and palm trees are being
attacked by a gad fly from China and
Japan, with the prospect that the
plague will soon be overcome. A
Japanese beetle, which has destroyed
nearly all the rose trees since its ap
pearancs a few years ago, is being in
fected with a deadly parasitic fungus.
These are a few of the friends whose
aid is being sought, but, while the
result is proving an economic success,
the fact is deplored that the native
insect fauna is likely to disappear.
The Queen' Gold Spoon.
J( curious story is told of how one of
Queen Victoria's smallest gold spoons
was lost and found, savs the Lady. A
certain dame attended a State ball in a
dress the skirt of which was arranged
in perpendicular pleats in front,
stitched across at intervals, and, un-
Known to her, a gold teaspoon got
lodged at supper in one of these
receptacles. Of course, there was one
missing after the ball, aud it caused
great perturbation to the official in
charge of the gold plate.
The next spring the lady who had
been the innocent cause of the loss
went to a drawing-room in the identical
dress she had worn at the State ball,
and as Bhe bent low before Her
Majesty the pleats of her skirt ex
panded aud the gold spoon fell at the
Queen's feet.
Greater Now Vork's Police.
Greater New York will have a good

uniformed force will be inoreased to
about 10,000 men, and they will all be
clad in blue, with plenty of brass but
tons and gold lace. The police sur
goons and matroDs will have to don the

Knm Curious Watches.
With all our modern improvements
we rarely hear nowadays of watches so
faucifully complex as used to be made
for great folks in the times when all
watches were expensive and compara
tively novel. King George III., in
the year 1700, received a present of a
watch that was a kind of mechanical
almanac; it pointed out the date and
also had a device to show rtie varying
lengths of the days, according to the
season. It was not bigger than other
watches of the time, but then they
were all what we should call turnips
now. The Emperor Napoleon I. had
a watch which wound itself by means
of a weighted lever, which, at every
step His Majesty took, rose and fell,
and having a gathering click to it
wound up a racket attached to tho
barrel. Pedometers were afterwards
made on the same principle. The
Duke of Wellington had a watch
which was given to him by the King
of Spain, from which the time could
be told by the touch, the hours being
marked by studs. In the back of the
case was placed an index which, when
moved forward, would stop at the por
tion of the hour indicated by the
watch, and then by means of the studs
the time could be approximately com
puted in the dark. Catharine of Rus
sia had a watch constructed by an in
genious peasant which played a chant,
and had withiu it tiny mechanical
figures which, moving about, were
supposed to represent the scene of tho
resurrection of the Saviour; the chant
was then heard all over Russia at
Eastertiine. But this watch was big
ger than a hen's egg.
Sparrow Kill Dgron.
This ntory deals with the sagacity
and pugnacity of the English sparrow,
aud also shows how curiosity may get
an innocent creature into trouble. The
Riddle mansion, which stands in Gleu
Kiddle, Delaware County, has for
some time been the nesting place of
several families of sparrows, and the
birds had become a regular pest. One
day last week Miss Kiddle decided to
get rid of the birds, aud, mounting o
ladder, she tore out at least a dozen
nests from the eaves of the porch. The
old birds, returning later and finding
their homes wrecked, held a noisy
meeting on the roof and theu dis
persed. A stray pigeon that had been roost
ing around the place for several days
came back late in the afternoon aud
flew under tho porch eaves as usual.
The pigeon evidently noticed some
thing wrong, for several times he flew
from the porch to where the dismantled
nests lay. This caused trouble, for
the ongry sparrows noticed it,and sus
pected the pigeon of being the cause
of their despair. The Uret thing the
uulucky pigeon kuew he was uttacked
by at least twenty screaming sparrows,
who began pecking at him, and de
spite a brave resistance the sparrows
came off victorious and left a maugled
corpse on the field. Philadelphia

Elephant With Toothache.
It is not easy to tell when an ele
phant has got the toothache, but it is
best to keep out of his way when you
know it. A London surgeon, who has
been for many years in India, says he
would sooner risk a railroad accident
than meet an elephant with the tooth
ache. It appears that toothache affects an
elephant in a more severe manner than
it does any other animal. Elephants
have very sensitive nerves, and a
touch of toothache often brings ou
madness.
Providing you are able to chain
down an elephant and draw the offend
ing tooth, the brute is certain to be
affectionate to you afterward. Here
is au instance. An elephant in Ben
gal, India, became affected with the
toothache, but the keepers managed to
secure it while a dentist drew a de
cayed tooth the cause of the trouble.
After a time the elephant seemed to
understand that tho dentist was trying
to du souiuiiiiug for hid paiu, aud he
gave every evidence of appreciating
tho attention. When the operation
was over he frinked around the dentist
like a young lamb. Loudon Times.

Treatment For the llalr.
Sulphur soap is reeoniiuondod for
use in washing the hair. Many an
thorities say that gray hair is caused
by the loss of the pigment that gives
color to the filaments. Hince sulphur
enters largely into this pigment com
position, it is claimed that washiug
tne liair with sulphur soap will restore
the original color. Sulphur cream is
frequently rubbed into the scalp with
excellent etlect. lint the indiRcrimin
ate use of sulphur preparations should
be avoided, ami a physician or hair
specialist should be consulted before
going in for sulphur treatment.
lirusuing the hair too much is said
to be injurious and will cause it to fall
out. The hair is supposed to fall out
in the spring of the year, as birds shed
their feathers, and Nature generally
seems to undergo a moulting aud shed
ding process, preparatory to the en
ervating season of summer. As the
fully matured hair drops away the new
hair is already beginning to appear,
and too vigorous brushing will fre
quently dostroy it. ew York Tri

llcamy Sleep.
The wise woman who wants to rise
from sleep rested aud with her face
cast in the lines of beauty should sleep
on a narrow bed, so there will be no
room for her to distort her limbs by
tnrowing tuein into grotesque posi
tions. On this bed there should be a
good mattress aud one small rather
hard pillow. Tho bed clothing should
be of light weight, but warm, and the
room well vcutilated aud comfortably
cool. On this couch the would-be
beauty ehould lie flat on her back,
arms aud legs straight. To make a
change from the back she should learn
to sleep first on one side and then on
the other.
Perhaps you are young, but hints of
wriukles suddenly apptar, apparently
without any cause. Find out if you
do not squeeze your eyes tightly
together when going to sleep, as a
ihild does when it makes believe to
jleep. Many women draw the corners
f their mouths down, and so produce
furrows from the nose to the corner of
the mouth and down the side of the
chiu.
To get beauty sleep, go to bed think
ing of the pleasautest things that will
befull you. The eyelids should rest
dghtly over the eyes, as if a fluttering
breeze swecpiug across the faae would
blow them wide open. The lips should
meet easily, the mouth should never
be open. The Housewife.
An Emperor For a Guide.
I heard a pretty story tho other day,
writes William E. Curtis from Berlin,
of two American girls who visited the
paluco at Potsdam, Oermauy, and had
the unusual honor of being escorted
about the ugly old building by the Em
peror himself. It illustrates a trait in
his character that is uot often talked
about but is shown frequently. The
imperial palace is open to visitors only
when the Emperor and his family are
absent, but, without knowiug this fact,
the two American ladies made the
journey out there and were repulsed
by the usher at the door. They un
derstood very little Germau, and he
oould talk no English, but, with the
usual persistency of the American
tourist, they were trying to induce
him to admit them. While they were
in the midst of the controversy a gen
tleman in the uniform of a soldier
came rapidly up the steps, much to
the coufusiou of the doorkeeper, and,
addressing the ladies in English, asked
if he could be of any service to them.
They explained that they had come up
from Berlin to see the palace, aud
were very much disappointed because
they were not allowed to enter it.
"I think I can let you in," he ans
wered, "uud will show you around
myself."
So he escorted them through the
various rooms aud corridors aud ex
plained everything in a most enter
taining manner. Theu he followed
them out to the portico, where one of
them, who had a kodak, asked permis
sion to take his photograph. She
hadn't the slightest suspicion who he
was, but during tho hour they had
been together iu tho palace they had
laughed and joked familiarly, aud felt
very well acquainted. The Emperor
gracefully consented, aud posed for
three snap shots. Then he bade them
good morning, hoped tbey would en
joy their visit to Germany, saluted
them in the Germau way and re-entered
the palace.
The young ladies were delighted,
aud related their experience with great
gusto wheu they returned to their
boarding house. Thut afternoon they
took their kodak to a photographer to
have the films developed, aud when
they brought home the first prints of
tho haudsome officer their German
landlady exclaimed: "Gott iu himmel!
Der Kaiser!"
The young ladies, being sovereigns
iu their own country, were uot abashed
at the discovery, although tbeycaunot
uuderstaud why they did uot reoog
ui.e him. Nevertheless, they had a
print of each film handsomely mounted
and sent them to the Emperor with
their compliiueuts and the explanation
that they were uot aware of the iden
tity of their guide or they would have
niude a more formul acknowledgment
of the honor conferred upon them.

Borne ltoj-nl Titles.
Tho Kings and Queens of England
were uot always styled "His" or "Her
Majesty," or after the pattern of thnt
bestowed upon Victoria "Her Most
Gracious Majesty." Henry IV. was
styled "His tlraee;" Henry VI., "His
Most Excellent Grace;" Edward IV.,
"High and Mighty Prince;" Henry
VII., "His Grace, and His Majesty;'"
Henry VIII., "His Highness," and
afterward "His Majesty." Subse
quently the English Kings were styled
"His Bacred Majesty." While on the
subject it may not be uninteresting to
give tho meaning of some royal titles,
thus: King menus father; Kaiser and
Czar, Crcsar, or autocrat, a contrac
tion of Samodcrebeta. Duke means
lender; Emperor, commander; Hoa
podar, master of the house; Khan,
provincial chief; Landgrave, laud
reevo; Margrave, border reeve; Nizam,
ruler; Pharaoh, light of the world;

Hat That Went Crabbing.
Au inhabitant of the Scilly Islands
wns struck ly the fact that the rats
there seemed to prosper greatly,
although the place is very barren. He
resolved to investigate the cause of
this, and digging up some of the nests
by the seashore, found that the rats
had dragged crabs into their holes,
and, in order to prevent their escape,
had bitten off their legs. No doubt
the prey had been seized at low tide
and brought home, to be stored up
there by the original device just de
scribed. Der Stein uer Weisen.

THE TURN OF LIFE
Is the most important period In a wo
man's existence. Owing to modern
methods of living, not one woman in a
thousand approaches this perfectly
natural change without experiencing
a train of very annoying and some
times painful symptoms.
Thoso dreadful hot flashes, sending
tho blood surging to tho heart until it
seems ready to burst, and the faint
feeling thnt followa. sometimes with
chills, ua if tho
heart were go
ing to stop fur
good, are symp
toms of a dan
gerous nervous
trouble. Thoso
hot flashes are
just so
many calls
from n a- A, rl!
turo for " rf
help. Tho H V
St?)'
nerves are crying out for assistance.
The cry should be heeded in time. Lydia
E. Plnkham's Vegetable Compound
was prepared to meet the needs of
woman's system at this trying period
of her life.
The Vcgetablo Compound is an in
vigorating strengthener of tho female
organism. It builds up tho weakened
nervous system and enables a woman
to pasa that grand change trium
phantly. It does not seem necessary for us to
prove the honesty of our statements,
but It is a pleasure to publish sueh
jrratcful words as tho following :
I have been using Lydia K. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound for somo
time during the change of life and it
has been a saviour of Hfo unto me. I
can cheerfully recommend your medi
cine to all women, and I know it will
give permanent relief. I would bo
glad to relate my experienco to any
sufferer." Mrs. Dki.la Watson, 624
