Children do not respect their parents for this trait, huw- ever handy it may bz for them at times. The course that runs between luspl- clon and llibility is sound.

HIS lady is quite a traveler— not first class, however, as she goes steerage in a bale of hay. While she is jaunting from country to country she is gen- crally in the chrysalis stage. Rather portly-looking, tapering toward the ab- domen and swinging from a silken cord attached to a button cn her body. She | is an inch long, pale green and dec- orated with spots of gold. The name milkweed comes from the fact that they live upon the various milkweed plants. This is their protec- tion. They are known as “protected” for the simple reason that the rank milkweed is too objectionable for the seeker of food among the caterpillars. In the caterpillar stage they are a bright yellow or a greenish yellow, with a sash of glossy black. Threadlike streamers from head and abdomen tip make a very festive-looking creature. ‘The mother butterfly is rather large. The forewings are long and have a tri- angular outline. The outer edge is as long as the inner margin. The hind- wings are well rounded. The head is large and the antennae are inserted on top of her head. The abdomen is stout. Father Milkweed has much shorter forelegs than his wife. The hind legs of both parents are supplied with claws. ‘The parents die soon after the mar- riage. It l.l believed that the children born late in the Fall go South for the ‘Winter. The cold weather is too much for them, if it arrives when they are grown up.

This Summer & few woman drivers have boasted that they have eschewed mlunnce for the first time this year and they are cutting down on automo- bile costs. We always ask them, “What would you do in case of an accident?” None has proffered a unsluwry an- swer, and it would be interesting to know if there is one. The cost of the average insurance policy is less than a lawyer’s fee in an accident case. It is a matter of ucm that the average woman car owner or drlve'r is not in a position to "urry motorists have d nhulty to pay for the damage they have caused.
