BEETLE DIQ3 QnAVE8.

The gravcdlgger beetle was the sub

n a student of
D, ? ""?!.,.
ject of nn Interesting
a young rhlladelplilan
the Ulologicnl department of the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, recently con
ducted. Bays tbe Philadelphia Ilecord.
He secured four healthy gravedlgger
beetles and put them In a wooden box
filled wllb earth, along with n very
siimll dead spnrfrow. The beetles no
sooner perceived the bird than they
began to dig alongside of It I or four
hours they dug, and at the end or mat one to jeiay wt)en there are such per
time they had a bole made that was (ect places as the establishment of
six or seven Inches deep and three . vyiae Brothers at hand.
Inches square.
Now they went around to the other
side of the sparrow and gave, all to
gether, a good, strong push. Tho bird
dropped Into tbe grave nicely and the
beetles covered It over with loosu soli.
The young experimenter kept tbe
beetles for n month. During the month
they burled Ave birds, three grasshop
pers, two butterflies and a young
mouse. Their box came to resemble a
cemetery.
Why are these beetles gravedlg-
gecs? WbaHs their motive?"
To this question, which was put to
him by many visitors, the student
would reply:
(raredlgglng Is their way of prop-
ngating their species. They get hold
of some llttlo dead thing, dig a hole
beside It, lay their eggs In Its flesh nnd
bury It. The eggs, after a time, hatch
Into larvae. These larvae must de
velop under ground, aud during their
development they must cat. Well,
thanks to their thoughtful parents.
they are born in tho midst of food
they have on all sides of them the car
rion In which, as eggs, they wero laid
and burled and thus tbey food boun
tifully, and grow big and strong, so
that on their emergence from tbe soil
they are beetles to be proud Of, Aud
ns soon as they emerge they become
grave-diggers In their turn.

Mr. Bllhy's children, the youngest
nine and the eldest fourteen years of
ago, besought bis permission to' raise
bantam chickens, pleading that there
was plenty of room In the barn for that
purpose.
"You have bothered me a long time
about thnt," he said. "Now I'll agree to
let you do It on condition that you quit
calling your parents papa and inaninin.
You are old enough now to begin can
Ing us father and mother, ns you
should. If you will do that, you may
fro ahead and turn the baru luto a
chicken house."
They gave the promise readily enough;
but It was harder to keep than they had
foreseen.
The next day, whllo a neighbor was
calling ou Mr, Bllby, tbe children came
rusbtng from the barn Into tho bouse,
"Pnnn." they exclaimed, "come out
nnd "
"Chickens!" ha Interrupted.
"Yes, we've got 'em, papa "
