Tlie lK-auty theao little, scaly winded creatures does not end with wha wo see with the unaided eye, but (be) nrfcniK-oiic- lHwii ps 'that what nppcurs llko ilust on the wings of but terllies and moths Is really composed of uiinuto scales of sa delicate syni nictry as to uiako one wonder anew at the perfection of nature's handiwork. And this Is. not all, for these little. feathery scales seen through the mi croscope aw sufficient to identify the species of Mia insect from which they. wero taken. Those settles are what Ifive color to the wlngx. They are fas tened t them by short stems and ad' here to the fingers wl.en we seise one of flio Insects by the wings. The au thor was onro examining somo water from a stagnant poet when suddenly there cauio into sight one of these scales, 'which he Immediately rccog nizc4'ns nil In, from tho wing of a hawS niotU. Ho called to a lud who bad been a renlous asalstant and who had only a few days before clapped bis bauds, lu excitement on viewing for tho first time tho scales of this insect and of two other species which be bad captured and brought In to show bis prowetm. The lad, not knowing what he Hhould see, looked through tho in strument for a moment, then glanced up lit the author and exclaimed: "Oh! ltiil tlint pretty hawk moth Imtho iu that tjllliy wiiler?" As thine seuly winged Insects all pnsrt tliroiiKh aTiont the same changes lii their development from the egg to the iiei feet iuseet, a description of the 'inctanVorvlHisiri of ono sini-tes will lie diillieient for tlie piirpoxc of this short article.' We will take for our illiiHtra tio.i the hawk moth, sometimes called the. humming bird moth from lis re seiuhUiiice lo Unit tuirylike little crea tine when it Is (iroliiiig a tlower for liuiiey. It is ulxo Sometimes called the five, Knotted sphinx."" , i i'siu 'liiie day after the cold spring weather has pasmil tlie mother moth searches out. a potato or a tomato plant, for the leaves of one of these planiH furnished her with food when slie was ouly a baby worm, and she instinctively places liec eggs on one of them that her children may find plenty of iioiiriHhhig food ready for tliem when a few days later tliey shall emerge from tlie tiny eggs. Should the Tvathor lo warm and pleasant the leaf will be swarming with a hun dred or more llltle wriggling, worm like larvie within a week or teu days, nil of them eating, eating, eating, as though that were their only mission in life. In fact, this seems to lie their only mission for tho following three or four weeks, as they eat almut twice their own weight daily, nnd In a few weeks they I "come great green potato worms from three four Inches long, each weighing about 2,00) times an much as when. It left the egg. It does stop eating, linwcvir, every few duys when It luis grown so Uirge that lis skin will net hold more. At such times It rests for awhile. Its skin turns to a grayish color, nnd It seems to be getting prematurely old. Then it bows its back, swells out each ring In the middle part of Its lnxly and bursts the skin open along the back. Now, with a little strnggle, It draws out Its bead and a moment later Its tail from the old skin nnd emerges In a bright new sirit The author once saw a caterpil lar go through the whole of this molt ing process In a little less than two minutes. Caterpillars shed their skins In this way four or five times before they have attained their full s'xo. Theyvure now thrc? or four inches lung, and as they are full of rich juices tlicy are often chosen by the ichneumon dies ss a Ot place la which to deposit tbelr eggs so that when they hatch the yonng grubs wilt be snr MraJed by aa abundance of food. Whim the caterpillar of the hawk A .-. ... Vi is tht Medium of Specially giX Prominent Instructors V!;t moth has shed" Its skin for the last time and again gorged Itself with food toward tho close of summer. It crawls down from tho plant on which It has been feeding uud buries Itself lu the ground, where the skin thickens and hardens and changes to a brownish col or, and a long tube grows and bends over so aa to resemblo the handle of a pitcher. In this pupa state the cater pillar remains until spring, when bursts from Ita wrappings and comes out of tho ground a beuutiful moth, ready to repeat the strange life of Its ancestors. The Jug handle of the pupa contains the future- moth's tubular tongue, which It keeps colled up like tho hairspring of a watch except when t uses It to probe for houey hi the deep corolla of tome flower while still on the wing, like a humming bird. This tongue, or proboscis, is often five or alz inches long. - Wonderful are the changes wrought In tho caterpillar whllo It Ilea buried from our sight In Mother 'Earth. The mouth, with strong Jaws, working hoc Izontally for the mastication of vege table food, must be changed to a suc torial mouth, fitted to suck up tho nec tar of the flowers, and the remainder of the digestive apparatus must be changed to digest the new kind of food. Ten of the sixteen lega of the caterpillar must be absorbed, leaving ouly the six true legs of the perfect in sect To the system of air tubes open ing through little mouths along each side of the body to supply the neces sary air for the . caterpillar must be added four or five aacklike lungs In different porta of the body. The wings must be formed and strong muscles developed to move them in flight Tho wbolo nervous system must be remodeled to suit the needs of the mnturo animal which la much higher iu the scale of life than Is the caterpillar, and two largo- compound eyes, with hundreds of facets and lenses, must bo formed, for the cater pillar has only six simple eyes, or ocelli. - All of the caterpillars are the larva? of either butterflies or moths, and all are worm llko in form, so much so that most of them are often mistaken for worms. Nearly all of them have two or mora pairs of Jaws, which work horizontally instead of vertically, like thoso of higher animals, and some of thorn have a gizzard with teeth for still further grinding food. Nearly all nre vegetable feeders," and some of them do much daniagd to growing crops. The common caukerworm, for example, destroys many of our cur rant blossoms and the foliage buds of many of our cultivated trees. You often see it hanging by a silken thread of its own spinning from the apple. plum, cherry or other fruit trees. It Is one of the many measuring worms Which children tuko delight In watch ing. ' : . The cutworm Is the caterpillar of a pretty little owlet moth' and does much damago to our gardens by cutting down tho tender cucumber, squash and tomato plants, and it sometimes de stroys whole fields of beans, cabbages, imlatoes ami. other vegetables. Tlie army worm, cotton" worm and apple worm are also very destructive, and these are all caterpillars. The clothes moth deposit its eggs in fur, wood, feathers, etc., nnd the little caterpillar appears In from five to ten days anil begins to feed, constructing a jxirtable cylindrical case of tlie wool or fnr njion which it is feeding. It leaves this tube open and lines It with silk spun from Its own body. As it in creases In size it enlarges it portable bouse by splitting the tube and Insert ing a gore first at one end and then at tho other. It Is very destructive to clothing, furs, etc., for It thrusts Its head out of ono end of the tube and cats as rarcnously as Its vegetarian relatives. - While most of the Insects of this order are destructive to a greater or less extent of that which la useful to men, one of them, the silkworm, pro duces the material for a fabric which adds millions of dollars annually to the wealth of tho world. The Ilombyi mort, the species which furnishes the larger part of the silk of commerce. Is a native of China and Is now essential ly a domestic nnlmal. For centuries tho Chlnc-io government jealously guarded litis insect lent foreigners should pu. l ,ln their sicret obtain some of tht- ilknornia and be thereby enable! to produce their own silk.

From these tho silk culture- of southern Europe grew to Ie of great commer cial Importance within a few years. The silkworm In Its mature stste is a clumy moth, with a body much larger In proportion to the sise of the wings than the bodies of other moths.

Governor Chamberlain is represent ed as thinking the democratic can didate for congress from this district has a good show for election.because large numliers of republicans want Miff revision. We much - doubt the numerical magnitude of republicans who are Insistant upon a general revision of tartir. The clamor this Is mainly raised by academic editors, college professor, tariff lor-revenue and 'free trade democrats. Clamor, noise, per sistent wailing rather than numerical strength are the indices which ex press the value of this demand for titriff revision. Surely the Governor knows that of all the multitude of things uikio which his party has merited public distrust none is better, understood and more odious than lis professions of tariff reform. When by ita loud advocacy of this his party slipped In to power it enacted a tariff so unfair, so Iniquitous that a democratic pres ident refused to sign it. The tariff ill be given all needed revision in due season, but not by free-traders. Apart from all this the people of this district see that the republican trty has enacted greatly advanced measures for the regulation and con trol of trusts and umrers. ' They see their president and the attorney -gen eral enforcing those measures with out, fear or favor. Open, fair, free competion must reign over the trans portation business of the whole country. This Is of much greater interest and benefit to the producers to the farmer, the lumberman, the stock raiser, than any possible tariff reform. - The people of this district will not rebuke the administration" by adding strength to the negative, obstructive party in congress, but rather strengthen the president's hands by electing a representative known to be in harmony with his purposes. Republicans will not be deluded by democratic sophistry. Corvsllls Gazette. " Warrant every battle. If troubled with rheumatism give Chamberlain's Pain Balm a trial.

Another extensive cave, aa exten sive perhaps as "The Great Oregon Caves" of Grsyback Mountain, has been discovered Lu Jnsrrhir.e er"- The discovery wss made this week by Roy Bunion and Guy Weatherby on upper Deer creek.. Tlie two boys live in that district arid were out honting, discovering the labyrinths only by accident. They only explor ed the caves In part and believe them to be of great depth and extent. The location of the new caves la ust over the divide from Jenny creek. The entrance to the labyrinth was almost completely bidden by chinka pin brush and other undergrowth and it was by accident it. was discov ered. Entering .the two hunters found it led back into the gloomy depths of the mountain. They returned to their camp, procured candies and lanterns and again enter ed the caves. This time they went back for 150 feet or more. They could have proceeded farther but owing to the intricate number of tunnels, passages, chambers, and rooms, tbey were afraid of becoming entangled and deemed it best to go no farther will out having a wire or string to guide them back to the entrance. . - . , The formation of the caves through out is limestone. The walls, the ceil' ings. the supporting columns of the celling, are all of limestone. StaUc titis hang pendant ft out overhead, and in the little pools of water that cover the floor are floral growths of limestone like coral and of the most delicate shades of pink and blue one ever seen. It seems remarkable such beautiful growths as these could foriq with their matchless coloring in the black depths of the labyrinths. Specimens of these were shown a representative of the Observer who made Jenny crtvk a visit the first of the week. Deep, bottomless wells or some of them apparently . bottomless are found numerously in the several chambers of the caves. The explorer stooped and gar.ed down into these but saw no bottom. They dropped stones into them and the pebbles were heard to rattle and strike tho walls for many - seconds before it splashed into the water at the bottom. A strong current of air pa&ses through the caves, making it difficult to keep a candle burning, and giving assurance of a corresponding entrance on the opposite side of the mountain. There Is a constant drip and trickle and distant rumble and roar of water in the caves, making the work of exploring them gruesome. It U like visiting the slimy palace of his satanlc majesty ' and the explorer can easily see the devil's imps flitting and scampering here and there atrldf-t the dark recesres of the laby rinth, .as he stands with uplifted torch and views the scene presented. Scattering over tho ' floor in gross Irregularity are limestone bonlders of all sixes and shapes, strewn in confusion, as If his satsnic naijeaty bad In days gone by held high earn! vl, but frightened suddenly departed In dire haste.
