Iho best way to learn about the derelop t of insects is to observe tho process for aeseli, says a writer in tho Country Gentle am. This can easily bo done in the case of one of our common butterflies, and it would. be difficult to name any simple study in nafc aral history of so much interest and instroa ton. It is best to begin with tho egg stage, ami, therefore, tho first thing to be dono is to find tho eggs of butterflies. They can usually easily bo found, by careful looking, attached to the under sides of the leaves of plants upon which larval butterflies feed. These larval butterflies arc commonly called "worms;" every ouo has noticed such sc aalled worms upon tho leaves of cabbage, tomato and milk-wced plants. If then, for axample, tho leaves of cabbage plants be carefully examined in early summer there will oe found upon them clusters of eggs destined' to hatch and develop into the com mon cabbago butterfly. The eggs arc oval In shape, of a yellow color, and have ridges running lengthwise, their appearance, as a whole, being somewhat like ears of yellow aorn. A leaf with eggs attached should be pulled ft and placed in a box with a glass cover, such a cover both admitting light and en abling tho observer to watch tho process of development. A wooden box, like a school Chalk-box, the sliding cover of which has teen replaced by a piecoof glass of like size, is a convenient form of box to use, but any tin or wooden box with a piece of window glass for cover will answer. The leaves of the cabbage-plant being thick aad hardy, they will probably not wither, if Kept in a shady place, until the eggs have Batched. Each egg produces a small green aad white worm. The went sboaldat ace be supplied with fresh cabbage leaves; it will be found to have no lack of appetite It grows with surprising rapidity, attaining within a week or tea days its full sise, an length an inch or inch and a half. ItaV taches itself along the edge of a leaf, aad, with its sharp-biting nwuth-parts, devours K bit by bit until it is entirely eaten, at speedily attacks another. Its body swollen by its constant gorging. The truth is that it is to pass into a resting condition, when it takes no food, and it must now im prove its time so as to gather strength ta last it in its period of abstinence. At the end of ten or twelve days the worm Is ready to pass into this resting stage what is called the pupa stage. At this time It will be seen to abandon its leaf and crawl about the box, somewhat eagerly, as if gsarching for something. This uneasy ac tivity may continue for some time, but final ly, as if having found a suitable place, it proceeds to spin a net or web, in which it may suspend itself during the approaching period of inactivity. This net is not a co coon, such as tho larva of some insects spin, but a slight web serving merely to suspend the pupa. Tho extreme appearance now ahaages. The bright green color becomes doM, and several rings into which the skin of the worm is thrown become less distinct, and finally It assumes tho characteristie pupa fomvan oblong, angular bciy, mora pointed at one end than the other. What has taken place is the molting of the skin, that is, tho skin is separated from the body aad becomes simply a firm, hard case fat which tho living insect is contained. lathis pupa stage now often called a chrysalis-it remains for tea or twelve days. Of coarse all the while important changes are gstagoa within; the energy stored up toiagits period of hungry activity now arras to carry oa those vital processes that saaaa the dull and seemingly lifeless papa sawiwi oy me spngavy, nandsome but tsrly. These changes affect the entire tructuro of the "mslt internal scarcely ess man external; we uiterny has a dif ferent nervous, digestive, -circulatory, ota, system than the larva, At last the batternyemcrges from the papa, the wall of the latter breaking away atone nd.prebably by tho growth and movements f the insects within. It is ono of our plain yellow buttcrfies; yet one can imagine that it has quite a triumphant bearing as it merges from its confinement It soon ex tends its wings, and after a few flutters, if allowed to cscspo, soars away. Such is an outline of tho development of insects, in which the metamorphosis is com-pleted-that is, insects which, besides the egg stago.pass thronoh three states, named successively, the larva, pupa and imago, or perfect insect But in many insects the transformation is ineomslete that ia to say, the metamorphosis is aot so marked the several states are not so distinct Take, for instance, the grasshopper. Ia this insect both the larva and pupa resem ble the perfect insect inlorm, walking and feeding in the same manner, and differing chiefly in the absenco a! wings, though evca too wings aro present, in rudimentary form, In tho pupa. And there arc groups of in. aflcts in which there is no metamorphosis at au. These are of the lower orders, and in clude the insects unfavorably known as lice. In these orders tho insect, when it emerges from the egg, is qoito like tho full grown specimen, excent in size. After alL the dcveloDment of the hnttrfl and the other insects of complete meta morphosis is no more wonderful than that of othor animals. The transformations through which tho insects pass are in no essential respects different from those through which other animals pass in their .development The chief difference is that in the insects these transformations take place after the egg-stage, while in many other animals as "the birds and most reptiles they take place within the egg. Ia the insects theenris very small, and there is not enough food matter contained initfor the growing em bryo. It therefore breaks through the egg, and is able to seek food for itself. But in the birds the egg is large, and has a supply or food suBcicnt for the nourishment of the embryo until it ha3 attained full structural development Hence it goes through its transformations within thojegg. In the in sect the development is icr'a time arrested, so that the larva con gather a supply of food, both for its immediate wants and for gaining a store of energy for tho nextstage initshte-history. In the birds and most other animals the development prooeecB without interruption until the young is brought forth. THE Grain-Saving, Time-Sav-ing, Money-Saving Thresher of this day and age.

The new abbess is only eighteen years old and she enjoyed the ceremony of retiring; ironi the world. She was robed in buck, with an ennino mantle, and the ring and in aignia of her rank were turned over to her with any amount of pomp and cereawny. If she gets tired of seclusion there will be chance to change her mind, as the roles ex this convent are not of the strictest. It was founded under Maria Theresa as a re treat for noble unmarried ladies, and they can go away if they get tired, or see a pros pective husband who pleases them.
