Butterfly Days The other day we journeyed out ' into the country. ; We were surprised at seeing thousands of beautiful butterflies reveling In the warm summer air and the sun. They wing their way in fantastic course through the air. The Ohio State Journal commenting on the little knowledge most of us have of these beautiful insects says: "Most people do not know the names of even the commoner butterflies, excepting as the white, the yellow or the black butterfly, but each one has a name, a common one as well as a scientific orie, and each butterfly has characteristics and habits and a life history, the knowledge of which adds much to. the pleasure of their presence. There is the common white or cabbage butterfly, so called because, in the caterpillar stage it is so ) destructive to cabbages. The -yellows, or sulpfcurs, the "puddle butterflies," which congrei gate in swarms about roadside puddles, the clov- : er feeders. The big, handsome, dark-orange but- ' terfly with the black stripes is called the monarch, and belongs to the family of milkweed

buttenlies, wnich leed upon that plant. There ( are two gorgeous, iridescent, black and blue but- " terf lies very common at present, one with a swal

low law ana one wunout. ine iormer is known ; as the spice-bush swallow tail on account of its fnndness far this hush. nnrl thp latter ia rolled th

red-spotted purple for obvious reasons. Rarely a day passes but one sees numbers of these butterflies, and many others too numerous to name, one

". sides the hundreds of little skippers one sees but : never notices."

' " Enjoying the Country Urban dwellers are accused of sticking very closely to the cities and of seldom going out into the country on hot days to spend the day under the trees and by the side of running water. We

shared this erroneous opinion until last Sunday when we took a jaunt into the country to enjoy a picnic dinner. What was our surprise when we found that dozens of places adapted for picnic purposes were occupied, compelling us to drive many miles before we found a suitable spot. Three and four parties had taken possession of each beautiful spot near Richmond. Fathers and mothers, boys and girls were having a good time under the trees and along the banks of the creeks. It is a healthy indication when hundreds of citizens of Richmond forsake the monotony of paved streets and cement sidewalks to seek recreation out in the country. A day spent out in the countrywill refresh the tired muscles and jaded brains. -'

Heroic Physicians The life of a physician is a hard one at its best. He is subject to the call of patients at all times of the day and night. Regularity in meals is unknown to the average practitioner of Richmond. These men perform service for the community ; gladly and without grumbling. The standing of this profession in a community always has been a high one. The United States Public Health Service recently called attention to the heroic service some of the members of this profession have given to humanity. Commenting on the work of Daniel Major, a recent bulletin says: - "It is a remarkable fact, confirmed by many observations, that many physicians who have devoted considerable labor to the study of a particular disease have themselves died of that disease. One of the most interesting examples is that of John Daniel Major, born August 16, 1634, in Breslau, a physician and naturalist of no mean ability. Bitten early by the wanderlust, he studied at Wittenburg, took courses at many of the schools in Germany, and finally went to Italy where he received the degree of doctor of medicine at Padua in 1660. Returning to his own country, he resided for a short time in Silesia, and in 1661 married at Wittenburg, Margaret Dorothy, a daughter of the celebrated Sennert. The following year, his young wife was stricken with plague and died after an illness of eight days. Distracted by his loss, Major wandered up and down Europe studying plague wherever he found it in the hope that he might discover a cure for the disease which had bereaved him. Spain, Germany, France and Russia were visited by him. He settled in 1665 in Kiel, where he was made professor of botany and the director of the botanical gardens. He made frequent voyages, however, always in quest of the remedy for plague. Finally in 1693, he was called to Stockholm to treat the queen of Charles the Eleventh, then ill with plague. But before he could render her any service, he contracted the disease and died on the third of August."

The Iron Claw

Read the Story In the Palladium an4 ti. T at h Dalaoal

--N maniey couid hear the crash of glass as the damper plane at the nose of the quivering chassis brought up short against one of the tower windows. He was dimly aware of half-tumbling and half-climbing through a network of wooden stuts and steel piano-wire stays and cross-guys. He was vaguely conscious of Evart calling out that everything was all right, that there was no damage which a half-hour's work couldn't patch up. But Maniey, In truth, was thinking little of either Evart or his flier. All his thoughts, as he climbed frantically up through the broken tower window, were revolving about the problem as to whether or not he was too late. And that all-vital question still obsessed him as he mounted the iron treads of the stairway leading to the tower top, panting up flight after flight until his lungs seemed bursting for want of air, and his over-driven heart beat drumlike against his rib-cage.

And as he reached the top and flung out through the narrow door opening on the campanile-like balcony crown

ing that skyBcraplng structure, he

knew, even as he saw two figures standing there before him, that he was too late. That much he knew, even before he caught at enough breath to call out a warning to Enoch Golden or .swing about and spring for the second figure, already shrinking back in the shadow of that many-columned cupola. For in the hand of the second figure Maniey had already caught sight of a tell-tale shoot of paper. It was a yellowed and time-worn scrap of paper, and little more, but to Manlcy it had become the emblem and pennon of a desperate cause, a flag to be rallied round and fought for, to the last ditch and the last gasp, as harried soldiers fight through the smoke of battle for their colors. And Maniey, as he clinched with Legar's stalwart emissary, fought for it Nor was his opponent one to be despised. The two men fought along the crest of that midnight tower as two mountain lions might fight along the brink of an Andean precipice. They fought with gasps and grunts, with strange guttural sounds, with teeth bared and face distorted, blind to the blows that were given and taken, unconscious of the fact that the very paper for which they were fighting had already fallen to the cupola floor, and from there had been blown by the north wind to the furthermost edge of the cornice circling the stone column supports. '

jfor that paper when Legar's confed4rata caurht sferht of It. broke from

Manley's grasp and dove bodily for where it lay. MsrJey, a second later,

toiicNCea mm. There, nalt astride tha balustrade, of, coppered wood painted to look like marble, the fight was renewed. , Each crouched low as he fought, drunkenly conscious now of the abyss that yawned so close to his feet. But still they fought Then a second breath of night breeze, sighing through the tower top, carried the paper slowly along the cornice edge. It was Legar's man who saw It as It moved. He wrenched away, twisted about, and caught at It as It fell. But already he was too late. It lifted with the wind, drifted and eddied slowly about in the moonlight, and floated swayingly down into the darker canyon of Broadway, where It was soon lost to sight But neither Maniey nor his enemy saw that descent, for Legar's man as he lurched suddenly forward threw all his weight on the outstanding copper cornice, painted white to look like marble. And It was a cornice made only for ornamentation, and not for support. For . its fastenings surrendered to the strain of that suddenlyimposed weight and the buckling segment of copper swayed outward as the desperately-clinging fingers clutched at its edges. Maniey, hanging to the balustrade with one arm, reached out to grasp that buckling strip of metal to which a helpless man was hanging sheer over space. He caught at it, even as Golden caught at his straining shoulders to hold him steady. 'But a law, stronger than the will of man, seemed to suck the metal slowly, inevitably, out of the clutch of his tired fingers. Then the last fastenings gaVe, the strained and twisted sheetmetal tore slowly sway, and the black shadow of a man feU like a plummet to the iron and stone of Broadway, three hundred feet below.

Sisters"

The girl did not flinch, although ! her Hps seemed to stiffen, as 6he repeated: "John Redfield U he a friend of yours?" ."Yes, he is," asserted Delaine. "A few days ago I heard that he was paying you attention. I know this is not so. Can you tell me how the story originated?" "How should I , know?" faltered Caryl, her eyes falling before his keen gaze. "As you are the person whose name is connected with his I though you might be able to solve the mystery. I think you can, if you will." "Why?" asked the girl," Then the look of defiance in her eyes changed to a hard gleam. "Why?" she repeated, and Delaine saw that her temper was coming to her aid. "I am in your employ for a certain number of hours a day. Have you any right to my time after that?" "Absolutely none," the man rejoined calmly. "It is not only you that I was considering in interrogating you, though 1 acknowledge that I think it Is the duty of any man to protect the girl in his employ, if he can do so unless she resents his interest in her as you evidently resent mine." "If I resent it why do you pry into this matter? It concerns me, and me only." "I beg your pardon," Delaine corrected, "it concerns others than yourself. But, before we go into that, I would ask you please to regard me as a friend for a few moments, and believe that I would like to save you from the consequences of your mistakes mistakes of ignorance, I . am sure, and not of any evil intention." "I am not aware that I have made any mistakes," Caryl objected. "Moreover, neither you nor anyone else knows my business what I have done or left undone." "Some people know what you have said, though," Delaine remarked slowly. Something in his tone made the girl look at him searchingly. "What do you mean?" she demanded. "I mean that you have said that you have been receiving attention from John Redfield." Caryl sprang to her feet in an outburst of rage. "Ah!" she exclaimed, "so Julia has been talking to you, has she?" "Did you not give her permission to mention Redfield to me?" asked Delaine. "I understood her to say so." "Yes, I did," acknowledged Caryl wrathfully, "because I knew that she would take your word rather than mine. But" with a stamp of her foot "what business is all this of yours? What right have you to meddle in this matter?" "If you will sit down and listen quietly, Miss Marvin, I will talk frankly to you, " Delaine said. And, as she dropped down upon the. divan again, he continued. "I have the right

man's face and manner, and even the excited and heedless girl was impressed by it. "Unfortunately," he said, "that is all. Since you in spite of your carelessness of her wishes must love your sister, I will tell you what I have told nobody else. I love your sister more than I have loved any other human being. I am not fit to be her servant, but I am going to ask her to marry me." To Be Continued.
