The moths begin laying their eggs soon after their flight Is commenced, and the larvae hatch in the early part of August.

WHAT BECAME OF THE BUTTON Naive Confession of Little Girl Proved Her to Be True Daughter of Eve. Lole Fuller, the noted dancer, told at a luncheon a story about her class of dancing children. "I gave the children a Christmas party last year," she said, "and when the pudding came on I said to them: " 'I have put in this pudding a coin, a little chlua doll and a button. Whoever gets the coin will be rich. Whoever gets the doll will be married before the year is out. Cut whoever gets the button will be an old maid.' "Well, the pudding disappeared and the little girls soon found the coin and the china doll. But the button did not turn up. No one got the button. This amazed me. "That night I euid to my favorite little girl, as we aat alone by the fire In my room: " 'I can't understand what became of that button. I put It In the pudding rap-Idl- y, . myself.'
