I Meal flies multiply much faster; and it bus been said that thu uffspting of a single fly of this kind would' eat up s dead elephant in less lime than a pair of lions could accomplish the same The fly's eggs burst open in a few duys. No little fly creeps out of the (hull, but a maggot. The general name, hnwevsr, for all worm-like off spring of insects' (ggs is larva. Caterpillars are the larva of butterflies, and grubs of beetles. 1 meets do almost all tbeir eating in the larva state, and gruw with wonderful rapidity. • Larva consists of thirteen or fourteen rings Some bsve legs ol two kinds, some of bat one, others none. The maggot of the house fly has Done. It looks Uke the tail of a worm cut off, wilh n pair of eyes and a pair of jaws sat upon the square-cut end The jaws are uever idle, and for n few days it does nothing but ea< an ' grow. It grows while you witch it, snd in mncb loss than a day It may doable ita weight. When .R has become nearly half an inch long it stops esting and growing. And now a strange change comes on. The white skin becomes brown, bird and dry. The'erentnre shortens till it becomes of the size and abnpe of grain ol rice In- its lirown husk. Of course the little power of motion that the maggot bad is gone. Tbt larva has become a papa. A ehrytalit is the papa of soma tnsact. Tha change from /a, en to paps often takes place within a covering span by tha larva; this covering ia a cueuoa. Bat within ths hard, I if- lets shall of , tha pupa a still more wonderful change is . going on. Jointed legs and delicate wisp ara growing there. The jaws give plaea le a proboscis or tocher.
