Increase of Insect Life

Increase of Insect Life.—Who knows but that the increase of insect life, which in many localities of earth amounts to a veritable scourge, or plague, is not a righteous judgment upon man for the destruction of bird life, to lay at the shrine of the fickle, cruel goddess, Fashion. Savage, semi-savage, barbarous, and civilized people more than all, are destroying the beautiful feathered songsters of God in order to obtain feathers and plumage to bedeck their forms. And yet these beautiful birds were their best friends in the destruction of insect life. Man reaps what he sows.
