THE ENTOMOLOGIST’S WEEKLY INTELLIGENCER. 
1 14 
years the stream of larvae will be on a 
crescendo scale we have no doubt that 
an active worker might earn from £30 
to £50 a. year by the portrait-painting 
of larvae. But we must premise that 
those individuals who are afflicted with 
the bump of unpunctuality had better 
not reply to this appeal, for when 
Mrs. Gamp said, “ I can’t abear to wait, 
I do assure you. To wotever place I 
goes, I sticks to this one mortar, 4 I’m 
easy pleased ; it is but little as I wants, 
but I must have that little of the best, 
and to the minnit when the clock 
strikes, else we do not part as I could 
wish, but bearin’ malice in our arts,’” 
she showed forth as graphically as her 
peculiar style of diction would permit 
the virtues of punctuality, and the in- 
conveniences attendant on a contrary 
habit.

This little Geometra was ever a favourite 
of ours: at the end of June and begin- 
ning of July we used to like to start it 
from its retreat amongst the meadow- 
sweet and other plants which fringed 
the edge of a little stream. The larva 
feeding on several species of Rwmex, 
Polygonum, and other moisture-loving 
plants, reveals the partiality of the per- 
fect insect for the sides of ditches and 
streams. It was rather common in 
Burnt-Ash Lane a fortnight ago: strag- 
glers may perhaps still be met with by 
those in want of it.
