with no clothes at all on the parts OF the
body which most need protection. Bare
legs, bare neck, bare arms, girted mid
dies, with an inverted umbrella to collect
the air, and chill the other parts of the
body. A stout, strong man goes oat in a
cold day with gloves aud oyercoat, wool

would disable the nurse, Kill tho mother

TO a mode of dress which they are never

to exposure which dozen years later
would be downright foolery. To rear
children thus for the slaughter pen, and
then lay it TO the Lcrd, is decidedly too

rvrun iIou.a At Home for October
The ,Sir,h Sense.

II has been suspected by students Of
natural history tha. some oI tho inferior
animals not only have the five senses com,
mon - the human race, often active 70 4
degree unaltainsblc by man, but possess
others of which VIC have no experience. or
course il is impossible for US to conceive of
these unknown senses as for man blind
from his birth 10 acquire true idea Of
licht,or deaf mute 10 form Alright con
ccption of music.
Naturalists tell us. for instance, thatrs
yens, which feed upon no1ious and decay
ING substances, "obtain intimation of the
existence of such objects ly means ofsomc
faculty of which we have little conception.
Sicht il cannot be, and we know of no
fetor escaping from an animal previous 10
puirescence, SO subtitle rs To call these
scavengers OF nature from the extremity
Of one country to that OF another; for IL
is manifest from the height they preserve
in their flight, and the haste they are max
ing, that their departure has been from
some far distant station, having a remote
and urgent object in contemplation"
Nor can We readily comprehend by
what means snai!s and slugs discover that
the maturity Of fruit approaches. Before
color on smell has revealed to human OBJ
servers that the plum is ripe. these slow
and shiny animals have made their long
and gradual journey TO the precise spot
endued with what faculty for the purpose
Of discerning their food from afar. We can-
not conceive.
And still more wonderful is the instinct
or sense by which the male Of certain
rare insects finds its female Ny children
found large crysalis one day. and placed
it under common glass tumblsr in their
playroonl. hoping to see the butterfly
emerge fromit But after watching fruit
lessly for many days. they almost forgot
the thing, and, childlike. went in search
of new specimens. One day. however,
they came running to me eXciaiming,
