How AN OWLS HEAD REvoLvEs.-
A writer who had read a story about an
owl wringing his neck of by looking at
a man who was walking around him,
tested the matter by experiment. lie
obtained a specimen and placed it on
top of a post. 1T was not difficult,
saws the writer 'to secure his attention,
for be never diverted his gaze from me
while | was in bis presence. l began
walking rapidly around the post atew
feet from it, keeping my eyes fixed up
ON him all the while. His body re-
mained motionless. but bis head turned
exactly with my movements. When |
was half way round his kead was direct
" behind hun. Three quarters OF a
circle were completed, and the same
stare followed. One circle and no
change. On l went, twice around and
still that watchiul stare and steady turn
of the head. On went, three rounds
and | began really to wonder why the
head did not drop off, when all at once
[ discovered what l had failed 10 notice
before. When 1 reached halt way
around his head with comfort, he
whiske9 it ack through the whole
circle so instantaneously, and brought
1t facing me again with such precision,
that l failed TO detect the movement,al'
though l was looking intentll al! the
time.
