Natural Fly Cages,

In describing certain "Queer Flow
ers,' in the Popular Science Monthly
Grant Allen mentions several which
temporarily detain the flies that enter
them. One of the most remarkable of
these is the wild arum, or cuckoo, pint,
a flower allied to the Gala: This
familiar big spring flower eXlales a
disagreeab.e, heshy odor, which, by its
meat-like flavor, attracts tiny midge
with beautiful irridescent wings and
very poetical name, P$ychod0. AS in
most other cases where flies are specially
invited, the color of the cuckoo-pint is
usually q dull and somewhat liyid
purple. a Ialisadc of hairs closes the
neck of the funncl-shapcd blossom,
and repeats the lobster-pot tactics of
the entirely unconnectcd South
European birchwort. The little flies,
entering by this narrow and stockaded
door, fertilize the future red berries
with pollen brought from their last
prison, and are then rewarded for their
pains by tiny drop of honey, which
Slowly oozes from the middle of each
embryo fruit as soon as it is duly i'm
pregnated. Afterwarl, the pollen is
shed upon their backs by the bursting
of the pollen-bags; the hairs wither
up, and open the previously barricaded
exit, and the midges issue forth in
search Of new prison and Il second
drop of honey. This is all strange
enough; but stranger still, strongly
suspect the arum of deliberately
hocusing its nectar. | have often seen
dozens of these tiny flies rolling
together in in advanced stage of
apparent intoXication upon the pollen
covered floor Of an arum chamber; and
the evidences cf drunkenness are so
clear and numerous that | incline to
believe the plant actually makes them
dunk in order to insure their staggor-
ing about in the pollen and carryinga
good supply of it to the next blossom
visited. 1t is curious fact that these
two totally unrelated plants (birchwort
and arum) should have hit upon the
very same device to attract insects of
the same class (though not the same
Species The trap must have been
independently developed in the two
cases, and coull only have succeeded
with such very stupid, unin.clligent
creatures as tho (ies and midges."

Yellowstone National Park.

The impression left on the mind Of
ninety-lve out of every hundred vsi-
tors will be, that The park is a great,
gloomy and somewhat dcsolate region
IA sort Of weird volcanic wilderness.
Apart from the grand canon Of the
Yellowstone, and the great falls, there
is little Of the majestically beautiful
there-the boiling springs, the mud
VOLCANOES, the geysers and the hot sui
phur pits belong rather to the realm Of
the supernatural, the phenomenal.
The one will arouse an ecstacy of de-
light in the beautiful; the other ava
kens only the sense Of the terrible, a
horrible admiration. Tho mountain
scenery is little If anything superior
to that Of the White Mountains, for
though these peaks are 1000 to 5000
feet higher, above sea level, than the
great New Hampshire peaks, it is to be
remembered that the mountains in the
park spring from a table-land already
6,000 to 1000 feet above the New
Hampshire level.
But leaving out, therefore, the
mountains, rivers, lakes and valleys,
as not entitled to pre-eminent attcn-
tion there is more than enough left to
justify the title of "wonderland,"
which has been applied to the Yellow
stone country. There are gloomier
and deeper canons than the grand
canon of the Yellowstone; but therei is
none that can approach it in the fan
tastic structure Of its cliffs and pima
cles and towers, or the brilliancy and
variety, yet harmonious beauty, of the
col0rs that adorn the walls and tur-
rets. There are great geysers and hot
springs of Iceland and New Zealand;
but the geysers and hot springs Of the
Yellowstone surpass them in volume,
power and variety Of action as well as
il beauty of form AMI color
Add to these the great cliffs Of gilt
tcring obsidian, the varicolored boiling
mud-springs, innumerable lovely cas-
cadcs, three or four minor canons, each
more than thousand feet deep, fos-
silized forest where the trees have been
transformed into agate, mountains and
pits and springs of sulphur and soda, q
river of scalding water, natural
bridges, eroded towers and goblin fig
ureS, and it may be fairly assumed
that this is the most weird and Won
derful region Of the globe.

The LOcOmOtiOn of Shells.

The great conch, or strombus, has a
vertable Swo'd that it thrusts out,
sticks into the ground, and by a mus
cular effort jerks itself along, making
a decided leap. The sqaids, that are
the brightest forms of mollusks, leap
entirely clear of the water. often
several feet. They me the ink bearers
and from their ink bags comes the
sepia used by artists, while their bone
is the cutie fish bone Of commerce.
Many of the cookies have method Of
flying through the water that is quite
novel. They are generally beautifully
colored, and have long, streaming tenta-
cles, and suddenly, without warning
they dart up from the bottom, and bya
violent opening and shutting o. their
valves rush away with their long, red.
dish hair streaming after them, pre-
sent NJ a very curious appearance.
The shell known as the Lima Mans
is particularly remarkable for these
flights, and all the scallops are jumpers
and leapers. When placed in a boat
they have been known to leap out, and
the ordinary scallop has been known
to jump out of a pot when placed
upon a stove. A description of the
different methods by which shells
move would ill a volume Cincinnati

Many of our birds fly several
thousand miles every autumn, passing
not only over Florida, where they
might find perpetual summer, but over
the Gulf and far beyond into the great
summcr-land of the Amazon, after
short stay returning again to the
North, penetrating to the extreme
shores of the Arctic seas. How the
small birds fly so great distances is
almost incomprehensible; but | have
seen m&ny of our small feathered
friends on the little Key OF Tortugas,
two hundred miles or more from Cape
Florida, the jumpins-olf place of the
United States. GrOlt ilocks of them
would alight upon the walls of the
fort, especially during storms, evident
ly thoroughly tired but the next day
they were up and away off over the
great stretch of the Gulf and the Car
ribean Sea.
Numbers of the English birds and
many from Northern Europe make
yearly voyages down in the African
continent, and careful Observers state
that they have seen the great storks'
so common in Germany, moving along
high in the air, bearing on their broad
backs numbers of small birds that had
taken free passage, or were, perhaps,
stealing ride In these wonderful
migrations many birds are blown out
to sea and lost, while others become
so fatigued and worn out that they
will alght upon boats. A New Eng
land fisherman, who in the autumn
follows his calling fourteen or fifteen
miles out from shore, Informed me
that nearly every day he had four or
FIVE small birds as companions. They
had wandered off from shore, or were
flying across the great bay on the
lower coast of Maine and had dropped
down to rest. One day the same
fisherman fell asleep while holding his
line, and upon suddenly opening his
eyes there sat a little bird on his hand,
demurely cooking his head this way
and that as if wondering whether he
was an old wreck or a piece of drift
wood. at Work.

How the Thanksgiving Turkey Origi'
notni

HOW inc tlliihhfShliS my Wis
mated.
In 1921 the Pilgrim Fathers had
been eleven months planting their
little colony in the wilderness OF the
New World, subduing the forest and
Indians, and enjoying their civil ana
religious liberty. Esteeming their
progress to be Il success, they resolved
to set apart day for public praise and
thanksgiving to the God who had pro-
tccted and delivered them from the
perils that beset their first work in
freedom. Having made treaty of
peace with the Indians, they decided
to invite the chief, MasSasoit, and his
associates, to partalle with them a
public Thanksgiving Dinner. Just
here they found themselves embar-
rasscd in properly supplying their
table with elibles suitable for the oc
casion. Corn, potatoes, turnips and
pumpkins of their summer production
were decidedly Inadequate for the en-
tertainment Of their guests. 80 Gov
ernor Winthrop dispatched four
hunters into the forest to procure some
game. In due time they returned
with a supply of wild turkeys, which
probably made the most enjoyable
dinner that has been spread from that
day to this. And more, that turkey
dinner has been initiated now 262
years, and will be for years to come.
And while the Pilgrims praised their
God, tie Indians blessed the turkey.

Some time since blind gentleman,
well known in the north of England,
went for a walk of several mil s, ac-
companicd by his dog. lie knew the
road so well that he did not strap up
the dog, but let it run loose. lie had
gone nearly five miles on his way, and
was crossing some fields by footpath,
when his dog gave II peculiar whine in
front of him. lie was about to climb
a stile when another whine was heard.
This startled him so he crossed the
stile as care fully as he could, feeling
every step. Just as he got over the
sti,e, the dog gave a louder whine of
alarm, placed his forcfeet upon his
breast, and held him fast against the
stie. lie tried to push the dog aside
but it would not let him proceed. The
strap was therefore put around his
neck, and the wise creature at once led
its master by Il roundabout way quite
out of the ordinary path. 1t appeared
that port of the footpath which led
past stream had been entirely wash
ca aw.y by fool 50 that, had the
gentleman continued upon the old
path he must have met with most
serious accident.
What made the sagacity of the dog
mcre conspicuous on this occasion was
the fact that it had not been with its
master for eighteen months--he having
been laid up for the whole of that
period, and the dog living with a
friend during the time.-Ljttie FolhS
