How Most Animals are Affected by
Earth TremOrs.

Very probably not only fish but ami
mails and some birds hear as much by the
vibration of the earth as by the sound
travelling in the atmosphere, and depend
as much upon their immediate perception
OF the slightest tremor of the earth as
upon recognition by the ear in the man
ner familiar to ourselves. When rabbits,
for instance, are out feeding in the grass,
it is often possible to get quite close to
them by walking in this way, extremely
slow, and carefully placing the foot by
slow degrees upon the ground. The earth
is then merely pressed, and not stepped
upon at all. so that there is no jar. BY
doing this | have often moved up with
in gunshot of rabbits without the least
aid from cover. Once now and then |
have walked across a field straight at
them. Something, however, depends
on the direction of the wind, for then
the question of scent comes in. To some
degree it is the same with hares. 1t is
certainly the case with birds, as wood
pigeons, flock Of them, will remain feed
ing only just the other side of the hedge 4;
but if you stamp the earth, Will rise
instantly. So will rocks, though they
Will not fly far if you are not armed.
Partridges certainly secure themselves
by their attention to the faint tremor of
the ground. Pheasants do so too, and
make off, running through the under
wood long before any one is in sight.
The most sensitive are land rails, and it
is difficult to get near them, for this
reason. Though the moving grass must
conceal an approaching person from them
oc L. ii u, Ii
change their positions, no matter how
quietly he walks. Let him be as cunning
as he will, and think to cut off corners
and cross the land rails retreat, the bird
battles him nine times in ten. That it is
advised of the direction the pursuer takes
by the vibration of the surface is at least
probable. Other birds sit and
hope to escape by remaining still
till they detect the tremor COM
ing direct toward them, when they rise.
Rain and dry weather change the suscep.
tibility of the surface to vibrate. and
may sometimes in part account for the
wildness or apparent tamcness of birds
and animals. should anyone doubt the
existence of such tremcrs he has only to
lie on the ground viii his ear near the
surface; but being unused to the expert
ment he will at first only notice the
heavier sounds, as of wagon or cart
horse. In recent experiments with most
delicate instruments devised to show the
cosmc vibration of the earth, the move
ments communicated to it by the
tides, or by the "pull' of the sun and
moon, it has been found almost impossi-
BILE as yet to carry. out the object, so
greatly are these movements obscured by
the ceaseless and ineXplicable vibrations
of the solid earth. There is nothing I'M
reasonable in the supposition that, if an
instrument can be constructed to show
these, the ears of animals and birds
living organisms and not iron and steel
should be able to discover the tremors
of the surface. Life Of tile FieIis.

An Abyssinian Library.

The Abyssinian alphabet consists of
209 characters, each OF which is written
distinctly and separately, like the letters
of European printed book. The labor
required to write an Abyssinian book is
therefore immense, and sometimes years
are consumed in the preparation of a sim
gle volume. Mr.. Cuzon, an English
scholar, visited an AbYssinian monastery
few miles from Cairo, and was sur
prised TO find therein one of the most
unique of Libraries.
In room twenty-six feet by twenty a
number of long wooden pegs projected
from the walls, and on them hung about
fifty Abyssinian books in manuscript. As
the entire literature of Abyssinia does
not include more than one hundred vol
umes, the monks were proud of their
library.
Each book was bound in red leather or
in boards, and inclosed in a case tied up
with leather thongs. To this case was
attached a strap for the convenience of
carrying the volume over the shoulders,
and by these straps the books were hung
to the wooden pegs, three or four to a
peg.
The room thus fitted up also contained
q number of long slaves, for the monks
TO lean on at the time of prayer. 1t had
the appearance of a guard room, where
the soldiers had hung their knapsacks
and cartridge. boxes against the wall. -

The Majors Playful Way.

One evening, in the autumn Of SO,
word reached the major that party of
prospectors had jumped the "Nip and
Tuck, claimed by him. The next morn.
ing the major bucklcd on his favorte
bone handled revolver and started out to
expostulate with the boys in his peculiar
way. Expecting to find them at work
in the tunnel, he walked Carelessly to-
ward its mouth. The boys were "laying
for him. AS he reached the dump pile
commanding IA view of the tunnel, he
saw the muzzles of three guns frowning
through a clump of bushes at its mouth,
and threw himself backward Just as the
boys blazed away. The ambusning party
rushed out eated to look at the fallen
terror of the mines, Jim Turner wild
Texan, who feared not even the majors
aim, being in the lead.
The major, who sat upright at the foot
of the dump pile unhurt, with his re-
yover ready, "pinked" him promptly.
The discussion which followed was con
else and somewhat technical. ''Gentle-
men," said the major, turning to the
other two assailants who stood with un-
loaded guns, ~ see your Llind and strad-

WISE WORDS.

We have some cases of the pride OF
learning, but multitude of the pride of
ignorance.
In the education of children love il
first to be instilled, and out of love obed
fence is to be educated.
In this commonplace world everyone
is said to be romantic who either admires
fine thing or does one.
Pride, like the magnet, constantly
points to one object-se!f; but unlike
the magnet it has no attractive pole,
but at all points repels.
Keep your sorrows and trials from the
little ones as far as possible. Life should
be all sunshine for them they will find
out its shadows soon enough.
Some men make great flourish about
always doing what they believe to be
right; but always manage to believe
that is right which is for their own in
terest.
Those pleasures which depend on our
selves are the only ones wise man will
count; for nothing is ours which another
may deprive us of; hence the inestima
bic value of intellectual pleasures.
To commit the execution of a purpose
to one who disapproves of the plan oft,
is to employ but one-third of the man !;
his heart and his head are against you
you have commanded only his hands.
Keenness in man is not always to
be taken as sign of capacity, for it is
generally observed most in those who
are selfish and overreaching; and his
kcenness generally ends in that kind of
penetration into other peoples in
terest which will tend to benefit his
