WALKING LEAVES.
How Current superstition HAD Its
Origin.

How Currsnt SuperstItion HAD Its
Origin.
Almost everybody has heard Of the
wonderful walking leaves OF Australia
For long time after the discovery OF
that island many people believed that
the leaves Of a certain tree which
fourishes there could and did walk
about on the ground. The story arose
In this way. Some English sailors land
ed upon the coast one day. and, after
roaming until they were tired, they sat
down under tree TO rest themselves. A
gust of wind came along and blew
shower of leaves from the tree. which,
after turning over and over in the air,
as leaves generally do. rested on the
ground. AS II was midsummer and
everything appeared quite green, the
circumstances puzzled the sailors con-
siderably; but their surprise was much
greater. as you may well suppose, when,
after short lime, they saw the leaves
crawling along the ground toward the
trunk of the tree. They at once ran to
their vessel, without stopping to exam
inc into the case at all. and set sail
from the land where everything seemed
TO be bewltched. One OF the men said
ne expected every moment 10 see lne
trees set to and dance a jig" Subse-
quent explorations disclosed the fact
that these walking leaves are small
animals that live upon the trees. Their
bodies are very thin and fiat. their
wings forming large and leaf-like or
gans. When disturbed, their legs arc
folded awy under their bodies. leaving
their shape exactly like leaf, with it's
stem and all complete. They are OF
bright green color In summer. but grad
ually change in the fall with the leaves.
10 the brown OF a frost vegetation.
When shaken from the tree they lie for
a few minutes upon the ground as
though dead, but soon begin to crawl
along toward the tree which they as
cend again. They rarely use their
wings, although pretty well supplied in
this respect.
