WONDERS OF BIRD MIGRATION.
Some Fly During the Day and Others at
IL. Night.


The manner of travel differs greatly
among the birds. Nearly everybody
has seen or heard the focks of wild
geese passing over in the night, max
ing tremendous leaps, so to speal.,
across the country on their way south.
That the shore birds bound to Pata-
gonna travel in like fashion has already
been told. Probably the great majority
of birds travel south in great f]ocks
at tremendous height from the earth.
They are thus able in pleasant weather
at least to see the landscape and so di.
rect their way unvaryingly. In storms
and fogs they lose their way, become
confused, plunge about among the tree
tops, fly through the streets of cities
and dash themselves to death agains,
the windows of lighthouses. To my
mind this gathering of timid birds like
the thrush-birds that live the sum-
mer through close to the ground and
are never seen 100 feet above the soil
the gathering, l say, of birds like these
in great flocks that 90 careening high
in air for vast distances over the land
by night is the greatest marvel of mi
grafton. 1t seems matter of course
that swallows should do so, for they are
tireless.
On the other hand there are birds
that are seen by day in "a ceaseless tide
Of migration "They pass leisurely
from tree TO tree, cleaning as they go,"
says one observer writing on the char
acteristics of warblers. 1t is worth not
ing that the birds who migrate in this
fashion are peculiar in their habits as
wcrkers--they never waste any time in
play. The robins, the orioles. the bobo-
links make picnic excursion of their
annual flight, but the plodders of tn,
fcathered race must needs carry their
knitting TO camp meeting. 1t has been
Supposed that the birds who migrate
by night do so TO escape the attacks
Of predatory birds, but these plodding
migrants are quite as subject to at
tacks rs any. Besides, on the clear
nights when the night flyers go they
are certainly subject to attacks from
owls There are so many things we do
not know about the habits of birds
that it seems worth while to call attei-
ton to points that may be disputed
in the hope that some who seek knowl-
edge out of pure love of it may turn
their attention to this most interesting
part of life in nature.-Colette Smiley,
in Chautauquan.

Wonderful suns.

Astronomers are not yet all agreed As
70 the causes of the variations of color
and brilliancy which are exhibited by
many stars. In the constellation Ce-
pheus, in the northern sky, there is o
star named Delta Cephei, which in the
course of about three days alternately
gains and loses large part of it's light.
The spectroscope has proved that Delta
Cephei consists of two stars revolving
around one another in very elliptical
orbit, although they never get far
enough apart to be separately visible
from the earth. Even when viewed with
telescope their light is blended into
a single star disk, although if we could
60 near enough to them we should find
that they are, in reality, millions of
miles apart When brightest, the united
light of the twin stars is two or three
times greater than when faintest. One
Of the explanations recently offered by
astronomers to account for these
changes is that one of the stars compos-
ing Delta Cephei has very thick at
mospheric veil, consisting of clouds of
condensed metallic vapors, and that
when the stars draw near one another
in their orbital motion the increase of
heat dissipates the obscuring veil, and
permits the star to which IL belongs to
shine with q splendor that II cannot OBJ
tain when its rays are interrupted by it's
envelope of clouds. 1t is hard TO be-
lieve that the inhabited worlds could ex-
list in the neighborhood of such pnir
of suns as that.-Youth's Companion.

About some Queer BIRDS.

The woodpecker can climb up the
stem of tree like flash, but he can't
climb down it to save his life. The lit
tie sapsucker of the same family can do
both. The kingfisher dives under the
water and catches its fish in it's mouth.
The crane stands in the water and fishes
and spears it's prey with its long, sharp
bill, as you might spear I'm eel with a
gig. The crane rises with the fish inn
