One of the most remarkable devices
resorted to by wild things for their own
protection is that Of shamming death.
A beetle or spider will double in its
legs and lie as if dead The reason for
this is obvious 1t may then be passed
over, mistaken for bit of leaf or stick.
But it is more difficult to account for
this practice in birds.
A moor hen or land rail will feign
death, lying in the hand perfectly limp
and to all appearances unconscious. 1t
has been suggested that the idea is that,
being already dead, the captor will not
trouble 10 kill them.
More probably it is merely ruse in
the hope that by lying still they may
be forgotten and crawl off presently un.
observed. Another reason is suggested
by the fact that cats and the cat tribe
do not often touch their prey unless il
moves London Standard.

The heavy rains prevailing largely
from the opening To the close of the
Free Methodist campmeeting, seemed
TO make but little difference with the
attendance. Twenty tents went up the
first day, and thirty-one tents were on
the grounds at the close, representing
some 70 or 80 families, besides the pro-
miscuous crowds in attendance every
day and evening Good order has pre-
vailed throughout the oncampment, the
leaders are pleased with the results, and
few criticisms have been heard from
outsiders. Conversions have occurred
almost every day, largely among chill
