there wasn't something she could send

Private Spring thought of lot of
things that he could use if he had
them, but as the fair correspondent
had omitted to sign her last name, it
didn't seem feasible to write for them
Presently both Springs began to get
letters complaining that no answers
had been received to questions asked
in the writer's previous letters.
At the height of the tangle Sergeant
Spring was walking along the road
one day, when a comrade called his
name. He and another man ahead of
him both walked back, asking what
was wanted.
"Is your name Spring, too?" asked
the sergeant.
"That's what" replied the other
man. "Francis Joseph Spring"
"Well, that's me, too," said the
sergeant.
"Say," he added, as a thought
struck him, edo you get letters from q

RoAD.MAKlNc ANIMALS.
Tho Trails of Sheep and Musk Oxen Have
Legal Recognition.

Tho Trails OF Sheep and Musk-Oxen Have
Legal Recognition.
In a note on tresspass by animals
the editor of Country Life states that
the Welsh mountain sheep have OBJ
tained legal recognition of their capac-
ity to distinguish boundaries and as
sert rights of way. On certain farms
the hocks know the boundaries of
their mountain pastures, and presum-
ably transmit this knowledge to their
lambs. They also maintain their
rights against intruders, and if they
meet trespassing sheep on the paths
which generations of fiocks have worn
On the mountain side they do battle
for the right of way, and if possible
knock the intruders down the hill.
This sense of locality augments the
value of flocks bred on these hills,
and the enhanced value was settled at
Dolgelly Assizes as half crown per
sheep.
We should expect this assertion OF
lights of way by sheep, though their
knowledge of boundaries is more diff.
cult to account for. Sheep have for
unknown ages been the great path
markers on mountains and downs, and
have left their mark on the faces OF
The everlasting hills. The sheep
walks are only made Intentionally in SC
50 far that the hocks having once
settled which is the shortest, easiest
and best route across these roadless
hills never seem to abandon what
their reason has decided to be the
best. Out on the hills these animals
are almost in their primitive condition
before domestication, and not the
least interesting feature of their con
duct in this relapse to the wild state
is that, in spite of the highly artificial
conditions in which they live to-day,
they retain the primitive instincts Of
their race.
That this ''peremptory and path.
keeping" impulse is part of their early
instinct is clear from an account OF
the habits of the musk-ox recently
written by the London Times cores.
pondent in Canada. The musk-ox,
the ovibus, is as much akin to the
sheep as to the bovide, and in habits
more like what we imagine the unde
scended great original of our SHEEP
was than are the wild sheep of to-day.

and is migratory, just as all the do.
mesticated hocks of Spain are, and
those of Thrace and the Caspian
steppe. These focks always return
from the barren lands in the Fan
North by the same road and cross
rivers by the same fords. Nothing
but too persistent slaughter at these
points by the Indians who beset them
induces them to desert their ancient
highways. Pictures and anecdotes OF
the migrations of these animals, and
of the bison in former days, represent
them as moving on q broad front
across the prairie or tundra. The ex
amples of all moving multitudes sug
gest that this was not their usual
formation on the march, and their
roads prove that they moved on q mar.
