The Vanishing Weasel.

As lay stretched on the bank at the
foot of a great maple I saw a wease.
| run along in the brush fence some dis
lance away. A few seconds later he was
standing on the exposed root of the tree
hardly yard from my eyes. lay mo-
tionless and examined the beautiful
creature infinitely, till suddenly found
myself staring at the smooth, greenish
gray root IF the maple, with no weasel
In sight
Judging from my own experience, /
should say that this is the usual termi-
nation of any chance observations Of Ell
Their weasels or minks- Occasionally
they may be seen to dart into the bushes
or behind some log or projecting bank,
but much more frequently they vanish
with suddenness that defies the keen
est eyesight. In all probability this van
ishing is accompanied by extreme rapid
tty Of motion, but if this is the case
then the creature succeeds in doing
something utterly impossible to any
other warm blooded animal of its size.
Mice, squirrels and some Of the small
er birds are all of them swift enough at
times, but except in the case Of the
humming bird none Of them, l believe,
succeeds in accomplishing the result
achieved by the weasels. Popular

The Designer, that well-known and always
popular fashion monthly, has advanced its
subscription price 10 cents on the year. but
has likewise so improved and enlarged that it
is worth double the dollar now charged for it.
The June issue is credit to its publishers
both in illustrations and literary work. The
color plates are of the best quality, and the
many designs for fashions are charmingly
refined and stylish.
