thors general views on a very difficult and
very important subject, but il may be not
ed that he intends to divide the alleged
cases of mimicry into those considered as
demonstrated" and those classed as "sug
gested' or probable, after which we may
expect a fuller discussion on the whole
subject.
In the first section of his communica-
ton Mr.. Distant takes up the case of thu
stick insects (Phasmldae), and discusses
their bearing on the mimicry theory These
insects, he states. are usually considered
as undoubted examples of protective re-
semblance due to natural selection. If. as
has been asserted, they are represented
in the carboniferous, they must be the
result Of an antecedent evolutionary pro-
cess. Further, the presence OF initiative
Phasmidae In the carboniferous implies
the existence Of enemies, probably reptiles.
and possibly transitional forms of bird
life. Thus mimicry must be of very an
cient origin; whence 1t is argued that some
cases of 1t In existence without any an
parent reason may be due to survival and
are now altogether useless to the animals
in which they occur.
The alleged protective resemblance Of
fishes TO their surroundings Is, the author
ity suggests, not the true explanation of
their coloring, their extraordinary fecun-
dity being, in his opinion sufficient to
override the necessity for any such pro-
lection. We shall await with interest fur
ther instaliments of this communication.

"RIGHT MAKES MIGHT"
The Motto of the Republic Now at
War With Great Britain.
From the London Mail.


''Eendraght MAXI Magt"-right makes
nights the motto of the South Afri-
can Republic. The aasvogel, or vulture, is
the dominant feature of the Transvaars
coat-of-arms, the design of which is ex-
tremely simpe-on the left-hand quarter
a lion couchant, on the right an armed
Boer with rifle, a Boer OK wagon filing
the remaining half of the picture, in the
center of which is an anchor IMPLYING
the Cape Colonial origin of the Transvaal-
ers. A long time ago a die was made
in Holland for a Transvaal government
official, but was rejected because the OK
wagon was depicted with pair of shafts,
instead of a single pole OF 'disselboom."
An orange tree in full fruit is the most
distinctive feature of the arms of the
Orange Free State. Beneath the tree are,
on one side a lion, and on the other a
number of oxen. An OK wagon, similar
to that on the Transvaal arms, and, three
suspended horns complete the whole.
"Spes Bona"-good hope-is written I'M
derneath the arms of the Cape Colony,
the chief feature of which is lion ram
pant A figure of Hope surmounts the
shield, the supporters of which are a
couple of native animals.
The royal arms of England In miniature
igur prominently on the arms of Natal,
with "Dieu ct mon Droit' as the motto.
Natal is the most distinctively British Of
any of the South African colonies.
The Rhodesian coat-of-arms is possibly
the most elaborate of any in South AT
RIGA. Justice, Commerce, Freedom" is
the proud motto of the British South At
RIGA Company. A lion, one of whose paws
clutches an elephants tusk surmounts
the shield, on which an elephant is the
principal figure. Two animals of the
''beeste'' order are the supporters.

familiar.
distinct outcome of the Boer troubles
can be traced in Under the Same Old
Flag" and even the highly coored litho-
graphed cover of the song overhows with
loyalty, depicting as It does a New South
Wales lancer ready to do and die for the
mother country and in the act Of singing:
Let your voices ring for England,
And your banners wave on high;
Brave hearts are burning,
Ready there to do or die.
When the sword is drawn for freedom
There's not boy" behind viii drag;
Englands our mother. and we know no
other
Under the same old flag"
Another Little Patch of Red" is a song
that is having an enormous sale, and this
is even more up-to-date than the one just
quoted, for IL contains a verse that takes
In the TTansvaal situation right up 10
President Kruger's ultimatum, followed by
chorus the significance of which cannot
be mistaken:
IF they want to get the pun on old John
Bull,
They'll have to get up early out Of bed;
AS again they've had a slap.
We shall paint a certain map
With just another little patch of red"
A third ballad Of the same order, but one
whose popularity has waned somewhat on
account Of the rumor that Irishmen are
serving under the Boer flag, Is "Irishmen
Must BE There" But the chorus is NOT
wanting in the right sentiment:
"And what a dear old land TO fight for,
What a grand Old nation still
When you read your history
Don't make your hearts blood thrill?
We don't know II the quarrers right or
wrong,
Bedadl an we don't care,
We only know there's going to be a fight
And Irlshmen must be there!
A song which Mr. Leo Stormont sings to
enthusiastic audiences is entitled Take
the Muzzle Off the Lion" The following
are the first verse and chorus:
1.-THE note of fierce defiance has been hurl-
ed,
And we must prove our rights before the
world;
To make our just demands we did not
cease
Until the brutal Beers disdained our peace.
They've tried the game of buster, bounce
and brag
And thrown their dirty insults at our flag;
Now they must fight, and pay-the die is
cast,
And we wipe out the errors of the past.
"Then take the muzzle off the lion,
And let him have a go!
Is Beer or Briton going to rule?
That's what we want 10 know!
Whisper to him "Majuba Hill"
Then at his chain he'll pull;
There's only room for one out there,
And that's John Bull"

Childish Beliefs.
From the New York Press.

Children are educated in the belief that
every fourth year is a leap year. and para
and mamma are worried to death trying to
explain the phenomenon. And the same
papa and mamma cannot tell you, 10 save
their lives, why next year will not be
leap year. The old rule was that every
wear that could be divided by without a
remainder was a 5eap year, but the young
folk were not advised that the contesimal
years are only leap years when divisble by
4 after suppressing the two zercs. Thus,
1900 was a leap year 100 and 1900 were
common years; 1850 win be a common year
and 2OCO leap year and 50 on 10 the end
of the chapter.
