GERMANY'S GARDENS.

Fields Look Like Bed Quilts.

North Germany is a low and level
plain. bearing the strongest possible
outward resemblance to patchwork

pattern.
The land IL cut into patches no larger
than our garden plots. Patches mostly
rectangular shaped. but some to meet
the exlgencles OF the ground. are
curves, squares half squares, wedges
and ovals. Not a fence OF boundary
line Is anywhere seen.
The freshly quilted colors OF these
little fields. green. brown and yellow,

the foliage alone give diversity TO the
placid scene. for solidity, regularity and

Gus Landscape are countless windmills
whose Jagged arms seem forever beck
oned to you franucally as You speed
along.
There Is. however. no such thing IN
Germany as "out IN the country In our
sense OF the term. The dense popula-
tion Is all either gathered into the
cities that stand IN astonishingly close
proximity. or into the little peasant
villages everywhere dottlng the plain.

Robins Play Mt Being Dead.

One morning well known naturalist
was greatly surprised to see a robin
lying on his back evidently dead, being
rapidly pulled round and round by an
other bird of the same species.
The naturalist at once came to the
conclusion that he had come in time
to witness the end OF a deadly en-
counter and that the live robin was
indulging in the cruel triumph Of drag
ging his victims lifeless body over the
stones.
But he was mistaken, for suddenly
the live bird went down upon his back,
his wings and legs were stiffened, and
he gave every appearance Of being
dead, while the other robin who had
been shamming death hoped on his
legs and proceeded to serve his COM
panion in the same way as he had
done him. Finally the two birds flew
away together to neighboring tree.
