safety to a spider. Among the Tartars
of Central Asia there is a belief that
one OF their khans or chiefs was pre-.
served, long years ago, by the Great
Horned Owl. He had hidden in a
thicket to avoid capture by some ene-
mics. BY and by his purSuers came to
the spot. The first thing they saw was
an owl sitting on n bush. What did
this mean? 1t signiGed, in their eyes.
that this bird wo-!1 not rest quietly

his way TO the camp OF his men, and
told them how he had been saved from
certain death. His story caused them
ever afterward to look upon the owl
with reverence and love. They wore

OF victory.
