THE BOX TURTLES NAP.

Methuselah, the box uurtIe, philosophical
In the garden. Two hundred years before,
when Methuselah was young-for such is
the great age of box turtles-he had lived In
the great forest, dividing the freedom of the
woods with the Indians, the wild turkeys
and the buffalo. But now the Indian and
the buffalo had been driven to seek refuge
In the Wild West show, the turkeys had
heen tanned to the farmyard and Methuselah
himself had been compelled by eireum-
stances and strong cord to spend his de-
clining years in back yard of a New York
city house.
The old patriarch was still sufficiently
strong TO dig up whole bricks, heavy stones
and entire sunfower plants.
But he showed signs of his extreme age.
His eyes were no longer the fiery red color
of youth, but Il dull brown, while the skin
of his neck was folded and wrinkled until 1t
looked like accordion plaits. His shell was
mostly yellow, the glossy black having dis
appeared.
Very tame was Methuselnh as long as no
one came near him, but he had fondness
for the fingers of those who approached him
too closely which made most of his visitors
express a preference for his companion,
John, who was mere infant in comparison
with Methuselah, although if he had been
man instead of turtle he would have been
nicknGmed "Methuselah' himself.
Nethuselah knew that it was almost time
for his six-month winter nap to begin, and
already his cousins. the mud turtles, OF
whom there are many-the painted mud
turtle. the map turtle, the speckled tortoise
and the diamondback terrapin-had gone
into their mudholes for the winter. He
knew that in the far-on forest the frost
grapes must be ripe, and from time imme-
mortal this had been the sign by which ne
and his forefathe had discovered when 1t
was time to go into the earth for the winter.
Always since they had come into the gar
den to live Methuselah and John had gone
into winter quarters together, and after six
months sleep they had come out together
and appeared in the garden on the same
spring day.
But this year Methuselah had shown n re-
luctance to go into his long sleep. John
watched him patiently, waiting for the sign
from the older turtle.
Presently Johns patience was rewarded.
Methuselah started up ana began to go
slowly zlgzagging round the garden. John
followed In his wake. for 1t was the annual
'walk-around" which all turtles make, TO
look for a soft place for winter quarters.
Almost at the same moment John and he
began to burrow. They were not so close as
to interfere with zach other, and neither
paid any attention to his companion. They
dug away steadily until they had almost

reached the frost-iine; then they turned and
mounted again to the outside world
1t was their last glimpse of outdoors for
six months But they wasted no time on
sentiment. Each turtle poised himself on
the edge of his hole, shut his shell up tight
and deliberately fell over, head first into his
winter bed.
Having performed this act, his labors were
by no means at an end. Down in the hole
he began digging again very industilously,
until he had gotten well below the frost-line.
Then again he drew in his head, closed his
shell and settled down for good, not to wake
again until the spring.
Neither Methuselah nor John nor any of
their relatives took any food or drink into
their winter quarters. Unlike Nj. Fox the
subject of winter food does not disturb the
turtle. Even the most insignificant mud
turtle would scorn the weakness Of wanting
food, and in the spring when they Gene our

And sleep How Methuselah and John did
sleep! Nothing short of an earthquake
could have walked them. Hail and sleet
storms, heavy, soaking rains, were powerless
to disturb them.
When the snow had melted and the earth
softened so that the crocus buds pushed
their way through to Hight and air, John
awoke one day, opened his shell and looked
around him in the earth. moist from the drp-
pings of melted icices. He stretched his
neck out and began to reach upward, and
presently, by steady pushing, he found him

Methuselah had not vet arrived. Day after
day John waited for him, sitting blinking In
the sun or resting comfortably underneath
the bushes. But Methuselah never came
again. 1t is thought by some of his friends
that he has gone in search of the Fountain
of Youth, which is said to be In the center
of the earth, so that he may drink of 1t and
