The Tail of n Wolf,

The wolf carries its tail hanging
down because in that position it is less
conspicuous and better eludes detec-
ton. A family of wolves playing to-
gether undisturbed occasionally carry
their tails curled upward. By degrees
the tail acquires naturally the upright
position as a result Of coincident evo-
luton of the mind Of the wolf by do
mestication and of the slow adaptation
of the appendage as an organ Of eX-
preston. The cessation Of natural Sc
lection in the domestic dog would give
the tail greater freedom Of motion
without detriment to life, and artifi-
cial selection modifies it into various
shapes.

Wild Hrrux IN Germany.

A correspondent of the London Mail
at Dresden writes that the Germans are
far in advance Of some other people in
caring for the wild birds in their towns.
During the winter shelters from the
snow are erected in public parks and
private gardens for them and plenti-
fully Supplied with food of various
kinds, including mountain ash berries
for thrushes and blackbirds and other
seeds for the smaller birds. This mix
ture is sold at very cheap rate in
shops for the purpose. In springtime
one may see many birds nesting in spe-
cial wooden boxes placed in the higher
trees, out of the reach of cats. The
boxes are Of different sizes, to suit
starlings, sparrows or tomtfts.
