Rescued by nn owl.

King Robert the Bruce. according 10
She well known story. once owed his
safety to a spider. Among the Tar
tars of central Asia there is Il belief
that one Of their khans or chiefs was
preserved, long years ago, by the
great horned owl. He had hidden in
thicket to avoid capture by some
enemies. By and by his pursuers
came TO this spot. The first thing
they saw was an oWl sitting on q
bush, What did this mean? II sig
nited. in their eyes, that this bird
would not rest quietly there if any
luau were lying concealed close by.
Therefore they argued that the khan
could not be there and so they l.lr-
ried on TO SEARCH for him elsewhere.
At n'ghtfalI The khan made his way
TO the camp Of he men and told them
how he had been Savsd from certain
death. His story cacsed them ever
aftcrward 10 look upon The owl with
reverence and love. They wore its
feathers in their caps as pledge Of

that the American hen alone laid the
