NATURAL HISTORY.

All animals ruminate which have
horns and cloven feet.
The offspring of two rabbits might
in ten years number 70,0O0,000.
Flying fish have been known to jump
ten feet above the surface of the sea.
The putin is the most pupctual of
birds in the matter of its annual migra-
ton.
The moose deer has the largest horns
Of any animal. They often weigh from
fifty to sixty pounds.
The boa and python have the largest
number of ribs of any animals, the
number being 800 pairs.
Some few birds, notably the blue
throat, accomplish the whole of their
migratory journey in one stupendous
effort.
The reindeer can endure more than
any other draft animal except the
camel. A reindeer has been known to
pull 200 pounds at ten miles an hour
for twelve hours.

The Eremie. os wi1d sbeen

Wild sheep depend for greatest pro-
lection on their climbing capabilities.
They travel where no man can follow,
and often in climbing use their knees
instead Of their fore hoofs. Their first
instinct at the approach Of an enemy
is to start for the mountain top, aiming
if possible to get above and keep above
the enemy.
Wolves, wolverines and eagles are
their most common enemies, and the
lambs suffer extensively from these.
Wolves are capable of taking down
grown animals, but in summer hunger
seldom induces them to make the
struggle and in winter they prefer
lower attitudes. There are many stories
told of the lordly ram doing battle
with wolves, which are ON a par with
the story of leaping from dizzy heights.
The old rams are cunning, and in this
lies their greatest safety. They are
perfectly at home on rocky ledges,
where the wolf is not, and if they can
gain such position they will, with
one charge, hurl the wolf to the rocks
below.-A. J. Stone in Outing.
