But perhaps the strangest instance OF
the possession of some sense unknown
to us occurs in the case of the parasitic
wasp Leucopsis Ueucopsis gigas). Leu.
copsis lays her eggs in the cells built
by the mason bee Chalicodma. The cell
of this bee is placed in a mass of solid
masonry, a part only of which Is occu.
pied by cells. Every cell Is built With
hard mortar, making an uneven sur.
| face, and access is rendered even moro
| difficult by layer of sun-baked clay
spread over the whole. Leucopsis has
perhaps to work uninterruptedly for
three hours with the tools nature has
| furnished to penetrate the defense pro-
vided by the mason bee for the egg and
| food stored In the cell. But the cover.
ing is uniform over the whole struct'
ure. How Is Leucopsis to know that
after all her work may not be in vain,
that she may not penetrate masonry
that covers no cell? This problem is
easily solved by the wasp. who walks
slowly and, so to speak, thoughtfully
over the clay, tests it with her anten'
nae, and unfailingly selects the right
spot to begin her work. which of course
Is to obtain access to the larvae of the
mason bee. upon which her young will
feed when the egg she lays there is
hatched.

SONG OF THE pERELlcTs.

'From ocean to ocean we wander
From polar to tropical tide,
Alone and forlorn and forsaken,
The wraiths of our time-faded pride.
"Through the tumult and surge of the
tempest,
Wave beaten and battered we churn,
The ships of no name and no haven.
The ships that shall never return
lin and down through the streets of the
cities
Co the men that are kin to lost ships.
The wreckage of old loves, time tattered,
The desolate ghosts OF friendships.
Through the storms of the ife-seas they
wander,
Wave tossed by the ceaseless unrest
Migrants, Stunned by their fortunate
brothers.
Till they drift to the Port of All Quest.

In the course of a lecture at the Con-
ference of Musicians in Dublin, Ire
land, some interesting particulars and
some astonishing statistics We're given
relatively to the amount of work ac'
complished by the brain and nerves in
piano playing. A pianist in view of the
present state of panoforte playing has
to cultivate the eye to see about 1000
signs in one minute, the fingers to
make about 1000 movements, and the
brain to receive and understand separ.
ately the 1900 signs while 1t issues 200G
orders. In playing Weber's "Moto per
petuo," pianist has to read 4541 notes
in little under four minutes. This Is
about nineteen per second; but the eye
can receive only about ten consecutive
impressions per second so that 1t is
evident that in very rapid music .
player does not see every note singly,
but in groups, probably bar or more
at. one vision. In ChOpin's "Etude in Il
Minor" lin the second seD the speed OF
reading Is still greater, since it Is neces'
sary to read $3.50 signs in two minutes
and q half. which is equivalent to
about twenty-slx notes per second.
