Very Like Reason.

The crows and other birds that carry
shellfish high in the air and then let
them drop upon the rocks to break the
shell show something very like reason
or a knowledge OF the relation of cause
and effect. Froude tells Of some spe-
cies of bird that he saw In South AT
RIGA flying amid the swarm Of migrat
ing lncusts and clipping Off the wings
of the insects so that they would drop
to the earth. where the birds could de-
vour them at their leisure. Our SOUR
rels will cut off the chestnut burs be-
fore they have opened. allowing them
to fall to the ground. where, as they
seem to know. the burs soon dry open.
