HABITS OF BIRD BABIES.
Some Remarkable Instances of Inner ited Instinct Among Young of
 the Feathered Tribe.

"It is not all bird babies, however, who have such warIike dispositions. and the young of those parents which are themselves of timid nature, or unable personally to protect their offspring from marauders, frequently adopt very diff ferent tactics" writes Jerrard Grant Allen and Leonard Buttress in an ar ticle on Bird Babies in Pearson's. Their plumage Is. In many cases, so beautiful ly adapted to the surrounding vegeta- tion, earth or stones, as to be practically indiscernable so long as the chick re- mains still. Indeed, the aviary Is able to afford examples of protective re- semblance at least as perfect as that demonstrated by beast or fish. Heredi- tary instinct 1t Is which teaches the baby that this protective coloration iB its best safeguard, and it is not slow to put it's advantages into practice.
 "An example of this is the case of the stone curlew. The tiny chick, just proach of some real or supposed dan- ger, fatten its little, sand-colored body against the sandy ground, stretch out its neck to the fullest extent, and lie there motionless and almost indistin- guishable from the stones around it, until all sign of danger is past. Unless in fact, he chances to catch sight of the beady. yellow eye, the man will be keen observer indeed who detects anything different in that little heap from others an ths surrounding waste

bishops, priests. monkss nuns anM thousands Of the faithful. What need to ask if Patricks work will endure? L call upon the sun that rises from the east in the pink of the morn1ng and sees at it's setting all the things of the world and men, to answer the question. And if he could speak in the tongue of man, he would reply: -"I have seen the harvest and the srpdngtime tince Patrick entered the palaces of Tara for the first time; have seen the matchless fruit of the seed that he sowed; have seen a hun dred of his apostles teaching through the length and breadth of Europe, and whining for Ireland the name of the isae of saints and scholars; l have seen his children in the time of blood and fear faithful to his teaching and his words; and have seen thousands sent forth helpless and homeless to the east and the west yet ever trusting in the God that rules and overrules; have seen monasteries robbed, con- vents sacked and abbies razed to the ground; have seen brave people down trodden and desolate for centuries, but always faithful to the teachings of Patrick; l have seen hundreds of them leaving their native land, wan dering homeless about all countries of the earth; I have seen one hundred of them occupying episcopal sees in America, ruling over 1O,OOOOOO of people. All these things I have seen aud many more and say that the Christian history of Ireland is unique Unique because she has always been the persecuted and never the perse- cutor.
 In concluding his rmarl1s Father Duggan said that the children of Ire land were fortunate in their ancestors. They and their children should remain true to their faith, and the glory of Ire lands sun would grow brighter and brighter until 1t would be obsecured no longer by any cloud or mist.
