How Jams Play Ken.

In its most widely practiced form the
basis Of the japanese game of ken is
,hat the fully outstretched hand sig
nifies paper, the fully closed hand a
stone, and two fingers alone extended
the rest being closed, scissors. Each
of the players. counting one, two, three,
throws out his hand at the moment OF
pronouncing three, and the one whose
manual symbol is superior TO that of
the others, according 10 the theory of
the game, wins the trial.
Superiority is determined on the
hypothesis that whereas scissors can
not cut q stone they can cut paper, and
whereas paper is cut by scissors 1t can
wrap up a stone Consequently scis-
sors is inferior TO stone, but conquers
paper; stone is inferior to paper, but
conquers scissors. and paper is inferior
TO scissors, but cOnquers stone There
are innumerable varieties of the game,
for it is not a mere method of deter
mining a dispute or priority, and they
are constantly added to 10y ingenious
young ladies, the dancing girl class es-
pecially, who play it with exquisite
grace and iudicious enhancement Of
beautiful hands and arms.-Japan

SINGS ITS DEATH SONG.
Peculiar Bird Found In the jun
giles of south America.

There is queer bird in the jungles
Of northern South America which is
called the paul. by the natives, but
is known TO science as the galcated
curasson. II is chiefly remarkable be-
cause it sings its own death song.
1t does not really sing, but makes a
deep humming noise which sounds
very much like the Spanish words "El
muerto esta aqui" the corpse lies here).
1T is Willie uttering this lugubrious
chant" said South American travel
or, that the paul. usually meets its
death, for the hunter can then easily
track il TO its retreat, and il falls a
victim, as the Indians say, TO its own
death song"
If the paul" gets suspicious 1t i'm
medately ceases humming. and that is
a sure indication TO the hunter that
the bird has seen him or scents dan
ger In such a case the only thing for
the sportsman 10 do is TO remain per
fectly still The bird may become re-
assured after waiting awhile and again
begin to call. "The corpse lies here II
can then be cautiously approached and
killed.
If it is only wounded the "pauji" usu-
ally escapes. though it cannot fly much
better than the ordinary domestic
fowl. 1t is very feet of foot and will
outrun the hunter until it is lost in the
dense underground of the jungle.
In the mating season the male ''pauji'
is tho most Du0nacious of birds and
will fight its own kind whenever it
meets them. often the fight ends In
ihe humiliation Of both combatants.
