ANIMAL LANGUAGE.
Sounds and Gestures That Take the
 Place of Speech.

Sounds and Gestures That Take the
 Place of Speech.
 A sound or gesture made by an ami mal under any mental or emotional impression and calling out a similar one in another animal is an element of language. When the rabbit quickly bea,s the ground, its fellow rabbits know that there is danger somewhere, and they take action accordingly. That Is rabbit language When the hunter initiates the rabbit and thus conveys the same ideas, he is speaking" the rabbit language for the time being. Many animals use signs, which of course are understood through tie eyes. The ants converse by touching anteunR and feet Many insects rub the elytra. This is animal language in its simplest form. It expresses but few ideas. But there are animals which are capable of modulating their voices"
 Even the common rabbits, which seem to be mute, are constantly mak ing sounds, which little observation will soon discover to be ever changing in volume, mOdulation. etc. Much Of lhis method of communication changes when the animal Is brought into civ, llzation from the wild sJUte. The wild dog. for instance, barks very little when in freedom. How the household dog barks and is able to express him self Is well known.

MEMS HATS TN KOREA.
The Reason They Are Wide Trimmed,
 Wigh and Fragile.

The Reason They Are Wide Brimmed,
 WiEh and Fragile.
 Ina lSrture on Korea, Burton Holmes, speaking of the mems hats, said:
 Though Korea and especially Seoul has many foreigners and the people have become accustomed to strangers, they adhere closely to their curious costumes, the hat being the most im- preSsive part of the garb. The Korean gentleman never removes his hat in the presence of company, either in the house or outside The hat must be worn constantly during waking hours.
 "The hat consists of a wide brim and a crown high enough to contain the topknot. The hats are made of many materials and vary in price fpoTa s to S4O. Their form dates back to a time. centuries ago, when a king who was fearful of plots and cOnspiracies de yised the head wear as a protection agalnst his noble enemies. If men could not get their heads together. he argued, they could not engage in a conspiracy, so he Issued an edict com polling his cOurtiers to wear hats with gigantic brims. Then in order to pre- vent fighting on the street he ordered that these hats be made of a thin porcelain. In case of a fight the hat would certainly be broken. This would necessitate explanations from the nO- bleman, and street rows were thereby ended.
 Though the hats are no longer made of porcelain, they are sufficiently frag- lie to be broken if the wearers engage in any violent demonstrations"
