The Ears of Insects.

Simply because a bee has no ears on
the sides OF it's head it is no sign what
ever that it is wholly without some
sort of an auditory nerve. This is
proved by the fact that grasshoppers,
crickets, locusts and flies all have their
ears situated in queer places-under
the wings, on the middle of the body
and even on the sides q their legs.
The common house fly does it's hear
ing by means Of some little rows Of
eorpuscles which are situated on the
knobbed threads which occupy the
place which are taken up by the hind
wings of other species of insects. The
garden slug or shelless snail has it's
organs of hearing situated on each
side of it's neck, and the common
grasshopper has them on each of its
broad, fiat thighs. La some of the
smaller insects they are at the bases
Of the wings and in others on the bot
tom Of the feet

Among freaks of nature in trees there
stands conspicuous one known as the
Asiatic star tree. 1t is enormously
tall, growing to a height of from sixty
feet to eighty feet, while from the
ground up to a distance of about forty
feet the trunk is perfectly bare. From
that point there spring a number of
tangled limbs, which shoot out clusters
of long, pointed leaves, and it is these,
grouped together, that emit at night a
clear, phosphorescent light. This gives
the tree a spectral appearance and is
very deceiving to travellers, who fire.
quently mistake the glow for an illu-
minated window of house The light
is not brilliant, but is of sufficient
strength to allow of newspaper be-
ing read by it. 1t does not flicker, but
CLOVIS steadily from sunset to day
break.
