The night hath a thousand eyes, but

an experimenter has, taken a micro

the eyes of the plant. Many common

ANIMAL INTELLIGENCE.
The Difference Between Instinct and
Reasoning Power.


Reasoning Power.
Most animals have little self con-
sciousness, and their reasoning po,vcvs
at best are of low order, but IN Kind
at least the powers are not different
from reason in man A horse reaches
over tile fence to be company 10 an
other. This is instinct When 1t lets
down the bars with its teeth, that Is
reason. When a dog finds its way
home at night by the sense of smell.
this may be instinct; when he drags u
! stranger to his wounded master, that
Is reason. When jack rabbit leaps
over a bush to escape a dog or runs in
a circle before a coyote, or when it
lies fat in the grass as round ball of
gray indistinguishable from grass,
this is instinct But the same animal
Is capable of reason-that is of a dis
tinct choice among lines OF action. Not
long ago rabbit came bounding across
the university campus at Palo. Alto.
AS 1t passed corner it suddenly siaced
two hunting dogs running side by side
toward it. 1t had the choice Of turn
ing back, its first instinct, but a dan.
gerous one; of 3leaping over the dogs
or Of lying on the ground. 1t chose
none Of these, and its choice was in

The Lady In the Moon.

An amateur astronomer writes of the
''1ady III tie moon" ''It is a very beau
tiful face seen in profile and uplifted,
as though in proud disdain of things
terrestrial. The curve of the throat is
exquisite, and indeed the entire outline
is marvelously slifelike. The moon
lady may best be observed through a
small opera glass when our satellite is
at half. At that time the tip of the
chin about touches the terminator-

light and dark portions Of the lunar
surface. Most people can recognize
the man in the moon. Well, the hair

An Unhappy Comparison,
