Animals experience no grief what
ever over the death Of one of their

possibly the most astute student of
animal life in this country. He de-
clares that when a bird seems to
mourn its lost mate its act is probably
the outcry OF the breeding instinct
which has been thwarted He says that
all creatures understand the language
of distress, and he has observed that
birds have often warned four footed
animals Of danger, but, he says. this,
too, is instinct and not because Of sem
timent. sympathy as we know it,
he says, 1.-THE keen appreciation Of the
suffering and misfortune Of another.
