eupsrst;tions About Harmless Little
Animal.

oupsrstitions About . harmless Little
Animal.
The shrew, or shrewmouse, az It is
commonly called, is found In nearly all
parts Of the world 1t Is distinguished
by an elongated, pointed muzzle, small
eyes. plantigrade. six toed feet and
glands that secrete musky fluid. Al
together It closely resembles mouse
but 1t Is really not related to the mouse
family.
When at home 1t Is either under q
pile of rubbish or In hole which It
has burrowed in the earth. It Is noe
turnal In its habits. but perfectly harm
less. Yet Mt one time It was much dis
liked and prosecuted because It was
thought to be dangerous. mischievous
animal. Among the Italians the notion
was prevalent that the bite of shrcw
was extremely poisonous. The French
and the English believed that II q
shrcw ran over an animals foot the
animal felt great pain and eventually
became paralyzed; hence II horse,
q COW or a goat became a little stiff In
its limbs the foolish people at once de-
clared It "shrew struck" and the poor
shrcws had to suffer in consequence.
OF course the "shrew struck" animal
had to have something to cure 1t, SO an
ash tree was selected and deep hole
was bored into its trunk. Then a
shrew was dbtured, put alive into tho
hole. the hole was securely plugged.
and the innocent little animal was left
to die OF starvation.
The ignorant believed that after
such an act the ash tree had power to
cure "shrew struck" animals, and
whenever an animal became inactive
or n little numb In its limbs It's owner
hurried to the 'shrcw ASH" cut a
switch from It and switched the
"shrew struck" beast. The smarting
caused by IL switching naturally
made the hsl eess animal move about
az much as It possibly could. and In q
short time It was pronounced Cured"

A married couple we're crossing ooe
Of the great glaciers Of the Alpine re
gions when fatal accident occurred.
The husband fell down one Of the huge
cfevasses which abound on all glaciers.
The rope broke, and the depth Of the
chasm was SO great that no help could
be rendered, nor could the tody be re-
covered. Over the wife's anguish at
her loss we must draw the veil Of ST.

them at the time Of the accident, stay

be expected to appear, expelled from
the mouth Of the torrent about that

coustancy they watched and waited.
and their hopes were at last rewarded.
One day the body was released from
