HlBERNATION.
How and Why Some Animals Exist All
Winter Without Food,


The philosophy or nature Of hiber-
nation and why and how 1t Is that the
alternating creatures can go so long
without food are interesting studies.
In the first place, the creature in or
der to enable 1t to sustain life through
out the long winter during which it
hibernates is endowed with the capac-
ity Of accommodating within its body a
large quantity of fat. This fat Is to the
animal what well stocked coal cellar
Is to fire, and until the whole of 1t
has been consumed the tissue Of the
body proper remains untouched 1t
has been ascertained that animals can
endure the waste Of tissue until it
amounts to 40 per cent of their normal
weight. Should the weight be reduced
beyond that point the result is death
But nature comes to the rescue of the
alternating creatures In another way
When the Information begins, respira-
ton and digestion almost cease Tin
some cases they cease absolutely, and
the circulation is only just active
enough to sustain life. AS conse-
quence Of this the wear and tear is re-
duced to the minimum, and the crea-
ture Is enabled to pull through.-New
York American.
