THE EYES OF THE EAGLE.
Why Birds Of Prey Are Enabled te
Care at the Sun.

You have all heard, no doubt, that
the eagle, the hawk and other birds OF
prey can look directly at the sun with
out being dazzled by its light II they
had not this peculiar power they
would he seriously handicapped In
their search for food.
They do not. however. look at the
sun with eyes In their normal condi
ton. Nature has provided them with
a thin skin, or membrane. inside the
eyellds, which they can draw down at
viii over the ball OF the eye, thus pro
tecting II, but not seriously interfering
with Its sight
But this is not the only provision
that nature has made for their eyes
They have the power OF adjusting the
focus NO that they can see as well al
a great distance as they can hear the
object.
There Is another unique provision
that nature has made for birds about
which questions are often asked, and
that IA their ability TO maintain their
hold on the perch when they are
asleep. Many persons suppose that u

II ia not that al all Running from
the claws up into the leg are certain
little tendons which contract or
shorten when the bird is sitting. The
shortening OF the tendons gathers In
the claws 70 that they grasp the perch.
aud the grasp will not relax Until the
bird resumes its standing position.

make II seven. There are twenty-four
OF the diamond shaped parts, and as
you can see three sides OF each cell in
each case 1t would seem that there
should be eight cells. but II Is believed
that seven is the highest number that
the eye can seem to see.
This Illusion is a result of the faculty
the eye has OF imagining relief or so
lidity TO objects pictured In this way in
perspective. The moment you glance
at this picture your eye assumes that
IL represents certain number OF solid
cubes or blocks or cells. You may see
three IN the bottom row, two In the
next ard one at the top. or you may
see two In the bottom row. three In the
middle and two at the top, Calling
them six, II you look away for an in
slant and then east your eye again on
the picture you may this time see them
as seven. The way the cells or blocks
shift back and forth is most exasper
ating, and the will power seems TO
have little control over it.--Pathfnder.
