The Star Chamber.

Perhaps the most beautiful and origi-
nal scene Of all In Mammoth cave Is
the star chamber At point In the
well defined path one comes to the
brow Of gentle declivity and notes
that the roof Of folded or fretted lime
stone had disappeared. The darkness
Is impervious TO the rays Of the lamps.
''The star chamber" announces the
guide, and, bidding his visitors to put
their lights out and to look up, he dis
appears up a side passage. Slowly the
darkness above lightens a little; then
stars come out one by one and twinkle
merriIy as in a real sky. A comet
shoots across the line Of vision; then
the glory Of the Milky Way appears
The illusion is perfect and the explana-
Hon not far TO seek.
The ceiling is heavily coated with
manganese dioxide and has been
pierced here and there with snowy
crystals of gypsum. The guides go be-
hind this ceiling, and the light from
their lamps produces the effect Of
miniature armament with the crystals
Of gypsum for stars.-New York Post.

BiRps' TONGUES
Why tho Parrot 10 AbIe 70 initiate Hu-
man Speech.


man Speech.
One Of tbe government naturallsts
nt Washington has recently gathered
some fresh information concerning the
tongues OF birds.
Many people suppose that woodpeck-
ers use their sharp pointed tongues as
darts with which to transfx their
prey. 1t is true that the woodpecker,
like the humming bird, can dart out its
tongue with astonishing rapldity and
that IT'S mouth is fwnished with an
elaborate mechanism for this purpose.
yet. according to the authority men
toned, investigation shows that the
object Of this swift motion is only TO
catch the prey. not to pierce It. For
the purpose OF holding the captured
victim the woodpeckers tongue is fur
nlshed with a sticky secretion.
Considering its powers Of initiating
speech, It is not surprising to learn
that the parrots tongue resembles that
OF man more closely than any other
birds. II is not because the parrot is
more intelligent than the other birds,
but because Its tongue is better suited
for articulation than theirs, that It is
able to amuse us with its mimicry.
The humming birds tongue is In
some respects the most remarkable OF
all II Is double nearly from end e
end, so that the little bird is able &C
grasp its insect prey with It's tongue
much as II its mouth was furnished
with a pair Of fngers.-Chicago Rec

A Harmless Animal That Viii Fight
Hard When at Bay.
A peculiar looking animal is the
ant eater, which Is closely allied to
the sloth family. It's head is drawn
out into a long. tubular muzzle. at the
end OF which Is a tiny mouth just big
enough to permit the exit OF its long,
wormlike tongue, which is covered
with a sticky saliva.
This tongue is thrust among the
hosts Of ants with great rapidity, com
ing back laden with the tiny insects.
To obtain in prey the ant eater breaks
open the ant hills, when all the active
inhabitants swarm to the breach and
are instantaneously swept away by the
remorseless tongue.
The jaws Of the ant eater are entire
ly without teeth, and the eyes and
ears are very small.
There are several species Of ant eat.
er. the largest kind being about -four
feet long and having a tail covered
with very long hair, forming huge
brush. The claw on the third toe OF
each fore limb is OF great size and is
used for breaking open ants and Other
insects nests.
Generally speaking. the ant eater Il
a harmless animal, but at times wher
