In recording an Hines of hie grand

The Unknown Palisades,

The edge of the world, If such
thing may be, lies hardly a rifle shot
away from one of the centres of the
world itself-the city of New York.
The Palisades, those mighty walls,
whereon the annals of the centuries
arc graved-what an edge of the
world their lip presents to him who
comes, perhaps at night, to their
rough-newn elevaton. In no pace
other than this Lear proximity to
man and one OF his greatest cities
could physical feature so profound
ly. vast and impressive be hidden
from the world; and yet the Pali-
sades are almost unexploited and un-
known to the globe-circling, sight
hunting public that .'early traverses
the continents or seas to gaze at
things less wonderful in some dis
tant field oil Natures marvellous
achievements. For little does any
one know of these Titanic walls who
mas merely seen them from the Hud-
son. Were they somewhere off in
land comparatively inaccessible,
reached by transcontinental thread
or steel, the guide books would be
rich in their pictured grandeur and
man would rove far to explore them.

GROW STEALS W0MANS HAT
lmpaled on the Pin, Meeting
Traulc Fate.

Jacksonville, N. J.-When Big Ben.
a crow that has been here for the last
five summers, made his temperance,
Mrs. Josiah Sprague had no thought
that his advent presaged the loss OF
her new hat and her favorite house
cat. Mrs. Sprague bought a hat in
Paterson about two weeks ago. 1t
wasn't radical in shape or style, but
IL was bright, attractive piece of
headgear, and one of its appurten.
ances was a long pin. with a shiny
silver knob at the end.
On Friday afternoon Mrs. Sprague.
returning from visit, laid her hat on
chair on the front porch. Three
minutes after II was missing. She
heard a noise on the porch when she
was in the house. but II was slight and
she could not believe it had anything
to do with the disappearance of the
hat. Besides, her hired man. WHO
was at work in the garden. had seen
no one enter or leave the house. The
hat disappeared as mysteriously as
If the wings in the trimmings had car
ried it away. Yesterday morning
rrixie. the cat, which never wandered
far away, also disappeared. Mrs.
SDrague began to believe there was
something uncanny about the house.
She and several neighbors made a
thorough but vain search for both the
headpiece and the household pet. To-
day the hired man, who was in the
woods back of Mrs. Sprague's home.
solved the mystery. On a high tree
he noticed gray plume floating
above above a basket-like affair that
seemed TO be fixed between two limbs
twenty feet from the ground.
The hired man Skinned up the tree.
and found Mrs. Sprague's missing hat
and cat. tragic fate had befallen
Trixie, however, for she was impaled
on the long hat pin that stuck through
the hat. The man scrambled down
from the tree with the dead pussy and
and the hat in his arm. AS he did
so Big Ben. the crow, and bird with
duller plumage. evidently his mate.
circled about him with angry cries. as
II to prevent him from making off
with his trophies. The presence of
the two crows showed that Big Ben
stole the hat so he and his mate would
have a ready-made nest. The death
Of the cat is easily explained. 1t is

ence for Big Ben's rights. espied the
crows in their new nest on the night
the hat disappeared. Stealthily climb
Ing up the tree. the cat must have
made a spring for the crows. He
reckoned without the presence of the
sharp hat pin. The badly clawed con-
dition Of the hat indicated the cat
struggled deperately to escape before
1t died. Big Ben and his mate sat dis
consolately on an upper limb OF the
tree to-day. finding it difficult to make
up their minds to begin the building
of real nest. Mrs. Sprague, too. is
disconsolate for the loss of the hat
and the cat in the same day.

How the Frog Changes Color.

The chameleon changes his hue
with his environment. A short time
ago who could venture to point out
all the molecular and ethereal vibra-
tons whereby the chain of action is
made complete between external en-
vironment and peripheral tissue
change? Yet Sollaud found that the
Elementary changes by virtue of
which the frog harmonizes itself more
or less with the color of its environ.
ment are governed by two sorts of
nerves. 1t results from the action of
two reflexes, both originating in the
retina; and by his investigations he is
able to map out the paths from the
brain to the periphery by each OF the
refiexes. Now let us picture to our
selves the delicacy of this process.
First, the green foliage, causing vibra-
tons in the ether in certain wave
lengths, sets up certain molecular vi
brations in the retina, which, trans
lated to the brain, issue forth at the
periphery in such form that neither
the skin nor the pigment granules in
II are changed irreversibly, but Ger.
tain molecular combinations are made
for the time. or certain intramolecular
changes of the atomic structure are
set up In the pigment for the time, by
virtue OF which proptective color is
given to the animal.
