Birds and Liuhtninu,

Birds are sometimes struck by light ming. Darwin records the case of a wild duck that he saw struck by a bolt while flying. It was killed in stantly and fell to the ground. But birds seem to know instinctively that lightning is to be feared. That per- haps is why they seek shelter in thun- derstorms The sudden disappearance of the birds is, indeed, in the country one of the surest signs of an approach ing tempest.-Philadelph Bulletin.
