Bird JekylI and Hyde.

The eatbird is our northern mock Ing bird. When love attunes it's voice 1t can warble as sweetly as the night ingale. You must catch it in one of its melting moods If you would know the charm of its liquid notes. It is not at all beautiful-no more is the mocking bird - only a gray-brown. perky, restless thing, of lesser size than the robin, with the soul of song in it.
 The wonder of the catbird lies. of course, in this, It's dual nature. At one time it hops about screeehing com plaints against the circumambient air: at another there throbs out from it's delicate throat the essence of a divine melody-Philadelphia Press

amins a Wild Horse.

They will not submit to mans rule and are therefore unservieeable. They become badly frightened when man approaches nearer than two or three rods of them.
 The Russians claim that by methods of comparative anatomy and in other ways they have proven that the Gobi desert horse is a distinct species sf the genus horse. The mane, forelock and tail are not un- like the domestic animal, and. like them, they neigh and snort. Most naturalists have, until now, believed that the true wild horses with an unbroken line of wild ancestry were extinct.
 It is the general opinion that the domestic horse of today was mainly derived from three wild species. which nave been named the steppe, forest and plateau varieties The Gobi horse Is representative of the steppe variety. This horse in its wild state lives in the level districts and goes at night to the pasture lands and drinking places. At break of day 1t returns to the desert, where it rests until sunset
 When there are nursing colts in the herd the animals always rest In the same place. They usually walk one behind the other, so that the region where they live is covered with deep tracks.
