TELEPATHY AMONG ANIMALS

Birds and beasts receive information through
the medium of earth vibrations, John d. Quack-
@nbos M D., writes In the North American Re
view. Certain game birds and animals are sensi-
tive to the faintest earth tremor, and are ap-
preached only by the hunter who steps slowly
and carefully without Earring the surface of the
ground. The nature of the vibrations also con-
veys a notion of the direction from which the
danger is coming, and wild game depend as much
on their apprehension of this as upon detection
by the ear. When 1t comes to cosmic vibrations,
the subtle movements communicated to the
earth's crust by the tides or the pull OF heavenly
bodies animals are mysteriously affected as to
appetite, sleep. nervous poise and possibly pro-
creation and migration.

charged by the gun operator. forty-ive shots had
hit the mark. The other five shots, the gunner
explained had been sent into nearby fish-pond
In order that he might get, by the splash OF the
water an instantaneous report OF the accuracy
of his aim. The fact that this was the first time
the gun had been taken aloft, together with the
trueness of the aim shown by the examina-
tion of the target spoke emphatically then and
there of the great possibilities of fleets of aero

sound of the explosion tells that the gun has been
fired. There is no reco and the gun is bal
anced by the magazine that the aim is not even
interrupted while the gun is being fired. 1t can
be fired at as high rate as $50 shots a minute,
but the rate may be reduced to $50 shots per
minute, to any number between these limits,

trolling the admission of the gas to the piston

lily of firing would soon overhead the barrel Of
the gun and render it temporarily useless. One
of the distinguishing features of the gun. how
ever is device whereby the barrel is kept con-
