Deceived by a Cloud.

The instinct of animals is sometimes
supposed to be more infallible than
human reason, but a scientists obser-
vations of the katydid rather contra
dict that opinion. The katydid. with
its musical membranes, produces two
distinct songs" one peculiar to the
night and familiar to everybody. the
other a daytime tune. which is rather
a rasp than a melody. According to
the scientist mentioned. it is sometime s
quite comical to hear the singers sud,

cloud obscures the sun. Immediately

line between Bulgar and Serb in the
eighth century. Here the Serbs dwelt
more or less uneventfully for three
